Hospital Subject of Addresses at Church Services é Special Hospital ‘Day services were held in the local churches last Sunday. In the morning Dr. H. C. Wrinch preached in the New Hazelton church, on the subject of man’s dependence. No man, he asserted, could truth- fullv boast of independence if he stopped:to consider what he had inherited in the way of race, na- tionality and body, nor could any man claim to have hoed his own row when he considered the help which had been given him in infancy and later by his parents, teachers and elders. Therefore, the doctor maintained that he who refused to give to a hospital except to pay his own way when sick was denying his debt to others for what others had done for him. This type, fortunately, was only infrequently found, and did not embrace all who turned down an institution’s call for aid. In St. Peter’s Church, Hazel- ton, Rev. T. D. Proctor address ed the congregation in the morn- ing on the hospital subject, and | Miss I. Smith sang ‘‘The Angel’s Ladder’’. © At the evening union service the duet, “‘Speed Thee,’’ was sung by Miss Smith and Miss Gibson.. .
