NORTH SCRANTON
WESLEY SERVICE IN THE PRE3
BYTERIAN CHURCH.
The Pastor, Rev. Dr. Guild Spoko of
the Work of the Great Hymnol
ogist Funeral of Miss Cora Rob
erta From the Family Home on
Summit Avenue Services at Mom
morlal Baptist Church Fire at the
Home of James Kane on Putnam
Street Only Slight Damage Bone.
The members of Providence Presby
terian church nnd their pastor con
ducted it Wesley service last night In
honor ot Charles Wesley, the great
hymnologlst. Five of his hymns were
rendered by tho choir under the direc
tion of Prof, Whlttemoro. The latter
also sang a Wesley solo. Tho pastor,
Rev. Dr. Guild, paid u high tribute to
Wesley and tho cfTect of his hymns and
his labors on religious thoughts.
In the morning Dr. Guild spoke on
tho topic "Temple Worship," a theme
suggested by the resuming of worship
In a room that had been redecorated
nnd in purt refurnished during tho past
month. Dr. Guild dwelt on the fact
that at tho tlmo of tho text the appear
ance' of tho Mcsslnh was eagerly looked
for by tho Jews. They had tho written
statement: "Tho God, whom you seek
shall suddenly come to this temple."
They said to one another what a great
feast It would be when he should pre
sent himself within tho holy enclosure
of the temple.
The church building Is a holy struc
ture and yet It Is to bo In dally use.
It Is not so holy that It must be closed
at the conclusion of the Sabbath day
and not used until the next Sabbath.
The front door of the church ought to
always bo unlocked so that tho build
ing within can be used at any time.
The defilement of a. church Is not In
the defilement of the building.
A beautiful edifice with tinted walls,
frescoed coining, costly windows can
not commend to the favor of heaven, a
congregation whoso hands are unclean,
and whose hearts are unpure.
Formality in .worship Is the develop
ment of tho temple and an abandona
tion before God. A spiritual selfish
ness which conceives the worship of
the church for the congregation alone
Is not satisfying to God.
Funeral of Miss Roberts.
The remains of the late Miss Cora
Roberts, the 19-year-old daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. T. N. Roberts, of Sum
mit avenue, were laid at rest Saturday
arternoon. A shortunem! service was

mains were borne to tho Memorial
Baptist church, where services were

hour for the funeral cortege to arrive
at the church, large throngs of the
friends of the deceased filled the
church.
The service was In charge of Rev.
W. F. Davis, pastor of tho church, as
sisted by Rev, Thomas, of Pittston,
and Rev. 11. II. Hurris, ot Taylor. Rev.
W. F. Davis paid a touching tribute to
tho devoted Christian life the young
lady had led. She was always ready to
do anything that her superiors called
for. Itev. Harris spoke briefly and Rev.
Thomas offered prayer. The floral
pieces wore many and beautiful.
