THE BEE: OMAHA. TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 19. 1911. Council Bluffs SERVICE IN NEW CHURCH: Impressive Ceremonies Mark Dedi cation of Bluffs Edifice. SERMONS BY PASTOR'S BROTHERS First Conrratlonal Crowded to Overflowing by Sw Members, Who Llateit to Urllllaat Talkt. Bator an audience that filled .very ceat ar.d paw In tha building, th beautiful naw First Congreg-ational church wa Sralth. D. V.. pastor or tha Flmt Con dadicatad Sunday by aervlces that atl i.iioutihout tha day The services ware of a most Impressive character, and none who attended failed to realize and appreciate the message that came with dedication. The church haa cost nearly 160,000, and Is one of the most beautiful In the state, where the architect was permitted to combine Grecian (race and beauty with twentieth century practical utility. Tha dedicatory sermon was delivered at the morning service by Rev. Frank Q. Kregatlonal church In Chicago, and In tha evening by Rev. James K. Bmith. P. X., pastor of the First Congregational church at Qulncy, III. both brothers of Dr. O. O. Smith, whose strength and brilliancy has made possible one of the finest edifices owned by the Congrega tionalism In the state. Religion" was Dr. Smith's theme, and Ms mesKage was one of power and great uplift. Ills words fell from his lips to the hearts of his hearers In beautiful Imagery. He de fined religion as the science of life. Ha took for his text the declaration of the apostle, "And This Is Life Eternal." The sermon might be characterised an an swer to tha question. "What Is religion?" tr. Smith said religion was necessary to man's highest life and character here and to his safest security and best destiny hereafter. After discussing various ldeaa of people a to What religion was, ha laid down tha proposition that all opinions held by all men everywhere that were contrary to or hostile to religion were du to mis conceptions of what true religion really la, misconceptions based upon false con clusions or drawn from falsa or Insuffi cient data. Ha proceeded to establish this proposition by logical argument and to clarify It by Illustration. Continuing to com more directly to tha question, "What Is religion T" ha said that religion was the science of life, by which he meant tha science of being or of per sonality, just as botany is the science of flowers. Again by argument and Illus tration he proceeded to establish that truth. Then, in reply to the question, he carried his audience through the realms ef science, literature and art, only to find that while all of these helped to Interpret Ufa, none of them gave satisfactory an swers to the question. Then he bore his personal testimony to tha great truth that there was only one place In the world where that question was satisfactory answered, and that was In the (rest book of life, the Bible. "Here we are sweetly and truthfully told that Ufa Is the gift of God, that back of the flowers and the stars, the suns and the planets, and . back of each on of our lives, there Is a great supreme spiritual parson all ty whose law Is truth, whose motive . love, whose essence goodness, whose atmosphere peace and good will to men: that He gas us life, that w are all thoughts from the Infinite Mind, sparks from the eternal flame, and that to find His way and walk in it, to know His will and to do It, this Is religion, and this la the greatest thing in the world, that which harmonises, beautifies and satisfies all of life's other sctlvities snd feeds all its hungers." The dedicatory prayer by the venerable Father Rice was singularly beautiful. His hair whitened by nearly a century of life, his face shining with the light that was burning within until It was al most glorified, the aged pastor made an Impression that will last long in the minds of those present. The solemn dedl catory ritual with responses by all the congregation formed an impressive' fea inr of the services. The feature of the services designated as the "call for worker," took the form of cards scat tered through the audience pledging the signers to become members of the con gregatlon or the church. Many were signed by business and professional men. An audience fully as large attended the continuation of the services In the even ing, when Rev. James R. 8mlth, D. D., of Qulncy, delivered tha sermon. His theme was, "Why a Church Will Always Be Needed." and he took his text from tha scriptural declaration, "Upon this rock I will build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against It ", Dr. Smith was equally eloquent and nasterly and created as much Interest as was aroused by the morning sermon.

For example: When you use Cream of Tartar Baking Powder you get Rochelle Salts in your iood, because the Cream of Tartar during this reaction turns into Rochelle Salts.
