REVIVAL MEETINGS.

There will be a series of revival
meetings at the Church of the Breth-
rem one mile north and three miles
west of Wauseon, Ohio, conducted by
the Rev. J. L. Guthrie of Upper San
dusky, Ohio.
These meetings will be for every
body and as Rev. Guthrie is a power
full, enthusiastic and clear speaker,
a profound and sincere thinker, he un-
derstands the Bible well and does not
hesitate to preach it as he understands
it, and under the instructions of such
a man we believe that the public will
be made to see the necessity of living
an ideal christian life. Christians
everywhere are asked to join in pray
er with the members of this church,
praying for the success of this meet
ing that precious souls who know not
Christ as their Redeemer may be turn
ed from darkness unto the true and
marvellous light. Everyone is invit-
ed to be present at these meetings
every evening as they shall continue.
You can't afford to miss them. Re-
member the date, January 18. Come
and bring others with you.

OUR HELPER
The Definite Person-The Relation of
Character to BeIief-The Wisdom
of Adopting the Best-The Univer-
sal Principle of Success-Good
News.
By w. 7. Williams.

1t has been said more than once of
late that every man ought too have
something slowed away in some cor
ner of his being for which he would be
willing at any time to sacrifice all he
has, even himself. This is certainly
admirable because it means a type of
defniteness which is exceedingly brac-
ing. 1t takes hold of ones soul and
makes one feel that he is living for
something worth while. His life be-
comes precious in his sight, and this
cannot be for nought. We all know
that such an idea cannot take root in
our systems without bearing fruit,
perchance hundredfold. 1t is so full
of glorious possibilities, SO full of in
spiration, so full of that energy which
is so reliable, that it is difficult for
any person to imagine the force of
its warmth. Making ones self definite
In thought, in word, in deed, is surely
worthy of our best efforts.
Of course, the value of this PROPOSE
ton depends wholly on what we have
taken in hand. 1t cannot be other
wise. Some care ought to be exercis-
ed in adopting this basis of action, for
in the last analysis a mans charac-
ter will be very much like his belief,
or his philosophy. A very close rela
ton exists between what a man is
and what he believes. 1t is necessary
then for our principles to be salutarv
and right for this reason. Indeed.
would we be saying too much if we
would say that it is essential? After
giving this matter some thought, tax
ing advantage of all we have seen and
heard, this answer is: we fail to see
that it is. 1t is absolutely in keeping
with the best we have learned, prov
en- and tried in the fiery furnace of
everyday experience. Hitherto this
has not been successfully denied, and
some philosophers have gone so far
along this line as to teach that the
constitution of man must be changed
before it can be an iota different.
Therefore, if we hold erroneous con-
ceptions of the fundamentals Of life,
our lives must be more or less Grip
pied. Our characters will not be
sterling in quality. We will never at
tain mature manhood and the stature
of ull-grown men.
This is enough to justify our posi-
ton. Something central we must
have, and according to our under
standing of that power that permeates
the world, ameliorating the conditions
of the human kind with continual in
crease, we are wise if we adopt the
best, using the same with rare tack
and judgment. The Teacher who can
never grow obsolete has affirmed: eff
We know these things, blessed are ye
if we do them.' Knowing the best
there is and doing it is sufficient to

1 PLEASANT ANNIVERSARY.

A successful surprise party occurred
at the home of Mrs c. Clingaman, at
Burlington on Saturday evening, Jan.
uary 9, 1915, it being the occasion of
the seventeenth anniversary of the
birthday of her granddaughter, Miss
Rheua P. Nofziger. The party was
arranged by Mrs. G. P. Nofziger, who
with her daughter spent part of the
evening with friends at Elmira, and
on their return to Miss Rhuea's sur
prise found about thirty-fve of her
friends and relatives assembled anx-
iously awaiting her arrival. Greetings
in general were extended, the remain
ing part of the evening being spent
in games and music, after which re-
freshments were served. The out of
town guests were: Miss Grace Sim
mons, Mrs. Mabel Keesbery, of Sher-
wood. Ohio; Miss Martha E. Pitson, of
Toledo, Ohio; and Mr.. Melvin Wentz,
of Swanton, Ohio.

secure for any person that peace and
Joy which is very far beyond the reach
of the audacious fingers of the wear
and tear of time. 1t will remain in
tact. 1t will not be injured in our
daily grind. It is equal to the ordeal.
Against the onslaughts of life, which
rub US so severely, we must fortify
ourselves; and to do so much we must
have at our service the most effective
force that has been made known to
the world. Everything pertaining to
our being demands this. and we have
been enabled to discern among ten
thousand that which is most suitable
to our needs. We have been equipped
on such a large scale that when we
err, we are against ourselves our most
rigid. unmerciful judges. An insight
of this nature is not to be disparaged,
nor held lightly. 1t is too signific-
ant to be set aside without giving it
due consideration.
What then do we say is the first
cure this protection? Would it be
wrong to say that confidence is the
condition of success in every channel? :?
Can we imagine the possibility of be-
ing successful in any way without
confidence? Is not confidence the
universal guide of men? Has any
thing been accomplished without it
These questions are pointed and must
be answered intelligently and fairly.
They must not be begged. The peo-
pie who have been successful in this
world along any line have been peo-
pie of great faith. They believed, and
following this they wrought with
might and main. The real estate agent
bought lbs lots because he believed
that their value would advance. The
business man opened his store because
he had confidence in his chances to sell
his wares. The farmer sowed his
seed because he looked forward with
faith to the time of harvest. The
scientist labored and toiled with the
seeming impossible because he felt as
sured that he would find what he
sought. There is no success without
faith. It is the universal condition
walks by faith. Edward Bulwer Lyt-
ton has wisely said in his poem be-
ginning with the following lines:
tThere is no unhelief;
Whoever plants a seed beneath the
sod
And waits to see it push away the clod
He trusts in God"
What is faith? When We use the
word faith in ordinary speech we know
exactly what we m,as We know de-
finiIely the idea which we want to con-
vey mken we use the term, and we st.
ter it-v ,iaut fear, IS we should do.
We are not supposed to be afraid of
it. There is nothing IN the nature of
the word that justifes the slightest
dread, and when we read it in the New
Testament it has no other meaning.
This book was written in the language
of the people. The authors of it were
rd-working men, and they aimed at
being clear in every move. They were
direct in their efforts, and it was not
their intention to poster a single in
dividual with ambiguous terms. An
ancient author has declared that
"faith is a well-grounded assurance
of that for which we hope, and con-
viction of the reality of things which

GOVERNOR WILLIS
Frank Bartlett Willis Inaugerated
Fiftieth Governor of Ohio In the
Presence of Thousands who Gather
ed From All Parts of The State To
Witness The Event.

Shortly after noon on Monday JAN
uary 11th Governor elect Frank B.
Willis took the oath of office and be-
came the fftieth governor of the
State of Ohio. The ceremonies were
held in the open and notwithstanding
alternating snow and rain the thou
sands of men, women andN children
who had gathered in Columbus from
every section of the State to witness
the inauguration, remained standing
in the State House yard through the
ceremonies and to the conclusion of
Governor Willis inaugeral address.
A platform had been erected at the
west front of the State House and on
this platform with his wife and his
aged parents near him Mr.. Willis re-
ceived from Ex-Governor Cox the GER
tifcate of his election and the solemn
oath Of office was administered by
Chief Justice Hugh L. Nichols.
The Bible used in administering the
oath of office is an heirloom in the
governors family it was originally the
property of the governors great
grandfather and three generations OF
the Willis family have read its pages.
In presenting the certificate OF cleo
ton Ex-Governor Cox said:
I "It becomes my duty now to pre-
sent to the new governor his creden-
tials, a commission which speaks the
verdict of the state. In yielding to
you, sir, the position of chief execu-
tive. there goes my pledge as priv
ate citizen to stand behind you with
our citizenship, with all the support
which the love of our institutions IN
spires. in times of stress which may
arise during your administration. May
the God of all nations quicken your I'M
pulse to preserve this government In
such form as will continue to hold the
confidence and love of our people"
Governor Willis in his inaugeral ad-
dress outlined policy of no interfer-
ence with the legislative functions OF
the General Assembly but expressed
the hope that they will not try to
make too many laws. Very clearly
he indicated that while nominated and
elected through partisan organization
he held that when he took the oath OF
office he became the executive serv-
ant of all the people and that he would
deal Justly with all harboring nc
grudge against any. The closing SEN
tences of Governor Willis address are
worthy of being committed to mem
ory and being made the personal re-
solve of every Ohio citizen:
With hearts overfowing with graft
tude to the Almighty for, the bless
ings we now enjoy, and with souls cry
| ing out for His guidance in all things
let us dedicate ourselves to the task
of establishing and maintaining jus,
tice, mercy, truth and fraternal gooc
will.
Inspired by the heroic story Of
Ohio,s past, encouraged by the bless.
ings vouchsafed to US in the present
llet us face the future of human pro
gress determined to do our part con
! scientiously, uprightly and in the feal
of God.
