Le :Bain -at Methodist church an anniver- a:i• mon was preached to the members Aeter Lodge of the T. O. O. F. on .se 'ahbath morning, April 21th, by the Wm. MoDonagh. The preacher s.,leetstl as his text the 2nd verse of tie tr it chapter of Galatians : " Bear ye one r's burdens, and so fulfil the law of (''•wrist." First he .drew attention to the Lee e.,.,itwe all have burdens to hear of v. +:.;:i kinds. He then showed that the m .fives of the teachings of the text were ;s ,- new, and that no such principle as :gee- :native effort among men, to aid each ( et, et their families, existed among Wren cram the teachings of the Bible and pity. He drew a historic picture, thiel and vivid, of the condition of the renew.: 'it working men tinier the govern - ea e. the greatest nations of the earth t time of the coming of Christ into the orld. Their slavery, their oppres. eines, and burdens heaped upon there by :' re bee 1 of power. He showed that the '°e -t; .eines of the gospel in inculcating love etonen man and man as brethren of one ;ewe.- en humanity in the selfeeacrificing newer of love was the real and true source �p *ll our benevolent efforts to help and aid each other in bearing the burdens of life. He also pointed out, from the activi- ties of Christ's life, that to arrange and carry out in action the precept of the text Was to do the will of God, for in helping those whom he esteemed as brethren in a common humanity, he did the will of bis .Father. He also showed this law of co- operation in aiding one another, to be Divine by true basis of thought, viz : fat, from the dignity of man as man. 2nd, love from one another is always disinter- ested service. 3rd, from the sympathetic feeling that men have a common destiny of service, a common destiny of death, and a common destiny of a splendid immortal- ity. The preacher in applying the subject showed that the great principleaunderlying the organization of Odd Fellowship were in. agreement with these teachings. He pointed out the vas+ beneficent influence and work of the Odd .Fellow's Society during the sixty-seven years of its work in Americapayingesu t o it s i does for the aid ,, , of the sick and their eix failr es at the rate of three millions of dollars annually.
