ter and Paul had done it. Papa Gregory, at
Rome, sent Abbott Augustine and forty
monks to convert the heather of England, =
the Angles and Saxons and native stocks.
These missionaries went at their task by
preaching. And they kept on preaching I'M
til they made converts. After that, they or
ganized churches Rome never sent penny
to the English churches and schools 1t was
just ahe other way. The English churches
and schools not only supported themselves, but
contributed generously to the revenues of
Papa at Rome.
In Ireland, Patrick pursued the methods of
Paul. and took Erin by storm. So intense
was the zeal of these converts, that Irish mis-
sionaries went forth to spread the glad It'd
ings among the Highlands of Scotland, among
theFris1ans of the North Sea, among the
mountaineers of the Apennines. Along the
shores of Lake Constance, Irish missionaries
walked and preached; an Irish hero the
Faith, Columbia, planted the standard of the
cross on the bleak rock of Iona, and fought
the good fight, as Paul fought 1t, until the
banner of Christ flew over all the Western
Isles.
Not a single one Of these missionaries drea0
from the Home church the financial support
of their churches and schools. Without any

exception, the mission schools and churches
were maintained by the native converts.
Therefore, if Watson has departed from
common sense, he is in mighty good company.
(2) Combating Watsonology in the matter of
feeding, clothing, physicking, educating and
Oceanics; to the neglect of Caucasian chill
dren who are in need of these things in
Christian America, the Florida Advocate says
the amsa0er is, "The field as the qoorzd, and ONE
part Of that q0orzd IS just as precious as amy
other part"
In other words, if we leave some thousands
of little white children to slave out their lives

never said it." Nowhere has Brother Watson
contended that "the foreigner himself should
be the exclusive missionary" Watsons posi-
ton is that we should follow the example set
by those pioneer missionaries who heard
Christ explain his meaning, or who had that
meaning explained to them by apostles who
had listened to the Master. We contend that
Peter and Paul and Tin10thy understood their
business. We modestly but firmly insist that
the model for missionary work, left by the
original converts and apostles, must be the
correct and divine model.
1t was missionary work of that character
which converted entire nations to Christ No
nation has eUer been converted By the mod
e17a, nascriptat4aZ methods.
The Florida editor who comes to the rescue
of Rev. W. @. Lovett, d. d., seeks to refute
Mr.. Watson by referring to the manner in
which the Anglo-SaXons were converted. A
study of the historical facts will convince any
unbiased mind that Europe was won to
Christ By primitive, apostolic methods.
Where monarch, like Charlemagne, con-
quers people, like the Saxons, and draws his
sword upon the captives, saying, persuasively,
Acknowledge Christ or I'll have your heads
cut off, "-even an excited fanatic on foreign
missions will scarcely claim that the method
is canonical. The truth is, that every real
change of heart and of spirit brought about
among the nations of earth by the Gospel of
Christ, has been the result Of faithful 0d-
terence TO scripta0az instructions and apOs-
tO15c examples.
So late as the year 597, after Christ, we find
mission work being conducted precisely as Pc

Departure from Common Sense

From the "Florida Christian Advocate" is
copied into the wesleyan Christian Advo
cate" an editorial in which the writer under
takes to demolish "Watsonology on Foreign
Missions" Says the demolisher "Let us note
a few of his departures from common sense"

vided we have busted ourselves with vice,
crime, pauperism and paganism in some for

So says "The Florida Christian Advocate
and seemingly, it's position is approved by
Rev. w. G. Lovett, D. D.
Well. we cannot subscribe to so unnatural
and ungodly a doctrine as that Common
sense has precious little to do with such IA
naticism. Primarily, each of us IS responsible
for his own child, not his neighbours child;
for his own household, not that of his neigh

much to say in the July number of The JET
FERsoN1AN MAGAZINE, and we will not 60 over

in the election contest entered by
Pickens Pearson.
: Alverson was elected Treasurer oyer
Pearson last November, In a close con-
test. with barely nifty votes apart. At
ter the returns were canvassed. the de-
feated candidate entered contest. be-
fore the Probate Judge of st. Clair
County,
Pearson alleged that the election in
Beat 10 was Illegally held. ana the re
turns therefrom were void. Now Beat
10 had returned for Pearson 10 votes.
and for Alverson. los. II this We're
thrown out. then the small majority
would be overbalanoed on the other
side.
But the Probate Judge decided that
the contestant, Pearson. had failed 10
give security for the costs OF the pro
ceedings within the required time. and
that there was an insufficient statement
Of the contest in the complaint. and
therefore dismissed the~bill
Pearson appealed, but Justice Sinnp.
SON settled matters by declaring thai
the Probate Judge was warranted in
the dismissal, and that the election
shall stand.
