Last evening 'he Patriotic Order
Sonp of America attended divine ser
vices In a body at the First Conijre
Kfltlonal church anl listened to a ser
mon appropriate to the occasion by

of St-rapton. iluglnt; two solos In n
well-trained fnprnnu voice, one of them
bolnc the composition of Organist
Nnylor and epcclnlly applicable to the
smlces. and Miss Edith Fowler, of
this city, fans: n contralto nolo In liT
well-known capable munncr.
Ttev. Mr. Elliott took for the subject
of his dlscotin-o "Christianity and
Patrlotlm," utdnrr the text. "When
Ephralin spake ticmbllni? he exulted
himself In Trrnel; but when he of
fended In Hani, he died." Some of the
thoughts engendered by the subject
were:
"Patriotism and Chilstlanlty go hand
In hand. One cannot exist without
the powerful Influence of the other. It
rests with the Chrlstlun patriotism of
our citizens to be fulthftll, and Ameri
ca cannot fall. It should be our desire
for our country not magnitude, but
majesty: not power, but Iniluencc."
The Meininn was listened to by a
Uige p.irt of the nicmbershlp of the
rui trial In order, as well ns by a large
origrcgatlou.
The musical ptogrnmmc was In full
accord with the spirit that prcvnllcd In
the sermon, fervent love of country.
