It was a time selected by the Son of God, The Apostles, and the first Christians for their most earnest ap peal to God for help to surmount mose serious difficulties.

Z. Tedrow. A very enjoyable watch party was held at the school house Saturday evening, givea by the young peoples' Moses and Elijah. Impulsive Peter proposed to arrange permanent abodes for the three, but a voice from God in heaven spoiled Peter's notion by calling his attention to the real pur pose of this meeting for Moses and Elijah to turn over their authority to God's Son. 'This is my beloved son, hear ye him.' The third occasion was in the gar den of Gethsemine where our Saviour poured out his soul at midnight plead ing: for a way to save humanity from their sin. The Apostles and first . Christians followed the ascention with ten days of such praying. The martyrdom of the first one of the Apostles to die James occurieJ and Peter at the same time in prison brought the church to their knees at midnight interceding for Peter's re lease. Another occasion was when Paul and Silas were in prison, their feet fast in the stocks at midnight they prayed. In the latter portion 01 Acts4 is recorded such a prayer of the early church. .'And when they had prayed' .'They spake the Word of the Lord with boldness.' ..'Were of one heart and one soul' The Lord's prayer for the unity of his people answered. Gave witness of the Lord's resur rection'; great favor was theirs and, distribution was made according as any had need.' ' Let us close the minutes of the old and enter the momejits of the new year emulating such example. Surely in no more fitting way could professed followers of the Son of God enter such a time of opportunity." At five minutes before midnight the congregation went to their knees in prayer. When they 'arose from that attitude of prayer we were In a new year in a spirit of Christ with sub stantial outlook on a most prosperous year in the Lord's work. New Year's morning at 11 Dr. Maxey preached on tho word "First" from the text: "First they gave their own selves to tho Lord." In the eve ning his text was "The Hour Is Come." Everyone present nt each service was deeply impressed with the fitness and power of these discourses. Dr. Maxey will preach next Lord's Day, Jan. 8, at 11 a. m. on the prac-; ticnl subject: "We are able. Let us do it at Once." The evening subject: "Helping Peter Find a Job."
