DEDICATOET BZBVICB. . . rirss PmbyterUa Charck DedlcaUd : to Ood A Simple But Beautiful Berries. Tbe dedication of the First Presby terian church yesterday was an event of general interest. Not only to Pres byterians but to those of other deno minations was yesterday an eventful one snd many from other churches joined tbe congregation in dedicating! their bouse of worship to God. Built in 1904 the new church was not for merly dedicated until after the last penny of indebtedness had been wiped out and members of the congregation gat tiered at the morning service with thankful hearts to hear the dedicatory sermon preached by Dr. O. B. Stickler. of Union Seminary, Richmond. It was truly a great privilege to have on this occasion Dr. E. H. Hard ing, a former pastor, and his dedica tory prayer proceeding Dr. Stickler's sermon was a sweet, appropriate peti tion, that God's favor and benediction might continue to rest on church and people. The sermon was a clear and earnest message, plainly and forceful ly presented by a ripe scholar and a forceful teacher, a sermon to be easily understood and applied, comfort in e to the heart, relying on a Savior able to save to the uttermost. Only the dedica tory prayer, the appropriate sermon and the brief announcement bv the pastor, gave the token of the purpose of the hour, for there was no formal service, but the silent, prayerful heart purpose of the congregation helped by an appropriate message to dedicate to God a house for His will and purpose. The special music fitted well into the hour's service, inspiring a con gregational praise in song in fit keep ing with the spirit of the occasion. Thus was this new house of worship dedicated to God, not in formality, but in earnest, prayerful spirit bv those Who ever pray for it to be a house of prayer and true worship.
