Show Mixing the Praise. An exchange gets off the following hit : Among the religionists of New England Eng-land are some of the funniest of people. peo-ple. At the dedication of an organ presented to the Congregational church at Sheffield, Conn., not long ago, by a Mr. J. C. Hammond, the following verse was sung to a full congregation con-gregation : Praise be to Him who lives above.; He shows His know ledge and His love; L'ses mankind His word to preach, Reached forth his hand touched J. C. H., Caused him to give, in willing mood, His organ to the friends ol God. It would be difficult to tell whether the Almighty or J. C. H. got the best of the praise in that hymn. |
