REOPENING OF SCHOOLS

The cakewalk wa. great, everybody

w ill l>.

The taking of the pledges waa In the Lkllful hands of (he Kev. J. Donnan' '•iiiuleriuine, D. D., who led olT with i very substantial subscription of hla iwn. Though In Impaired health, uud against the advice of his physicians task and accomIplisbed It with the splendid results mted shove. The Doctor la one of Ihe uost devoted friends (he First Chnreh lias. Hi. lale, beloved wife waa for years a member of the congregation, knd largely as a trlbnte lo her memory lie allowed’ himself In lake charge of ;lie work. He based his appeal on a •■xt nf Scripture taken from Malacht R;lt>—“Bring ye all tbe tlthea Into the storehouse, that there may be meat In mine house, and prove me now herewith. salth the Lord of hosts. If 1 will lot open you the windows of braven, ami pour you out a blessing, tbat there dial! not be room enough to receive It.” In a very adroit way he led up to tbe k In hand, and in a few well-Rbown rd. laid the whole matter before the igregallon, which, though taken by prise, responded with such liberal

offerings.

'the following Is an abstract from r. Countermine's aarmon: Here are four main thoughts, raid ■e Doctor. First, Hod’s call, "Bring ! all the tithes Into Ihe storehouse that there may be meat In my bouae.” Second, “Hod’s challenge.'' "Proveme twlth, ralth the Irfird of hoeta." rd, Hod’s promise, "I will open the windows of heaven and pour you ool a blessing that there shall nut be room to receive ll." Fourth, Hod tuHtUIng His word, IIKtstrated In the context. Hod calls by Hip word, His providence, HI* spirit and HI* living mlnIstry. He wants that which belongs lo lllm.not that he is poor, or Ih need, hut hi order that we may put ourselves lu a position where He can bleaa ns abundantly. Hod cannot bless some people because they are not In a condition to he blessed. It la tbelr fanlt, mil Hod's, that they go nnblnaed. We ad need Ihe blessing on our own aoula, our families, sons and daughter*, our business and our church and church work, 11 Is very remarkable, he raid, great Hod who has created ■olds and own* all things sk us for money, and then challenge us to obey and thue pnt 11 in to the open teat. The speaker based hi* appeal, which as most earnest, Hmt, on God'* rail: scond, on Hod's challenge; third, ou tie memory of the Rev. Mr. Uaaaalerry, the former pastor. "Let this church be free from defat, ud thus let It stgnd an an enduring memorial of his great activity, uuUriug energy, consecration and Hcrlptural faithfulness In all thlnga,” raid

the speaker.

Thl* part of the sermon wra vary touching, many being moved to Imre. "To get the blessing," raid the Doctor, "we must meet Hod on Hla own term*,'' and tbe people In the beat of spirit* responded with over a tour

thousand dollar offering. ibscriptlona wen so large aad
