Service Held By Congrega

umph of Faith
i
Sunday in Mt. Vernon was notables
for service? ot a more than Common
Iy interesting character hi soveml of
the local churches. In addition to
the Itally day services held by tho
Gay St. M. E.. tho Presbyterian anl
the Baptist churches, the congrega
tion of the Vino St. Church of Christ
participated in a series of stSrvica oc
cupying tho entire day, marking tho
cancellation of tho debt on tho
church and the burning of tho mort
gage, tho tanglblo evidence of that
debt. y
Large congregations were at each
of the services, three in number. The .
theme for the morning serVice was
"Consecration"; thaf for tho after
noon gathering was "Fellowship";
the evening service had "Victory" as
its keynot'3.
The services wore conducted by the
pastor, the Rev. Hugh Wayt. Pres
ent and taking an nctive and Inter
ested part In all was the Rev. J. A.
long of Wilmington, 0 a former pas
tor of the local church, during -whose
pastorate the present church edifice
was erected. Assisting tho pastor,
tho Rov.. Hugh Wayt, at thojmorning
service, he spoke 'at tho Fellowship
service in tho afternoon, while at the
Victory service in the evening ho de
livered the sermon.
Consecration being, the theme of
tho morning service, 'tho pastor spoke
to tho congregation, his sermon text
being II. Timothy 2:8. Tho sermon
began with words of command and
exposition of the admonition written
bv Paul to Timothy. Continuing, tho
minister said Christianity has given
to the world many great characters
ad good men, but we are admonished
to "remember Jesus and to follow
Him."
Wo are to remember Christ was a
personal saviour and had a human
body. He has taken our humanity into
the presence of God.
Wo are to remember Jesus In His
humility, Ho w&s tho Prince of
Peace, but was served by tho evl-
denc of His humility. His disciples
were hard-working publicans and
fishermen. He came in no royal char
iot. '
Wo should remember His kindness.
In the kind things Ho did Ho was no
recpectcr of persons. His kind treat
ment of the sinner docs not mean a
Hconso to sin.
Wo ' are to remember Jesus -also
for His personal work. His was a
hand-to hand 'service He calls U3 In
dividually to follow Him. He is with
each fndivldual as though that one is
the only person on earth.
We aro to remember Chilst also as
a man of courage. When He drove
the money changers from tho torn
pie, when Ho was before Herod and
Pilate, ho was bold.
Let us remember Jesus also as the
onlyj sinless being. Whon wo stand
in the prcsenco of Christ it is not to
loolc at fallen greatness, but to ob
serve simplicity In its greatness.
We aro to remember Jesus also in
Hib sufferings. Wo were bought with
a piice, the precious blood of Christ.
At the conclusion of his sermon,
tho minister aptly quoted from Kip
ling's Recessional,
O Lord of hosts,
no with us yet,
Lest wo forgot.
Fellowship Session
Tho aftornoon service, held at 2:30,
1
was n fellowship Reason, to -which
camo ti worship and to fellowship
with tho Vine street church tho mem
bers of other congregations of Mt.
Vernon and neighboring places.
It in estimated that GOO or more
visitors were served at tho noon hour
in the dining room. Them) were from
practically every town and congre
gation in Knox county, and not a few
also from adjacent counties. Several
were hnro from Columbus.
The great congregation present at
the fellowship service gave evidence
of the kindly Interest and fraternal
concern of sister churchc9 In the vic
tory of tho Vino street church. No
longer aro tho churches divided by
religious rancor and Jealousy, but the
membership regard themselvos rath
er as units and members of regiments
and divisions of tho army of the Lord,
under one Leader.
The afternoon service was given to
opportunity for expression of felici
tation and friendly interest by the
pastors of sister churches' and by'
the spokesmen of committees and so
cieties of the Vine street church.
These all were quite happy and ex
collontly worded, bringing in a deli
cate way the friendly feeling the
speakers and their churches, enter
tain for the Vine St. people,
Among those speaking were the
Itova. A. B. Mink, W. H. Shields, Don
nld Wonders, David Pike, D. C. Co
burn and S. J, Cleelund. In behalf
of church organizations were Judge
Lewis n.Houck and J. A. Schaerfer
for the finance committee, John Ack
prman for tho Christian Endeavor so
ciety, Mrs. George McNnbb for the
missionary society. The Ladles' Aid
society well might have had a spokes
woman, but their modesty would not
permit them even to refer to tho part
they had taken In achieving this
splendid -end.
The 'Rev. J. A. Long of Wilmington,
a former pastor of the church, under
whose charge tho edifice was erected,
also spoko. At this time what he had
to say was of an informal and un
studied character. He gavo himself
to reminiscences and anecdote recall
ing and accounting many things in
connection with tho building cam
paign which at tho beginning seemed
tosbo an exceedingly difficult, if not
wholly impossible, ambition. He gave
rein also to his vein of humor, many
times having his hearors -in laughter
at his recital of something which at
the time may havo seemed serious
enough, but which now has only a
comical and mlrth-provoklng aspect.
Victory Service
At the ovoning service was sound
ed tho note of victory. Quite proper
ly, this duty was given to the. former
pastor, Rev. J. A. Long, who had been
present at all the services of the day.
That "Faith Is the Victory' was the
theme of tho message he brought.
Taking his text from I. John, he pic
tured the conditions of the time in
which John lived and of which he
wrote. The small, weak bands of
Christians were wholly surrounded
by great masses of heathens. There
was brutality, excesses of every kind,
extravagance, dire poverty, and ex
treme misery. In the midst of this,
John wrote of the overcoming life.
This referenco led tho spaker to re
call how the Mt. Vernon church,
through the faith of its people, has
overcome In the midst of discourage
ments. Against tho conditions prevailing in
tho time of John the apostle, tho min
ister contrasted conditions as the
Christian finds them today. Tho per
secution we arc subject to, he said,
is compromise. Continually wo are
boing urged or compelled to surren
der something through compromise.
Theie is a great multitude of perfect
ly good people, distracted by the ev
eryday affairs of life, spending so
much time in making a living tnat
they havo n otlme to make a Hfo.
Tho spirit of materialization is an
other persecuting element. The world
that challenges the Christian today
is a cultured society offering all sorts
of inducements to lull Into Indiffer
ence In the campaign for the kingdom
of God.
Tho closing words 'of tho sermon
were an admonition not to bo satisfied
with what has been done, but to con
tinue to go forward.
The final feature of tho evening
service was tho destruction of tho
note and mortgage, evidence of t.he
debt that had been upon the church.
This duty was performed by C. G.
Weaver and Rev, J. A. Long. They
had been intimately associated at tho
Beginning and It was deemed proper
they should be associated at tho end.
Tho destruction of the papers was
prefaced by Mr, Weaver with a short'
explanatory talk in which referenco
wasmade to tho efforts made and tho
debt that was created in the building
of the church, appearing so largo that
some declared none ot the members
nor their children ever rould see It
paid.
When tho church "was dedicated,
thero was a mortgage of $15,000 and
other Indebtedness secured by Indi
vidual, the total being bouiq 122.000
or $23,000. From time to time, this
Jdebt bad been jwdd iu part mud the
(notes destroyed. At tbli service the
Mast noto for $5,000 remained to bo
burned with tho mnrtijagu.
With this brief otntoment, Mr.
Wcnver prcsontod the papers to Mr.
jong, who applied a match to them
and they wero destroyed. As tho pa
pers bnrncd, tho minister spoko again
admonishing tho people not to be con
tent but to press forward. Already
the church is too small, and boforo
long an addition must be mado to it.
Tho sorvlco closed with tho congre
gation singing "Praise God from
Whom All Messing Flow" and tho
benediction spoken by the pastor, the
Rev. Hugh Wayt.

Tho Interesting foursomo -was play

this summer, Gibbs made 18 holes In
35, being two bolow par for tho Mt.
Vernon course.
However, Sarazen made some. beau-
tlful shots. On "Beauty Spot" he
made a good drive, but got In behind
a tree. He then executed a curved
shot, sending tho ball around the
tree. On "Hill Top" he made a, drive
of 325 yards. He played consistent
golf all afternoon.
Jack Monroe, ex-state champion of
Zanesville, was not up to his stand
ard and made the worst showing ot
the men in the foursome.
In tho foursome, Sarazen and An-,
drewa were paired against Jack Moni
roe and James Gibbs.
Sarazen and Andrews one in 3 up,
but all their points were made on the
first round. On the second round they
were tied by Gibbs and Monroe.
The scores of tho four men during
the afternoon were:
James Gibbs (out) 4, 6, 5, 3, 5, 3, 5,
