Dr. Larkin, of Seaforth, oc- cupied the pulpit of Me1ve11e church last Sabbath morning and evening, the pastor, Rev. F. G. Fowler, being in Seaforth. Sabbath morning Dr. Larkin took as his text Hebrews 12: 1, "Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of ,witnesses, let us run with patience the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith." In the text the speaker saw a picture in active human life; a picture with which we are all familiar; the picture of a race. In this race, all take part. and there is cooperation and not competition. To the winners in this race a prize is offered and the reward is a crown of life. We are called upon to excel in this race and to do this there is a sufficient incen- tive, looking unto Jesus, the author ttnd finisher of our Faith. In this race we are compassed about with a great cloud of witnesses, these are the faithful who have gone on be- fore, it may be a father, a mother or a child. They watch us from the other side and this is another incen- tive to excel in the race of life, At the evening service Dr. Larkin's text was I. Cor. 13:9 "For we_know in Part." The apostles gloried in the fact that they could say with assurance "we know," The apostles had a partial knowledge of God, but Chri t ish s the only one who had per- fect knowledge of God and who could reveal God perfectly to men. It is possible for us to know in whom we have believed and we may know with perfect assurance that there is a life beyond the grave. This con- fidence in God and in Christ has en- abled men to say in the flour of ad- versity "I know."- Today in the face of unbelief it is comforting to turn to the words of the Apostle Paul "I know." wore beautiful. To the bereaved the sympathy of the community goes out to them in their loss. 801600L REroam.-Following is the school report of S. S.
