The reports which were presented

led all to be flourishing condition. 1t
lis especially worth noting, that tho
the year began with considerable
debt, it closed, with a balance OIL hand;
and the membership of the church has
a net increase on the year of Is.
So we are beginning this new year
hopefully, because we believe Hope is
a vigorous principle; it is furnished
with light and heat to advise and exc
cute it sets the head and heart to
work, and animates man to do his ut
most. And thus by perpetually push
ing and assurance, it puts difficulty
out of countenance and makes seem
ing impossibility give way Failure
will hurt but not hinder us. Disillu-
sion will pain but not dishearten us.
Sorrows will shake US but not break
|us. Hope will set the music ringing
and quicken our tagging pace. We
need hope for living far more than
for dying. Dieing is easy
work compared with living. Dieing
is a moments transition; living, a
transaction of years. It is the length
of the rope that puts the sag in it.
Hope tightens the cord and tunes up
the heart strings. Work, we'll, then;
suffer patiently, rejoicing in hope,
God knows all, and yet is the Goo OF
Hope. And when we have hoped to
the end here, He viii give us some
thing Ito look forward to, for all eter-
nifty for Hope Abideth."
