Rev. Ralph E. Conner of Auburn
spoke on the subject "A Whole Sonled
Irniversalist." the purpose of which was
to define Universalsm. He repeated
the accepted definitions of Universal
ism, but said that these only partly de-
fine the faith.
"He. is not a Universalst who is out
wardly in the flesh, but he is a Univcr-
salist who is inwardly in the spirit.
The faith of the Universalist is summed
up in two great words, and the first of
these words is love. Are not all prov
licences special providences? God is
love and God is universal love also.
universal love, then. And the sec
ond word is victory. AS Emerson says.
THE dice of the Almighty are always
loaded God is love and God Is bound
to be victorious at last. All the expert
ences of life come from the great heart
OF God.
"These. then, are the two ingredients
of our faith. What ought it to accom-
plish in the lives Of its followers? The
genuine Lpiyersalist is cheerful. he is
an optimist. l am a Universalist not
because / am an 'anti-hellite' but be-
cause 1 am a religious optimist.
"And then 1 think the whole souled
UniyerSalist ought to be helpful.
TT goes without question that a
whole Universalist Christian is
a moral man.
"And man 1 say in conclusion that
the whole-souled Universalist supports
the church. For every organism must
have an organization. Religion must be
embodied in the church. If this country
is going TO be kept it is to be kept by
the people who keep the Sabbath day.

Afternoon Session.

1.-THE Positive Message of Life was
the subject of an eloquent sermon by
Rev. Eleanor B. Forbes of Gray. The
Speaker spoke of the voices of doubt
which are heard everywhere. and told
a story Illustrating the point.
What are these voices? They are
the. inherited, Unborn voices of the Dark
Ages. Never was there a greater Op-
portlInity than today to speak the Cos
pei of good tidings. The Kingdom of
heaven is at hand The great need Of
TIE world today is this positive mes
sage of life, of hope, of faith. Our
elder Brother we must follow. He spoke
as one having authority.
strange to say the positive message
of life is often spoken by the humblest
child as well as the greatest man.
What IS the message? Jesus said !
and my father are one. Abide in me.
Not from without but from within is
the source of blessing. Seek the king
dom of God and all things shall be
added This abiding presence will
take away the reStleSsneSs of the
world, and will give to the troubled
soul, peace.
Speak unto the weak ones the WORD
of living truth; speak unto the discour-
aged one. The Bible rings true with
its promises of life and love. We need
to make this message our own, to
vitaliZc it and give it to the world
The speaker drew the lessons from
the establishment of the home for the
feebl" minded at New Gloucester.
| Twenty three hundred children in the
state Of Maine whose existence shows
some broken law. 1t lies within the
reach of every one of us To hasten the
kingdom Of Righteousness and peace
By speaking the positive message of
life But this message must not only
be spoken in words, it must be spoken
in work. Human energy must be ma
terializcd in some service. Let this
positive message then be spoken by the
state, by the school and the church. AS
the Holy Spirit breathcs its breath in
to our very being, it will he the mes
sage which the world needs today, the
great message Of peace and love. God
is love-

"Our Duty to Japan" was the sub
ject of Rev. Carl F. Henry of Bangor.
The speaker said that he did not come
to justify foreign missions. Christ
said: "Go ye into all the world The
man or woman who lacks the mission

We as Universalists should be the
last people in all the world to be moved

to lay down his gun on Sunday"
The speaker said that many of the
stateman who are now guiding the
destinies of Japan. We're students ,of
the missionaries. Dr. HepbiEn was tlle
pioneer tof the occidsntalizing Of Jdp-
anese learning. DR. Willis by refusing
to minister to the wounded in the great
Japenese rebellion. unless he could
treat the wounded of both sides, Gre
ated new ethics for Japan. The Uni
versalist General Convention. in the
opinion of the speaker, was wise in
centralizing it's missionary effort on
Japan.
THE work which is begun, which has
created a new Japan, is not yet fin
ished. There is more to be done. In
many respects Japan is still a heather
nation
The speaker presented a plan for the

MOTHER DIES AS
BABES BAPTIZED
Mrs. 0lejniczak, Victim of Gasoline
Explosion, Passes Away-Caesarian
Operation Saves Infants Life.

Mother love triumphed over death
for a brief moment when Mrs Kate
Olejniczak watched with eager eyes
while her newborn babe was being
baptized with the full rites OF the
church and then sank back on her pill
lows with a deep sigh that ended In
death.
Mrs. Olojniczak was terribly burn
ed when the gasoline stove in her
home no. 61S Farnsworth-st., explod.
ed while she was preparing supper.
Monday night Nelghbors attempted to
save her, when they wrapped an Oil
cloth about her body, which was a pill
lar OF fame as she raced wildly
through the house. But In the hos
pital, 1t was soon learned that their
efforts had been in vain. Mrs. Olejnic-
Yak, who was expecting a visit from
the stork, was told that she could not
live. She took the announcement
calmly as 10 herself. but she begged
that another little life might be spar
ed. After a consultation, the physi-
clans decided to resort TO a Caesar
can operation.
The operation was wonderfully sue
cessful and Mrs, OlejnicZak lived to
see the baptism, which was perform
ed at her death bed. Coroner Bennett
