In one spot is a pew set aside for "Gentlemen of the Bay of Honduras." as its tablet reads. This pew was so dedicated in honor of Honduras merchants who furnished the money to build the spire in 1740.

Temptation By Harlowe R. Hoyt * “And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil." It was in these words that Jesus of Nazareth Invoked his plea to bis heavenly father a plea to lie delivered safely from all evil. It was not Christ's idea that we are to travel through life freed from temptations of all sorts. That would be a confession of weakness. Character is forged in the hot fire of temptation. It is strengthened each time evil is repulsed. Jesus knew this. Had he not withstood the temptations of every kind of worldliness during the forty days and forty nights he fasted and prayed in the wilderi ness? Had he not been tempted, | time and again, by those who ( sought miraculous demonstrations as proof of his divine power? Even bis nearest followers tempted him to declare himself a worldly ruler come to rescue Judaea from the impositions of its Roman conquerors. He knew, only too well, how temptations heaped upon one and
