The Pastime Theatre.
Another crowd filled into the Pastime theatre for the religious services Sunday evening and the same spirit of enthusiasm was manifest. Carl Skillin was at the piano. Raymond Church accompanied the music on the violin and also rendered a violin solo with pleasing effect. Rev. Malcolm Dana of the Congregational church was in charge of the song service. Rev. J. W. Steele of the First Universalist church was the speaker, who took for his theme "Christ in the Storm." After reading from the 15th to the 19th verses of the 6th chapter of St. John, Mr. Steele pictured the hours of trouble and sorrow into which every life may be thrown and how Jesus comes to our rescue in the darkness. He told of transformations which he had witnessed. In closing, he gave the closing stanza of "Eternal Goodness:"
"I knew not where His islands lift
Their fronded palms in air;
I only know I cannot drift
Beyond His love and care."
