EPWORTR LEAGUE ANNIVERSARY
Last Sabbath the anniversary ser-
mons of the Epworth League of Brns-
eels Methodist Church were preached
by Rev. George Dewey, of Strat-
ford, and were profitable, enjoyable
and will not soon be foegotton. This
was Rev. Mr. Dewey's first visit to
Brussels and he will be very welcome
bank.
Psalm 116, Verse 12 was the text
chosen for the morning service,
"What shall I render unto the Lord
for all His benefits Y° from which a
very practical discourse was preach-
ed. Stock -taking is a gond business
principle as it shows true acuditions.
A review of the past is often a wonder -
1M help. Some of the benefits em-
phasized by the preacher were (1) The
Church. It cements friendship ;
sweetens Moue life ; sets the standard
of Righteousness •
helps sweep away
materialism. (2) The Sabbath. IC
benefits the spilt; life ; opens the God
side of our being. (3) The Bible.
Stand by the Church. Patents and
other adults should heartily support
the Ilpwnrth Leagues and Sabbath
Schools by their presence, sympathy
and financial euppnl't.
"Wilt ye not. LAW. I must be about
mp Father's business e" Luke land
49, was the foundation for the evening
sermon, the theme being "Partner-
ship with God." The graduation
necessary is B. A., Born Again. In-
vestments suggested were Love,
Pra.yee, employment of our hands,
feet and voice. Success is based on
the regularity, punctuality and en-
thusiasm put into the business.
Terms and returns are right, large
dividends being paid,. Sermon should
prove most helpful, Rev. Mr. Dewey
is not only an extra good preacher
but has a marked talent for music and
favored the con$•regatiou with two
well sung solve, singing in the morn-
ing "I shall not be moved" and in the
evening "0 ! what a change." The
choir also did their part well and the
day was ono that will carry with it a
happy retrospect as the months pass
by.
Despite the stormy weather on Mon-
day a goodly audience assembled ire
the evening for the musical and liter-
ary program and nobody was sorry
they were in attendance. Chair was
occupied by the pastor, Rev. D. Wren,
who piloted the ;migrant in a pleasant
manner. After devotional oxereises
Miss Isabel Mb:atc+tu(n sate a choice
sola men. acceptably t Mrs,
Parker
gave a broad Stinker citaion
in real
Hellen stylet sola, Rev, 51i'. Dewey,
".Che old fashioned way" was well
sung ; huuloron, recitation, Miss
Vera Hoover found favor ; and Miss
Addle Cardiff rendered a patriotic solo
with good effect. The speaker of the
evening, Rev. Me. Dewey, then took
the platform and for upwards of an
;IAN handled his subject ;—"We Love,
Vent Love, They Love," to elle plea-
sure and profit of all+ With humor,
pathos, hard facts, etcmn'ag(ng
Instratious and practical hints for ap-
plication to inlman life the speaker
showed that Love was the foundation
Of character ; Would keep people
young ; Develop mirage ; Underlies
success ; Refoems character ; Endures.
Words fail 1(1 deerrile the lecture but
it was certainly excellent from start
to finish. At the close a specially
tasty 100011 was served. Proceeds
Were over $21,00.
Under the f,tifdnfttl Presideltey of
Mies Olat•a limiter, backed up by a
staff of twilling °.beers the Epworth
League is doing a bonetieial work in
the church and this should he s41mu-.
