'liev, ’W. H., Thomas occupied the
‘pulplt of tlic.ll¢‘lrst Methodist Episco
pal Chruch, Sun lay morning, and de-
livered a_rare,sermon on the topic
"The Modern Religious Awakening."
ri‘he'sermon was replete with facts
and arguments that substantially err,
toblished the position taken by theI
preacher in developing the subject
that he was presenting. Dr. Thomas
stated that there had been no time in
the history of the world when the
li‘undamentals of every existing thing,
material, social and spiritual were
'11 orking to such a hopeful degree to-
ward the betterment of the world as
at the present time. The present was
the age of a new humanism and that
in every avenue of life's activities
there tware changes going on that
pointed to improved general condi-
tions for the people. for business and
oilicial life and for the. progress of re-
ligion. Dr. Thomas is retired from tho
active ministry and is well along in
years, having filled a phslui‘hie hero
forty years ago. He Is an original and I
advanced thinker and keeps in toucir
mlth all modern doings;
have no superfluous filling in 'of tranv
nuilizing phrasology, but each wordf
.‘Is 1111 obvious fact and means some I
thing. A sermon like the one of Sun-
day morning is a refreshing interro-
ngution'at the present time when the
public press is so fun of carping com-
ments on the downwald trend of
things and so many preachers and use
pic at huge ate promulgating adverse
criticism of religious work and the
