ORANGE1VIEN ATTEND
DIVINE SERVICE
ST. PAUL'S CHURCH
prior to the celebration of the
"Glorious Twelfth" 75 members of
Murphy Lodge No 710 LOL, and Hur-
on Lodge No. 377, Lc/BA, attended
divine service in St. Paul's Anglican
°burgh Sunday evening, marching
to the Church from the Hall by way
of Ailiert and Ontario Sts.
Rev.- R. M. P. Bulteel, rector of
the church, preached the sermon, Mrs.
Bulteel sang a solo.
Taking his text from St. John 4:2,
"Thia commandment have we that he
Who loveth God, loveth his brother
also," the preacher said that it was
with a great deal of pride that he
welcomed all the members of the
Loyal Orange Lodge on the Sunday
previous to the great anniversary of
the Order. A wonderful Order, it
was one of the oldest, and was
founded hundreds of years ago to de-
fend the Protestant succession, cul-
minating in the Bill of Rights 1688,
The Order was established in Ulster
in 1795, with •a special purpose in
mind, a religious purpose.
Mr. Bulteel said that Orangemen
take their oath on the open Bible that
they will defend, if necessary, their
principles with their lives-. "Are you
Ireavn enough to die for this open
Bible if the days of persecution came
back again"? he asked.
The speaker urged his hearers to
attend 'church regularly every Sun-
day. Many people 'would like to shift
the rules of religion to suit them-
selves;but these rules of life could not
be changed," he said. "Before we act
and speak, we should stop and think*
Should I say that? Should I do that?
There are always plenty of weak
people who need help. There have
been hundreds of books written a-
bout helping self. I want to read a
book regarding helping a brother."
