Merrill, general Sunday school superintendent for Ontario and Que bec, delivered a fine address on the relation of the Baptist Young Peo ples' Union to Sunday school work. He defined the Sunday school as the church at work with its youth, shap ing character for all eternity. Our young people, he said, should thor oughly appreciate the importance of this work, that they may relate them selves to It most helpfully, for their society Is not a self-centered organ ization, but is altrulstio In Its aim. The motto of the society, "Culture for Service," requires unselfish ministry, a ministry finding splendid opportun ity for expression In Sunday school work. Scope or the Union's Work. " The Union Is essentially a training school for service, and must some ' times part with its members, that they may fill important positions in other departments of church life. The Sun day school worker is an artist in character, and must be a man of spiritual vision and power. Where can we turn for such a worker with .surer promise than to the society wnicn nas ror its avowed object yie Increased spirituality of Its members? Where shall we turn for the executive ability needed In Sunday school work with surer hope than to the society, ' which Is constantly thorough in its devotional and business meetings train ; lng leaders? The Sunday school is the Bible school for the church. Teachers need a broad, comprehensive working knowledge of the Bible, a knowledge gained in the Bible readers' classes of the B. Y. P. U. Sunday school teachers need an appreciation of the principles for which the de nomination stands. Through the sacred literature course of the B. Y. P. U.. Baptist youngr people have re ceived a magnificent course In de nominational history and polity. Sunday schools should give missionary Instruction. Through the conquest mis sion Is received the requisite knowledge for giving such instruction. The Baptist Union Is as intimately related to the Sunday school as the college and uni versity Is to the busy, throbbing life of the world. A solo by E. C. Sellers followed this address and was much enjoyed. Mr. Sellers afterward responded to an en aore. Other Able Addresses. Rev. 0. C. S. Wallace, D. D.. of Lowell. Mass.. gave a masterly address on "The task of the pastorate.' The pastor must be a teacher, student and . preacher, he Bald, but above all he should be a good t Shepherd, like the shepherd of the ' twenty-third Psalm. His spirit Is de scribed in the tenth chapter of John. He Is not to be the pastor of one class, but of every class. His task Is made harder In these days by a seemingly lessening sense of the supernatural by a partial dethronement of the Bible, and by the supplanting of the old Puritan Ideal b'y one less pure, less honest and less rev ' erent, . an ideal which recognized the ex- jeeding sinfulness of Bin. There are three qualifications which a preacher , should have a conviction that men must ' be Teconclled to God, an Irreproachable ' character and an unquestioning belief in 1 Jesus Christ as the revealer of God and the Savior from sin. The address closed with a touching appeal to young men to give their lives to the work of the : Christian ministry. ' Dr. W. H. Main, of Hartford, Conn.. I led a most spiritual devotional service during the closing hour of the afternoon, emphasizing three facts, the love of Christ, the atonement and the efficiency of consecrated Christian service. "Four '. things." said the speaker, "go to make up a true Christian life complete con- : secration. complete loyalty, complete change of service, complete victory."

D. pastor, gave a very delightful reception to about 1560 dele gates at the beautiful Masonic Temple, where the church worships.

ALBANY, Or., July 4.-(SDee!al.)-No definite plan has yet been selected where by the Oregon delegates to the National Republican convention will be chosen, but they will probably be elected at a convention to be called by the Repub lican state central committee. George A. Westgate, chairman of the committer said today that the matter had been the" subject of considerable recent corre spondence and discussion among the members of the committee and that the plans were as yet embryonic. Opinion among the members of the committee, however, Is said to be in favor of a state convention to name dele gates to the National convention and also to nominate Presidential electors. Dele gates to this state convention would be chosen on a basis of representation simi lar to the legislative apportionment, but how to choose the delegates from the different sections of the state Is the dif ficult question. It is the desire of tho committeemen to observe the spirit of the primary law, but it is also desired to have a convenient method of procedure. Regarding this matter, State Chairman Westgate said today: "In my opinion, delegates to the Na tional Republican convention should be chosen through a convention called at the proper time by the state central com mittee. The county apportionment e delegates to such convention would be on the usual legislative basis. The law making no direct provision as to details In ,thls matter,, some plan, not yet worked out, must be had, quite in the spirit of the primary law, to the end that the important work' shall be fully repre sentative of the Republican voters of Oregon."

Dr. Brown saw no reason why the case should be treated for charity, and advised the sis ters at the hospital to hold the woman for a day or two. Later the man paid $10 on account, and gave an order on the mill where he is employed for the bal ance, and the woman was discharged.

CUSHMAN ORATOR OF THE DAY Washington Congressman Delivers Address at Vancouver. . VANCOUVER, Wash., July 4. (Spe cial.) A military parade marked the celebration here today. The literary exercises were held in the City Park, Mayor J. R. Harvey presiding, and Hon. Francis W. Cushman delivering the oration. Following are epigrams from the ad dress by Congressman Francis W. Cush man: We, as a Nation, owe much to the Amer ican pioneer. Our land was bought with his blood, and our civilization was found ed on hit bonea. As a specimen of patrlotlo penmanship the Declaration of Independence has never been equaled. The first American blood wu shjed at Lexington, and It was a costly sacrifice. But, save and excepting the blood that was shed on Calvary, none other has ever produced such stupendous results for the children of men. The American Revolution taught the world that In the hearts of the Just, cause counts for more than cannon; and that right means more than regiments. That war taught the world that the heights of courage to which a man will rlee when he stands with his home and his freedom behind him, and naught but des potism and the invader before, cannot be .calculated by any instrument which the hand of man has devised for measuring the heights and sounding the depths. Two things are essential In all endur ing human government: First, the gov ernment should be good enough for tha people; second, and equally Important, the people should be good enough for the gov ernment. True patriotism doesn't consist in making a loud noise with your mouth once a year on the Fourth of July, and then letting the country and its Institutions go to the dogs during the remaining 864 days of the year. If you are indifferent to the lawless de struction of other people's property today, other people are likely to be Indifferent to the lawless destruction of your life to morrow. What we chiefly need In this Nation to day Is a little more aand. Cowardice is the atmosphere on which lawlessness thrives. This Government of ours is very much like a gigantic graphophone. If what ws hear coming out of the big end of the horn don't suit ue. we don't have to smash the machine, or let anybody else smash It. All we have to do is to change the tune we sing Into the machine, and the proper governmental music will come out of the other end. , . This Nation, which American valor pre served from foreign tyranny, shall not be destroyed by home-made despotism. Tell me, oh, my countrymen you who are restless and dissatisfied to what portion of the known earth will you go to better your condition or enlarge the opportunities of your children?
