1iest Methodism in America at Sans

made Thursday by Methodists of all
denominations from Baltimore, from
Washington and other cities of this
part of the country.
Under the auspices of the American
Methodist Historical Society four spe-

Meeting House, oldest building used
for Methodist worship now standing in

Grafton of all Christian Endeavorers
the words of Amos R. Wells in his
notes upon this weeks topic:
"For one next step our society
should examine its pledge-keeping,
strengthen the weak places in its
pledge-observance. magnify it and
not minimize it. Another next step
we should take is to do more for the
church, especially by taking part in
the midweek prayer meeting and at
tending the Sunday evening service.
This would do much for the kingdom
Of God"
Our steps first and last should lead
us to the church. It is the one only

society the thing to avoid is stasna-
ton.
The progressive step cannot be taken
by those who are ignorant of the first
principles of the oracles of God.
Many societies are stagnant for the
reason given by Paul in his letter to
the Hebrews (chapter 5:12-14):
For when for the time ye ought to
be teachers, ye have need that one
teach you again which be the first
principles of the oracles of God; and
are become such as have need of milk.
and not of strong meat. For every one
that useth milk is unskillful In the
word of righteousness: for he is a
babe. But strong meat belongeth unto
them that are of full age, even those
who by reason of use have their senses
exercised to discern both good and
evil"
by reason of use" of the word Of
righteousness men are enabled to dis
cern and to take each step in the di-
rection of good.
In all of our societies there are many
who ought to be teachers who are in
need that ono teach them again the

The next right step is in doing with

No progress is made unless the prom

performance.

The Measure Of Merit.

II we measure up to our capacities and
opportunities. however great may be our
Limitation. we merit the highest COM
mendations. Our next step should always
be in the direction of deeper spiritual
life. In this course lies the sure prep
aration for doing great things and 1t will
be great thing If it is only a cup of
cold water in the name Of a disciple. The
commendation is for doing what we can
do. Gods will is never that we should
undertake the impossible.
When Christ was in Bethany in the
house Of Simon. the leper, there came a
woman who poured precious ointment on
His head. Some were indignant at the
waste and murmured against her; but
the Master said: Let her alone. She
hath done what she could. Verify, say
unto you, wheresoever this gospel shall
be preached throughout the whole world.
this also that she hath done shall be
spoken Of for a memorial Of her"
When 1t can be said of us that We
have done what we could, we are assured
Of an everlasting memorial Of worth and
excellence.

our special gift we are in line for more
rapid advance in doing our best work.
Having gifts differing according to
the grace that is given to us. whether
prophecy, let US prophesy according to
the proportion Of faith, or ministry, let
us wait on our ministering. or He
that teacheth, on teaching. or He that
exhorteth, on exhortation; he that
riveth. let him do 1t with simplicity:
he that ruleth with diligence; he that
showeth mercy with cheerfulness."

II you do not know, your next step is
to find what II is. Do not rest satisfied
until you fnd out in what line of en-
deavor you can do the best work and ac-
complish the greatest good. Then pursue
it with all diligence and you will find as
grace increases that you can do better
on each succeeding day until you reach

The Oracles Of God.

1t is through knowledge Of the
principles of Christianity and an appli-
cation Of those principles in the daily
life that men individually and in as
ISOLATED capacities learn what steps
are to be taken for the greatest pos
sible good to be attained. Therefore,
above all things, study the oracles Of
God as made known in His written
word.
The betterment Of our societies is
conditioned upon our knowledge and
observance of the will of God. and 1t is
the entrance of His word in the heart
that giveth light and understanding
for advancing steps.
Our next step depends upon what the
last one has been. If 1T has been in an
unscriptural and unspiritual direction,
the next step should be q retracing
one. Right advancement is not pos
sible unless we have our senses exer-
cised to discern both good and evil, and
are able to eschew evil and do good,
Enlightenment to this end Is found
only in the word Of revelation There
fore, search the Scriptures" They are
the only infallible guide.

Specific Steps.

The next step in specific directions
for the various societies to take may
vary greatly.
With some it may be in the line Of
greater interest in foreign missions,
and with others In the direction Of res
cue mission work, or in the study of
civic problems. or in the increase in
membership and attendance, or in the
the hundred per cent efficiency accord
ing to the efficiency chart, or In mag
nifying the importance Of pfedge-keep-
ing as 1t relates to loyalty to the
week and Sunday evening services,
Unless this step IL taken our societies
will prove a hindrance instead Of a
help to the church.
