The morning service began at 11 a.m^ A large crowd attended, j This was a special service. The Pastor, ?Rev. Dunbar preached a ^ veiy inspiring sermon installing h which numbered about 32. Hist ** (?! text was taken from Luke 2:52.' ~ j Proverbs 4:7. Subject: "Leadership". He brought out some very ^ strong points that would be very g helpful to the parents, worker r, _? member3 and friends who heard _ him. Some of the good points ]( were: 1. Education is not learning but they are closely allied. It is ^ laying up facts in the mind, It is a part of one's self. It-"will have to be devleoped and controlled. 2. B "Learning" is a possession. Some d of the things to be developed in w or.e's self a:e: strength, activity, ^ beauty and duration.? He also said b that there is only one thitig great on earth ar.d that is man; and f only one thing great in man and fi that is his mind. The ideals irr * Man's mind are no good unless a they are materialized. Some of the things needed are jierseva- . tion plus hard work. In his closing remarks he said ^ that the principle idea is to get wisdom and in all your wisclom get understanding. He begged f< the parents to cooperate with the E workers and by doing this it would R help the Sunday school which is sl no more an organization of the F church but the church itself. In r other words the Evangelistic part ^ of the church. n I am pleased to relate this fact, that i fthe members, friends, parents and workers who heard this ^ wonderful sermon that was de- ^ livered by the pastor in his most god-like manner, will take heed to, itr much benefit could be derived ffrom it. n BYPU was largely attended. c CI The evening sermon was preach ed by the pastor also. This sermon was just a continuation of tjie mcnning'f str-mom Subject: "The Word of God is a Name for R Christ". One outstanding pbirt f he gave was (hat the word "f c' God lives and it never dies.
