SERVICES IN COUNTRY
Services were conducted yesterday throughout the country districts and congregations were larger than usual owing to the special prayers for peace. The trend of the sermon preached by one of the vicars in the country was that the British should not follow Germany’s lead by instilling hatred into the hearts of the people of the Empire, and that they should never stoop to brutal methods. The sermons were followed with close interest and members of the congregations devoutly offered up prayers for peace. ROYALTY AT CHURCH (Elec. Tel. Copyright—United Press Assn.) (British Official Wireless.) Reed. 12 noon RUGBY, Oct. 1. Their Majesties attended the morning service at St. Paul’s Cathedral to-day.
