This view of truth solves most of o@r probiems about the things that are sometimes called “questionable.” The chart of life becomes clear and certain and honest doubt is dispelled. The rule here tsated is absolute and inclusive. Such a ilfe of harmony with God and with the music of heaven brings present peace on earth in all hearts where the King of Glory reisns su- preme, and promises a future peace that shall never be disturbed. The angels' song has eternal notes. When they went back that Christmas night they forzot to close the door of heaven, and we are still invited to “rest beside the weary road and hear the angels sing.” ; At the Junior church, a Christmas service was held with pretty Christ- mas songs sung by the punior choir. Christmas recitations were given by Marjory Phillips, Marie Jackson, Al- thea Church and Masters Lloyd Rath- bun and Lester Peckham. Sunday evening Rev. Mr. Cuniin ham gave the first of a series of thr sermons upon the life of Jesus. The first from the birth to the first twelv vears of Jesus' life and work. The mon was illustrated stereopticon views and was both interesting and instructive. Second Congregational Church. Like the other churches, there were many at the morning service at the Second Congregutional church, there being the characteristic Christmpas decorations. Rev. H. J. WyckofFs topic was As the Night Drew on Tow- ard Day. It was a magnificent sermon and in blank verse, representing much time and effori. The choir, which was angmented { the occasion, carried out an excel programme, the anthems being in good voice and with sympathy and expression. Central Baptist Church.
