Rev. Mr.. CruEan delivered an excellen, dis.
course last Sunday evening, taking his text
from the IL III verse of the Cxvi Psalm. 81
will pay my vow unto the Lord" He spoke
of the general tendency at this period 1.-THE
closel Of the year for resolutions of reforma-
ton TO be made to enter upon the new year
with, but standing now at the close of 1882
how many could look back upon it with salts
faction that VOWS promised had been faithfully
kept' our lives for the year were upon Gods
threshing floor; were they like sheaves fully
ripe, or only leavesp While we might have
to acknowledge defeat in the past there was
opportunity given us for future victory, but it
was not to be by simply depending on New
Years day resolutions. Habit was hard foe
to overcome and nothing seemed more natural
than TO attempt to leave off evil habits on the
last day OF December and start out on New
Years's day with a clean new life, as though
the clocks striking midnigh, of the old year
tolled the knell of wicked past and heralded
n bright future. II this was the extent of good
resolutions, without looking to higher power
and deeper aim, it would bring but an igno-
minious defeat. Christ is our only refuge and
strength. To overcome old habits it is not
sufficient to abandon them, but adopting some
definite plan make your life one of activity,
Idle men tempt the devil to tempt them.
Make your life one OF strict sobriety. Nothing
is as sad as the sight of a drunken young man,
and yet the ranks are always full. Cut away
from old and evil associations. Make your
new life life of trust in God.
