TERRACE CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH. The Uev. E. Weymouth, who recently came from Port Adelaide to Masterton, occupied the pulpit of The Terrace Congregational Church on Sunday morning. Mr. Weymouth, who is a preacher of considerable ability, took as his text the words from Ezekicl, "I myself will feed my flock." The preacher j suggested that undcr-nourishmont leads to ineffectiveness in life. Graphically the point was illustrated and led the preacher to maintain that God Himself is central to nourishment. That whether in success or adversity God was the Divine provider. That He was ever sustaining men in life's true endeavours, supplying their deepest need. Union with God was union with the Divine Shepherd whose supremo purpose was the care of those who implicitly put their trust in Him. * It was parade. Sunday for the Guides and Scouts. Mr. Weymouth's address to the young people was full of interest. With apt illustration he made it perfectly clear to his young hearers that God meant them to bo "watchmen." The characters, General Hot Temper, Colonel Selfishness, and Captain Mewmess, whose subtle tactics must be guarded against, will not easily be forgotten by those who heard this practical address. The Terrace Church Troops of both Guides mid Scouts show signs of good and efficient leadership. The minister, the Bey. Ernest E. V.'ceks, preached to a (hie congregation in the evening. The trio, "Lift Thine Kycs," was beautifully rendered by Misses Haddock, Mackenzie, and Miickie, while the choir, under the. leadership of Mr. Len Barnes, gave the anthem, "There is Joy" (Sullivan), with fine expression and tone. —(Published by Arrangement.)
