New Minister to Take Up His
Work Today.
Rev. Harold II. Griffin, Formerly of

achieved splendid results in reli

minister of the First Christian Church
of this city, will assume his new du
ties today.

many friends and in Irvlngton where

munity. Several of the ministers of other

ciation of Dr. Marcotte and have de
clared that he has stood for the best
in all church efforts, as a speaker,
pastor and leader.
In many of the churches of the city
the pastors who have been away for
vacations have returned and will be

church is trying to get him to leave
here. Rev. J. Allen Leas, of the Eng
lish Lutheran Church, has been East

favorable impression and was asked

world. Here is a man who has met
criticism, misfortune, defeat, and yet he
carries a brave heart and a serene
countenance. There are hidden springs
in that life of which the world has no
knowledge. I once saw the bed of a
river that had been bared by engi
neering works. It was bare for hun
dreds of yards, and here and there
along that river Wed tiny springs were
still sending forth their contributions.
So a Christian ought to be like a river
with hidden sources of supply.
Christian Gains ' Power.
A river grows as it flows; ehould it
become stagnant, it would soon cease
to be a river, resolving itself into a se
ries of miasmatic pools sending fortn
disease instead of health. Just so a
Christian gains power and larger pro
portions by increasing activity in the
line of progress. But there are multi
tudes of Christians who seem to be
standing still, marking time and get
ting nowhere. And by and by retro
gression sets in and they lose the in
spiration of genuine religion: they neg
lect their covenants and soon they are
becoming stagnant in spiritual life and
faith dies.
Again, a river often has a tortuous
course, bends back upon itself, resting
in quiet pools, then breaking over huge
boulders in roaring rapids, or over
precipices in thunderous cataracts. But
ever and always moving towards the
goal. In this tumultuous and tortu
ous movement the process of aeration

Connie Is Chaniced Often.
Jehovah said to Israel, "I will turn
my hand upon thee and will thoroughly
purge away all thy dross and will take
away all thy sin." This is God's smelt
ing process and Job was passing
through it when he cried out: "When
he hath tried me I shall come forth
as gold."
Again, I find that a river frequently
changes its course. I remember a fa
vorite fishing stream which made a
wide detour of an eighth of a. milo
with good haunts for the trout in the
"big bend." One Spring when I came
to the place the big bend was practi
cally dry; and a short stretch of rapid
waters marked the new channel. It
was a better course for the river. A
river Christian will do likewise He
will see Bible truths from a new angle
of vision and change the channel of
theologic thought. He will get new
conceptions of duty and of service and
will change the channel of his activity;
all of which means growth and prog
ress. There are too many fossils in some
of our seminaries and in a good many
of our churches. There was a tim

when theology was thought to be
"fixed science" In the sense that no
changes should be made in the views
and conclusions of the fathers. But
this spirit made China a stagnant na
tion and now the stream of thought
In China is more active and is opening
new channels. So. too. the stream of
theologic thought is opening new chan
nels of power and efficiency. Don't be
a religious fossil be a river Christian.
Christian Needs No Label.
Tou will notice that a river gives
life and beauty to its Immediate en
vironment. This is not because of ef
fort on the part of the river, but life
and beauty are absorbed by all that
touches the stream. How like a river
Christian! He will be felt in kindly,
uplifting, inspiriting influence wher
ever he goes. He will need no label.
But people will be glad to know and to
come in touch with him. This is what
Peter said: "Be a blessing, for here
unto were ye called, that ye should
inherit a blessing."
Again, a river usually reaches a stage
of quiet and depth at the end of its
course. Just before losing itself In the
ocean. Tou cross the Columbia on the
ferry and notice the power and rush of
the current. But go to Astoria and see
the broad expansion of this same river.
How quiet is Its movement. Its depth
will carry the greatest vessel and In
that depth and poise of movement thJ
majestic river becomes lost in tue
mighty ocean beyond the bar. A river
Christian of mature years will reach
a depth of experience and a breadth of

CHRISTIAN YOGA ASSOCIATION.
The Christian Yoga Association will meet
Sunday evening at 8 o'clock In room A,
Central Library. All members are expected
knowledge that will bring great peace
and poise of life as that soul crosses
the bar and glides Joyously out upon
the vast ocean of eternity to lose it
self in the fathomless love of the in
finite God.
Rivers have great prominence In
Bible development. The human race
began its career in a garden. It will
consummate that career in a great city.
Of the garden it is written: "A river
went out of Eden to water the gar
den." Picture to yourselves the par
ents of our race enjoying the beauty
and the life that abounded along the
shores of that first river and in per
sonal fellowship with Jehovah, who
walked with them in the cool of the
day. Then catch a vision of that sec
ond river.
Symbol of Immortality Found.
John saw in his Patmos vision "a
river of water of life bright as crys
tal, proceeding out oof the throne of
God.' This is the river Christian's
goal. The tree of life, symbol of im
mortality, was lost on the banks of the
river in Eden. It is regained upon the
bank of this river in John's vision
and the leaves of that tree are for the
healing of the nations. On the bank
of that river all the ills, all the heart
aches of life will be healed. All the
struggles, the losses, the defeats of
life will be fully compensated for.
Listen! "To him that overcometb will
I give to eat of the tree of life which
is in the paradise of God."
A river Christian will overcome and
receive th reward-
to be present and any others who are Inter
ested will be cordially welcomed.
