Irving A, Searles ‘preached his farewell sermon yesterday morning nt the South Side Christian Church, taking as his theme, “The Bright Vision,” and as his toxt the first eluven yerses of Igntnh, Ml. The toxt,,the speaker sald, gave a vision or Christ's Kingdom as seen by one who had lived centuries before tho coming of the King.. The Prophet saw that the Kingdom of our Lord would grow by silent, unobtrusive means, and It was sald: “He shall not ery, nor lift up, nor cause his voice to be heard in tho streets.” Ite advent Into n town was not to be unnounced by the boom- lng of cannon, and tha columns that le. led were not to keep step to the beating of drums, ‘The new Kingdom was to urisa something ag ald Solomon’s ‘Temple: * Thehouse when it was bullding was built of stone made ready bofore it was brought thither; so that there was nelthor hammer, nor ax, nor any tool of {ron heard in the house while it was bulld- Ing.” Here was a yast ediflee, but it arose in silence.

He thanked thenr for thelr Christian syi- pathy and support. Te bad not an enemy in all the Chureh. Nay, more, they were abl his warm friends, and he had the most frlendly feeling toward al of them.
