Opening Chapel Service.

The first of the Sunday evening services was held last evening in Appleton Chapel. Dr. Peabody conducted the services, and the sermon was delivered by the Rev. Dr. Moxom of Springfield, a member of the retiring board of preachers. Dean Hodges explained the relation of the morning chapel prayers to the church and deplored the sectarian prejudices against what are simply the gatherings of students as if for family prayer. The Rev. Dr. Harris of Andover, spoke on the present attitude of intellectual men toward religion as compared with that of a century ago.
