An important, meeting of the Church Service 'League was announced for Wednesday evening at 7:15 at the church, when the rector will be present. S- ir .4 First Methodist Church Services It Is a source of interest as well as of great satisfaction to the Sunday school that for some time now there has been a steady increase in the attendance. In spite of the warm weather of the last two Sundays there has been a fine attendance and it is on the upgrade constantly.

At the morning service, the pastor, the Rev. C. I. Coldsmith, spoke on the subject, The Cross of Christ. Among other things he pointed out that the Cross of Christ revealed the attitude of God toward men.

He should think enough of man to give His Son for the forgiveness of sin then he must count man of great importance: The Cross also reveals Christs method of victory and the consequent power that He gives to man to help him be all that God expects of him. If God be willing to do so much for us then there Is small excuse for our failing to. he what God wants us to be. The choir sang as the morning antheni, "My Faith In Thee. by OHara, and the quartet sang an offertory.

At the evening service the pastor spoke of Christs attitude toward men and emphasized the fact that God Is looking ultimately to the ideal society that must come through the redemption of men everywhere.
