Appleton Chapel.

Bishop John H. Vincent of Topeka, Kansas, preached last evening in Appleton Chapel. He spoke of the observance of the Sabbath. He protested against the increasing laxity in regard to this day, and deprecated the ridicule of the old-fashioned Sunday. The church is in danger of losing one of the highest and holiest symbols of verity that man can know. Our exciting American life needs just such relief as this day affords. It gives us splendid opportunity for considering those great questions which every earnest man should consider. It makes possible the personal growth in faith, sympathy and sacred endeavor. It is the day for the cultivation of the spiritual nature which is so often lost sight of in the lower thoughts of man. It is preeminently the student's day when he may turn with relief and inspiration from his daily tasks. Let us still honor and treasure the sacred day of the seven. Let us use it to lift our lives to the higher level of character.
