The annual meeting of the Welsh Music
al Union Of Wisconsin held last week at
Columbus was fine success, although not
as largely attended as some former meet
ings OF the Union. The number of singers
from Milwaukee and other places in the
state was somewhat limited. A number
of our residents lent their presence to the
occasion. The committe appointed
tor the purpose of selecting a place
for the next annual gathering of the Union
will report in short time. Meanwhile we
trust our Welsh citizens will use their in
auence in favor of holding the coming con-
vention in this city. We believe it is gen
erally admitted that the meeting of the
Union held IN Watertown a few years ago
was highly successful and satisfactory to
the members
The following officers were elected at the
recent meeting:
Pres.,- R Jones, Clinton.

He is one-armed, but makes the remaining
one do duty for half dozen. Heis quick

bers lean back an open their mouths, all
ready to laugh.
In the Assembly, the first one we notice
is Speaker Horn, who is commanding in
appearance, voice and style, and makes

The Gospel statement OF Christ is this When men were
wandering in darkness and confusion, Cod seong their
condition. raised up Christ as their delverer When
Christ came lie revealed God TO men, and proclaimed
the truths which will eventually purify society. He
taught the immortality Of man, and showed him the
way TO heaven. No one will deny that man
needed such q mission. We needed Christ 10
make known 10 us the Father and teach 10 trust in
Him and TO Ovo and obey Him. Persons who think they
would recognize God in creation, and know HIM iuly
the need Of Savior nature knows not man, neither
does she anything for him. When he wteps she
