ILLINOIS. = Joliet. = Our Sunday
school held it's annual Christmas festival
on Christmas eve. There were two
trees loaded with presents. Santa Claus
had charge Of the trees while his anna
BILE spouse presided over clothes line
on which long row of stockings filled
with sweets we're hung. The young peo-
ple responded with music, song, and
recitations.

of 125 and is prosperous under the lead
ership of Superintendent DIR. Minnie X.

mas gifts of purse of money and other
valuable articles. There seems to be
perceptible growth in the society, and
awakened activity that promises some
thing for the future for our cause aban-
doned as dead. The visit of Miss Wy
coff would have been fine success for
us if she could have remained as long as
she had engaged with US. She left US
on Sunday afternoon and on that even
ing the church was crowded to hear her
sing. She possesses fine vocal talent.
Then we sustained another disappoint-
ment on the following Monday night,
when a good audience gathered to hear
DR.. Garfield who was prevented from
being with us by the sudden death OF
Bro. Swan. There is a growing desire
on the part of our people even OF other
denominations to hear DR.. Garfield, and
we hope to make another date with him
in the near future.

THE IDEAL RECORD BOOK.

The New Year is now beginning. Are
you ready for it in your Sunday
school? Are you prepared to keep
correct record of your school? The
Ideal Sunday School Secretary's Report
book will help you more than you ever
imagine. Hear what Methodist who
has seen it says: "Our minister and our
Secretary both compliment Mr.. Grier
very highly on getting up such COM
plete book for Sunday school work. They
both say it is the most complete thing
they have ever seen and wish him great
success in disposing of lots of them.
They will speak of it and recommend if
wherever they can. They had Just
bought book for this purpose only two
weeks before, They have abandoned
that and commenced with this book last
Sunday morning.

our own religious platform. yet we are
ever ready to recognize the Christian
zeal and devotion of other sects, and CO.
operate with them whenever such
course promises mutual satisfact on and
the elevation Of your common humanity.
If my brother of a different church
invites me to preach for him, my sense
of civility prompts me to accept the in
vitation. nor can needlessly antagonize
his religious sentiments. My distinc-
tive faith, may for the time, be held in
allegiance to that charity which "think-
eth no evil"
1t is worthy of note that those in other
communions than our own, who are
most willing to extend to us the right
hand of Christian fellowship. are the
recognized leaders in their respective
communions in efforts to evangelize and
bless mankind. They are the devout,
benevolent spirits who are looking for
some redeeming traits in human char
acter, and for higher and holier bond
of Christian union on earth. Their
faith looks beyond the limit of their
creed and rests in that infinite and eter-
nal love which enfolds all human souls.
But there is yet need Of doctrinal
preaching in our ministry. In every
community there are inquiring mines
touching the faith we profess. Some of
those discarded the dogma of endless
punishment, but they do not yet see
what ehall be the outcome of this NOR
tai life. From the slumbering dead no
voice has spoken any word of satisfac-
ton to them. The graves Of loved ones
are silent, and the stars that nightly
watch over them shed no light upon
their final destiny. To these we may
we'll hasten with the message of risen
Saviour, and the Fathers purpose to
save through him, in life of sinless
beauty, the world of mankind.

WORK IN IOWA.
(Letter from Mr.. L. M. Haaoes.)

(Letter from Mr.. L. M. Haaoes)
About a year ago / communicated
through The UNIvERsALIsT my intention
to take up the work Of an Evangelist in
Western Iowa. desired to call upon
isolated Universalist families wherever
they could be found, hold preaching SER
vice in the neighborhood, and SO help to
awaken greater and more general in
terest in the work of our church. Dur
ing residence of many years in that
part of Iowa l had made the acquaint-
ance of several such families. / also
proposed to visit and preach in several
towns, where in years gone by, we had
sustained stated preaching.
My efforts in this field of labor though
not as successful as | anticipated, have
not been void of interest. or barren of
good fruit. The depressed financial
condition of the country generally, only
too we'll known. has materially lessened
the results of labor in this direction as
we'll as in many others; and yet the field
is inviting and not without promise of
reward.
At Adair and Fontanelle, where l
have preached, much interest has been
manifest in the meetings. At the former
occupied the pulpit of the M. E.
church at the Sunday morning service.
At Fontanelle, preached in the Congre-
gational church on another Sunday
morning, at the usual hour of service.
In both instances, the pastors were re,
speciiyely present taking part in the
services. These incidents are mentioned
as evidences of the more liberal and
growing Christian sentiment of today.
They signify recognition of the right
full claim OF our denomination as evan
gelical, believing the genuine doctrines
of the Scriptures" The interchange
Of such eivilities may be regarded as
showing that we do not desire to be seen

one hour. The discourse was we'll packed
with valuable and instructive thoughts,
and we'll received by the hearers.
Rev. l. B. Grandy has infused new

mined to give another series, in answer
to the many inquiries from his interested
audiences, in part as follows: Jan. 10,

The Sunday school at Logansport
had superb entertainment Christmas
eve. They had regular snow house,
with brick chimney and fire place, a
fine Christmas tree we'll laden with
presents. At the proper time Santa
Claus came in midst the ringing of the
bells, when the bricks full of candies and
nuts were distributed, as we'll as the
presents from the tree. They have
money to meet all expenses and to spare.
1t was telling demonstration.
The minister and laity will please
bear in mind that the Convention re,
quests that every member of the Univer-

churches will forward their contributions
direct to the Secretary, who will receipt

MAOLBAN'S INTRODUCTION TO THE
GOSPEL OF JOHN.

The Congregationalist notices this
work as follows:
"Dr. MacLean goes carefully. yet with
out undue waste of words, over the life
of st. John, the object of the Gospel,
the evidences of it's authenticity and
similar matters. and furnishes an inter
linear literal translation with which the
Authorized Version is compared in par
allel columns. The book is eminen tly
scholarly. and contains large amount
of material, the Importance of which
Biblical scholars will appreciate. DIR.
Mac Lean has done good service in these
pages"

@. Fl. Shinn, General Missionary, writes
10 the Banner touching his ecent South
Dakota visit:
"E. |. Scott, eighty four years old, is
the Universalist patriarch of the Black
Hills. Did all Universalists stand for
their faith as this hero has, we would
have churches everywhere. He leaves
no stone unturned, furnishes literature
for all candid enough to read. corrects
all misrepresentation, and answers
every minister who dares assail his
faith. Had he the means, he would
build church. He will do all he can.
A church home, if for only few servi-
ces before he leaves this world, is the
greatest desire of his earnest soul. To
refuse in helping him, cannot. His call
became vision haunting me: Come
over and help u.s." And it was stronger
this time than before. Hence | have
answered the second time travelling al
most twelve hundred miles. And o |
am glad came! have held twelve SER

three to the church, christened three
children, completed the church organi-
cation and organized Y. P. G. u, in
two weeks and two days, the same in
Guiding all the work noted in other
places. Last week l preached eight
sermons in Sturgis and one at Fort
Meade. Many seekers came. Several
converts to the faith. Four persons
said, at close of last service yesterday, Il
will join next Time" The subject, What
will become of sinful people dying in
sin?" drew the largest number. 1t is
easy to tell why; there are SO many sor-
rowing hearts = everywhere and no
comfort in their creeds. Presbyterians
who refused the use of their church
this time, (they granted it before), came
and we're comforted. Said church is
closed, having no pastor; and inasmuch
as Universalists paid the first money
that went to furnish it and have con-
tinued paying ever since, Father Scott
applied for the church. but was refused.
