Welcome the coming. speed the

the day at the First Methodist church
Sunday evening. Il will be an old.
fashioned watch night service with
some modern additions. The pastors
OF other churches are cooperating in
the service as well as the Salvation
Army and other organizations, so il
will have something of the aspect of
a community family gathering to
watch out the old and welcome the
new year And as sufficient variety
has been provided in the program of
the evening, no one need fear that he
will be overcome with sleep. There
VIII be something doing all the
time.
The meetings OF the young people Of
the intermediate and senior leagues
will be one hour later than usual, be-
ginning at 7:30. The regular evening
service will begin at S:45, so that
those who have attended other
churches will have opportunity to at

congregation. In 1874 the Methodist
Episcopal church divided on the slav-

denominations. During the past two
years the general conferences of each
branch has voted unanimously in fav-

ies after their separation of over 70
years. The commissioners from the
two churches met on Friday, Dec. %,
in Baltimore, to arrange for this re-
union. The $4,000 pastors of both
bodies have been asked to preach on
this Sunday when the commission is
in session on The Spirit of Metho
dism," and to observe the day espe-
cially as one of prayer. These re-
quests will be carried out in the local
church. In the recent discussion of
church union this is the most import

Character is growth. In silence the
miracle proceeds. Like Solomon's
temple, no sound is heard thereon.
The greatest forces are wrought in
secrecy ny gravity and sunshine. hut
out Of the silence comes the fruitful
vineyard, the food of orchards, the
splendor of pine and palm, of oak and
elm. So under Ills mothers influence
Jesus increased in wisdom and grew
as the tree grows, increasing daily in
the fear of God and of man.
II was this blessed influence of the
Virgin that must have taught the
Christ pity and compassion. Jesus as
the world cosmopolitan was moved
with compassion in the presence of
human grief and woe Mans soul is

the intermeshes of the individual with
politics. business and society, and all

But Is there an unfathomable mystery
connected with the Christ? No. for
we have in Him the revelation of the
love divine, which has ever surround

down the pathway of human life. The
inspiration OF Jesus in modern life
comes rom the fact that il is not a

source Of ing power on which man
may journey into the heights and

We may trace the greatness of

his mother. II has been we'll said
