PtI's Episcopal church tht rector ,
Hcv. E. J. lahcccc , who has erved the
parIsh so faithfully . preached his Carewel l ,
sermon. I was ' listened to atentvely l )
a large cunl'regaton , and whie there was
nothing In thou discourse of I personal nature -
Lure , there was running through Il a thread
of suggestiveness. hhio theme "inuhiufeu .
sugestnness 113 thtme was "llller-
"
enc . and while there was nu scolding or
'fallt.lntlng , It was an earnest warnln
against this hindrance to both individual anll
church ( lovelopinont.
lIe Chose as his text : "And Gale care l
care
for none of these things " He spoke Irsl
of the beauties ot nature , and how they
naturally aroused feelings akin tu communion
with God IhmolC , 'hey appealed to a man ' 'S '
truer self. Whlo there was not In the ma-
tonal beauty any spirit to give Interchange :
between It and the heart , yet as all that was
good. true and beautCul emanated Crcm God ,
It should not be viewed with IndlrCerence ,
The beautiful adornments and allpolntment
of the place oC worship , appealing to the
aesthetic In mnn's nature should cause a
re ponse other than a careless whispering
or 1 lIstless regard to the service. The sense
ot tile beautiful was God's gif and found
its cbjectvt In himself. The beautiful was
a heh to the knowledge of God. The format
hahhu'ss of religious worship had been aim t-
Hrown and , on the other hand , the uinhin a-
Ied ritual and undue oratencss oC worship
had linseed away. The present Corm was
such a happy me3n that It should arouse
every worshiper to due appreciation and ci m-
thuslaslc participation.
In the portrayal uf the character oC Gale
was given a picture oC good-natured indiffe r-
ence The speaker dwelt at length upon
the details of this character , drawing thor C.
from some practical lessons for his hearer
lie fpole of the indifference shown 10 the :
