Vespers.

Professor Lyon, in his remarks at Vespers yesterday, emphasized the necessity of a life of service. He said: There are two views of life. The one magnifies the individual, delights in war because there may be found great generals and glorious achievements. The other allows the individual to lapse into the back-ground and applauds good works, deeds of charity and service. The way in which history has been written is largely responsible for the former view. We are, however, just beginning to understand the new Testament. More and more we are beginning to realize that the truly great men are the missionaries, the philanthropists, and the other servants of God. Christ came not to be ministered unto but to minister, and Paul, perhaps of all men most resembling Christ. Paul the great logician and scholar delighted in calling himself the servant of Christ. So ought we all to be servants of Christ. In our several callings we should emulate Him. In the words of the text "Whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant."

During the service the choir sang the following anthems: "Praise ye the Father" - Gounod. "I Will Lay Me Down" - Niles. "My Hope is in the Everlasting" - Stainer. Soloist, Mr. George W. Want.
