The missionary sermon by Rev. N
c, Benson on Sunday morning was
excellent. In the evening fine pro
gram was given under the direction
of the missionary supt, II. f. Mitten
The choir sang appropriate selec-
tions. Mr. Mitten gave an address,
choosing biblical references for his
material in which he set forth the
beginning of the work that has con-
tinued down through the ages. He
stressed the paramount Importance
of each person performing vital
part in the great cause. He was fol-
lowed by County Supervisor G. r.
Miller, Jr.. who gave a highly inter
esting talk of his own personal eX-
periences with the mountaineers of
the South. His language was so
beautifully descriptive of their Gus
toms, their loyalty and their laws
that the talk held all the fascination
OF an adventure. The methods and
means by which these people are
helped to receive an education to fit
them for service to the nation was
told in such a manner that our SYM
pathies were enlisted in another
cause for missions. Principal f. W.
Mick followed. His talk concerned
those at our very doors who need
the sweet influence of the gospel as
well as peoples in distant lands. Mr.
Mick is a forceful speaker and pre-
sents his arguments in a strong
light, clear-cut and convincing. The
last speaker was the pastor, Rev.
n. G Benson. He did not give the
talk he had prepared. Instead he
gave a summary from the addresses
of the previous speakers. 1t was u
skillful correlation given in whole
hearted simplicity and full of vigOr-
Gus, uplifting, thoughts The entire
service was one that will linger rich
in historical memories and a recon
secration to the cause of mission.
