Duiican. The bishop was suffering from grippe and a sore throat, yet his sermon was ehxpient, scholarly and invigorating. lie preached from that dillicult text in Matthew where .Ions said. "Ho that loveth father <?r mother, son or daughter more than mo is not worthv of inc.' Hi- handling of lh? subject \vn> master lv. lb-hop Duncan called attenti n to the many thousands of people who fail in business and in life because they were not wholly do voted to the matter- in hand. The The world of business, id letters and of art demands the devotion of thoso who would succeed. Christ in His king lorn, dcnviudtke same devotion Nor is the love toward son or kin in opposition to the love wo have for our Savior. The more wo low Christ tile in >re we will love our own soils and daughters. There are men in Columbia, s iid lie, more devotod to <otne principles than tliev are to their wives and children. The li reman will risk hi- life, sacrifice hi- life if need he, to rescue a child who he had never seen from a burning building. The engineer on the doomed locomotive seeing the yawning cliasni before him. thinks of his wife and little one- at bom? but like a hero that lie is, he stand* at his post and goes down with his engine -more devoted to hts duty than to his wife and children. There are a vast number of heroes in the world, actual h 11 d possible. At the close of the sermon a collection (\:i- -alien, the pi> cecds to he used t > |?ny an organ. A good sum was raised.
