The message was., an appeal for courage, purposeand conviction with regard Io the Christian faith. The Pastor referred to Daniel's association with Melzar, and the three kings --Nebuch- adnezzar, ' Belshazzar and Darius. Daniels' resolution in regard to his diet was one of the means of stren- ghtening.his character and fitting him for future greatness.

OUR 'KINSFOLK "DOWN UNDER" help you some other to win. ` As in the life of'this great•Hebrew,'Daniel, a resolution manfully carried: out is often the tturning,point in a man's life. We certainly see a spiritual quartet in Daniel, Shadrach Meohach.and Ab- ednego. . The secret of their lives.lay in. the fact of their conviction of soul when they said;;; "Our God in whom we trust is able to deliver us,". A pleasant and helpful feature of the ser- vice was the singing of "Dare to be a Daniel"' by several young men of Mr. Cooke's Sunday School'Class. The, minister `addressed the people in Lydia "The Business Woman at 'Prayer" ; at the evening service. The sermon was an attempt to find in tl�.e` life stogy of Lydia some modern in terpreta'tion of the spirittiai outlook today. The. story as recorded in Acts GORRIE Mr. Earl .
