Mr. De Mrille told of the -early settlers whobrought the gospel to the land and who strove through the years to leave for us a heritage. (God was with them, as He is with us. In the early days when railroads were hard- ly heard of, autos were never dream- ed of, and flying machines would have bean inthe minds of the peo- ple, a myth, they strove through .overwhelming odds to live and build for this generation, what we now en- joy. Mr. De- Mille counselled - the younger generation to hold fast to the geed, serve God, and press on- ward to the high calling, which is in Christ Jesus.:,. The Rev. Dr, Coch- rane, took for t o ` ' , o his lessen the 103rd •Ps alnt 'and an d b se a d his remarks on Exodus 2, Ile said that in hie work, hep -could' not say 'My Church, 112y People.' He greatly missed that part of his ministry. He goes where he is sent, anywhere, everywhere, where ever duty or service is calling. Be, congratulated the choir and the peo- ple on having, such a fine church in a small town, God had been good to this people.: He carried his vast"con- gregatlon in thought for nearly an hour up through Egypt frequently referring to the words found in Exo- dus 10;19. "And Moses took the hones of Joseph with him; for he had straightly sworn the children of Israel, saying God will surely vis- it you; and ye shall carry up my bones away hence with you."
