At the'-Pirst Presbyterian church a large congregation was present and listened to the sermon of 'yesterday morning. The ' pastor following , his usual custom', devotee: a five minute prelude to the brief presentation of the work of the board of education, one ot the nine great benevolent agencies of the church. , The chief business of this board is to provide help for wor thy and needy young men in college and seminary, who have chosen the ministry for their life work. This worthy cause was commended to the liberality of the people, as deserving of their support, a ' The text of the sermon was taken from Hebrews 12:27 and the dominant thought was ' "The Things That Abide." : -. .. The writer of Hebrews, it was said; sets tforth a contrast between some things which could be shaken and were shaken, passing utterly away, and other things following these, hav ing on them the impress of perma nence, dustined to abode f orevfer. Among the former were the priest hoods of the old dispensation, the ani mal sacrifices, typical symbols, and ritual observances of Judaism, all des tined to pass when that which they prefigured should come. In contrast with these, were some things "which cannot be shaken, and since Christian ity is the. logical sequel and successor of Judaism, by such things are meant the fundamental facts and principles of Christianity. . Among the abiding things which are fostered in the, very bosom of the re ligion of Christ, are these: The his toric reality of Christa's ' life and teachings, and character. The inspired and infallible authority of the Holy Spirit; the reality' and power of pray er; the hope and heritage of immor-' tality which Christ brings to light in the gospel.' Whatever changes the fu ture may bring, these facts, shall abide. No sweep of years or shock of disso lution can change them. ,.. . . (.
