MICHIGAN LETTER.
THE BAPTIST CONGRESS.

III
Detroit has recently been the scene of
many conventions and religious assem-
blies Among the significant ones has
been the Baptist Congress. At this were
gathered many notable men from differ
emit parts of the country. Probably as
marked character as any was President
Harper, of Chicago University, though
close beside him came President An
drews, of Brown University. AS welcome
as any in the city was Prof. G. r. Hen
derson, D. D., now Of Chicago University,
but formerly pastor of the leading Bap
fist Society of this city, in whose church
the Congress held its sessions. Advan
tage was taken of the presence of these
famed men to have notable social
event in the form of a reception. 1t was
given in honor of President Harper.
Pastors and members from nearly all Of
the leading churches were invited In
stead of music and song from noted and
disinterested artists hired for the occa
sion, or pressed in from some of the
church choirs, as is the usual course. as
if people must always be entertained, or
as if an enjoyable convention must be
adjourned to show courtesy to artists
that the conversers do not care to hear;
instead of any of this. the company
was given the delightful pleasure of
hearing few remarks from the promin'
ent guests in response to certain senti
ments. They responded as to "toasts'
only that the eating came when the toasts
had been given. The noticeable feature
of this whole gathering was the broad
ness of the thought uttered by the lead
ing men. One courageously affirmed
that the Baptist church must follow
truth and fact even if they lead away
from the traditions of the church. An
other said that knowledge of Gods pur-
poses is continually increasing. tits not
God having revealed himself but God
still revealing himself TO the souls Of
men. This Congress is free platform
where any man can say what he pleases.
His utterances do not involve the demon
ination. Yet while man may speak as
freely as he will he may as freely be con
tradicted Immediately on the floor by
any one who differs from him and involve
himself in difficulties dire. Thus it is
that all are very careful in their utter
ances. Such congresses as this are much
needed here, for Detroit is extremely
evangelical and utterances by these men
will do more to modify and break down
prejudices than anything said or done
blythe avowed liberal preachers and
churches
ANOTHER DETROIT CONGRESS.
Another Congress Of value to this city
is to hold the week from November % to
December 3. This is meeting of prac-
teal workers. There are to be lectures
and addresses from such we'll known
persons as Rev. Geo. ID. Heron. d. d.
of Iowa; Prof. Bemis. of Chicago. DIR.
Chas A. Dickinson, of Berkeley Temple,
Boston. DIR. j L. Scudder. of Jersey City,
Miss Jane Addams of Hull House Set
tlemeni. and otbtrs equally prominent.
Thus We are having feast of good things
and thong the shirt is ALWAYS willing

ILLINOIS. - Avon - TIE Union
Thanksgiving Service is an established
custom at Avon, each church taking
charge in it's turn. This year it fell to
the Universalists. The four other
churches in the village are the Baptist,
Catholic, Congregational. and M. b.
The pastors of the last three took part
in the service, as did also retired Dun
kard minister. The Baptists have no
pastor at present. The sermon was
preached by the Universalist pastor, and
the music was conducted by Union
choir. The service was held in the opera
house. A collection was taken for the
poor, and given to the Dorcas Society
for distribution.
In the evening the Y. P. G. U. gave a
dime social at tie home of Miss Ethel
Tompkins. A dainty lunch was served,
and unique and interesting program
was rendered. There was large attend
ance. notwithstanding the extremely
bad weather.
New Salem. - The Ordination of
Martha D. Jones was held in our church
at this place Tuesday evening. Novem-
Der q, the pastor cond ucting the ser
vice.
Rev. Margaret Titus delivered the Ord
ination sermon. Her text was from
Titus i. 9, and she gave an excellent dis
course on the duties of the Christian
minister-the message that is given to
the minister and how the minister shall
faithfully give that message to the peo-
pie.
Rev. G. A. G. Garst then offered the
prayer Of Ordination and presented the
Script,- with fitting charge to the
= date and in the name of the State
Convention extended the right hand of
fellowship. This part of the service
was made very impressive.
There were present besides the pastor
and the two ministers of our faith two
visiting ministers, Mrs. Olive Green OF
the Unitarian church and Prof. Mather,
of the Pittsfeld High School, an ordain-
ed minister of the Congregational church
who was former instructor of Martha
d. Jones in Stockton Academy, Kansas.
The church was crowded and the peo-
pie showed much interest in b tn sermon
and service. Mrs. Jones preached We'd
nesday night and assisted in the Thanks
giving service Thursday.
