At the First Presbyterian Church.
The audiences at the Presbyterian
church on Sunday were unusually
large at both services. In the morn
ing Rev. Lingle preached to the chil
dren. He said he would take Daniel
as his text. Daniel is a irood model
for boys to follow. Ist, Daniel had
good home training and he never
forgot it. In Babylon they changed
his name, they tried to change his
diet. They tried to change his re
ligion but they failed. He remem
bered his training. 2nd, Daniel took
as his motto, “Do right." We are
told that he purposed in his heart he
would not defile himself. 3rd, He
knew how to say no and say it po
litely. If you wish to tempt a boy,
put before him something good to
eat They put the King’s food be
fore Daniel. It was the King’s com
mand to eat it. But Daniel said no.
4th, Daniel did not forget his God.
He prayed to him three times a day.
They threatened to put him in the
den of lions. Still Daniel continued
to pray. He did not forget God and
God did not forget him. In the
afternoon Mr. Lingle preached
from I Samuel vii, 12: “Then Sam
uel took a stone and set it up between
Mizpeh and Shen, and called the
name of it Ebenezer, saying, hitherto
hath the Lord helped us when we
trace our past history, whether it be
the history of nation, church or indi
vidual, we can say at every point,
“Hitherto hath the Lord helped us."
We, like Samuel, should halt at
stated intervals and set up our Ebe
nezers. The stone stood there. Ist,
As a continual thanksgiving. So we
should thank God for his mercies.
2nd, As a witness against the He
brews when they strayed away from
God. So God’s mercies area witness
against us, and on the day of judge
ment will rise up to condemn us.
3rd, It w’as a pledge for the future.
The God who has helped us in the
ages past will help us in years to
come.
