C. R. Austin. Mooresville, June 4, 1894, r Sacalaareata Sermon. 4?c At 11 o'clock Sunday-morning a large congregation assembled in (ier rnld Hall, where IJer. Dr. IV3. Mur dock, of balisbnry, preachedthe an nual sermon before'thv" senior cla.-8. He took lifs text from Acts 9 and 2 nmbthy 4:J, "Lord, what wilt thou have me tr do r'" "J have finished my course." ' The theme of the doctor s discourse was ''choosing 'a plan for life." .The entire sermon was full ot practical thoughts. Jt was deep and logicaI,'yet; so simple and I concrete that "a child coukl understand it. To briefly summarize the sermon, Dr." Murdoclvsaid that just as it was ut ter folly to, build a. house' withouta plat), so was it even greater folly to live a ljfe Without a definite plan or purpose. Life is more than building for edification- life is growth and it is important that life be begun right, because of the influence of the beginning upon the future. It-is a true maxim that the "boy is father of the man." The first few weeks ot a. man's life at a university influent-? his whole career The same N true of him when he enters the great uui versity of life; theref re hg should choose wisely a plan for his carter in life. Ihe doctor stated that there are few things in creation -so. certain that they cannot be questioned. The first of these i that man h.-ss cni -into the world forever. The world was made for man and he imfst con tent himself w ith lir.- lot. tie cannot annihilate himself, u'ither can " he be annihilated. The soul -"must live uu it cannot be cut off. We aiv also conscious of the tact ..that we must die. No one . questions this f.ipt. - . The second great, (ruth 1 that this universe is one in tvh ch Lw reigns and no law chu be vioLttd with im punity. The third. fact is ih;it development goes on as. long as titer is exislencf. The life of Cliii-t from llietimeHf wr.s upon earth, h:3 Uen one of con tinued developuient. So must ours be. The time will corny when we will have a thousnid times more menta' and spiritual wisdom than we now' posses. Trie lime is coming when each man will be a kingdom in himself. All the facts should be known to us kefore we clioo.-e our plan of life. In adopting a pLn of life, we should first adopt the Clii istain religion, be cause it is the only one Llu.t promis es pardon. We should surrender ourseives like St.. Paul wheu he ask ed, "L'wd, what wilt thou have nie to do?" " The plan adopted by Ibe great apostle was one of obedience it was the true plan, jtiid the one to be adopted by young men starting in life. When ihe plan of life is adapted, . it shou!d be pursued with great though nes, and as life draws to. a close each one cm speak, as Paul, "I have finished my course."
