(1 John, 2 : 15). From this test he y preached a sermon of interest and pro- fit, drawing a clear-cut line between the meaning of the worldly and the unworldly and showing the value of unworldly life. While not at all flow- ery the language had many excellent characteristics, such as simplicity, clearness and logical sequence. The sermon was not one of the class that appeal to the feelings and create sen- sations, but it was directed toward the mind and appealed very strongly to the reason. It was just such a sermon as will leaye a lasting impression on the minds and hearts of the thinking hearers. The choir rendered appro- priate music on both occasions.
