Mr. Foote based his remarks on the tent "Am I my brother's keeper." He stated that it was easy to dwell in a community and not know some of the influences that were at work. One may be acquainted with the churches, the educational instate - tons, the business of the community, but he will not -know the "community until he knows something of the work : of: tixe secret societies. The Church -v ti as a .secret societyin its beginning. In times of persecution christens were under the necessity of secrecy. Not tcf believe in sec- recy is not to believe in one's soul, or God himself who is veiled in Sec- recy. There are secret societies or- ganized for selfish purposes and crime; but there are ether secret societies in which; religioneand hum- anity are the great prxneip"ies.. Oddfellowship began iii England in 1745 and to -day in the United States and Canada the membership harry years in earlier life a member numbers in tlxe millions. Its Prins-( of the choir and teacher of the Sun- iples are founded on the Father- day School. She was a fond mother hood of God and the brotherhood ,,f to herchildren and a faithful wife, roan and there is great need in the and the .immediate' family will feel world fpr such a brotherhood. On their return to the lodge room a vote of thanks was tendered to Mr. Foote, the choir, the orchestra and the Board of Management of the church, LET VS HELP `YOU TO SEE BETT Need of glasses is why many. child-.
