The Chapel Service Last Evening.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Rev. George A. Gordon preached in the Chapel last evening from the text found in Matthew VIII, 34. Putting aside all questions of history the preacher searched for a moral significance in the casting out of devils. The speaker said that few people are willing today to give up their insanity at the expense of their service, or in other words, were willing to give up their sins if they were compelled at the same time to give up the pleasures of sin.

It is an eternal law that sin and suffering go together; if sin is kept, pain is kept, if the sin is gone, pain also must have gone. The gospel is not like an easy badge to be put on or off at will. Christ will not come unless he can cast out the devils and send away the swine.

During the service the choir gave some very good music. The beautiful duet for male voices, "Cast they bread upon the waters," by Stanier was well rendered.
