K M.. attended services In a body lu tbe First Presbyterian Cburcb last Bun day evening, and Ibe edifice was com forlably filled. Tbe men took seats reserved for them lu tbe body of tbe cburcb. On ibe right of tbe pulpit wa* a large American flag and on (be left was the tribe's baone . The pastor, the Rev. Dr. Bnyder, extended a cordial invitation to tbe lodge men to tbe service. He said that be trusted that he would be able to give them a message of tbe preaeut aud future that may be an inspiration to tbem and tbelr order. Tbe subject of blsexcelJent discourse vn>, "Wauled — A Man." Ha look his text from Jer. 6; 1. It wa* an address to tbe men of tbe commuuity aud uatlou to arouse ibetn>elve* to tbe great tasks that are confronting therein beginning, referring to bis text. Dr. Bnyder aald that tbe cry today is for a man In whom tbe country can bave confidence. Tbere has not yet appeared on tbe horizon one wbo can lead us out of tbe present chaotic conditions. Tbe speaker tben told of tbe characteristics of the mau required. Flret, be must have reverence for tbe law and tbe sscred duty and privilege of citizenship. Dr. Bnyder illustrated ibis point by graphically recalling the siory of tbe Pilgrim Fathers, their steadfastness throughout to tbelr faith in the All High. Tbey breathed tbe ideals or America Tbese were tbe men who bad be spirit of God. He showed bow far afield tbe people of America of today have gone since tbe time of tbelr forefathers. Tbe second thing needed was a great reverence for the Babbatb as a day of rest and worship. Again tbe past was referred to as tbe add teat of tbe blessednea* of tbirf kind of a day. Tbe oatlon must observe tbe day from the tUndpoloi of health as well as from tbe standpoint of reverence for God's laws. In tbe third place, tbe speaker aald. there must be reverence for tbe cburcb and tbe things of God. Tbe Cburcb today stands as tbe loan defender of God's righteousness. We bave bad no reverence for tbe things of the Cburcb. We have sown to the whirl

wind and we will reap tbe coose- , quences. Tbe cry of today Is for men wbo will strip themselves of tbe euptrflu t ou« things of this world and fight for tbe things of God. > There was excellent singing at tbe services.
