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

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.'
"At this point the two senior bish-

ops clasped -hands. 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.

PSALM V. :
1. Give ear to my words, O Lord,
consider my meditation. V
2. Hearken unto the voice of my
cry my King, and my God: for unto
thee will I pray. 1
A. 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

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.

8ay we will both look and feel
clean, sweet and fresh
and avoid Illness.
Sanitary science has of late mado
ranid strides with results that are of
P untold blessing to humanity. Tho lat
est application of Its untiring research
Is the recommendation that It is as
necessary to attend to Internal sanita
tion of the drainage systora of the hu
man body as It Is to the drains of the
house.
Those of us who arO accustomed to
feel dull nnd heavy whon we arise,
splitting hcadnche, stuffy from a cold,
foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stom
ach, can, Instead, feci as fresh as a
daisy by opening tho sluices of the sys
tem each morning and flushing out the
wholo of the internal poisonous stag
nant matter.
Everyone, whether ailing, sick or
well, should, each morning before
breakfast, drink a gliiss of real hot
wator with a tenspoonful of llmestono
phosphate In It to wash from the stom
ach, liver and bowels tho previous
day's lmllgcstiblo wnsto, sour bilo and
poisonous toxins; thus cloanslng,
Bwoctonlng and purifying the entire
alinientnry canal before putting moro
food Into tho stomach. The action of
hot water and limestone phosphate on
an empty stomach Is wonderfully ln
rlgnratlng. It cleans out all the sour
fermentations, giiKes, wnsto and acidity
and frlvcs ope a splendid appetite for
breakfast. Wlillo you aro enjoying
your breakfast tho phosphatcd hot
water Is quietly extracting a largo vol
utr e of water from the blood and get
ting ready for a thorough Hushing of
ull the inside organs.
Tlio millions of peoplo who are both
