ROBABLY no Writer-certainly
no poet-has so we'll caught the
spirit of St Paul, the first great
missionary of the gospel, as Mr..
Myers In his lines we find
mirrored the depth of feeling, the I'M
diving faith, the power Of vision, and the
picture of future redemption which st.
Paul in his writings shows with such
inspired speech. And he gives alike the
deep personal emotions and the wide
spreading enthusiasm of the wonderful
apostle as accurately as painter places
on canvas the coloring of a landscape. or
as a musician brings from his instru-
ment the sobs and alleluias of the hui
man heart. The little poem "St. Paul
is a rich production, well repaying close
study.
We are asked today to mount on some
Pisgah of modern faith and vision and
see what Christianity has done and is
doing throughout the world. And a
splendid revelation greets us as we gaze.
The whole world is calling for God, and
those wh~ have found Him are magnify
ing His power by the newness of their
lives. In darkest Africa, in the islands
of the sea, in China and Japan, in India.
among the Mohammedans and in the
weird Businesses of the arctic circle the
dear old story of Jesus and His love is
bringing multitudes to peace and to
blessed salvation. We may we'll cry in
the words of Samuel John Stone the
Staffordshire hymn writer who has
bound Christians together by his in
spired THE Churchs One Foundation'D
in his hymn of thanks wing for mis-
sions:
Lord of the Harvest it is right aud meet
That should lay first fruits at Thy feet
With iOyful Aleuluia.
Yea, West and East the companies go forth
We comet Is sounding to the South and North;
10 God sing Alleu.uia.
Glory 10 God. the Church in patience cries:
Glory 10 God. The Church rest replies
With endless Alleuluia.
We will not attempt to give even an
outline of missionary progress. Chris
tianS should read about missions in the
many missionary magazines and in the
splendid missionary libraries so freely
and economically published today. To
some the story will be revelation; to
others it will call for greater effort and
more complete conservation in view of
own. Much remains to be done, but
broad foundations have been laid and
multitudes are entering the kingdom. On.
the fascination of the study of missions
and missionaries. Nothing in all litera-
ture quite equals it, for it reveals God in
every word.
But We will faSten our meditation upon
certain salient points which have made
and are making today our work in foreign
lands wonderfully productive of results.

ENGLISH FIGHT
VERY BITTER
Seventy Constituencies Elect
Members of Parliament
To morrow
RISJLT WILL INDICATE
The FINAL OUTCOME

By United Press Leased Special Wire.
LONDON, Dec. 2.-The parliament
tary campaign now drawing to a close
has reached a most unusual degree
Of vituperation and slander. Poii-
ticians agree that England has not
experienced so bitter a campaign in
the present generation.
Accusations of treason, theft and
lying are made In nearly every politi-
cal speech, and Il is expected that
the conclusion of the campaign Will
be marked by scores Of slander
suits.
In seventy constituencies I'm Eng
land tomorrow, members OF the new
Parliament will be elected, and in all
political circles to-day II is conceded
that the result of to-morrow's voting
Will be a splendid indication of the
final outcome of the battle between
the Conservatives and the Liberals
then Lords and the commons.
With the important issues that are
at stake, there is an unexplained
apathy prevalent among the voters
and paid canvassers are to-day rak-
ing the country TO reach the indiffer-
ent voters and secure their pledges.
More than 200 of the nominations
for constituencies have been made
and the final issues joined Leader
A. J. Balfour OF the Unionists, and
Joseph Chamberlain have been nomi-
mated without opposition, and are thus
ensured Of their seats.

THEIR FIGHT HAS WON

By United Press Leased Special Wire.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.-Dragglng
the frayed banners OF insurgents out
from their summer resting places,
George w. Norris, Representative
from Nebraska and floor leader OF
the Republican insurgents to-day be-
gan preparations for the coming ses-
sion of Congress.
Norris the first of the insurgent
Representatives to reach the capitol
is convinced that this will be a "blg
session" for insurgency.
"The country is behind us," Norris
declared. to-day. "The election show
ed that the fight we progressives
have been making has won the sup
port of the people. Wherever pro-
gressive ran on a clean progressive
platform without complicating issues,
he won. And we are going to keep
up the good work"
Norris is of the opinion that the
insurgents this session will concen-
trate their fight on the method OF ap-
pointing the committees of the House.
In fact, the ground work for that
fight was quietly laid just before ad-
iournment last spring. At that time
Norris introduced and had referred to
the committee on rules a resolution,
which If the insurgents can force It
through, will revolutionize the con-
duct Of business in the House. Only
a few among the insurgents knew
of the resolution which will probably
be the basis Of their fight for the
next three months.
Tho proposition Is to take tho place
of the plan for a committee on com
mittees,' which the insurgents advo-
Gated last session, and is framed as
an Improvement on that plan II pro-
vides for the election of the mem
bers Of the principal committees.

will get together next week, soon az
