Reyes continued the preaching. singing
and answering OF questions, closing the
work on Monday evening. Monday
evening was a remarkable service. Mr..
Reyes sang solos in connection with the
opening song service, read and COM
mented on the Scripture lesson "Fhe
Ten Virgins" then varied the plan by in
viting questions before preaching. The
gu estio became so numerous and
spirited and Mr.. Reyes explained the
passages so thoroughly and satisfactor-
lily that the time for preaching the reg
ular sermon had long gone by. The
service was concluded by receiving mem
bers into the church. 1t was apleasure
in many hearts to see six adults, repre-
sentating four of the best families in
the community prove themselves loyal
to their faith by uniting with the church
of their choice. The society desiring to
use to the best advantage the musical
talent of Mr.. Reyes placed fine piano
in Universalist Hall and secured the
services of Miss Minnie Corelli Brown
of Clarinda. Iowa, as accompanied.

by Grand Musicale" on Tuesday
evening Nov. "a. under the direction of
Mr.. Reyes, assisted by Miss Brown and
Miss Mary Rutan, an accomplished
pianist of Wichita. Local talent was
also used. The hall was well filled if it
did rain continuously during the after
noon and evening. This is the third time
Miss Brown has come to this part of the
State and presided at the piano for mee'-
ings conducted by Mr.. Reyes.
This place has no regular pastor. Rev.
Frances E. Brant has resigned for the
purpose of entering LON bard University
later. Let us all hope that the little
circle of churches situated along the
Arkansas River may prosper and multi
ply, always cherishing that broader faith
that the same good spirit that watches
over our stronger churches in the dis
tant States is with our efforts too. All
praise to Revs. j. Davis. Woodrow, Rog-
ers and Miss Brant for pioneer work, and
to Rev. Mr.. Falconer for his holding and
cementing after work, and to our Mr..
Reyes for his untiring work. Miss
Brown also deserves special commenda-
ton for services rendered these
churches. We mean to live and grow
and you may expect to hear from us
again for we shall report progress from
time to time. j. w. Hutton.

those who hang their faith in Christian
ity upon the doom OF endless suffering
to have Hall to lean upon. How appro-
pirate it is for them to have such false
text book as Halls to support and prove
such false doctrine! Truly. "Like will
seek its like" Why not? 1t is natural.
The preachers of eternal hell torments
down here in Texas would be leading
forlorn hope in their churches, if it
were not for Halls book. 1t is their
sheet anchor Of trust! 1t helps to hold
their people in sectarian bondage. and
from accepting the dangerous heresy of
the universal Fatherhood of God. and
the universal brotherhood of humanity
We of this precious faith (which they
call heresy." are we'll pleased with the
triumphant victories that our brother
has achieved in these controversies
which he has held.
The first day of December Bro. Rogers
is to have another discussion with an
old veteran of the Campbellite Christian
Church. This man is of the anti-organ
wing of that church. This is to take
place at Comanche. 1t is to continue
ten nights, two hours each night, one
hour speeches.
We have 80 much confidence in the
truth of our faith and in the ability Of
our David's sling, that we have no fears
of the result. The remarkable calmness
with which our brother meets all the
base misrepresentation is a marvel to
the people. The secret of the mystery
of this is in having the truth.

MINISTERIAL CONFERENCE.


At the last conference of the Iowa
Ministers it was decided to hold the next
meeting in Boone sometime in Decem-
Der. The pastor, Mrs. Sophie Glib,
would prefer to not have the Conference
until after the holidays. The Secretary
wishes to notify the ministers through
this column that the meeting will he
postponed until sometime toward the
latter part Of January.
1t may not be amiss to say word
further in this connection. The Minis
terial Conference cannot be of benefit to
those who fail to attend its sessions. It's
value is largely social. Ministers be-
come lonesome and often discouraged.
isolated as they are from their brethren.
They need the renewing influence of
contact with others. Numbers is essen
tial to the best results of these meetinge.
Those who stay away therefore are not
only depriving themselves of the benefit
they might gain. but by their absence
they also rob those who do attend of the
greater good which would be derived
from the enthusiasm OF numbers.
The local society where the meetings
are held. especially the inquiring out
siders. base their estimate of the
strength and influence of the church at
large on its showing at the Conference
Their allegiance and faithfulness to the
home church will be determined largely
by this estimate. So it would seem we
should have full attendance at Boone
next January, both for the good 9th
pastors of the State and for the Boone
church.

Rev. L. Fidelia w. Gillette has been
supplying this parish for four weeks past
while on visit among old friends. Over
twenty years ago Mrs. Gillette came to
this place as State Missionary OF the
Universalist Convention. Asa result of
her labors the society was organized.
During her present visit she had helped
the Ladies' Aid Society to reorganize
and is at work now with the Sunday
school. Last Sunday she exchanged
with Rev. E. G. Andrusof Tecumseh. The
people of Hillsdale are greatly cheered
by the visit and sermons of Mrs. Gillette.

ORAL DISCUSSIONS IN THE STATE.

ORAL DISCUSSIONS IN THE STATE
Within the last year have listened to
three oral discussions on the final des-
tiny of humanity. Our brother Rev. G.
FL. Rogers has been kept busy since he
migrated to the Lone Star State"
He has had no time to rust out. His
first encounter was with a Baptist in
Hico, man that they claim is the best
defender of the dogma of endless pun
ishment in the 30 called orthodox ranks.
were very jubilant. They were ready to
advise us to disband our little Hico
flock, and be baptized into their close
communion circle. ITO sell our church;
for it would be useless property after
the diecussion!" The contest lasted ten
nights, two hours each session. During
the whole time their man struggled
hard to read into every text of the
Bible the doctrine of endless punish
ment. To do this he drew largely upon
Wilfred Hall. That book was the theo-
logical text book and digest of this
champion of the Baptist church. We
were surprised to learn this fact. But
the result of this battle silenced the
boasting of the Baptist brethren about
selling our church, or our being baptized
into their narrow enclosure.
The next discussion was at Bowie,
Texas, with a prominent Methodist, a
man who agreed to meet Bro. d. B.
Clayton, and who then backed down
and out. He had done the most ridicu-
lous Boosting previously of what he was
going to do. So much so that his
Boosting became disgusting to the people
at large, and to many of his own "pecu-
liar people"
He too used Halls" digest of false
hoods and proved himself to be an ex-
pert in low slang and abuse of the char
acter of the Universalist faith. Since
the discussion he has drawn in his head
out of sight. His former friends are as
named of his conduct in that debate.
We all pity the poor deluded man for
his folly.
The third contest was with man who
belongs to the Firm Foundation" wing
OF the self-constituted Christian church.
This wing of that peculiar people rejects
all instrumental music. Those who are
fond of the organ are known as the. Pro-
gressive wing of that church. They are
progressive in some of their ideas of hu-
manity. They are sick of the song of
praise, as Will Carleton describes it; one
singer with three notes too fast, another
with three too slow and the "old d sacon
using his rel bandana, in wiping his
weeping eyes," They are convinced that
an organ with skillful fingers to touch
the keys would lift the people in spirit
nearer to God.
The man who met Bro. Rogers in this
third contest, relied more upon Halls
misrepresentation of Universalism to
prove his pet theory of endless torment
than he did upon the Bible or his own
brains. 1t is theological Bonanza" to
