The church wan aIreatlT pretty well filed
up when the moderator. Itev _ Thomas H.
Hanna. D. Ii. who is pastor at the First r
church at Manmouth. IIi.-eulled for order.
On his righc hand sat Dr. W. t. ibb of I
Jamestown. O and an his left Rev. Sam-
lid Martin. a venerabte missionary from
Slaflrnt. . India. Servtce opened with thi.
aingtng of psalm C to the tune at "Old
Hnntired. " Dr RIbb read the scripture
lcsson. the aIm L'X.U. after which Dr
M.lrtin offered prayer.
Dr Martin Invoked heaven for esp.c1a1 I .
cnos1dera1on at this partlcutnr Urns. His
words were :
0b. remember our land at. this time. . Be
near to our rillere and may It be that what
they shalt do shall be in accordance with
Thy will. and that peace may come speedlly
131i with ne In thece troublous times. We
pray Thee that the time may yet come when
all the naUons shalt come to serve Thee in
the bleeatngs of peace.
After the slogfo of another penlm Dr.
Hanna dettvered his eermon. file text was
taken from SL Matthew xxviii. 19 "Go ye ,
therefore. and teach alt nat.lone. baptizIu

Sun anti of the Holy Ghoiit. "
! , ) : . of the C.r-nt M1MiIOU.
The theme of Dr. Baonas dlsconre 'was
the character. purpose and scope of the great
commission of Christ to His disciples just
before His ascension tram Mount OlivaL He
seemed to think the church Is In particular
note ! just now of a renewal of the missionary
eplilL Dr. Hanoa said in subetance :
Chrlst life was inisHlonary. His doe-
trine was missionary , His last command
as missionary , . uniiualthed by race , or
apace. or time ; according to Paul thie mind
must be in every disciple. Everyone. . who
would claim a place In that intarcesaton at
the Son with the Father. recorded b John.
'would know that it was In the plan of the
Father and the Son that men saved by the
tapel were to be in turn the saviours of
their teilowmen. Salvation from sin br the
gimpeI pIIBIfl out through a saved people
to an unsaved world. that La the divine idea
of the churchs nlieston on earth.
When Jesus , aid , ti0 , make iIiecIpte of
all nations , " He uttered the most zn.sjestlc
anti oilglnat proclamation ever mortals
beard. and committed to men the aubIImst
enterprise that human energy was ever Set
to acomptish. When Re said. "Go , preach
the gospel , lie suggested the only means
by which It coulil be brought about. Kindly
il1ct could not do It. the sword could not
mccoiupllsb it. the bribe of purse or position -
tion could never have started men everywhere -
where in hunt of their lost fellows. or en-
abied tht'nt to tint ! them had they gone.
Thit- the gospel could and did. the gospel of
Christ. with the power at the Italy Ghost
as Christ had promised.
Gospel evangelization that took for anything -
thing less than ' * be kingdoms of this world
becoming the kingdoms of our Lord aa'i His
Christ. " is surety out of harmony with the
niisston of the church , as taught in the mis-
eiar'ary charter she recelveti.
I do not uniterrate prophecy. but X like
plain commands much better , and deem
them at more p ct1ea1 value to the church.

churrh in general. and be a specitlu for much
