Is children.
Another well known convict who will

Three times Addie Burns has applied
for a pardon. but has twice Withdrawn

hearing arrived.
Addie Burns has been at the state
prison nearly seven years. She went
there January %, 1909, which makes

nine months.
} 1t is argued that the penalty was
too severe and that sufficient pun

Addie Burns is So years old and it
is advanced as reason for granting
the pardon that she is now reaching

gatherings.
Rev. c. A. Northrop said, The sense
Of responsibility. an absolute necessity
for what? Efficiency. Man puts HIS
whole self into what he is doing, your
ehtciency is measured by the hearth
ness you put into your work. We have
what Solomon did not have, GSi in
Christ manifested here on earth and
the whole experience of the Christian
centuries behind US. Can there be
anything simpler or anything harder
than to keep in response to Gods sug-
gestfons? You work and toll and
strive and gain and lose for those
whom you love. Isn't it possible for
us to feel that way towards Jesus I?
Only the man whose ear is attended to
Jesus Christ will hear. When we get
at the true heart Of Christian service
what may we not do? PRAYER and
Bible reading are vital, the doing of
Gods will. We are all beginning to
ask that we may be more loving, more
Christian, more like Jesus in our
hearts. We must link ourselves with
the purposes of God in Jesus Christ
and so grow. in power and efficiency,
and only thereby will salvation come
to the world.
Singing and the Mizpah benediction
was the close of a most helpful and
enthusiastic gathering.

GAVE FAREWELL MESSAGE
AT Y. N. c. A. sMEETINt
Rev. GoIdie of Yantie Was Speaker
Special Musical Numbers.

Watch and Pray was the farewell
message of Rev. NJ. Mclean Goldte,
pastor of Grace Episcopal church,
Yantic, to the men at the Y. M. c. A.
meeting in the association parlors at
$50 o'clock Sunday afternoon. Special
features of the meeting Were the two
cornet solos by Harry Brown Allen,
the boy cornetist, and the violin solo
by William Malone. General Secretary
Edwin Hill led the meeting. which
opened in the usual manner, the sing
ing of hymns, Swahn's orchestra ac-
companying. Star of the East was then
excellently rendered by the little cor
net player and Secretary Hill offered
prayer. William Malone followed with
a finely rendered violin selection and
by request Secretary Hill read part
of the sixth chapter of Matthew as the
scripture selection. Following the coll
lection of the free will offering the
hymn. I Love to Tell the Story, was
sung. ~
Rev. Mr.. Goldie, who is soon to leave
his present pastorate, began his adj.
dress by saying that it was 'bothr q
pleasure and privilege to speak to the
Y NJ. c. A. men at the beginning of
their week of prayer. Wherever You
go in the world, said Rev. Mr.. Goldie,
this association Stands for everything
that is high.
Watch and Pray was the topic of
the talk he gave the large number of
men present. Rev. Mr.. Goldie ikened
men to the ships at sea. As with the
ships, so with men in their voyages
through life, he said. Some make long
voyages some short. Valuable as the
mariners Instruments are, they are
| of no use unless there Is someone over
them to use them. So with the mar
| liner on the ocean of life.
The mariner on the ocean of life has
need to watch; has need to pray.
Prayer is the great power, which is go
| ing to carry his ship safely on its
voyage through life. Every man is
making a voyage. He is either ship
| wrecking his life or he is making a
successful venture. God has command
| ed that we look after our fefowmen.
Just as vessels have certain influences
over other vessels so your life has a
certain influence over the lives Of other
men.
| Prayer is the haven of the ship
wrecked mariner We shall never make
| a success of our venture on the ocean
of life unless we have sweet commu-
Mon with Him through prayer If we
get into the habit of SHINING we will
leave of praying. Rev. Mr.. Goldie
closed his powerful address by urg-
| ing the men to watch and pray"
Master Allen then favored the COM
pany with another cornet solo, Some
| where the Sun Is Shining, and Rev.
Mr.. Goldie pronounced the benedfction.
