DR.. and Mrs. Pease, missionaries OF
the Congregational church to Micro.
nesis, were present yesterday at the
gospel meeting and told OF their work in
their far away field of labor.
For 10 years past they have labored
in the Gilbert, the Caroline and the
Marshall group OF islands. Only once
during that period have they visited
this country, but now they propose re.
naming for some time in order to attend
to the education OF their children. Mrs.
Pease spoke OF the difficulties attend
ing the mission work. In making
the trip from Honolulu to Micre-
nesia 120 days were consumed.
Then the difficulties attending the ac-
uuirement OF the native language had to

the first workers in 1852, and of the
various means employed for their i'm
provement. Now training schools have
been established, and many of the ma.
tives are assisting in the teaching of the
natives in the various island groups.
The children of the Congregational
church own and sustain vessel called
the Morning Star, which once each
year makes trip TO America ior pro-
visions, mail. books, ETC., and the re-
mninder of the time is employed in car
rying workers from one island to the
other. 1.-The arrival Of this vessel once

sis the red letter day of the year." Only

Pease closed her Interesting address by
singing in the native language q para
phrase of "The Lord is Ny Sheperd,"

Special attention is being directed at
the East Los Angeles Baptist church to
the musical part of the services. Yes.
terday Mrs. Nellie Morfoot led the
choir and Mrs. Hitchcock presided at
the organ. The Storey boys, violinists.

Rev. George E. Dye delivered prac-
tical discourse from the text: The Son
of Man came to seek and to save that
which WAS lost.
1t Was an earnest plea for home work.
All sorts OF men and women get lost,
said the preacher. They are lost by
self will. They DRIFT away. Christian
lands are full Of wrecks that have foated
out from churches and Sunday schools.
Heathen nations point to us today and
say, "Physician. heal thyself." All
sorts and conditions of men get lost.
They break away and follow the devices
of their own wicked hearts. 1t takes
very little stuff to make Q firet-class
sinner. but the devil always takes all
he can get. The slums are fed from
above. Nothing but good heart in the
life of man will keep the bad out. We
must find the lost and take them to
Christ. Do not haggle over difficulties,
but GEEK the lost till you find them.

gregation attended the First Baptist

1.-The first question that might be
asked" said Mr.. Duncan, sis, what is
jealousy? 1t is not envy. Joseph was
envied by his brethren; Saul envied
David; there is nothing meaner than
envy nor is jealousy self mutation nor
covetousness. Jealousy is deep anxs
isty about our moral possessions. We
cannot be jealous of material things.
No ono who is without love can be jsal
ous. True love came out of the bosom
OF God and has been loaned to US in
this unfriendly world. When the OBJ
ject OF our love ia about to be alienated
from us, or We think 1t is. jealousy is
aroused. God loves ue anG consequently
he is jealous God.
That holy relation, marriage, must be
respected and its vows sscredly OBJ
served. else jealousy is aroused, and woe
to the house wherein it comes nnheeded.
So in our relations with God. We must
keep our vows to Him, else His jealousy
is aroused. There 10 a social relation
that people occupy who have assumed
marital obligations; they may still. to q
proper extent, mingle in society. And
30 with Christians; they are expected,
to a certain extent, to mingle with sim
nsrs, but must never forget their own
vows.
