DISCUSSES TURNING
THE OTHER CHEEK
The Rev. w. T. S. Lumbar Says
Manifest Man That Ever
Lived, Christ, Did So.

Taking for his text, Turning the
Other Cheek the Rev. w. T. S. Lum-
bar, pastor of the Mt. Pleasant Baptist
Church, said in part;
THE text mas been the occasion of
much discussion, some contending it is
capable of a literal obedience, and
others that it is not. One thing is GER
natural disposition nor the measure of
grace received enables many to actually
follow its teaching. What has been
done can be DONE Jesus, our Saviour.
lived the text. He was imposed upon
and abused. Yes, and even suffered the
loss of life itself. You say a man with
red blood in his veins will not suffer
himself to be tamely abused. Yet the
most prejudiced critic of Jesus will not
deny hat He was the manifest man
that ever lived. 1t depends on which
we value the most, an exalted charac-
ter or a false dignity thai must be pre-
served by pugnacity.
w may learn this lesson; God will
avenge injustice done to others. He is
not only the paciicator of human
wrongs but their avenger as we'll. If
one has harmed you, even though it
was done twice over, and you are will
ing to wait in patience. God will see
that justice is done you If He has not
the power hen He is but a myth; if
He has h power and will not, then
He cannot be depended upon. But you
may depend on Him if you will. Our
trouble is we ave no faith and SO have
no patience. We live only for the life
that, now is. and consequently we do
not live truly. For in our living for
the life that now is we live only for
the baser part of it, that which may be
seen and touched"

magnetism since he entered the West
ern conference.
Special musical numbers were also
rendered during the service.

PRAISES NEWARK

Alfred GaskiII, State Forester,

thing is done to prevent the wholesale
depredations of insects anon the trees
all over the State, according 10 the
statement of Alfred Gaskill, Stats
forester. The beetle, .almostas much az
home in New Jersey as the mosquito,
is showing itself so unappreciative of
the beauties and benefits of trees gen
orally as to eat them alive; the gypsy
moth, another native, is denuding and
damaging vegetation with an ardor
worthy of a better caHse, and the
brown. tail moth. feeding lu%xuriantly
upon the splendid shade trees in
Massachusetts,. upon the preservation of
which more than 81 00, 200 has been
expended in the past ten years, has hit

next feeding place.

deem it my duty TO tell the people OF
New Jersey that unless there is an inn

for the preservation of forest and shade

BOY OF SIX TESTIFIES
AT BIG ~CAMPMEETING.
Great Numbers Attend Services
in Ocean Grove.

OCEAN GROVE, Aug. 3O.-The fea-
ture of the first day of campmeeting
yesterday was a testimonial service in
the morning in the Auditorium. where
5000 people gathered. At this service
little John Proudfoot, of Harrisburg,
Pa, aged 6 years, got up n fearlessly
faced the throng to give his testimony,
being the youngest person ever heard
here at a similar service.
The sermons of the morning and
evening were preached by the Rev. DR..
Andrew Gillies, of Minneapolis. Bishop
Luther B. Wilson, who is to leave for
the West late today, conducted a meet
ing for men only in the afternoon and
at 6 o'clock the Rev. DR.. Aaron E. Bal
lard held a meeting on the shore.
There was a great scene at Mrs. Liz
zie. Smiths meeting, where. in response
to an urgent Invitation, penitents knelt
at the altar amid the rejoicing of the
throng. At his meeting the message
was brought by DR.. Monroe Vayhinger,
of Taylor University, Upland, Ind.
Although this is supposed to be a
Methodist camp, a census of the at
tendance shows many of other denomi-
nations.
At the Helping Hand service in the
morning Mrs. Pattie Watkins Lindsay,
formerly of the Volunteers of America
and now at the head of the Peoples
Temple in Newark, was present to lend
her voice and effort.
The. afternoon meeting, led by Mrs.
Elizabeth Smith, had a large audience,
and there were some to kneel at the
altar and some to request prayer. Bish-
op Wilson led the pentecostal meeting
in the afternoon in the temple at 2:30
o'clock, and at 5 o'clock there was a
brief service on the beach, at the foot
of Ocean Pathway. The leader at the
latter meeting was the Rev. DIR. Bal
lard.

and addresses of the Painfield conven-
ton the same will not be published.
THE special work laid upon all the
Christian Endeavor Societies for the

aggregate of 10, 900 new societies, with
/, 200, 900 new members, all to be secured
between now and the convention of
1911. New Jersey has pledged herself
to gain her proportion of this increase,
and we are depending upon you for the
fulfilling of this pledge made in your
behalf at the st. Paul convention.
Every locality in our State must be
thoroughly and intenigently canvassed
for the organizing of new societies and
to increase the interest and member
ship of those already existing. VIII

in your society and go to work in your
village, town or city.

LIES GAME NOT ONE OF
CHANCE, PASTOR SAYS.

Two noted .clergymen filled the pull
pits of local churches yesterday. The
Rev. DR.. John A. Wilson, LII. D., of AL
legheny Seminary, preached in the
First United Presbyterian Church in
Belleville venue. and the Rev. DR.. ].
H. Macdonald, of Chicago, in st. Luke's
Methodist Episcopal Church. in Clinton
avenue.
DR.. Macdonald discoursed on the
topic Low Standards" in the morning.
In his evening" session, The Game of
Life" he took life's game by its weak
est play and showed that the winning
hand came, not through a chance
throw, but by means of a consistent,
energetic effort expended along a right
eous line of endeavor.
The choirs at both churches provided
special musical numbers.

ROCHESTER PASTOR
MAY BE CALLED HERE.
BelleviIle Avenue Church Seeks
Successor to DR.. Shipherd.

Notwithstanding that the Belleville
Avenue Congregational Church board
has not as yet extended a call to a
pastor to succeed the Rev. Theodore NJ.
Shipherd, it is said that the
of the pulpit yesterday morning by the
Rev. Harold S. Capron, of Rochester, is
significant. He is an energetic and at
tractive speaker n his delivery and
pulpit personality pleased the large
congregation, which had gathered to
hear him.
The parsonage of the church at $50
Broad street, isjnow vacant and a ma
jority of the local consistory board are
anxious to call a new pastor as soon as
possible. None of the members care to
say to whom a call will be extended,
as an acceptance must be duly re-
ceived and acted upon, before the mat
ter can be given out for publication.
