Prof. l. H. Meredith, a song writer
and composer, OF New York. led the
chorus and the congregational sing
ing in many new songs.
Mr. Tullar based his sermon on
the first verse of the first chapter OF
Genesis: In the Beginning God"
In opening his sermon the speaker
said "the things in life we get
by contrast. and we think in con-
trast. When I say the word day
there is the suggestion in mind Of
the word night When / say
wealth there may be the suggestion
of the word poverty So when. l
say in the beginning OF God / sug-
gest that there is an ending. What
will than ending be? No prophet is
needed to tell. for what finds its be-
ginning in God will be perfect.
Everything that God has done
is perfect. while that which the
devil has done will be a failure"
The speaker referred to the inability
OF man to make flower, or a blade
of grass. It may be possible to
make It so perfect that it will fool
men, he asserted, but It will not
fool God. Just as God is not fool
ed by imitation OF the things made
by mankind, so he is not fooled by
the sham Of some people, the speak
er declared.
Mr.. Tullar closed his sermon by
making a plea that every person
should lead clean lives without
flaws
