ed. The excellent work of the music
committee was also given recognition,
On motion of Mr.. Sears McHenry, an
additional resolution was adopted as
follows:
Realizing that the Sunday school is
an indispensable department of the
church, and that high standard of ef-
ficiency should be reached and main
tanned, and also realizing the great
benefit we have derived from the con-
vention just closing, and further real
izing that the phenomenal success OF
this convention was largely due to
the excellent work Of the two state
representatives sent to us, be it .;,-
RESOLVED: First, that the Craw-
ford County association express to the
general secretary of the Iowa Sunday
School Association our appreciation
for having sent to us workers with
such high ideals and clearness of vi
sion as Mr.. O.. G. 'Herbrecht and Miss
Elizabeth Dean, whose messages Of
inspiration and instruction have CIV
en- us a broadened conception of the
work of the Kingdom as wrought out
through the Sunday school, and,
RESOLVED: Second, that we
pledge our loyal support to our newly
elected county officers so that our
present standard may be maintained
and such progress made that will put
Crawford county in the 100 per cent
class next year, and, ..
RESOLVED: Third, that this coun-
ty association heartily commends the
careful consideration given the in
dividual county associations by the
state association in personnel and in
equipment for the county conventions,
and,
/ iRESOLVED:. Fourth, that a copy of
these resolutions be sent to the gener-
al secretary of the state association
and that a copy be spread upon the
minutes of this county ASSOCIATION:
t. There is an evident feeling that the
Sunday schools in the county are
about to catch the inspiration which
is alive in the churches, and to do
splendid work for the, coming year.
Mr.. Hoffman, the county secretary is
a master in arranging plans, and do.
ing his best to have them carried out
The attendance at this convention from
those living outside of Denison was
most gratifying Indeed there were
so many present that while a list was
kept through the excellent work of
the enrolment committee we have not
the space to publish the same.

April Good the Father Almighty.
Psa. 1903, 10; lisa. 4: 1929; Matt. 6,
25-32. -
We are to have some great lessons
in April. Just note what will be the
topics considered: God the Father
Almighty" Christ the Worlds Eman-
cipator;" "The Meaning of Christ's
Resurrection" "What the Holy Spirit
Does for U.s." What mighty and
important group this makes. 1t Is
enough to know that the Easter les
son comes this month to be sure that
there cannot fail to be things said and
thoughts set forth of mOmentous i'm
portance to us all.
: Today we have that great theme as
to the fatherhood of God. God your
father, my father, what mighty host
Of things well up in the mind. The
deepest chords of our being respond
to a touch which calls to mind what
our earthly father was to us, has been,
and is now. Love, care, endeavors for
our good, sacrifice for our benefit, cor
rections for wrong doing, a heart full
of tenderness; desire to help us; sor-
rows over our acts of willfulness and
straying from the paths Of right;
righteousness, more than readiness to
forgive; our consolation in hours of
pain, suffering, lcnesomeness. This
and much more makes up the quail
ties of the true father, and happy is
the person who has been blessed with
a father of this kind The scripture
says that like as father pitieth his
children so the Lord pitieth those
who fear Him, and again Jesus in
talking of; our, earthly parent and the
heavenly One, said that if our hui
man parents. are willing to give good
gifts unto their children how much
more is the heavenly Father ready to
bestoW needed thing to those who ask
Him. The basic thought of the New
Testament is John 3, 16, which says
that God so loved the world that He
gave, His only begotten Son for its
redemption. We have been seeing in
the lessons Of the last half year of
the father love and protection given
the Israelites from Abraham onward.
The scripture reference in the
Psalms sets forth that Like as
father pitieth his children so Jehovah
pitieth them that fear Him." and this
great promise is further expressed in
the spirit Of the connecting verses.
Isaiah breaks forth in alteration to
the everlasting God, who is never
weary, and giveth power to the faint.
jeremiah ceases from his forebodings
of disaster to Israel to say that God
would be called my Father" :and
would not have us turn away from
following Hin. 2L WY s,t:-
The opening sentence of the great
prayer taught the world by Jesus be-
gins, with that all important state
rient that God is Our. Father in
heaven ! In the verses in Matthew
Jesus so magnificentlyp set forth the
care Of God bver us. and all creation
when He tells of Gods care 'of the
birds OF thelair, the flowers of the
field, and readiness to care for us who
The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1919-04-02

are Of much more Importance in His
sight; having immortal souls. There
is plea that we be not worried over
the events of tomorrow with its needs,
but to trust in God who is we'll aware
of the things we truly need. ...
In that noted address on Mars Hill
at Athens the great Apostle Paul set
forth in words which have made the
occasion famous forever, that God
hath made of one blood all nations OF
men, and that all are His offspring.
1t is this feeling of brotherhood felt
in America which caused this country
to arise to help the downtrodden ones
of Belgium, France. Italy, Armenia
and Bohemia. Thus the sight was seen
of nation whose borders were not
in danger, which was under no treaty
obligations to assist, voluntarily COM
ing forward to help those who were
strangers, except being brothers
through the common brotherhood of
God. ....''.g
There is given you and me that
most important promise that we are
sons of God and joint heirs with
Christ to the -glories, powers, joys of
the life beyond the grave. This is
based on the fatherhood of God, and
thus the desire to help all who cry to
Him with faith. When this is under
stood in all its true meaning, the
words of the psalmist come to mind as
most fitting ''Bless the Lord o my
soul and all that is within me bless
His holy NAME" ~ .-.~ ...
This subject could be written of
with profit for many pages, but hope
enough has been said to establish
that God is our Almighty Father, and
that this being so, we all have the
rights of sonship and the love, care,
protection and heirship in heaven
which goes with this happy state of
|affairs. Further, than that, this SON.
ship is given freely but can be re-:
jected and there is such a thing as
spurning the love of the heavenly
Father and being in the end cut off.
1t is my earnest prayer that no reader
of this column will deny sonship to-
God but rejoice in it and act as ap-
preciative sons and daughters should,
and reap the benefits of blessed etern-
al life in the mansions which Jesus
told about in John IA. a =. s:...."
