an ' occasion of more than ordinary
moment for various reasons. In the
first place six children, ranging in
are from a few months to 10 years,
were baptised by the pastor. Dr.
Frank Loveland. assisted by his
wife. Following this came what Dr.
Loveland termed the "best and great

ceived." It was the presentation of s
class of 3 for membership In the

from other churches, but the vast

faith. It was a complete surprise to
the pastor snd Bishop Richard J.
Cooke, who was present.
It was toward the close of the
morntng service, after a stirring ser
mon by Bishop Cooke, who was called
f rom the audience to preach, that the
assistant pastor. Rev. Henry t.
Greens, asked permission -to make an
announcement. He then called upon
Miss Alice A. Moore, who in a brief
speech, presented Dr. Loveland with

white carnations, the red ones each
bearing the name of a young man and
each of the white ones the name of a
young woman, all of whom were about
to units with the church.
Bishop Zs Surprised.
The announcement and gift figur
atively took Dr. loveland and Bishop
Cooke off their feet, the bishop ex
claiming, as the yountf people marched
about the chancel, "This is one of the
greatest sights I have seen In all my
ministry." The class had been sr-
ranged try the assistant pastor and
' members of the various young people's
clssses of the Sunday school.
The evening service was an un
usual one. The large edifice was
. crowded with people who cams not
' only to hear (he Christmas music, but
also to listen to the great monologue
sermon by Dr. Loveland on "Dickens'
Christmas Carol." The music conslst
' ed of the rendition of a number of
, French, English, German, old Venetian
., and modern carols by the full chorus
choir, mixed and male quartets and a
. solo by A. Musgrove Roberts. Mrs.
Fred Blgelow Newton presided at iho
organ.
History of Carols.
. By way of Introduction to his ser
men. Dr. Loveland said that" prior to
... the fifteenth cetnury the church gave
i. Itself to the rendition of chants. With
the coming of the fifteenth and six
teenth centuries, folk songs began to
take the place of the chants .and soon
the churches burst forth into the
: great carols. These began In southern
. France, then went Into Italy, then
back Into Germany, up In the Scandi
. navlaa country where it developed
. and then into Scotland, Wales and
' Ireland. England has over 1300 carols
snd Germany more than 700. Many of
' the great singers of renown, said Dr.
Loveland, once were carol singers in
: the streets Of Germany or France.
(.When these carols came into the
churches, said the speaker, they natur
, ally wove themselves about Christmas
time. It waa Dickens, taking up the
Idea of these Christmas carols, which
caused him to write the great stock
known as "Dickens' Christmas Carol."
Dr. Loveland then told the story.
He did not repeat it word for word,
nor attempt to, but monologued the
story in his own style to the great de
light of the big audience.
,Jn the morning Bishop Cooks spoke
on the relation of Christianity to the
, present . war and emphasized the
- thought hat the war was a result of
the teaching of the materlallstlo sci
ence for the' past decade and over
emphasizing of the law of the sur
vival of the fittest. When men 'be-
' corns obsessed with the idea that God

this. - God is only on the side of the
heavy battalions when thsy are on
