The strangest tribute that was ever paid te a cburcb bappened this Sun-i day afternoon. In the iittle town o! Port Austin, ton miles away, a basebaîl game was te bave been played. Knewing tbat tbe dedicat- ory services were te start at tbree e'cleck the management at the base- bail park estpuned the bail game for twe heurs. As Professer Pbeips said: "This is prebably the first time in the bistory o! the worid that a sport- ing event bas been Pestponed that its devetees migbt attend cburcb ser- vices." I mention this merely te show what the Huron City Metbodjst Cburcb means te Huron Ceunty. William Lyon Pbelps, professer e! Englisb literature at Yale University, bas made this cburcb an institution. Upon bis unselish labors tbrough the sumrners it bas grewn. One migbt truthfuily say that eut o! bis sermons it bas been built. Fer tbe last nine years tbrougb the bot sum- mer mentbs be bas preacbed there every Sunday afternoon. It weuld be impossible te measure bis influ- ence.1 That littie country cburcb bas out- lived devastating fires; passing pop- ulation; changing times and rnany a fad and !ancy. Thore is aiso near- - by an old structure--once a relier- -skating rink. Years ago it was rthronged with youthful pleasure- seekers. Now it is a cruxnbiing ruin. To me it furnishes a striking coni- trast. No sano man now would tbink for a minute o! rostoring that roiler-skating rink i Huron City. It was once a profitable venture. But its day bas gene by. The littie old church, witb Professer Phelps i the pulpit, is (te use tbe terra doing more business than ever. It bas1 been again enlargod. It bas seating capacity for 1,000 people and it is fllled evory Sunday-rain or shino. The manager o! a roiler-skating rink today would look that torritory over and ask whoro bis customors wouid corne !rom. There are less than 200 people living within a radius o! five miles. The cburch o! Huron City is net disturbed by sucb a prob- lem. Last year bundreds o! people were turned away every Sunday af- tornoon. A seatig capacity o! 1,000 became an absolute summer nocessity. A drive o! soventy-flve or 100 miles is nothing te these church- goig residents o! Michlgan's Thumb. I am glad tbat little church is thore. We summer at Pointe Aux Barques, Mich., eight miles away. Because It bas existed and grown Poite Aux Marques is a botter place te live in. Those Sunday afternoon services are the out.standing feature o! our 111e bore. If you should ask a reporter bore what we have at Pointe Aux Barques aimoet anyone o! theni weuld say, "We bave Lake Huron and good batbing; we bave golf and tennis and borseback riding and the chance ev- erY Sunday a!ternoon te bear Biliy Phelps at the cburcb at Huron City." I e!ton bear it said that aIready there are tee many churches. At times this migbt seera te bo so. Perbaps f rom the standpoint e! efficiency and economy wo ceuld re- duce the number, but I sbeuld net like them te take away any one o! the churches in aur nigbborbood. Tbere is a littie Presbyterian Cburcb net far away !rom us. I bave nover attended one e! its services, but I ,,ni glad it is there and I arn glad te sec it fleurishing.

It mneans that if the people who hav'e sacriflced te eroct it ceuid have their way there: ol Jbe less selfishness and less vlciousness That old cburcb stays open for the weary and tbe heartsick. Its budget is greatly reduced: collections are net wbat tbey once were; !unds! are raised witb duficulty and almost every year sees a growing deficit. Business is bad. but stili going onVi as usual. They're net getting ricb in purse by keeping open tbat cburcb. Geed ecenemnics wouid close it new.
