j GRAND RALLY j AT OLD BRICK J TO CELEBRATE THE TWO HUNDRED 1 I AND -FIRST ANNIVERSARY OF \ | THE OLD COLD SPRING PRESBYJ TERIAN CHURCH, ORGANIZED AND 1 I ESTABLISHED THERE DURING 1 | SEPTEMBER, 1714 ( From Monday's Daily Star and Wave ' By Rev. J. L. Landis Te day was a warm one, but comfortable an could be expected for mid- ' August. Notwithstanding, the heat did ^ not deter the people from coming early and filling the "Old Brick Church" to 1 overflowing. Hut it goes without saying that it is one of the most comfortable church edifices, though verging on a hundred years, in all this region, on a hot summer day, both for the preacher and the people. On Sunday it held a notable gathering of sons and daughters from far and near, they returning home to celebrate the two hundred and first anniversary. Members and a host of riends from all the suroiinding communities, together with many strangers, were ma«e doubly Yes. it stands on the sacred ground* " where the fathers of the first generation who came and hallowed it by laying broad and deep foundations of their faith and hope in God across the great ocean. in the great ocean,

to plant and establish this old church in tlie wilderness of America, and the greatest God-ordained principles of human and divine freedom of self-government, and to worship God according to the dieHilt they built far beyond their earthly visiou. Yet. to God bclongeth all the glory and power of the. faithful lives of these heroes of faith in great struggles and self- sacrifice of the earlier and pioneer generations. Hut the Lord was with them, and all succeeding genera-

tions. as truly leading and protecting tliem as He did Israel, and gave the B. church prosperity and such commanding influence in this ri-gion in the spread of . truth and righteousness that ha- seldom been obtained by any historic country church. We joined Israel's king in "singing unto the Lord a new song; for He hath dope marvelous things for us." May our a meditations, as the- memories or tiie past ore recalled, bemore precious and impres- 'p sive than ever before. Ami may they in- u spire a deeper interest in this old church pi of our fathers and cause every member „ of this church anil congregation to feci ti that there is nothing too much foa^then) i'l, tp do to bringr it up to lits old standard „ of influence and power for tKfcaWsc of f, Christ. \ g : The program* commenced with an p organ voluntary by Mrs. Albert Mat- a thews, the most faithful and efficient o organist of the church. The trio com- n posed of Messrs. Heber Lanning, Edson g Packer and Win. L Cnmmings sang e beautifully "Nearer My God to Tbee." Ti Following the long metre Doxology, b * Rev. E. Page Stites offered a most ear- h nest prayer, after which the congregation f» sang the hymn, "I Love Thy Kingdom, g ' I/>xd."' I I In a very earnest welcome address by e * Judge H. Henry Eldredge. a most hearty, > cheering welcome was extended to every- , body, with the hope expressed that the c new era of possibilities would enable the c church to utilize them most profitably « for B5th the temporal and spiritual in- 4 tereste of the church. A solo by Mr. Wm. J. Fleming. "Jesus, , Lover of My Soul," was heard with great , delight. Mr. Fleming is choirmaster of ( _ the East Montgomery Avenue Methodist j Church. Philadelphia. , A poem. "The Old Brick Church," waa ' well rendered by Sydney Goff, the author » A solo, "One Sweetly Solemn Thought" * (by Ambrose), was sung with much pathos by Mr. lleber Lanning, of the choir of the First Presbyterian Church, Tiien followed the rejiorts by the F.ndpwmont Committee, reviewing their arduous labors and offering the report of Judge Eldredge, the treasurer, as follows: Financial Statement Cold Spring Endowment Fund RECEIPTS Subscription list — Amount subscribed $10,205.06 Amount unpaid . . . 270.00 $ 0,836.06 Cash contributions . . 168.24 Interest on deposits. . 79.24 ~ Sale of plates "<-18 $10,256.72 EXPENDITURES I Postage and stationery. .$ 9.00 Printing 34.45 Dinner Rally Day, 1914 . . 76.06 Transportation, 1914 6(1.50 Interest on loan 4.09 r 185.10 Net receipts $10,071.62 Investments in municipal bonds City of Cape May. $$3,003.75 Ocean City 2,050.38 2

Everything seemed so bright and cheerful that the congregation was very fittingly invited to sing" Mr. Sunday** "Brighten the Corner Where You Are,* which they did with great zest and gladThen came the addreas.or sermon, on the text, "For All Things Work Together for Good to Them that Love God." All that we can trust ourselves to say of the spirit with which he sauntered into the day and the <jnany things o( I logic and deduction, from the more prac- . tical things of life, is that it was a moat ( admirable and eloquent discourse. The t 1 preacher Is the pastor of the Frankford ' Methodist Episcopal Church, which, in the course of a few years, he has built t up from a membership of 200 to overitoO. j Another solo by Mr. Fleming.' "There I« a" Land Mine Eye Hath Seen," waa _ sung with the same pleasing effect as ' the preceding one. J The closing remarks were made by Mr. N. Perry Edmunds. e The congregation concluded with the h farewell hymn, always touching and sympathetic, "God Be With You Till Wa ' Meet Again." ^ WEST CAPE MAY GOES A 'BATHING p On Monday evening the [s-oplo of West lf Cape May had a bathing party, at the i foot -of l'roadway. Almost the entire population turned out and the beach, between six and eight o'clock, was a n lively scene. Old men and women, young men and pretty maidens, boys and girls and litle tots and infants, all turned out, and the numl»or has been variously eatiy mated at from 00 to 2.000. 5 BARN DANCE - GREAT SUCCESS " ■ . '

RGO.M uniquely decorated. costumes original and-gr0-tesqe. Society folk revel in guise of rustic farm folk From Thursday's Daily Star and Wave Tlie (Mil Country Costume Barn Dance - at the Hotel Cape May. last night, was pulled oil in Ca|>e May. both in the number of socially prominent people participating and in -the' extravagance aud prodigality of decorations and coaThe spacious ball room and the • large and comfortable o]>en-air restaurant w«-e appropriately decorated and nine o clock on wore the scene of gayetv and of life. Gallant gentlemen, prominent in tlie business life of this and other nations, and society matrons of distinction, attired in the most original and grotesque costumes imaginable, gracefully danced away the hours on the excellent hard -wood floor of the ball or partook of eooling refreshment* between dances. Mr. Seanlon. of the hotel, who had charge of the decorations, simply outdid himself. Everything suggestive of a real country barn was used some manner to add to the pictur'esqueness of the scene. The most striking effect was wrought on tlie large glass and mahogany doors, opening into the ballroom from the exchange. These were made to represent real barn door, with hay protruding the loft. Inside the barn were sUcks of hay, straw and corn fodder. The pillars and chandeliers were deci orated with green corn, cornhusks and ' old-fashioned country flowers. In the center of the front of the room was a full-moon, very effectively placed and well gotten-up. ! ■ There were pumpkins, carrots, beets, ■ Cabbage, com. and almost every other • product of the farm, besides harness, , bridles, saddles, horse blankets, pitch- . forks, hoes and shovels. The society | belles looked at many of these things in wonder and amazement, most of them never having seen any real country bara paraphernalia before. , r The orchestra, whose platform was r made to represent a hav loft, discoursed 1 inspiring music. The members were dressed in novel and spectacular coa- - tumcs. The open-air restaurant was lighted up with Japanese lanterns. -Washington, Baltimore. Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and many other large cities were represented.- and the belles and debutantes were costumed to represent country milkmaids and kitchen cooks. "Tillie, the Merionite Maid." was there, and "Uncle Si," with his pipe and bandana, .likewise his pitchfork. The patronesses were Mrs. F. Richards, 2 " Mrs. J: O, Bonsai, Mrs. Ferdinand J. Groves, Mrs. Wallace Hallowell. Mrs. W. Joyce. Mrs. Bartlett and Mrs. J. C. Parker. . j 0 : r' Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S ° C ASTO R 1 A STOVES STORED— $1.50. per season.
