Last Sunday was one of intense
interest at both services. 1t was the
last Sunday in the Conference year
and the congregations at both SER
vices were large. The choir had
prepared appropriate music for the
occasion, consisting of anthems and
at the morning hour Miss Heloise
Hebert rendered a piano solo; and
at night Mrs. T. P. Bell violin solo.
At the morning hour, the Pastors
text was Hebrews 1914 For here we
have no continuing city, but we seek
one to come. He took occasion to
refer to the fact that he was finish
ing his twenty fifth appointment as
Methodist minister. He recounted
briefly the various appointments that
he had filed; among these years were
four while handling the Orphanage
at Ruston. He emphasized the
! fact that the first part of the text
was self evident to anyone; and that
it did not take long for us to learn
that we did not stay here long. That
on All Saints Day all could have the
same lesson of mortality. The un.
believer could see that as he visited
the graves of his loved ones, but il
took the eye of faith to look beyond
the tomb and see the eternal city

know that if our earthly house Of
this tabernacle were dissolved we
have a building of God, house not
made with bonds eternal in the heav-
ems" or to cry with Job XIX 1921,
Il know that my Redeemer liveth,
and that he shall stand at the later
day upon the earth; and though
after my skin worms destroy this
body, yet in my flesh shall see God;
whom l shall see for myself and not
another" 1t is a great privilege to
call me from the fleeing and pass
ing things to eternal things. Perhaps
the expression used by Jacob Genesis
1920 expresses the sentiment And
Jacob served seven years for Rachael;
and they seemed unto him but a
few days, for the love he had to her"
SO when one is privileged to serve
the Master and has great love for
him how swiftly the days and years
pass away. 1t is glorious to serve.

place in his plan and programme.
