Rev. d. U. WHITE, Macon, Ga., Editor,
Al) coiumnnic&tions intended for pnbUcstion in thie department) should be
addressed as above, to insure prompt attention.
Lost Time.
Our meetings often go at a
snail's gait and all are glad when
the time is up. This is due to
the absence of arrangement. The
leader should be appointed at
least two weeks before hand.
He should be thoroughly prepar
ed and not spend half the allotted
time in offering an apology.
Apologies from a leader are al
most invariably out of place and
seldom in good taste. Let him
do the best he can, or not attempt
to lead. He should say what he
has in mind and on his heart and
stop. Then each member of the
union should feel that the meet
ing in part belongs to him. If
an opportunity is given to testi
fy for Christ, let it be done
promptly and briefly. Ah!
those pauses, waiting for some
one to speak. Lord Nelson said:
‘•Five minutes make the differ
ence between a victory and a de
feat." Failing to utilize the time
makes a dull meeting.
Testimonies
are the spice in a meeting. Tes
timonies, however, are not ex
hortations. They are the decla
ration of facts and of experien
ces. Has the Lord answered
your prayer? Tell it. Haye
you tested a promise? Tell it.
Has the Holy Spirit enabled you
to win a soul? Tell it. Have
you drawn nigh to God and ex
perienced the fulness of his joy?
Speak it out. Surely every
Christian has, during one whole
week, had some fresh revelation
of the truth, some blessed fore
taste of heaven, some evidence
of growth in grace. Speak of
these things, giving God the
glory. “Then they that feared
the Lord spake often one to an
other: and the Lord hearkened,
and heard it, and a book of re
membrance was written before
him for them that feared the
Lord, and that thought upon his
name. Malachi 3:16.
Dr. Eaton to the Front Again.
An editorial in the Western
Recorder of October 3 makes the
startling announcement of a “Re
markable Action." The whole
column given to this subject is a
caustic criticism of an important
feature of the proceedings of the
B. Y. P. Convention of Georgia.
We pass by the attempt to belittle
the organization by calling atten
tion to the number of churches
represented. We do not sup
pose that our distinguished
brother despises the action of a
few brethren in 1845 when the S.
B. convention was born. In his
way he ridicules the mme be
cause forsooth, a few brethren
not so young were delegates. He
says, “This shows that they (the
older brethren) are not willing to
leave the Young People’s Union
to the management of young peo
ple. As we have said before,
either young people ought to
compose and control these so
cieties, or else the name should
be changed.” The fact is that
our convention was composed
largely of young people. There
wer? older brethren present who
took an active interest in per
fecting the organization, as had
the legal and moral right, bar
ring the permission of the Wes
tern Recorded to do. We hope
the day will never come when
brethren of wisdom and large
experience shall be conspicuous
ly absent from gatherings called
Baptist. But we contend that,
if these brethren are to be ex
cluded, the editor of the Western
Recorder because of his age, be
ing about 50, should consider
himself disqualified for the lead
ership of the opposition and
should henceforth cease his vig
orous efforts, to defeat the wish
es of the young Baptist people
of the South. We commend this
“to the earnest consideration” of
the venerable doctor.
The second part of the edito
rial questions the right of ourß.
Y. P. Convention to pass resolu
tions looking to the organization
of a Southern Union, and finally
warns the brethren selected to
make this call against violating
a second compact made at Wash
ington. D. C. last May, in a cer
tain conference, Dr. Eaton says:
This is precisely the thing which the
Washington Conference was called to
consider, which was fully and freely
discussed, when the Conference met,
and which was voted down by a large
majority. We fail to see how this new
committee can feel at liberty to take
snch a step as they are asked to take.
As we see it, they are committed not to
do anything of the kind. Largely, they
are the same ones who joined in the call
for the Conference at Washington, and
if they are not bound to acquiesce in
the action of that Conference, we fail
to see any meaning in the Conference.
Did they intend, when they called the
Conference, to go ahead anyhow and
organize a Southern Baptists Young
People's Union, regardless of whatever
action the Conference might take? Was
not the Conference called expressly to
consider the question, and to decide
what was best? These are good breth
ren whom we highly respect, and we
are sure they will do what they believe
is right: but as we see it, they are com
mitted against organizing any Southern
Baptist Young People’s Union.
It is absurd to raise
such a question. That
smacks of the methods of
political partisans in their at
tempt to lash manly persons in
to line. In the first place, the
conference at Washington was
not a delegated body. It was
without authority of the church
es. Had the Southern Baptist
Convention acted upon the ques
tion, that would have been
binding. The Convention did
recommend that “the societies
bo kept in closest touch and sym
pathy with the work of its
boards." The only question now
is, how that may be best carried
out.
The convention at Macon was
called by the Georgia State Con
vention, and was composed of
delegates appointed by the
chnrches. It was properly or
ganized and had the moral right
to say what it believed to be the
wisest plan to carry out the wish
of the S. B. Convention. That
belief is embodied in the call for
a Southern Union. The brethren
selected have no authority except
to call a meeting of delegates
appointed by local churches for
the purpose of perfecting the or
ganization of a Southern Union.
Will our honored brother ques
tion the right of the local church
in this instance?
It should be remembered that
the Washington Conference and
the S. B. Convention were two
distinct gatherings. The action
of the conference was not a part
of the proceedings of the conven
tion and in no way binding upon
its constituency.
The honored doctor will surely
admit by this time that his in
tense opposition to State organi
zation in the South has failed.
One by one the States fall in
line. Even old conservative
Georgia has a State B. Y. P. U.
and the old tar-heel state, North
Carolina, will organize in Decem
ber. Now, doctor, we propound
this question! Which do you
prefer, the B. Y. P. U. A. with
its many features so objection
able to you, or a Southern Union
wi hout such objectionable ad
denda? The one or the other is
inevitable. Please take your
choice.
THE S. B. Y. P. U.
We are glad to give our read
ers an opportunity of knowing
the views of Dr. Geo. A. Lofton,
of Nashville, Tenn., as to the
advisability and importance of a
Southern Union, Auxilary to the
S. B. Convention.
Without having the opportun
ity to confer with my colleague,
Dr. Acree, on the subject, I take
the liberty to make this an
nouncement, and heartily to con
cur in this great movement in
the interest of our Southern Bap
tist young people. Somehow, in
the providential movements of
our day, the women and the
young people have come to the
front in the great work of God;
and as the women have become
so efficient and progressive along
the lines of our S. B. C. work,
and in an auxiliary relation to
that body, it is apparent
that our young people may be
developed and utilized in the
same relation and in the same
way. Whatever may have been
the objections to the Young Peo
ple’s Movement in its independ
ent form, it is certain those ob
jections will not occur in the rela
tion of this movement in the South
to the Southern Baptist Conven
tion and its splendid work of
sending the gospel to all the
world. The objections to such a
relation and work of our wo
men have long since ceased to be
offered by any one acquainted
with their gracious and beautiful
demeanor and efforts.
It is absolutely essential to the
progressive developement of
Southern Baptists that our young
people be put in line with our
enterprises and efforts to take
the world for Christ. Many
of our children are growing up
in our country districts, towns
and cities who are under the
shadow and spell of denomina
tional indifferency regarding the
mighty march of Christianity in
the education and evangelization
of the world; and if some effort
is not made to take these young
people out from under this sha
dow and spell they will naturally
fall into the hands of those who
are alive to the issues of the day
and up and at the work of the
Master. Boys and girls, young
men and women, will drift where
there is life, energy and enter
prise in religion,as in everything
else. A very large per cent, of
Baptists are practically, if not
theoretically, opposed to educa
tional and missionary progress,
and it is our duty in this great
emergency, and under what
seems to be the call of God, to
reach out the hand of help to our
young people, as we have so lift
ed up our women into the great
work of our denomination. In
many places we are losing our
young people because others are

more active and aggressive on
the lines already suggested.
Brethren, ponder, think and
pray well before you object. We
think we have looked long and
well before leaping, and now we
call upon young people and those
favorable to the movement to
speak out ami act promptly in
this matter. It is the purpose,
if the committee agrees,to meet
in Atlanta during the Exposition,
about the 20th of November, for
the purpose of organization. To
this end arrangements will be
made and notice given in duo
time.— Haptist and llefteetor.
THE RELATION OF THE YOUNG
PEOPLE TO THE CHURCH.
ADDRESS BY REV. JOHN B. TUR-
PIN, D. 1)., AMERICUS, GA.,BE-
FORE THE B.Y.P. I'. CON.
VENTION AT MACON.
The age in which we live is
remarkable for a number of
prodignous movements. The
most casual observer cannot tail
to be impressed with this fact.
Men are uniting their efforts for
good and alas', for evil. The
earnest Christian sees the hand
of God, in those gatherings of
his people. There is no more
potent movement of modern
limes than the great movement
of the young people. It is so
simple that he who runs may
read. In numbers, in enthusi
sain. in working force this great
uprising must be taken into ac
count and used for the glory of
God and the coming of the king
dom of Christ.
We have much to encourage
us in this aspect of the great
subject which claims our atten
tion. Here are many thousands
—not all wise or great or even
good—but much the same as
the other material in all our
churches and they are crying
out with a mighty impulse:
“Here am I oh! Lord. Send me.”
It surely is no wise or scriptural
theory to stand across their
pathway, and command them to
hold their peace —rather let us
tell each one of them “be of good
cheer —rise. Hecalleth thee.”
A calm and unprejudiced ex
amination of the subject will
reveal much to make us expect
great things from this great
gathering of the clans.
Take byway of stimulating
information the fact that in 18'33
in forty-four American colleges
there were seventy thousand
young men, that thirty-eight
thousand of these were profes
sing Christians, that eleven
thousand of these Christian
young men had the Foreign field
in view and five thousand were
candidates for the gospel minis
try. Here is enough to awaken
some joy in the most lethargic
Christian soul at the signs of the
times —the coming of the sea
son when the Lord’s sons and
daughters shall prophecy and
his young men shall see visions.
The relation of the young
people to the church or of the
local union to the local church
is not one of insubordination.
The churches often have trouble
with their members. Sometimes
even with old members—and it
is not a wonderful thing if the
young blood of youth is some
times found impatient of re
straint. There are many church
es in the-South to-day who seem
almost powerless—and nerveless
in dealing with the problem how
to keep their young people away
from places where the sober
sense of Christian propriety is
strongly pursuaded they ought
not to go. Now these are ap
proaching the position of insub
ordination. They are likely to
say and sometimes they have
their fathers —perhaps deacons
in the church, to say for them—
there are reasonable indulgences
let the churches not interfere
with our private rights and priv
ileges. If you touch the worldly
amusements of our sons and
daughters, we will raise a divis
ion and split the church. At the
same time, the young men and
women in the Young People’s
Unions are singing and praying
and trying to glorify the Lord
in their bodies which are his.
As a rule, the young people who
are members of the Unions are
orderly and well behaved church
members, devoted to the interests
of their church and not bringing
any reproach upon her fair
name. It is therefore very un
just to these young folks that
the pastor and the older mem
bers —of the church (not to
speak of any of the younger
members who may not happen to
have been elected as officers of
the Union) to harbor any suspi
cion against the, Young People's
Unions.
A minister in a certain denom
ination sometime ago saw in the
Missionary Review a statement
about what had been given for
missions by one of the Young
Peoples Societies, whereupon,
he supposed that there was to
be a new denomination formed
and he rushed headlong into
print in holy horror of a figment
of his own imagination! All
that the young people had done
was to raise a large amount for
missions which they wished to
spend upon the foreign field
through existing missionary
agencies of his own denomina-
tion. It is a sad fact that many
excellent brethren habitually
maintain and somewhat- eagerly
display a pronounced suspicion
against the earnest purpose of
the young people and those who
seek to aid them. The groat
Apostle to the Gentilt's was once
just such an object of suspicion.
When Paul came to Jerusalem
he assayed to join himself to the
disciples, but they withdrew
from him, not believing that he
was a disciple. Barnabas the
noble son of consolation threw
himself in the breach— declared
to the brethren how Paul had
seen the Lord in the way and
thus opened up for him his great
missionary career. To those
brethren who are willing to allay
their really ill-founded suspic
ions and who would like to use a
great oporrtunity there is now
set before them an open door.
Let them enter in—take the
young people by the hand as
sure the older brethren- <>r those
who look askance —that there is
no latent heresy here and great
goodwill be done in the name of
the Lord. Receive us brethren,
we have wronged no man we
seek to gain no advantage over
you—it is satan we are fighting,
and let the Lord's people close
up the ranks against him. Yet
we must not be discouraged if we
encounter opposition. Every
movement in the churches, those
movements which are our joy
and crown to-day, have become
so, in spite of tierce and unre
lenting opposition. It is a la
mentable fact that instead of
turning all their vital force and
energy against the evil within
them, the churches have from
time to time sought to crush out
the good, which was struggling
for utterance within them. It
was so with the groat uprising
for Foreign missions. The tight
is on yet, and the evil influence,
the blighting frost of hardshell
ism is still the bane of many
churches and associations. If
Andrew Fuller were at work
among us to-day, he might easi
ly find occasion to turn down
lanes or streets or roads in our
towns and country places, to
weep unseen at the indifference
of the peopleof God to that great
command —“Go ye into all the
world and preach the gospel to
every creature.”
Our Sunday-school life exists
because it was vital enough not
to be strangled in the hands of its
friends. In almost every State
of the Union there was violent
opposition to the recognition and
the Scriptnralness of its aim
andmethodSL -What would have
been the effect upon the Bap
tist churches of the present,
if the opposition of a gen
eration ago to the Sunday-school
had triumphed ?
There is no institution to-day
of which the Baptists of the
South are prouder than of the
Southern Baptist Theological
Seminary. Yet the* ink is not
much more than dry upon count
less columns written against the
baneful tendencies of theological
education and here and there
may still be found a brother walk
ing about Zion—lamenting the
evil tendencies by an educated
ministry. The relation of the
Union to the church is that of a
dutiful and affectionate son to a
mother, where children desire to
reach out with life to extend
their activities and their influ
ence.
It is the relation to a father
who cannot do all the work in
his factory and he relies on his
sons to manage the enterprise in
some of its new features, confi
dent that they are loyal to his in
terests and thoroughly trust
worthy in their business habits.
It is the relation of a teacher
to his pupils who desires them to
put into practice the principles
he has taught them and even to
do some original work along lines
of investigation on which he has
started them.
It is a relation of a country to
her colonists who have gone out
to explore fresh fields, to subju
gate the forests and to extend
the dominion and the civiliza
tion of their native land.
The local church that fosters
a well managed Young People’s
Union, will in the near future be
a church of more than ordinary
intelligence. Her members will
be more than usually gratified to
give a reason for the faith that
is in them. They will be better
able successfully to contend for
the faith once for all delivered
to the saints; they will k«ow why
they are Baptists, and especially
if they pursue the reading
courses —a systematic daily read
ing of the Bible, and a weekly
article on some missionary theme
and some topic of sacred litera
ture, will they be thoroughly
furnished unto all good works.
Such a church will also have a
liberal membership. The
younger members will give be
cause occasion will arise for it
in their work and they will be
trained to it. Their missionary
knowledge being multiplied,
their zeal enhanced will they be
come liberal and systematic giv
ers. One cannot look over the
columns of a periodical like the
Missionary Review, without
stumbling on the most convincing
proofs that the great organiza
tions of young people are mar-
velously stimulating the liberal
ity of their membership and
greatly increasing the receipts
of the churches for missions.
A church that fosters the life
of the Young People’s Union,
wisely ordered, will be a soul
winning church. How many of
our church members are alive to
the imperative duty of leading
sinners to the cross ?
If in this organization we are
true to our purpose and our vows
we shall behold men and wo
men believing on Christ as in
the case of the woman of Sama
ria, because of the word which
wo speak unto them.
There is a great work to do.
Pray do not let us hear you idly
saying tons: “There is nothing
you can do ”

Sensible Advice.
A young man out of employ
ment went recently to an older
man asking advice. “I have,” said
the junior, “commanded a cer
tain salary. If I accept the place
which offers, itself at one third
my previous remuneration, will
I not let myself down —practical-
ly say that my value has de
creased? Is it not better to do
nothing than to do what is poor
ly paid?”
“John,” said the older man,
“my advice to a man needing
work and out of it always is to
take the first honest thing that
comes along. Hard or easy, ob
scure or conspicuous, ill paid or
well paid, take hold of the work
that offers, itself to your hand,
and do it with your might. You
are more likely to find work, if
at work somewhere, than if sit
ting at home doing nothing. In
my own day, I once could get no
employment except to help the
porter in a factory at a dollar a
day. I took hold of that; it was
all I could find. To-day I control
the factory and am owner of the
business.”
“That,’’said the youth, “was
nearly forty years ago. Things
in the business world were dif
ferent then.”
“Things arc never different,”
was the reply. “An energetic
man will gain nothing by sitting
still and waiting for the large
place. Let him take hold at once
of the small place and fill that
till he overflow it.”—lntelligen
