ESTIMATED COST OF FIXING HEATING PLANT IN CITY HALL IS $5,000 The heating plant in the city hall has been given a thorough overhauling. but It is estimated that $5,000 is needed to place it In first class condition. Two systems are in use, direct steam, heating the offices on the ground floor, while a hot water system, whereby hot water is pumped to the top of the building and allowed to flow through a system of hot water radiators, is expected to heat three other floors. It was found one-half of the building was not receiving any heat Saturday, while the other half had heat to spare.

Investigation showed that a wrong connection in the hot water pipes, reversed the system, and this trouble was corrected today. 'God's Masterpiece' Is Subject of Rev. Pease Pastor Describes Divine Power, Working in the Transformation of the Human Soul, in Sermon at Calvary Baptist Church Sunday Morning In a sermon on "God's Masterpiece," the Rev. Herbert M. Pease, speaking Sunday morning at the Calvary Baptist church, related the power and effect of Spirit, working in the transformation of the human soul and life.

Mr. Pease took for his text, 2:10: "For we are His workmanship, created Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." He said, in introducing his subject, that in the first chapter of his epistle to the Ephesians, Paul declares that "God had man in mind before He created universe. In this text the Apostle affirms that God has 80 worked out plan we have become His workmanship, This word, in the Greek. is a very suggestive word 'potema' and from it comes our word poem. It carries the idea of masterpiece in that it is the very best work possible.

It is found in only one other passage in the New Testament, Romans 1:28, where it refers to the created universe, 'the things that Even as the great universe is 'God's masterpiece' of creation, so man is 'God's masterpiece' of redemption. We are God's workmanship'-poem-masterplece. "For the making of a masterpiece there must be vision and execution. The sculptor must first see the angel in the block of marble and tehn, with chisel and mallet he must be able to make that angel to appear to the eyesight, "Even so, the content of our text found out the way in which God has brought about the making of His masterplece, We would ask you first to think of the material which He used. Man's marble must be without flaw, his canvass and paints must be perfect.

What about God's material? 'And you. hath He quickened who were re dead in trespasses and sins' versus 'Even when we were dead in sins' -verse 4. We, His masterpieces, were dead, and dead in sins. walked according to the course of this world' and we talked as badly as walked. We were obedient to 'the prince of the power of the air' and were nature the 'We were disobedient God and children of wrath even as others.

obedient to the desires toe the All this is Paul's picture in Ephesians. He gives it in fuller detail Romans 12. It is not very flattering to the natural man, yet wondrously true to facts both then now. 'But God interposed. He took man, the material for His masterpieces, from the scrap heap, as it were, and made the children of wrath to become the sons and daughters of "For such a transformation some magical and marvelous means must have been employed! What method has the Master Workman used to accomplish such a wonderful result? Again our context answers our question: 'And you who were dead hath He when we were dead in sins.

He quickened up together with About all you for is to bury or quicken them. And God quickens, imports life, regenerates -creates anew! God's masterpiece is not in cold marble but in pulsing life. 11 is not In adorning a corpse but in giving resurrection life! The same mighty power which raised up Christ works for us and works to bring about a resurrection of life. He creates us In Christ Jesus and raises 118 up to a place in heaven and with Christ Himself. "We are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus.

And this is all of God's grace 'according to the riches of His grace. by grace are ye saved through faith and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of Go.1.' unmerited favor, through His gracious Intervention. working upon this poor material has wrought a masterpiece fit for the courts of glory, "That in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace, In His kindtoward US through Jesus "And what part we in this divine enterprise? Is it accomplished efforts 'Not of works, lest any man should Oh, there is no boasting in glory!

During a storm a crash was heard and the villagers found this beautiful window destroyed. In their grief they hardly noticed an old man, who gathered the fragments and bore them away in aL basket.

Many plans were submitted to replace the window but none seemed to satisfy. And then one Lord's day, as the people gathered, they were amazed and delighted to find the window restored. It seemed the same and yet wondrously beautiful and glorifled. The old man was a master workman. The new window.

made out of the fragments of the old, under his creative hands, had become masterpiece, indeed. "a masterpiece, created in Christ Jesus unto good Missionary Describes Conditions in India Bishop Warne, Speaking in Centenary M. Says That Slump in Contributions Will Result in Abandoned Churches, Members Will Revert to Heathendom Christian: societies in thousands of villages of: India are about to drift back to heathendom, in the opinion of Bishop Frank Wesley Warne, head of a Methodist mission area, who spent Sunday and Monday in Binghamton as the guest of the Rev. Leonard C. Murdock, pastor, of the Centenary M.

E. church, and preached Sunday morning at Centenary church on "India on the March." He came to Binghamton from the foreign missionary headquarters, 150 Fifth avenue, New York city, where he recelved the news last Friday that contributions to the Methodist Foreign Mission Board have dropped off $200,000 from one year ago, and this means dropping 1,300 Methodist preachers from their charges, "unless a miracle intervenes," he says. The bishop is an church activities in authority, on Japan, Malaysia and surrounding territory. His address in the morning was devoted to a discussion of Christian conditions in India. Primitive Christianity prevails throughout that.

devotion, field, and is characterized by a zeal and consecration, such as prevailed at the day a result that none of the faithful doubt the power and activities of a Holy Ghost spirit prevailing in their midst and constantly urging them on to greater successes, he said. That a nation of one-fifth of the world's population, now inoving in great, serried ranks, toward Christianity, is about to suffer a loss of 1,300 Christian ministers, is, in judgment, "worse than a tragedyIt is beyond description. Of course by far the greater share of the abandoned churches will drift back into heathendom- or worsel" His sermon in the morning was based on the text found in Luke 24:49: "And behold, I send the promise of My Father upon you; but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem until ye be endued with power from on high." "Christ gave 18 two figures through which we best remember Him and His work upon then, and His work today." declared preacher. "In the parable of the leaven we have given 118 the influence of the Gospel and its mission throughout the world. A little leaven shall leaven the whole lump, we are told.

And that rightly expresses the great work now being done among the people of India by the Christian missionaries. Through that influence Christ is reaching the hearts and the lives of a nation of 320.000,000, that constitutes onefifth of the population of the globe. Through that power, too, the migsionaries and workers have set in operation an influence that today carries the name, the fame and the life of Jesus Christ into every home of heathen India. "The second figure is that of the mustard seed, that grew into a great tree, and this figure is that of the Christian church. Its growth throughout the world, and especially in India, seems almost beyond the comprehension of men.

The topics discussed were "An Understanding Between Jew and Presentday Attitude of Jews Toward Jesus Christ," and "Why Jews Rejected Christianity the then Past." speakers declared that ignorance of the inner feeling and motive as to religious affairs harbored by each ig the cause for whatever misunderstandings and prejudices exist in the relations of Jews and Christians. Jews have rejected Christianity in the past largely because in the eastern countries of Europe, where Jews live in large numbers, they have been persecuted and massacred by state and church authorities.

It was said by one of the speakers that the czar of Russia, during the days of the old royalty, used the state church as an institution for persecuting the Jews in order to divert attention from his own despotic government. "But In America the Jews are making a new appraisal of Jesus Christ, and Christianity, and thousands of them have begun to study the New Testament for the first time," another speaker said. "Already they begin to see that the Founder of Christianity was Flesh of their flesh, Soul of their soul and withal, the Messiah Israel." under whose christiano meetings The Hebrew Alliance, are being held, is in Itself evidence of the great number of Hebrews now being reconciled to Christ, and devoting their lives to spreading the gospel, he declared.
