SERMON T0 000 FELLOWS.
interesting Dlacourae'by Rev. H. B.
Carpenter in South Norwalk
Baptist Church.

The members of Butler Lodge. l. 0.
0. Fl. and of Eureka Rebekah Lodge,
attended the South Norwalk Baptist
Church, last evening. in a‘ body, and
listened to a most interesting sermon
by Rev. H. B. Carpenter, pastor of the
church. Handsome stereoptlcon view
were shown. consisting of emblems of
Odd Fellowship, views of David and
Jonathan. and the story of the Good
Samaritan, Special music was render-
ed by the choir, particularly beautiful
being the anthem "Snrlor When Night
involves the Skies." by Shelley, and

, the duct "Guide Me. 0 Thou Great Je-

hovah,” by Lansing. Rev. Mr. Car-
penter in his sermon, said in part:
Members of Butler Lodge of Odd Fel-
low and Eureka Rebekah Lodge, 1 of-
fer you the fraternal salutation of this
church. it is appropriate and becom-
ing that we as a Christian church,
shouldtestify to the praiseworthy ser-
vice which you render humanity in-the
hour ofwslckness and death, and i‘the

. helping hand you lend in life’s pil-

grlmugo.

Your organization has maintained an
effective part in the devaltlpment of the
brotherhood of humanity, which in this
twentieth century is approaching the
apex-or its power. «The wide world of
human life as made flesh and blood is
being; comprehended today as never
before in the world's life. Traditional
distinction are fading away like the
changing clouds ‘of the horizon and
men face each other as brothers. We
are climbing the hill of human doa-
tlny and from our position upon its
slopes we gaze at. the long line of fol.
low pilgrims who lived to not their part

Jesus made this illustration the au-

was the occasion hr the suffering ulld
bruised life of a man. it sets out tbu
contrast between the two. This story
is stamped with Christ's seal of ap-
proval when he said, "(in Then and Do
Likewise."

Now the progress of this principle of
brotherhood has been continuous and
without a break. We may say that it
began with the tltelstical religion N?
vealed to the children of israel. From
the hidden depths of Sinnl it flowed
forth like u sllvery stroll": from the
mountain side, winding Its way through
the plains of human life. absorbing the
selfishness of individuals, gamut-inf:
molncululll by its over broadening tic.-
ceptance among men, flushing the
stagnant pools of unfruternul associa-
tion, broadening the vision of the soul
of men, enriching the desert of life
with companionship: merging the nude
and savage life into a gracious society;
joining men with men and marching
shoulder to shoulder to the music of
union anti patriotism. and changing ev
ery channel through which it flows.
Onward this progress of brotherhood
moved with increasing volume. and life
until=it etldled in the life of the Savior
of man. then with new ideals It flowed
Ull‘mlfill'tllfi kingdom of brotherhood,
transforming thew-ultras of history.

On this brotherllotl of man. it cross.
ed the sons in its quest for u larger life
it came at a time; that tried men's
souls.“ it was indeed the alliance of
brotherhood that generalist] the thirst
for liberty and toasts-dined men to
unite for the supremacy of public opin;
ion. Brotherhood was restricted in the
personal government of the old world.
and it sought to throw on that yoke, of
bondage so that its energies would be
free in its ministry of love. Just re
call those early days When the eyes of
men Were gazing upon this land which
in time was to become the home of ev-
ery virtue that belonged to the charac-
ter of man. it would seem as if men
dreamed of an empire of love. then
plunged into unknown and untried ave
hues, following the course of the star:
and the guiding impulses of‘tbelr soul:
to realise their dreams, and having
come into the permanent truth of their
fancies, they found a cloudlsss sky that
stretched its canopy above the brother
hood of man, ill the early history of
this country we find that men united
for the achievement of American dew
tiny. They did if unconscious of the
glory of that destiny, but the spirit oi

rolhcrhood that was evolved out oi
the very nature of things, brought
them within the circle of mutual de~
prudence and sympathy. ln~thelr corn.
mou struggles they discovered the oc-
casion of Christian brotherhood. ami
lil their common trials they entered tilt
compact for mutual support.

Eighty-five years have passed sinct
the clutter Odd Fellowship began its
voyage and mission of brotherhood lr
this land. How marvelous has been its
progress. it has kept abreast with tht
tremendous advancement of our nation
al life. The story of its progress is the
story of human adversity, fol-tile mcln
bersllip has been multiplied to a mil-
lion strong. while it paused to bind ut
the broken hearts. wipe the tears away
and carry the load of the burdened.

Organizations, like men. become fam-
ous when they apply the balm and
healing to afflicted souls. identical
with this progress» is the manifesta-
tion of the brotherhdot} of Odd Fellow-
ship. it manifests itse f in all kinds of
hospitality and relief. We have seen

as a monument of fraternal love and

manifestation of a Christian brother
hood. But friends, from whence came
the idea of brotherhood? We have
trnoed‘its progress and manifestations
Whatwas it that gave"it such an im-
pulse that nothing could stop it, as it
back ofit was a limitless power? The
idea of brotherhood was perfected in
Jesus Christ. the‘mali‘. andthlit Which
made it Christian brotherhood was'the
new element which He added ‘to it.

soldier. A patriot is one who is do

The fragrance of our flowers
Upon the air, while thus we deck

Just side by side went they.
Beneath their country's flag. to win—-
Or perish in the fray.

Their battle cry was—"Freedom, and
Their motto—“For the right!"

And God looked down upon them

there.

And saw that they were weary. and

And we know He crowded with laurels
Hts soldier-boys who fell.

Upon the field of duty: and

He called them home to rest

His tender. loving breast.

And here we lay our offering sweet.
Above each quiet head.

And thus we honor ioyally
