Newspaper Page TextSATURDAY, JUNK 10. 1916. T,V GRANDE EVENING OBSERVER PAGE NINE TWO BRANCHES BRING TEARS DRAMATIC SCENES ENACTED AT CONFERENCE. - Senior Bishops Bring Tears to Con tention of Methodists. "Perhaps the most supreme mom- ent of the recent general conference .. recently ended, was when the vote was about to be taken for the unfi- ntifinn nf t Vi q turn i.mm( twul.na n.P Methodism, which was presented to the quadrennial by Rev. John Goucher D. D., chairman of the committee on unification," explains Rev. Chas. A. Edwards, who , was present at that '. meeting in Saratoga Springs, N. Y. His description of the dramatic mom- all members of the two branches of that church, who have organizations La Grande. He went on to say, in explaining the incident: "The day for which two generations of Methodists have prayed' had come at last. When Doctor Goucher had concluded his address the general con ference demanded that the vote be taken at once without debate. What a vote it -was! No delegate, or visi tor, can ever forget the sight of the spontaneous outburst and instinctive uprising of that great hour not to the last man and woman Was it a wonder that some hearts that could not 'withstand the flood of joy and latitude, broke out with 'Praise God from who all Blessings Flow' while the tears ran down their faces for joy? How splendidly our Methodism arose to the sublime and supreme moment while a great pulsing anthem , of gratitude was ringing in every heart. "The climax came when Bishop Hendrix of the Methodist church, South, was escorted to the platform beside Bishop Cranston. Both are senior bishops of their respective churches. "The entire conference arose em masse and someone broke out again with the doxology. When quiet was restored, Bishop Hendrix arose and said: 'My brethern: I am going to take the hand of my venerable friend anfl ytnllon miA do on avniaBiiinn svf flint Mill l U 14 1 A VAJlbODlUU Vi. deep and abiding fraternal friendship which I know to exist between the two great American Methodisms and I pray that my venerable brother and myself may live jointly in the United General Conference of United Method ists in America.'

The conference arose in a body and handkerchiefs and flags were waved us a great salute while cheer after 'cheer was given with tremendous applause. Then a voice rang out in song 'Blest be the tio that binds our hearts in Christian love.' With Methodist feTVer the hymn rolled on to the end. When quiet was restored a most touching inci dent took place. Witness of Split Ihresent "The Reverend Thompson H. Lan- don D. D. of the Newark conference, asked for a moment of high privilege. It was granted. He was led to the platform, being blind and feeble with years, and to d how 62 years ago he was present at the general conference in New York City when these two Methodisms were divided and he now felt like Simeon, of old: 'Now, Lord, lettest thou Thy servant depart in peace, according to Thy word, for mine eyes have, seen Thy salvation. "While this servant of Jesus Christ stood before that great body the. only living representative present at the dividing, and now reuniting, he was given an ovation that- lasted several minutes.' Historic ChairComing If will be of interest in I Grande to know that the chair occupied dur ing the general conference by Rev. John Goucher D. D., chairman, of the committee on unification, is soon to be in La Grande having been secured by Rev. Edwards from the local com mittee at Saratoga Springs. Mr. Ed wards, also has a promise from Dr. Goucher to visit La Grande in the near future, to preach. At that time the chair will be on the platform of the Methodist Episcopal church here. After hearing Rev. Edwards' re cital of the widespread desire for uni fication of the two churches, one is safe in predicting that Ia Grande will not long have two branches of the same church in its midst. M. E.

My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord: in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up. 4. r or thou are not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee. 6. The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of in iquity. 6. Thou shalt destroy them that speak ieasing: the Lord will abhor the bloody and deceitful man. v 7. But as for me, I will come into thy house in the multitude of thy mercy: amd in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple. 8. Lead me, O Lord, m thy righte ousness, because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face. il. For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue. 10 Destroy thou them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out m the multituae oi their transgressions; for they have rebelled against thee. 11. But let a.l those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for loy, because thou defandest them: Let them also that love thyf name bo joyful in thee. 12 Fan thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous: with favour wilt thou com pass him as with a shield. ..p. To Save Little Lives The Federal Council of the Church es of Christ in America has received word from many of the churches that they desire to devote the offerings on Children's Sunday, Juno 11, to war ro licf funds to help save the children of Europe from disease, starvation and death. The Federal Council has therefore suggested that, so far as it does not interfere with other arrangements, the church and Sunday School offerings on Children's Sunday be devoted in whole or part to the suffcrfng children of all the warring nations. Dr. Chas. S. Macfar!and, general secretary of the federal council said in regard to this plan: "Children's Sunday comes in June. What more fitting disposition could the children of America make of their offering than to send it to. their little brothers and sisters of Armenia, Al bania, Belgium and Poland; . The plight of the innocent children in these and other lands should be de scribed to the children here. "Do you realize," he said, "that the children in these stricken lands are hungry and half naked and coM; that Ihe filthy rags in which they are clad are in that condition because their homes alnd means of cleanliness have ibeen destroyed; that this and the lack of food exposes them to disease and death; that children, pitifully thin little girls and boys, are dying by the thousand in hovels, beneath hedges, on mountainsides, huddled in the ruins of once beautiful homes. All their homes were beautiful once because they were homes. "No stronger foundation could be laid for peace nmoftig the maturing veneration in all lands than for Amer ican children to save the livesof the buffering children of all nations now. Do you think that a child would save another child's life now and plunge a bayonet into his heart ten years after ward? Do you think that the child whose life was saved would give him cause for war? "In the Caucasus the children ore now fewer than the grown people. In Po and thousands are hiding among ruins, in woods, or in hollows, subsist ing on roots and the bark of trees. Yet n few w-?cks and the sound of 'children's voices in Albnima will be hushod "orever. The typhus epidemic left twenty thousand orphan children in Servia. Forty cents a day will keep one of the survivors .alive in South ern France. Th? millions of lit.tlo boys nnd girls in the Sunday Sfhools of American could add many nays to tne lives of their little brothers and sist ers who have nothing to do with the war. and help to recreatj a happier world." The Fedc-nl Council suggests thnt the special children's offerings be sent throntrh anv of the reooenized relief organizations, one of which, the Fund for Starving Children of Mirope, 70 Fifth Avenue. Now York City, is de voted entirely to the relief of the children of the warring countries. Professional FRATERNAL ORDERS A. F. & A.M. La Grande Lodge No. 41, A. F. & A.
