D. pastor of Park Congregational churel in a forceful sermon delivered Good Friday morning at the church. Dr. Howe took his text from John , This is He that came by water and lood, Jesus Christ, not by water orly, but by water and blood. He sail in part: ‘We are spectators to a wild welter of world carnage and are now drawn Into the churling maelstrom. The whele world seems coming to be a gigantic shambles and slaughter pen. Blood has been flowing in rive enough to float a battleship, and is likely to con- tinue to flow. It is not a new thing in history, Fut a very old and tried out thing. Enough blood has flown to make another Med- iterranean. It has had the past for its own and has the present and fer- haps the future In hand. It is not only the cost of progress but of exist- ence. We can onl!y get our chance to live by dving for it. It is an old, threadbare stoty till it seems instinct- ive that everythtig is purchased with the sacrifice of Jife. I our eyes are in our foreheads we must see that blood is purchasing the Wm. Faulkes High Alleluia—Alieluif. (Offertory.)

Russia has had her yoke broken by the slaughter of ler sons, and we are hoping to see other thrones totter and crowns slip from proud heads and eld houses of cen- turies’ standing topple by the same means since human captivities can only thus be broken. Tt is the deep conviction of the e lightened peoples of the world that we are facing this_question, for _th=m- selves and for the generations that are to come; that this long battie of ihe ages must now be fought; that the hour has come for the democratization of the world. We are convinced that autocracy and this ghastly farce of monarchial rule have been the curse of the world and must en#; that free peoples must have their foll chanc> to develop aionz the lines of their apti- tudes and native capacities; that any- thing ehort of unshackled freedom is the ghastliest stavesty and the arraizn- ment of the sanity of the world if fur- ther tolerated. Man must be free to come o his own. He may not, - always use his freedom wisely, but must have it. We believe Christianity fosters and develops the spirit of democracy. It finds for us the epirit of freedom und plants the seed of free people. It calls the slave and offers the prole- tariat the same terms of discipleship as It offers the aristocrat. It sinks ail our superiorities when it forces to cur | knees all clasges at the communion | table. Jesus Christ died to make all men free, and He makes us on -300d Friday aware that our liberty in this great universe is bought with His biood. Without the shedding of blood there is no remisgion and no climb into the still heights for us and for all men. Are we in the-interest of personal safety to refuse to bear our part In bringing in a reign of universal iiber- fraternity, and equality upon the whole_world? We are going to help turn back this reig mof chaos and of the old night which wouid turn the world into a madhouse and we will help bring in the real cosmos of order and righteousness and democracy npon the earth. Once we cried for our- seives, Give me liberty or give me death. We enlarge this mnoble scif- dedication into Give the nations liberty or give us death, and with this spirit I think we may advance and take our brothers’ share in the battle which is unto life or death for all the great peoples of the world. Whatever others may do, let us dedicate ourselves to the freedom and full enfranchisement, the complete democratization of all naticns which aspire for the freedom of which we have been the outstanding exem- plars for 140 years of great history and achievement. EASTER SATURDAY SERVICES. ng of Water, New Fire and the Paschal Candle, of Fifth Century Origin. This morning at 7.20 In St. Patr:k church there will be the blessing of ihe Easter water used in tMe ceremonies throughout the year. On Easter Saturday, too, there ls the lighting of the new fire which rep- resents the rising of ‘Christ and his vic- tory over sin. From the spark obtaiced the paschal candle is lighted and this, according to St. Anslem, signifies three things: The virgin wax typifies the body of our Lord, the wick the soul, while the flame is the symbol of div'n- ity. The use of the Easter taper is very ancient in the Roman Catholic church, dating back as far as Pope St. Zos mus, who at the beginning of the Afth century ordered that it should be made in the shape of a column, on which the order of office was incised. After the return of the procession to the chancel the blessing of the candle takes piace, and it is decorated by the deacon with the five halls of gilded and silvered incense which he thrusts into the wax in the form of a cros: These are symbols of the wounds snd perfumes with which the body of our Lord was covered; it is lighted as a symbol of the Resurrection and buins during high mass and vespers until Ascension, forty days after Easter.
