HIS FAREWELL SERMON.
Rev. V. S. Jones Speaks for tbc Last
Time lo (he Congregation of the
First Welsh Baptist Church.
Tho First WelBh Uuptlst church was
crowded to the doors last evening by
those deslious to hear the Inst sermon
to bo delivered by the Kev. W. 8. Jonta
us pastor of that church. Thu words
uttered by the iaHtor were full of fecl-
HBV. W. 3. JONK3.
Ins nnd Indicated Ills deep resret nt
parting with' the members of thu con
RrcRntlnn. Ho reviewed his four nnd a
half years' of connection with tho
church and said he hoped his work
hnd not been fruitless. .Ills sermon Is
given In the main below:
Sly Dear Christian Friends: Over four
nnd a half years ago wo met together In
thu house for tho llrst time 1 to preach
the Gospel of Jesus Christ and you to ob
tain what enlightenment and Inspiration
lor better and sodller living as my man
ner of proachln-r was calculated to Impart.
Tho ccnnrctlon then formed between us,
which has remained up to the present. If
I am not greatly mistaken, a happy one to
both parties. Is about to bo broken; my op
portunity to teach you the truth ol tho
Gospel and yours to learn from me, ccas
in,T with this service. At the close of a
pastorate in which he lies spent a number
of years there can be nothing more nat
ural for a minister to do than to review
hl work-to call to mind what ho sought
to achieve, and to think over, even thouqh
he cannot estimate accurately, tho actual
results of his labors.
These latter let mo emphasize are be
yond our power even to approximately
compute.
It becomes me and you Just at this tlmo
to ufk ourcies what these four and a
half years have done for us; what new
light we have received, what new amount
of spiritual power we havo gained, whe
ther or not we are better, nobler, hollir
characters liow than when this pastorate
began.
Ore of our llrit talks. In this, neighbor
hood was concerned with a question put
by our Lord to the i'ha-lsces of Ills day:
"Wnnt think yp of Christ?" They were
expecting the arrival In Palestine of the
Snvlor promised by God thidugh Moses
nnd the Prophets, and the Master's ques
tion was calculated to elicit from them
their conception of the kind of Savior
men needed and God would send. Their
answer was that the Great Christ should
be the Son of David, an answer which re
vealed how grossly they had failed In
their understanding of the prophets, and
how mistaken they were as to tne ual
in ed of humanity. What was really need
ed, recording to their notion, nnd what
they truly wanted, was a. wise, strong,
brave and daring Jewish King to make
laws for the world and to bo fearless In
tre enforcement of them. The Jew should
be exalted, and the nations subilued and
controlled by a power from without,
whose might would be recognized and
f fared throughout the world. It has not
struck them that the great- need of man
lay In the direction of the renewal of cliur
aeter from within, nnd that nothing short
of tho Life of God Himself lived forth by
a human being a veritable Son of Odd,
Sou of Mnn, pressing His way patiently
through all the trying, tempting, paintut
experience of common humanity "without
sin" was sulllcient to Inspire men with
Vwvv's-'x
Good

ing, good wearing suits as low as $10.00. We
