REV. WEAR TELLS
OF STATE BAPTIST
CONVENTION At
LIVE OAK

On Sunday morning at the Baptist
church there was good attendance
at Sunday school for such a very
inclement morning. There were 80
officers and teachers present out of
So enrolled. 23O scholars were
present out of 460 enrolled. Superin-
tendent H. c. Stephens showed by
a series of charts the great work
that the Southern Baptists are do
| ing through the Home Board. Es-
pecially in the mountain schools in
the Highland of the Southern tSates
Bro. Wear in the morning service
read from that most beautiful Psalm
1903, an ode of praise to Jehovah for
all his manifold kindnesses, remind
ing us of the brevity of life; it as
sures us of the mercies which are
everlasting; it comforts us with the
thought of transgressions removed
as far as the east is from the west.
Special prayer was made by the
church, through Prof Angel, for
our much beloved Bro. Cabin, that
the Savior he has so faithfully
served would be with him each step
of life's journey, to sustain and
brighten the days of suffering and
pain.
After the morning offering Miss
Johnson sang so sweetly Nearer My
Fathers Home.
Bro. Wear discussed the import
ant and special matters of business
that were part of the proceeding Of
the convention at Live Oak, speaking
of this convention as one of the most
helpful and blessed that he had ever
attended. There was much cause for
thanksgiving that the State miss
board starts the new year with ev-
cry obligation paid. The only shad-
ow that the efficient secretary of
State missions, DR.. Rodgers. is fail
ing and faltering under the heavy
burdens he has borne and is consid-
ering resigning.

fine report. A secretary for the l..

in the convention were not a part
of this discourse.
AT the evnF-ng services Bro.
Wear read from the Proverbs of Sol
oman, taking for his text, Unto
you, oh men, / call and my voice is
unto the sons of men > Wisdom
call is to men that they stop and
take co2nizance of Gods wondrous
plan of salvation The voice rings
like clarion call, calling us to turn
away from the world to follow in the
footsteps of the Master and thus
possess the treasure of Gods riches
of grace. The call is to all men

Jesus calls continually IN all the

promises to be we'll attended A
large delegation is to be on hand
from Winter Haven, another from
Auburndale, and Barlow will doubt
less roll UP large crowd.
AS the time draws near for the
proposed bond election, every man
who is interested ought to give some
time and attention to these meetings
and the consideration of plans con-
corning future action. Too often the
men who take the greatest interest
in defeating plans made by others
are those who profess to be in favor
of the idea but object to the details
worked out by some one else, because
they themselvs failed to help at the
right time.
Lakeland ought to have a good
representation at the meeting on
Wednesday, and will have il each
man realizes his own personal obli-
cation. SECRETARY.
