P. C. Wright. Rev. P. (. Wright completed a series of four sermons upon Don'ts for 1912 by p ing Sunday evening upon the topic Don't Forget God, holding a good sized congregation closely attentive to| his thoughtful unfolding of the topic. His text was from Deuteronomy, where God gave the commandments to the children of Israel and subsequently arned them to remember their ob- servance as they came {rom bondage in Egynt into podsession of the pleas- | ant land of Palestine. Can we of New England, who pe- | culiarly have built God into our whole lives, be in any danger of forgetting him? 1 was warned because the nation was going out from a place of limited refources into one of more wealth and power, where the influence might be to forget God. We in our| day are in much the same situation, and in four points we should not for- get God. Don't forget God in our plans for ife. If that were tha only message which a preacher could impress upon his hearers, he might well rest content with 1ips sealed in death with the con- sciousness that he had sounded it truly and well. Don't forget God in the home; he is fundemental in the rela- tionship of man and wife and in the child life. Don't forget God in our pleasure: Pleasure ig essential to the normal life and God has apparently made us to enjoy life, but He should be in it all. Don’t forget God in the movement of your life toward the great hereafter. Life in the body is only a temporary arrangement and if we real- ize the fulfillment of our life, both here and hereafter, we shall bring God into all our experiences. PLEDGE WAS GIVEN TO 300 MEN.
