Dr. H. A.

R. Kingston will give an illustrated lecture on ‘The Wonderful Heavens.’ The diamond jubilee services of the Main Street United Church on Sunday were highly pleasing and successful, Many former members of, the congregation from distant points were present and joined in the services of worship. The aud itorium was filled 'both morning and evening. At the evening service every available space was taken up. Rev. W. H. Graham, of Hamilton, was the special speaker for the day and the music throughout was ex ceptionally fine, the choir being as sisted by Mrs. Edna Hearts, of Tor onto, who sang a solo morning and evening and also by Mrs. Alma Welker, of .Kitchener, who .played several selections on a very beauti ful harp and who- sang at all .ser vices. Miss Evelyn ‘Huston, presided at the organ while Miss Ruth Wild- fong accompanied on the ipiano. The Caven congregation withdrew' their morning seryice and with their minister, Rev. J.„B\ Rhodes, united with the Main St. congregation. In the evening the service was with drawn in the James' Street church.. Rev. Mr. Graham delivered- two very inspiring and thought-provok-* ing sermons. In the evening he took his text from' He,b. 13; 8, “Jesus, Christ, the same yesterday, to-day and forever’’ his theme being that Christ is a contemporary of modern life. He is a contemporary of the modern business life and belongs* to the social relationships. .He is link ed up with all activities from child hood to old age. Jesus- not only belongs to the distant past but is present' here. That is where we need a revival of religion. Jesus is concerned about modern affairs and dwells in modern hearts. Whatever may be our theology it misses the mark unless it brings us to the con clusion that God is living; that he is living in the environment that we live in, and is concered in what is. going on. The idea of some is that Jesus Christ is a sort of lost absentee lea der but Jesus Christ is The same, yesterday, to-day and forever.
