EDITOR COLUMBIAN:
DEAR SIR;-Your correspondent from
Catawissa in the COLUMBIAN of the 23rd
inst. reports Prohibition meeting held in
the open streets of Catawissa on Saturday
the nth, Of Oct, and thinks shat "the
proper place for ministers is in the pulpit,
and not making political speeches." But
how about their work down in the ditch
where the drunkand lies stripped Of man.
hood and money, his character and home
destroyed by drink? Have ministers u
right to lift up the drunkard and restore to
him his character and home, and no right
to tell the people how nor where that
drunkard was manufactured, or suggest
the method by which that factory shall be
closed? If not-Uhy not' A clergyman is
citizen as well as a minister, and has u
legitimate right to speak his mind on any
question that affects the morals, the intcll-
gence and happiness of the people, wheth-
er he be in the pulpit or out of it. If min
listers have no right to discuss the science
of government (Polllics) as well as lawyers
and judges, and other good citizens, they
have no right to 60 to the polls and vote,
because "their place is in the pulpit" and
OF course TO be seen at an election is highly
disreputable to ministers, hence they have
no right to express their opinions as citi-
zens in support of free thought, free speech
and II free ballot. Your correspondent had
probably better write work on advice
to Minister'S" but by all means let the price
be as low as the advice is thin.

YRAR.

The week commencing Sunday, Novem-
Der 8, will he observed throughout the civ.
ilized world as "a season of prayer for
young men and Young Mems Christian AS
sociations
This season had its origin in resolution
adopted by the International Convention
OF the American associations held in Alba
ny, N. Y, in 1866, and has been observed
every year since at .he recommc ndation of
the subsequent conventions
There are now 1900 of these associations
in the world, distributed as follows: North
America, 934; Great Britain, $685. France,
72; Germany, $40; Holland, 1906; Switzer-
land, 269; Denmark, 43; Belgium, "a, and
dozen, more or less, in each of the fol-
lowing countries: Spain, Italy, Turkey,
Russia, Austria, Japan, Syria, South Afri-
ca, Australia, New Zealand Madagascar
and India. The American associations are
the strongest and best organized OF any.
They number 500 general associations, 1870
college, 90 railroad, "a colorcd and 12 Ger
man. The yearly current expenses of the
associations in America amount to $780,
900. They own eighty-two buildings, val
ued SO, ,532 900, and have total net prop
erty of "a 4,3530O0. Four hundred and ff-
teen men are devoting their whole time to
the work as secretaries, librarians ana
gymnasium instructors.
The expenses of the railroad ass ocia.
tions is $4,000 per year, two-thirds OF
which sum is contributed by the railroad
companies, who testify to the great benefi,
resulting to their employees through this

The Mittln Township Sunday School
Convention was held in the New School
Lutheran church, Mifflinvile, Columbia
county, Pa, Tuesday, October 81, 1886
Rev. liassinger was elected president;
W. T. S. Deavor, Secy and J. +. Brown,
treasurer. The superntenden,s OF the
township were appointed executive COM
mittee. This was the first Sunday school
convention held in this township.
A number of the most difficult questions
arising from Sunday school work were
ably discussed by the following ministers
and laymen: Rev. Galloway, of Berwick,
Rev. Ferguson and Dechant, of Catawissa,
Rev. Hassinger and Deavor, of Mifflnvillc,
Messrs. A W. Spear, of Lightstreet, Dea-
con Kirkendall, OF Nescopeck, and Burd
Clayburger, of Mifiiinville. All the Sun
day schools were represented but one.
The exercises of the day were very inter
esting and from the attendance and atten-
tion, we would judge that much good
was accomplished and would reasonably
expect great improvement in the Sunday
school work of the township. A collec-
tion, amounting to $404, was raised 10
defray incidental expenses
The evening session was most intere sting.
Two very important topics, namely, "How
Can Parents Best Aid the Sunday School p
and "The Sunday School us Means OF
Grace" were ably discussed. The former
by Rev. Ferguson, the latter in like
manner by Rev. Galloway. Some very
important questions from the query box
were answered by members of the con-
vention. Some closing remarks were made
by ministers and several laymen, after
which the convention adjourned "sine
die" w. Il. S, DRAvoR Sec'y.
