The last Vesper Service of this year was held in Appleton Chapel yesterday afternoon. The chapel was completely filled. Bishop J. H. Vincent conducted the service. He spoke very briefly, taking his text from the twenty-sixth chapter of St. Matthew, the twenty-sixth and following verses.

Whatever else Christ was, said Bishop Vincent, he was the exponent of love for humanity. We cannot tell how much he bore, but we know that it must have been much, for he said: "O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me," and yet with most wonderful self-sacrifice he added, "nevertheless, not as I will but as thou wilt."

Then we see him abused and pierced, and he cries "Father forgive them, for they know not what they do." In the presence of this great mystery we should surrender ourselves to others as Christ surrendered himself to us: for as he loved, we in our measure may love; and as he bore we also in our measure may bear.

The greater part of the service consisted of music. C. H. Porter, Jr., Div., assisted by the choir, sang H. R. Shelley's "Even Song." D. C. Greene, Jr., '95, and F. W. Thomas L. S., with the choir, sang Sir George Elvey's, "And It was the Third Hour." E. M. Waterhouse '97, sang J. Faure's, "O Salutaris."
