Husband and family, Mrs v The members of Exeter Lodge No. 67, Independent Order of Oddfellows celebrated the anniversary of the or­ der by attending Divine worship in Main St. church on Sunday evening. In spite of the inclement weather there was an excellnt turn-out, visit­ ing brethren being present from Hen- isall and Brucefiekl, The brethren paraded to the church being mar­ shalled by Bro. W, W. Taman. They occupied the centre pews. The pas­ tor Rev. C. J. Moorhouse, delivered a very eloquent and^ inspiring ser­ mon on “Friendship”” basing his re­ marks on the friendship) of Jonathan and David as found in I Sam. 20:42. The choir furnished excellent music, a quartette being sung by Messrs. F, Wildfong, Marvin Howey, Mrs. W, J; Beer and Miss Helen Dignan. ' / In opening his remarks the Pas­ tor said that there were some things Essential for perfect friendship. Real ftiends are not made by sunshine alone; in fact sunshine plays a., small part in the making of friendships. Were is no time when friendships dre begun and continued as in the days of adversity. r In the relationship between Jona­ than and, David ",we see prosperity pitted against adversity; wealth vs, poverty; power and influence against liumility.. Youth was linking itself iVith youth; the beauty of right was linking itself with righteousness. Jonathan, delighted not so much in iVealth, learning and position as he d|d in the friendship of David. Min­ isters of the gospel were not privi­ leged to gather .much of this world’s goods but they were rich-in the friendships they had formed. t When David went to meet Goliath Saul offered him his armoun but Da- 'yid preferred to go with the things he had proven. The slaying of Go­ liath was the beginning.^ David fol­ lowed’ up the warfare until the people sang that Saul had slain his thousands, but David Iiis tens of thousands. Saul, who aught to have b^en kingly and appreciated what Dayid had done, had given way to ’jeajously. What a terrible scourge jealously iri'tlfe Ti'eart.”" JoiiaQian delighted in David be­ cause' his had been a protecting friendship at the risk of his life and safety. There • were many years of hardship and training ahead of Da­ vid before he was to become king. Friend should protect friend. It is easy to start a scandal or slander but nothing will make it wither and die like sstanding behind a friend. . If friendship is to he abiding and ’true it must be spiritual. Take the story of the prodigal going out into the world with the resources of his father, but he went «own. Worldly friendships never lift men upwards. If it lifts up it must come with a spiritual setting. Jonathan and Da­ vid had the Lord witnessing and blessing their friendship on every hand. Jonathan knew that his-star was setting and that David’s was rising but he knew God would pro­ test. David’s misery, fear and trouble was just beginning. When hunted as a beast by Saul, David was strengthened by the thought of Jo­ nathan’s friendship. True friend­ ship will ignore wealth,’ learning, politics, and maybe the Church, to stand by a brother in his need. The need of brotherhood in the days that 9.1'6 before will be as great as any that have been, < Stand by right ev­ en though you may' lose money, prestige and friends. There were things in David's life Which made it possible for Jonathan to trust him. David, was clean in life, careful in language and stories. It takes a clean, wholesome and pure life to make a worth-while fi’iend. The vow between Jonathan and David was that the Lord” be between me and thee until the end; between my house and thy house forever. Jo­ nathan’s household 1‘eaped the re­ ward of David’s friendship. Along life’s pathway will be found heads b,ow6d and friends in .trial and need. Life will not have its kingly note Unless God leads through some path­ ways of trouble. Jesus was a man of sorrow and acquainted with grief. Get into the friendship of the Sav­ iour and you will understand the worthwhile of the sacrifice you can make for your friends. Truth can­ not be had apart from Christ, “I am the way, the truth and life*” Thd* friendship of Christ canuot be had cheaply or easily, but it will W; it is worthwhile. Stand by , what is right, noble and clean and you shall have* great delight in thfe day when, God says, “ft is enough^ come up higher.” On their return to th6 lodge a vote of thanks was tendered to the bttstor for his exceellent sermon, al­ so to the choir and tlie officials of the church.
