Rev, George H. Hepworth, the pas- tor, preached a sermou of unusual power and bril- liancy on the subject, ‘Helps in Life.” He took as hig text Isatan 1, 7—“For tue Lord God will belp ime.” . He was on a steamer going trom New York to Newport, and saw ail along at intervaly lights, He inquired che reason of so many lights, and ,the captain told him that but for these frieudly lights he wouid crawl along insecurely, but no matter how darx the nignt or stormy he could. go on with a full head of steam and-reach lis destination in safety. Uneonsciously this captam with the brawuy hand and big heart had reveaied to him the helps in Our lives.
