THE SIN OF OMISSION.
1t isn't the thing you do, dear,

II isn't h thing you do, dear,
It's the thing you leave undone
Which gives you a bit of hearoache
At the setting OF the sun
The tender word forgotten,
The letter You did not write,
The flower you might have sent, dear,
Are your haunting ghosts to night.
The stone you might have lifted
Out of the brothers way,
The bit of hearthstone counsel
You we're hurried too much TO say.
The loving touch Of tho hand, dear.
The gentle and winsome tone
That y0r had no time nor thought for,
With troubles enough of your own.
These little acts of kindness,
So easily out OF mind,
These chances to be angels
Which even mUrtafs find
They come in night and silence
Each child reproachfrl wrath,
When hope is faint and tagging,
And a blight has dropped OF faith.
For life is oil too short, dear,
And sorrow is all too great,
To suffer our slow compassion
That tarries until too late.
And it's not the thing you do, dear,
It's the thing you leave undone,
Which gives you the bitter heartache
At the setting Of the sun-

just at this season sof the year large
number of our smaller congregations in
the country, where services are suspended
during the winter months, are making
preparations for resumption of public
worship. To these, and other of our
smaller congregations holding monthly
or semi services, we recommend
as a good book for the song service of
worship and the regular services of the
sanctuary, Conference Chorsls."
This little book contains GA pages and
is bound in strong MANILA covers. The
first strain of each tune is given. 1t con-
tains 100 hymns, and may be used indie
pendently of the larger work, christian
Chorals," of which it is companion. 1t
is an admirable collection Of hymns for
public worship, and is furnished at q
very low price to secure wide circula-
ton. Price IL cents single copy; SIPS
per dozen; SO per hundred.
A new edition of this little book has
recently been published by the Publish
ing House and the Western Branch can
supply orders to any extent. IT is just
exactly the book required for occasional
services, and is published at SO low q
price that our congregations can use the
same without any very large outlay. Let
our friends order it and equip their con-
gregstions for worship and song the
coming season.

SOUTH CAROLINA.-New Church at
Chapman's.-Rev d. B. Clayton writes
to the Herald: "The brethren at Chap
mans, in Edgefeld county, 8. O., have
done nobly in the erection7of church
house. They have just completed one,
30x50, ceiled throughout in workman
like manner. It has nice pulpit and
very nice seats. This is the point at
which the writer delivered eight sermons
year ago, the last week in January, the
first preaching that had been done there
in about thirty years, and wound up
with the organization of church with
nineteen members. 1t now has more than
thirty members, and good prospect fol
several more in the near future. They
are keeping up good Sundsy-school
and our young brother, Thomas Chap
man, member of that church, discourseE
to them frequently"

Z. Parish and Church Distinction in o
ganization.
s. Societies of Christian Endeavor, their
Organization and Work.
The first topic was assigned to Rev.
James Shrigley, of Philadelphia, his
torian of Pennsylvania Universslist Con-
vention, and the others are to be assigned
at an early day.
Saturday, August IL, was fixed as the
time for opening the "grove meetings" OF
1888. Devotional exercises to be held
daily, and to close with Sunday, August
26. This is week longer than last year.
To the inquiry as to whether days
should be set apart for excursions on the
bay, Rev. G.. W. Barnes, of Cedar Greek,
N. j., replied that if excursions were held
every weekday, the number in attend
ance at the religious meetings next Au-
gust would be SO large that excursionists
would not be missed.
A plan of the property now for sale
adjoining that of the Potter Memorial
church was presented, showing the adapt
ability of the property to the purposes of
the Association. Rev. G. W. Barnes said
that the open pavilion or tabernacle
shown on the plan was not needed at
present, the church and the grove afford
ing ample accommodations for worship
ers. Capt. d. s. Williams, also of Cedar
Greek, N. j., indicated how more direct
communication between the church and
the N. J. @. R. r. could be secured.
Capt. John Holmes, of Waretown, N.
j., thought more ready communication
with the bay would be enjoyed by visitors.
On motion that the plan be modified
in accordance with the suggestions made
which was so ordered.
A form OF Act of Incorporation for the
Association, under the laws Of New Jer-
sey, was submitted by the chair. 1t de-
fines the objects of the Association to be,
" To provide and maintain for the men,
bers and friends of the Universalist
church proper, convenient and desira-
BILE grove meeting ground and Christian
resort near the seaside in Ocean county,
N. j. The Act was recommended for
adoption at the next meeting of the As
sociation, and also the amendments to
the constitution and bylaws made nee
essary by the charter. Adjourned.

society was organized at the same time,
for work in connection with the parish.
They have been faithful and industrious.
Week before last they held fair and fes-
tival, and the receipts were $40, which

gan, United Brethren preacher, held q
discussion in vining, according ito pre-
vious arrangement, beginning on May

two hours were given to the speeches.
The question discussed was the follow
ing: 'Do the Holy Scriptures Teach the
Ultimate Holiness and Happiness Of all
Mankind" The house was we'll filled
each night and good order prevailed dur
ing the whole time. 1t was observed,
however. that the stsnch advocates OF
endless punishment were not 80 plentiful
during the last week of the discussion as
the first. A correspondent writes us that
"Br. Woodrow's arguments were forcible,
clear, logical and eloquent, andshe pre-
sented the Gospel as the bread of life,
comforting all that mourn, and as the
glad tidings and great JOY to all people"
Our correspondent adds: "We are we'll
pleased with the discussion, as there will
probably be more than dozen accessions
in the near future to our parish in VIM
ing"

TEXAS.

Mrs. NJ @. Billings, of our Texas mis-
sion, is about starting North to spend
several months, for the interests OF our
cause in that State. She will visit the
prominent Universalist parishes East and
West, hoping to obtain aid for the cree.
ton OF two church buildings-one at
Hico and one at Meridian-where the two
missionaries, Br. and Sister Billings, alter
nately labor. The friends there are poor,
but have donated building sites and
pledged mean for erecting these churches
before Christmas, provided some help can
be obtained.
Mrs. Billings writes -" We are tired
OF trying to make progress here in Hico
and Meridian without suitable place OF
worship. No one uninterested in our
at present-unpopula doctrine, will
attend our religious meetings, unless
held in more comfortable places than the
district schoolhouses efford. Formerly
this was the custom for all denominations,
but now, with three churches here and
the same number at Meridian, we must
also have our own edifce in order to keep
up interest in our services.
cat Meridian our friends have q bell,
an organ and fair Sunday school library,
but no place for them. IL our churches
North will help us to the sum of $4,000, with
what we raise, we will have two neat little
churches, which we propose to deed, one to
the Woman's Centenary Association, and
one to our General Convention, to be kept
for the Universalist denomination in
Texas.
ut does seem that this sum might be
raised among all our churches, East and
West! 1t would be but little for each to
contribute. 1 feel that 1 don't want to
die ID. V. until at least one church ded-
icated to our loving All Father, points its
spire heavenwsrd here in Texas. One
church in all this land, as a monument
which the venerable missionary and
his wife may leave of the work they have
tried to do for our beautiful faith in
Texas!
"Mr. Billings intends to be at the Gen
erRl Convention with good report of our
State Fund, which has just been start
ed. We are anticipating happy reunion
with friends at that time. But imam pro.
poses and God disposes." We await His
will in this, as we'll as in other plans for
the future days"

Now that DIR. Rexford has pitched bis
tent several hundred miles toward the
rising sun, our people here are casting
their eyes about trying to discern the
man with proper proportions for chief
tainship over a people who require brains
and heart, and who, in this emergency,
would be well pleased if their leader
had also the organizing genius. Some
are led to believe that the pslmy days of
this society are gone. We know some
thing OF the character of the people who
make it, and our belief is, that brighter
days are yet in store for it. Very much,
of course, depends on the man who shall
be chosen to lead, but if he be possessed
of ability and conservation he will surely
find large and steadfast following. DIR.
