LANHAM & SONS, , ROME, GA. 245 Broad Street. { Corner 3rd Ave. ANOTHER VIEW. Popor Road nt tho Polk County Baptist Association by Rov. O, K. llondorson. Reports are of two kinds: Reports of figures nnd reports ot prinoiples, Statistics are left out of this pnper nnd some prinoiples of Missions are stated in It. A mission Is a commission of tho nature of a trust. Missionaries are commissioners who exeoute a mission. They are sent of the Lord and yet go by voluntary enterprise. Missions are founded in the redeemed instincts of Christ’s peo- plo and not barely in a dry command of marohlng orders. The Lord Jesus assuming it ns n nor mal and natural oonsequenoe that all Redeemed Ones having been resoued from sin will join in a Rescue Band to save others, directs them in the Great Commission howto prooood in their work. He says substantially, When you have gone, as I assume that you will go Into all the world, constrained by love to Me and love to souls; the levitating power of the Cross will lift men up to this spliero of nation; llrst, cause men to becomo dlBolples, learn ers; he only is n learner whom the Holy Spirit lina taught, and that ex cludes those who ennnot be taught; then baptize them, then toaoh them, train them to observe all things what soever I have oommnnded you in love. And, behold, I state a present fnot and a continuing truth, I am with you always, even now and until tho con summation of the ago missionary, re deeming aotivity. Christ has ever been in the movement of. missions. From the time that the primitive star dust began to awirl and turn and move on heaven’s pavements,Christ has been moving everything In the Interest of mankind; nothing moved until Ue moved It. When He himself moved, missions began to move. Missions embody His life and express His spirit. The evolution of missions is tile un folding of the uiind of Christ, tho re production of the Christ llfo in mil lions on a world-wide theater. The evolution will be exactly equal to tho involution. There is no more in fis sions than the Christ. There oan bo nothing less than Him in the multi form expression of missions in the millions who shall bear His image as the result of missionary influence made effective by Ills presence, nis life. By oonsequenoe, tile redeeming na tivity of Christ in tile world is the only true religion, the only true gospel. Though an Angel from Heaven preach any other Gospel, let him be aooursed. Beware how you speak and act. What can be reasoned up may be reasoned down. But the Christian life cannot be put down. The instinotsand move ments of redeemed humanity are irre sistible and invincible. They are the oonquerlng forces, for they are the powers natural to the Kingdom of God, resident within it, and charged with all thp purpose of God. They embody the energies of right and righteousness, and therefore the ener gies of God, the All-powerful. The impulse of missions is the transported power of God,imparted first to his peo ple, and next communicated through them to the nations. It is the divine shiver that flashes on the darkness to enlighten it, it is the divine thrill that vibrates along the line of human life, the divine impact that shades thrones, destroys dynasties, and bets up the Kingdom of Christ, tile life of right eousness in the soul and in the world. Tile results of missions reflect that glory wliioh Jesus was too meek to wear wiien he walked tills earth as the suffering servant of God, but which shall rightly and gloriously adorn His brow when the kingdom of this world shall have become the king dom of our Lord and his OhriBt. Tile work of missions is an age-long one. Let not your eyes grow dim, nor think that the scales hang doubtful in the heavens. All tilings shall be summed up and brought to a bead in Christ. Two thousand years of tile Gospel are past, and only about one-third of the race have been nominally redeemed, yet the eternal years are God’s. He outlasts the ages. They are perishing, but He abides. His presence, His life guarantee success. Christ shall return out of Egypt into his own lands when it shall be said that they who sought the young child’s life are dead. Mis sions shall come out of Egypt and live, having outlived all opposition. Please remember that missions are not founded in a theory, as to the condition of men or their prospeets, hut in the fact of Christ’s redeeming activity and in the instinctive activi ties of the new-born souls, the re deemed, regenerated and nptlvu people spf God, partaking of the divine im pure, and one with Him in life and aim. We deny the empire and the glory due to Christ when we do not aid in the expansion of Ilis kingdom mid in the establishment of tile reign of righteousness in the earth, the reign of Christ, the universal Lord. The fact that missions in pnrt have met with a olieck is no reason tlint we' should relax our efforts or withhold our gifts. Tile slaughtered martyrs discouraged no one in the past, Tlie thousands flung to the Horn mill tho flames hindered not the steady maroli of the Gospel. When the lands were most baptized in the blood of tlie saints sprang up tile more abundant harvest unto God. The Chinese Christians have proven that their religion is not a onmmer- clnl transaction. The Ghitinmnn’s motto is: “We eat rice and trust in Heaven.” But tlie Chinese Christians trusted God first, then nto their rice, and ill the midst of persecution loved not their own lives unto dentil. But, wlintever be the facts, we must go or send. Listen i The call is grenter tlinn n slogan ringing all along the border. It is not mi alarm, not n warcry, but an appeal, nn argument, a state ment of foots, nnd a directory for Christian Impulses and notion. All authority is given Me in Heaven nnd on earth, therefore wlion you have gone into all the world, since assuredly the impelling fervor of My spirit in you will carry you there, mnko disci ples, baptize, teach; I am with you till the conflict ends, until there be no more worlds to couquer. Look for none superior to Me; expect no fail ure. If the vision tarry, wait for it. It shall not tarry. Tho day makes makes linste. Tlie Gentile Age shall he consummated in my name. The native olive shnll be grafted bnok into its original stock. All Israel shall ho saved. The Jews shall be converted. Then shall begin, nnd only then, the world-wide movement of missions, Israel in the lead, the Gen tiles olosc beBide; Israel bearing ill her right hand the covenants nnd the promises, and with her left embracing tlie Gentile world; the Gentiles with their right grasping the promises mnde to the fntliers that In thy seed nil tho families of tills earth shnll bo blessed, shall bear in their, left tlie wenltli of the world, the riolies of the Gentiles, nnd offer them to Christ, while both Jew and Gentile, keeping step with enoli nml witli the will of God, shnll Bound tlie drumbeat of missions heard round the world, and innrolito that oonque^t of the peoples prophesied of when it was said that a nation shnll be born in n day. Then shall tho sign of the Son of Mail ap pear. The groaning earth shall be glnd. The music of the redeemed hu manity shall set -in. The throne of God shall vibrate in unison, nnd heaven nnd earth shall rejoice to gether. For the marriage of the Lamb has come; enter in. Resolved, That the churches divide their membership into hands of ten or more, and put one over enoli of these bands to collect from them mission moneys nnd report to the churolies as often ns practicable.

Miss Mnrthn, tho attractive daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. R. A. Adams, entertained tho Thursday Afternoon Club most delightfully last week. Besides serving delicious refresh ments, the fair hostess had Iter guests (ill in tho blanks in tlie fol lowing story with the titles of books,. Miss Gussie Houseal proving the prlzo-wlnner:— The social topic of interest in “Vanity Fair” tills week was a wedding attended by the nobility. Tlie affair wns the cul mination of a romance which began while “The “Princess of Thule" beautiful representative of tlie reigning house, wuS on a visit to Scotland. O110 morning, while gazing through “A Window in Thrums” she beheld approaching the handsome figure of “Tlie “Black Douglas” astride Ilis spirited charger, , “Black Beauty.” As lie gazed into “Her Beaming Eyes” which shone like twin violets dipped in dew, from beneath tlie shadow of “Lilac Sunbonnet” she wore, ills heart surrendered to her charms, nnd lie vowed tlint she alone should be “The [Bride of Lninmerinoor." Frequent meetings followed, und the old, old story wns told anew, “Beside Tlie Bonnie Brier Bush” Mnny happy hours were spent together, the days slipped by in a veritable “Midsummer Night's Dream.” nnd they seemed to dwell in a fair “Utopia.” Being somewhnt of n flirt, nt the same time she encourageil “A Gentlemhn of Fashion” whose whole air marked him a Paris ian Courtier, nnd “The lion. Peter Sterling" a prominent New York politician, botli suitors for tier band, so it bid fair to become "A • Triple Entanglement," but the dauntless Soot toon routed “The Rivals,".* Willie to them It seemed like “Paradise Lost” to IIIm it was "Paradise Regained." Tlie wedding, inst week, was a brilliant occasion. Behind a screen of pnlins, “The Choir Invisible” sang tlie wedding maroli from Lohen grin. The color solieme wns yellow nnd green, and the bride’s “Eight Cousins” who were her bridemnids, carried bou quets of “The- Jessamine.” and tlie groomsmen wore in their but tonholes that iiniquo flower, “The Y’ellow Aster,” Tlie britle came in with her fattier, a man whose courtliness suggested the dnys "When Knighthood wns in Flower.” Her gown, wliioh wns puroliased of ■The Merchant of Venice,’’ was of “Silk Attire” trimmed with rare old “Point Lace and Diamonds.” Her "Cinderella” like feet were clad in jewelled slippers. The page who bore her trnin was “Little Lord Fauntleroy” grandson of tlie Earl of Bertnoourt. Tlie ceremony which pronouneed them “Mail and Wife” wns performed by “The Little Minister.” of Scotland. Being “A Lady of Quality” the bride drove from ohuroh'in a car riage emblazoned with “The Lion and Unicorn” the coat of arms of England. As to presents they had , “A Bag of Diamonds,” but owing to “Hard Times” not a few were puroliased from “Tile Old Curiosity Shop.” It wns understood that the couple would go on “A Wedding Journey,” but wishing to keep their destination Becret, tiicl groom, when asked by a friend, “Quo Vadis" laughingly replied, “To‘The Land of the Skies” but in reality they went to a seaport town, and at twelve p. in. took passage on “Ships that Puss in the Night” that they might wander “Far From tlie Madding Crowd.” When tlie village gossips met at five o’clock tea, tlie next afternoon, it was whispered “Over the Teacups” that'tile groom’s income was “Ten Thousand a Year” ami they wisely decided "All’s Well that Ends Well."
