After se�ieratl weeks devoted to re-
decorating the innterior of the Cavern
Presbyterian Church, the re -opening
services took ,place on Sunday last.
Colonel, the. Riey. William Beattie,
of the First Pres:byberien. Church, Lon-
don, was the special preacher for the
occanilion, and 1 e preached interesting
and instructive sermons morning and
evening. Dr. Beattie its a very log -
rand'c i
a, forceful preacher, and his
sermons were lstened; to with marked
attention.
Following his usual custom in the
morning he first gave a dieliightfulser-
monette on "Consider the Lily" using
as an illustration a tiny flower he had
last summer pilucked from the. mount-
ain side in Switzerland, and compared
the care given. it by God, to the at-
tention needed to be given to the
ahildren in our homes.
His sermon on "The Trial of Christ"
in, the Court of Pilate was to masterly
,effort. After picturing the scene, he
temphasized thte fact that Christ, in
whom they could fined no fault, was
dumb when the prosecution asked
where were His disciples. The Lord
bad been deserted when be was in need
of the. backing of His followers„ Friom
this he pointed out the modern ten-
dency of 'the church people to bask
in the. warmth of the Church, to warm
themselves "by the brazier" as Peter
did, to shelter themselves in the pro-
tectien of tile. Church, but not to •
take ars active interest and part anthe
work of due 'Master, and 'even to deny
knowledge of Hien by word and act
Service, he said, do what the Church
needs, and he called for a more earn-
est and faithful service for God.
Large' congregations attended the R
services both morning and evening, and s
they were bright and interesting. The
choir gave special musical tum�bers and 1
were assisted in the evening by Mr. j a
William Sensor of Toromba, who sang i
very pleasingly. Th,e members of the!
choir were attired en their new gowns i d
