Rev. E. E. Hale at Chapel.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Chapel services last night were conducted by Rev. E. E. Hale '39, who took as his text: "If thou shalt seek the Lord the God, thou shalt find him."

At the opening of the sermon he compared man to a crown prince who, through intimacy with his father, is able to learn about the affairs of the state. We are the children of God and, possessing infinite souls, can draw ourselves nearer to God, our Father, by an infinite power, if we will to do so. What we call the laws of nature are in fact an attempt on our part to divine the will and purpose of God. Every day we should lay aside a few minutes to listen to his word; in this way we can work better and more cheerfully. We shall come to feel that we are not working for ourselves, but that we are all co-partners in the workshop of the universe.
