DETROIT RECTOR IS WELCOME OMAHA VISITOR The Rev. Fr. Everard W. Daniel, rector of St. Matthew’s church, De troit, Mich., was celebrant at the 7:30 a. m. eucharist at the Churcte of St. Philip the Deacon, Sunday morn ing, and preacher at the sung euchar ist at 11 o’clock, when Father Wil liams, rector of the parish, was cele- ! brant.. Father Daniel also addressed the Church school. His sermon, which was based upon the miracle of the feeding of the five thousand as recorded in the Gospel according to St. John, was scholarly, thought-compelling and inspiring and made a deep impression upon the large congregation present. The speaker stressed the inclusive ness of the Gospel, and therefore by its nature the incompatibility of any spirit of nationalism with the Chris tian religion. The same two classes ! who confronted our Lord, narrow na tionalists and those under economic pressure who are chiefly concerned with material things, are with us to day, with their various gradations, m i s understanding, misinterpreting, and misapplying the religion of Jesus Christ, which emphasizes brotherhood and the motivating power of love. Christianity has given new value to human life, banished slavery and raised the status of womanhood. As a people none owe more to Christi anity than do our people and none would suffer more if its power and influence wane. The salvation and the hope of humanity depend wholly upon the Cross of Christ, which stands for love, joy, peace and good will for all God’s children every where. Sunday evening, at the request of Fr. Williams, Fr. Daniel paptized Henrietta Ellen, infant daughter of Dr. and Mrs. John A. Singleton, whose marriage he had solemninzed in St. Philip’s church, New York, ten years ago. Mrs. Singleton, nee Daisy Goring, having been one of his Sun day school children. Another inter esting feature of this service was the fact that the godmother, Mrs. Charles T. Smith, formerly of Brooklyn, N. Y., was at one time a parishioner of Fr. Daniel’s. Among other interesting features and surprises of Fr. Daniel’s visit to Omaha was his meeting here of Mr. J. Frank Smith, formerly of Brook lyn, N. Y., now senior warden of St. Philip’s, Omaha, and whom he had not seen for twenty-one years. The Detroit rector left for his home Monday, after an all too brief visit here, where he made a most favor able and delightful impression upon all who had the privilege of meeting him. METHODISTS HOLDING QUARTERLY CONFERENCES The Rev. John Adams, presiding elder of the Omaha district, who has been attending conferences in the South, is expected home Saturday to conduct quarterly conference in St. John’s A. M. E. church, Twenty-sec ond and Willis avenue, the Rev. John H. Grant, D. D., pastor.
