The Duty We Owe to the eAlmiehty-Sermon
by Rev. f. A. LIGHT
Rev. T. A. LIGHT, of the German Baptist
Church, addressed the Baptist congregations at
a union service held at the North Baptist Church.
His text was Psalms tx, Al:
1T is good thing to give thanks unto the Lord,
and to sing praises unto Thy name, o, Most High"
The subject deduced from the text is thank
fulness to God expressed in thanksgiving 1t is
a duty we owe to God, and it is privilege. He
requires of us gratitude. What we have re-
ceiyed is ours, and yet not to do with it what
our selfish hearts would have us to do but what
is pleasing to the Giver who is love and the all
merciful. We are to become benefactofs, and
in this respect, at least, like God. God has
comforted US, let us comfort others. He has
provided for our wants, let us, according to our
ability, provide for the less fortunate Gods
ministerng angels His blessings are not to en-
crust our hearts with icy selfshness and to close
our hearts as soon as they have been filled from
above, but to make us feel the keenly the
debt of love we owe to our less fortunate
fellow brother and TO make our hand open the
more readily in order to impart good things to
the needy. The grateful hearts languageis al
ways Lord, what wilt Thou have me to do
with these Thy giftsY In what use of them can
l most successfully honor Thee, help realize the
prayer of my Savior Thy kingdom come and
do my share in making this world better and
happierl' And as Christian citizens of this
greatly privileged land let us not forget to use
our great prerogatiyes conscientiously in abol
ishlng existing evils protecting free insti-
tutions-the glory OF our countrJ-against the
attacks of law-defying, Goddespising enemies of
them, doing all within our power personally
and through existing agencies, to make this

THE STATE NORMAL SCHOOL.
The Annual Statistics Reported BY the
Board of Trustees and the President.

The annual reports of the operations of the
State Normal School at Terre Haute have been
made to Governor Porter, and they show that,
while the institution has a very large enrolment
of pupils and the educational work has pros
pered satisfactorily, it is still greatly hampered
by want OF funds to properly carry out the work
which should be done. The report OF the trus
tees shows that the annual income for tuition
purposes is SO, 600, and that the monthly pay
roll of teachers amounts to 50, 600. The balance
on hand of the fund will be exhausted at the end
of the present month, and the apporuonment of
the school revenue will not take place until
January Asno appropriation for the main
tenance of the institution was made two years
ago, the most rigid economy has been practiced.
The receipts were increased by tax on the stu
dents amounting to 81, $40 in all and the Incl
dental fund was overdrawn to the extent of
81 $40 which the treasurer Mr. W. r. McKeen,
advanced out Of his own means, believing that
he would be reimbursed by the next Assembly.
The following appropriations are recommended
Additional tuition revenue, s., GOO; current ex
penses, $5,00O deficiency in incidental fund,
81 $40; library s., 900; apparatus. 81 900.
President George P Brown. in his report says
that the total enrolment for the year was l, 172

cent, Of the pupils are children of farmers, 10
Der cent of mechanics, per cent. of Drofes
