Fi 2 OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, MONDAY. FEBRUARY 20, 1928 ---- PAGE THREE rmy is Organized rong Chamber of Commerce Sales d Services Mark riAnniversary at Cedardale The anniversary services at Ced- ardale United Church were well at- tended yesterday, despite the sev- ore weather prevailing, Rev, W, A. Earston Doe, of Woodville, pre- slded at the both services, and at the Sunday School in the after- noon, spoke briefly to the children present, Rev, Doe is a former pas- tor of the Cedardale Church hav- ing been an incumbent of the office while still a student at Knox Col- lege. In the morning service, Rev. Doe took as his text, 'What doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly before thy God." He pointed out the misconcep- tion of the people of Israel, how they thought that the sacrifice of lambs, rams, and rivers of oil, were pleasing to God for the transgression of his people, God required more than just sacrifice, however, He required them to walk humbly, to do justly and to love mercy, That is they were to follow out the precepts and teaching of the text, If they did not enlist God on their side, however, they would fail, Rev, Doe declared, and they would not be able to live up to the text, without the strengtp of Him, who said, "My grace is suf- ficient," The choir rendered two pleasing cantatas very beautifully, led by Mrs, McFarlane, At the evening service, Rev. Doe chose ag his theme, "But Godliness is Profitable, Unto All Things Hav- ing the Promise of the Life that now is, and of that which is to come," That godliness is profitable, was Rev. Doe's contention, Godliness pays in things that are eternal, in things temporal, in peace of mind, and contentment of heart, Sin also pays, in that the devil exacts his due, the way of the transgressor is hard, and the wages of sin is death, The large congregations at both services testified to Rev, W, A, E, Doe's popularity at his old church, and it was fitting that he should have had charge of the anniver- sary services, SPECIAL SPEAKER AT KING STREET Rev. A. E. Black, of Metro- politan Church, Toronto, Occupies Pulpit Rev, A, E. Black, director of Religious Education of Metropoli- tan Church, Toronto, gave two in- teresting messages to the congrega- tions of King street United Church here yesterday, "Follow Me" was his morning subject, and "The Foolish One", his topic in the even- ing, The pastor of the church, Rev, C, W. DeMille, was in Smith's Falls for the day, addressing the anni- versary services of the United Church in that town, at the re- quest of Dr. Sedgwick of Metro- politan Church, who could not take 'them on account of the recent fire - disorganizing his own work. ' Mr, Black, who has charge of young people's and children's work in his church, gave two very in- teresting addresses here, holding the interest especially of the young people of the congregation. He slso spoke briefly at the Sunday School session in the afternoon. In the evening he spoke from the 'parable of the rich man, pointing out first his providence, in provid- ing larger barns for the increase in his crops, and showing his wis- dom, and foresight in so doing. Why, then does the Master call him a foolish man? questioned the speaker, then showed that, while he was wi in many ways, ne had left the religious side out altogeth- er, he was a one-sided instead of a many-sided man, so the Lord had cut his life short with "this might shall thy soul be required of thee." The choir assisted materially in the 4 , with the usual anthems and '8 solo in the morning by Miss M. , "Teach Me to Pray" and in the evening the men of the choir sang "Throw out the Life Line," GIVEN A KITCHEN SHOWER BY FRIENDS FOLLOWING FIRE About sixty friends and neigh- bors yathered at the homes of Mrs. E. H. Matchett and Mrs. R. J. Smith at the lake and present- ed Mr. and Mrs. George Bloomer, whose home at the lake was de- stroyed by fire last Monday morning, with a miscellaneous kitchen shower. The evening was spent in games and dancing, during the evening a suitable ad- dress was read by Mr. Grifin, who also made the presentation. A dainty buffet luncheon was served and all the guests wished Mr. and Mrs. Bloomer a hasty recovery from their misfortune. 156TH ANNIVERSARY BAPTIST GHURCH 15 WELL OBSERVED Prof. A. L. McCrimmon, of McMaster University, Preaches TO SPEAK TONIGHT Large Congregations Attend Sunday Services of Inspiring Nature The anniversary services held at the Emanuel Baptist Church yes- terday, marked the fifty-sixth year since the dedication of the present building and the fifty-eighth year from the organization of the church itself, Large congregations were pres- ent both morning and evening, despite the inclemency of the day, to receive the Inspiring messages of Professor A, L. McCrimmon of McMaster University, In the morn- ing Dr, McCrimmon spoke on "The Appeal of the Religion of Christ," taken from the text contained in the 10th chapter of John's gospel. The power of that gospel which has stood the test of nineteen hundred years was brought afresh before the people and the "witnessing" of a true confession of $aith in daily living was thrown out as a chal- lenge to the members of the church, in their entrance upon the fifty-ninth year of their history as an organized body in Oshawa, The hymns sung at the dedica- tion services on February 18th, 1872, were reproduced on hymn sheets used yesterday and in order to preserve the continuity of the series of evangelistic services heing held on Sunday evenings, the song service at ten miputes to seven took place as usual, Under the direction of Mrs, J. W. James and with Mrs, Cossar at the organ, the choir gave several selections, solo parts being taken hy Stanley Hales, John Kilgour and Mrs, James, In the evening, Dr, McCrimmon spoke from the text of the fifty- third chapter of Isaiah's prophecy, i his subject being "The Power of the Death of Christ." He gave a clear and beautiful portrayal of the vicarious sacrifice of the Son of God, whereby men may become the children of God, leaving with hls listeners the knowledge that it had been good for them to be there, It is anticipated that yesterday's congregations will. return this evening in full force to hear Dr. McCrimmon on his lecture "A Man at Large in the World," Profes- sor McCrimmon is a speaker of continental repuation, an orator of charming personality,--and the title of this evening's address is promising! No tickets are required for admission to this, the closing event in celebration of the church's fifty-eighth anniversary but a gen- erous plate offering will be in or- der, The Baptist people are to be congratulated and commended In bringing to Oshawa a preacher and lecturer of Professor McCrimmon's calibre and they confidently expect a capacity audience tonight--re- gardless of weather conditions, ------------------ IS ORDERED T0 LEAVE THE CITY Orville Hurst Convicted of Vagrancy -- Thomas Morley Sentenced Two men appearing ip city pe- lice court this morning were con- victed on charges of vagrancy. Or- ville Hurst was sentenced to six months definite and two years less one day indeterminate, but this sentence was suspended on condi- tion that he leave the city and On- tario County by four o'clock this afternoon. Thomas Morley was sentenced to two months in the county jail. Hurst was arrested yesterday af- ternoon, and when he appeared this morning Magistrate Hind ordered him to leave the precinets of the city because he had apparently mot beep making any particular effort to make good.

He told the court that he could get work if his leg was cured, there being some defect at the present time. He was given two months to yet straighten- ed up again. LODGER FROM N. 8.

"IN MEMORIAM" VERSES (Kirkland Lake Northern News) I have long been of the opinion that something should be done to improve the quality of the we see printed "In Memoriam" no- tices in the daily papers. It would be far better for the afflicted rela- tives--sincere enough no doubt in their desire to show their feelings of regret for the dead--to go to someone who knows how. to write verse, tell their sentiments to such and get him or her to write some- thing appropriate that does not violate every known law of metre, lines, mixes in common and short metre, and ends up wity some thing thai isn't metre at all. it is utterly distressing to those who understand verse, and is enough to cause the death of any musically- inclined relative of the deceased verses | person, | Atchison Stobie, Forlong & Co., Stocks Noon Closing Toronto Bid Arnold Bros. ........ 16 Bheston ....oirsasernin: 33 | Int, | Int, nada M alting hristie.

John Linton, Toronto, | Conducts Inspiring Meeting at Regent PLAN MORE | MEETINGS 1 | 33% | Services Are Being Held Under Auspices Calvary Baptist Church Something of an innovation ig | Oshawa was inaugurated Sunday afternoon when the first of several | meetings of an evangelistic char- | | acter was held in the Regent The- atre here. These meetings are be- ing held on the initiative of the newly formed Calvary Baptist Church, but others are co-operating in the work and expense involved. At the service yesterday the spe- cial speaker was Rev. John Linton, B.A., pastor of High Park Baptist Church, Teronto, often called the "Football Pastor" as he was promi- nent in soccer circles for many vears. Mr. Linton's subject was, "Who Was Cain's Wife?" and he 'handled the topic in a masterful way, not evading the issue of side- stepping the problems that the question suggests at any point. His application of the subject t9 mod- ern life was forceful and constitu- ted an effective appeal to his hear- ers to give themselves to Christ. Mr. Robert Henderson led the song service and Mrs. Jack Smith presided at the piano. Rev. F. Dickie, returned missionary from China, who is mow a resident of Oshawa, led in prayer and at the close of the meeting asked those present to indicate by a show of hands whether they would like a similar meeting the following Sun- day. To this suggestion practical ly all present responded. Despite the blustery weather there were over two hundred present, includ- ing many young people. Further announcement will be made later "egarding a speaker and other ar- rangements for next Sunday.
