TIIJB SCI? ANTON TRIBUNE-TUESDAY MORNING. MAY 11. IS!) 7. 8 CUcst Side and City Suburban A RELIGIOUS PEOPLE. That Is What Rev. Do Pugh Griffith?, of Blogbamlon, Said of the Welsh In Ills Address. The audience which greeted Rev. De Pugh arimths, of Dlnghamton, N. Y., In the Tabernacle Congregational church Inst night, wns an exceedingly large one. A short synopsis of his ad dress Is given below. The nddress wns delivered In the Welsh liniBUaBe. He said In part: "Kvery nntlon hns Its own peculiar characteristics. One of the distinct traits In the WoIbIi chnrncter Is emo tion, nnd this has made them famous for great religious upheavals, and as a consequence hns Riven to the world some of the most fiery nnd eloquent preachers. I.Ike the Jewish nation, we ore pre-eminently religious, nnd wher ever you find a Welsh community you will llnd a church, for It Is the first thought of the Welshman, wherever lie goes to prepare for himself nnd family a place where they mny wor ship Clod. "Todny some of the leading ministers In lhigland nnd America are either Welsh or of Welsh descent. The am bition of the average Welsh pnstor Is to be a preacher. He shines more as a preacher than as n pastor. The his tory of Wales for the Inst two hun dred years Is a religious history How gladly we recall the old services In the little chapels of our native land, where the uncultured fathers with their simple wnys nnd untutored art praised God. These nro the hallowed memories of other dnys. "The hymns of Wllllnm , Wllllnms have dnno much to awaken the relig ious life In Wales. We remember the time before the hymn books were In troduced, nnd with whnt earnestness and power did our fathers strike the deepest harmonic. of the heart. The hymn book, while very helpful In many was. has done much to destroy the simple mianlng of God'A prasles. The tendency of Wales, like every other country, Is toward external formal ities, and the sober thinking and sub stantial religious life of fifty years ago Is unknown to n degree today." dlenco In the Scrnnton Street Unptlst church last evening. Miss Decker trented upon the alms and purposes of the Florence Crlttenton missions, which are being established In- dif ferent sections of this country.
