tain happy church homes. The impor
lance OF physical health and careful
economy of time was also emphasized.
Wednesday forenoon Rev. Sophie
Glib read a paper upon the value Of
Liberalism to Liberals" She said: Lib
eralism is not looseness Of thought, nor
any system Of theology, nor was it
nothingism, but the attitude of friendly
consideration of differing views, which
not being done often caused liberals to
be most illiberal. We should be careful
to pluck the beam from our own eyes
and ready to recognize and accept truth
when taught by Protestant or Catholic
as we'll as by ourselves.
An animated discussion followed in
which the above views we're upheld and
it was claimed that Universalism was
an ideal liberalism because it held
fast to that which it regarded as proven.
but was ready to accept new light from
any source and to patiently consider and
compare differing faiths.
The afternoons and evenings we're
given to song and preaching services
and were we'll attended by attentive
hearers. Rev. Mr.. Reyes led the singing.
DR.. Crum preached careful and
scholarly sermon Monday evening. Rev.
j. L. Everton, of Usage. gave a rousing
sermon Tuesday evening. and Wednes-
day evening Rev. Sophie Glib gave
delightful and helpful discourse.
Thursday and Friday evenings Evan
gelist Reyes preached on the subjects,
Human Destiny" and 1.-THE Philosophy
of Salvation"
In them he concisely and clearly
taught the comforting, inspiring and
practical views of this life. and the life
to come as held by Universalists, giving
also the Scriptural basis upon which
such views rest. Rev. III. L. Gillespie
will continue regular services at Cedar
Falls.

IOWA MINISTERIAL CONFERENCE

CEDAR FALLS, April SO.
Rev. III. L. Gillespie has been having
regular mission services here for some
time past and arranged for the confer.
ence. The people were hopeless as to
any good being derived of nature max.
ing permanent life probable. but were
glad to give entertainment and hear the
glad tidings again.
Those present were: DIR. Crum, Web.
ster City; Rev. j. L. Everton. Usage;
Rev. Sophie Glib. Boone; Rev. j. M.
Getchell, Waterloo; Evangelist Reyes,
Mt. Pleasant; Rev. HI. L. Gillespie. Man.
chester. Letters were received from
others regretting their inability to par
ticipate.
The forenoons were devoted to the
business and professional interests of
the Universalist ministry, arranging pas
torates. outlining missionary and evan.
gelical work for the next quarter and
mutual criticism and instruction in pro-
fessional work under the direction of DIR.
Crum. Here it was emphasized that the
power of the ministry rests in personal
and rigid honesty and loyalty to the re-
ligion of Jesus, quite as much as in tai
emit and brilliancy. which often deceive
and mislead. Ministers are strongly
tempted to justify the means by the end,
but the end is finally disorder and dis
appointment to the church. Ministers of
truth could afford to trust in the God OF
truth ard press on hopefully, cheerfully
and uprightly as becomes follower of
Christ. There is no place whore such a
course could fail to establish and main.

Cool, frosty weather, with further ex-
cess of rainfall, has characterized the
past week over the principal agricul-
tural districts with the exception of the
Pacific coast. In the winter wheat belt
especially the season of spring growth is
late in opening, and while temperatures
have been mild enough to cause fields to
green up, cool nights and cloudy days,
with excessive rainfall, have checked
plant development.
For three weeks there has been no
positive change in the winter wheat sit
uation, and the better feeling which was
apparent among growers ten days ago is
again giving way to depression. The
outlook for winter wheat. as pointed out
in this column month ago, is distinctly
bad, and the better returns from some
districts are fully offset by more unfav-
orable reports from others. The only
State in which positive claim of better
ment over the situation as first reported
is justified is Ohio, and even there the
improvement is more nominal than real.
The mere fact that the season is proving
late is not in itself important SO far as
wheat is concerned, but it brings ten
dency toward encouragement which is
likely to color the views Of local observ-
ers and may easily lead to more pessi-
mistic reports.

the assessment was rendered void by II e

(Stats. 1895, .. 39) it is declared that
where the defense is based upon the
