One fact comes with nip and a
grip that will not let go. 1t is the
fact that self respect is the great mo-
tive and happier of manhood and
womanhood. When backed by the
divine approval it is the potent mo-
tive that bring US to the acme of at
tainment and of happy usefulness.
1t is granted that good name is a
good thing and that only the hope
lessly abandoned ones in their short
lived infatuations are reckless of
their good repute; but how much
higher than even that of avoiding a
besmirched name is the motive of
retaining or regaining selfrespect
and to go on serenely with the APP
proval of the nnerself-that self
from which you can never get away
either here or in the life beyond.

pleasure of the pastor of this church
to administer the sacrament of bap.
tism to IL persons down at Spring
Creek. They we're buried with
Christ by baptism. There we're
eleven of them baptized by INNER
sion and one by sprInkling. This
was a holy service there being no
conversation during the service and
as the candidates went down into
the water and up out of the water
there was an appropriate verse of
song. There were many who would
have attended this service but some
of the candidates wished that it
miget be quite affair and just the
friends of candidates knew of the
service. This was in full accord
with our views. AS we think this
one of the most sacred of services
and 1t was holy hour without con
versatien or any annoyance. We
do not wish to make holiday of
holy service.
Sunday morning we had the pleas
ure of receiving into the church 10
people in this class. There were
faur persons Of one family, grand
mother, daughter and two grand
daughters. The grandmother and
granddaughter were baptized on
last Wednesday.

Mr.. Morton Wilson was received
and baptized on Saturday night.
His two daughters we're baptized a
year ago. His mother was one Of
the charter members>of this church.
She is held in blessed memory. The
writer was called upon to conduct
her funeral before he became pastor
of the church. How beautiful it is
to see this good man consecrating
his life to the service of the Master
in the church which his mother help
ed to found. 1t is hoped and be-
lieved that he will, by his prayers,
his service and his gifts, make this
church a monument to that mothers
memory.
Let US give thanks to God for
those who laid the foundation on
which we are building. On the
tomb of a great man in "Westmln
star Abbey are these words, "The
workers die but the work goes on. "
God has raised up splendid workers
to take the place of those who are
gone
While we are speaking of this
good woman let US not forget the
one charter member who is still in
our midst Sister M. A. Williams.
Let US Que and all with words OF
good'cheer and appreciation of hei
good works and Christian character
seek to put gladness into her heart.
