LESS THAnThREB WEEKS
How Young People May Work
Their Way "Onward
and Upwnrd.'v'
I
Le.s tlmii three weeks tiro now left
befom the openlnjr diiy ot tho thlid
Kducatloniil Content conducted by The
Tribune. The two former contests nrc
probably finite well remembered by
most or Tlie Tribune's leaders, who
know how successful they wore, and
how every uionilsc that was made to
the participants was rigidly adhered
to. This year's contest Is over three
times ns large In money valuation and
over four times greater as far as the
number of scholarships aio concerned
us tho contest of any previous year.
It Is tho expectation that the young
people of fc'crnnton and vicinity will real
ize the great opportunities that lie open
before them for the effort of a single
summer's work. If any one of them en
deavored to work their way through
any of these educational Institutions
(an so many ambitious young people
do) It would mean several years of toll
and self-denial to achieve the same Je
suits as are practically given to them
,thiotigh these contest1. It Is true that
we ask them 'to earn their way through
those contests, but this method means
only a. few months of work, right at
home, amid friends; and the rewards
are just us sure to those who win their
way by steady, plucky work In this
way as If they paid cash in advance
for the same privileges at the school
they cam the right to attend.
Any one may enter the contest at any
time. The latest to do so is:

Zborday, of Huzleton, a missionary
among the Hungarians, told of his ex
periences among thuit people. Rev. P.
L. Jones, D. D., ot Philadelphia, spoke

Afternoon Session.
Tho afternoon session, in the hand
som; new First Baptist church, South
Main avenue, began snortly after 2.30
o'clock, witli an organ voluntary by
Mrs. 1!. G. Beddoe. After the singing
of the hymn, "The Morning Light Is
Breaking," the chairman, Dr. B. Cl.
Beddoe intioduced Rev. Morgan J.
Watkins, of Hallstead, who led the de
votional exercises.
Among the distinguished clergymen
present were: Rev. H. G. Weston, D.
V., LL. D., president of t'ro.ier Theo
logical seminary; Rev. H. C. Mabie,
D. ., ot Boston, Mass.; Rev. R. G.
Seymour, D. D., of Philadelphia; Rev.
A. J. Rowland, D. D of Philadelphia;
Rev. 15. D. Thomas, 13. D or Toronto;
Miss Mary Melby, of Philadelphia.
The local clergymen present were:
Rev. Williams, of Peckville; Rev.
Spalding, of Forest City; Rev. Whalen,
of Caibondale; Rev. Watkins, of Hall
stead; Rev. Smith, of Factoiyville;
Ro. Thompson, of Dalton; Rev. Cole,

Miss Maiy Melby, of Philadelphia,
was the first speaker of the afternoon.
She pleaded the, cause of the Wo
men's Baptist Home Mission Fociety.
She speaks with a slight Swedish ac
cent, and she told ot the woik that is
being done by the society among her
people by the introduction of American
methods of Christianizing tho ivoild.
Her address was listened to with
marked attention, '
She told also of the work that Is
being done among the immigrants at
the detention pleis In New York,
where so many foreigners land eveiy
day. The woik Is not confined to any
particular nationality, but reaches all
classes of people who come to this
country. Following the address, Miss
Ruth Beddoe sang a solo In a very ac
ceptable manner.
Principles of Belief.
Rev, II. G. Weston, president of Cio
xier seminary, delivered a heart to
heart address on the "Fundamental
Principles of Baptist Belief." Ho was
Introduced by Chairman Beddoe as the
Nestor of tho Baptist preachers in the
United States. His first suggestion
was the singing by the congregation
of this stanza:
All lull tlio power t .Jn-u-,' junie,
Lot unael-t inoitiale fill,
tiling f oi IU tl.e io.,il diailiin,
ml cio'mi lllm Lord of all.
Dr. Weston suld that ho never ex
pected to hiiva the pnvtlego of speak
ing to the association again, owing to
his advanced age, and asked nil to
pray wllh him that the message he
brought to them would be helpful to
thum. Dining his address ho said:
"I llko tho llicniQ which has been as
signed to me, as it Is Intended to de
signate those characters which are
characteristic! of the Baptists as a de
nomination," In defining the Baptist,
ho said; "It Is a man who has como
into personal relationship with Christ,
with no Intermediary, nnd holds that
ralatlon to Christ as his great central
thought.
"There Is only ono standard for
everything, and that Is tho Bible
standard, which upplles to living,
preaching and everything1 else, But
ono must have a clear and consistent
line of thought and action with that
Idea. You will And this principle
enunciated In the twenty-third chap
ter of Muthow, Another standard is
to obey tho law, and bow to tho In
evitable. , Those are Baptist princi
ples. "Personal experience Is another
ptaniiuid principle. God has put you
on the Judicial bench to Ueclde what
to do, and to accept Him Is tho only
way, for He Is the way, tho truth und
the light, The personal und voluntary
relation to Christ Is the only way to
salvation, as no set of men havo a
light to inako a creed and say that
any man shall ascend to It.
"God Is love, mercy, forgiveness,
truth, and God's truth should be
valued as the most precious thing of
all."
THE MEETINGS
iti:v. r.. v.. lmiivkhs , n ot xr.w vouk.
The speaker also defined his own per
sonul views on the subject, and re
lated many interesting Incidents In his
life. The address was a great Inspira
tion to all who heard it.
Dr. Seymour's Talk.
At the eloje or Dr. Weston's address
Dr. H. C. Mabie, or Boston, was called
upon to lead in prayer, and he did so
in a fervent manner. Rev. R. . Sey
mour, D. D of Philadelphia, mission
ary secretary of the Ameilcan Baptist
Publication society, was the last speak
er of the afternoon. His subject was
"Three Precious Things."
He defined them as "God's woid,"
"the Christian home," and "the Chris
tian child." The most precious thing
in all the world, ho said, is the word of
God. He has put his word llrst In this
wot Id of ouis and has kept it first
above everything else. If you want to
win souls to Christ you must believe in
the faith and cower ot God.
The second precious thing is the
home. Not the building, with Us in
ternal llttlngs, but the home circle,
where love, affection and a Christian
atmosphere exist. No honc! is true un
less Christ Is the center of it, and the
spirit of Chi 1st rules in it. and the
chinch is not true to the Master un
less it goes out and reaches every home
within its leueh with tho Gospel of
Jesus Christ.
Tho thiid piecious tljing i& tlio child
in the home. Ho advised mothers to
give up many things and pay more at
tention to tho lightful brlngiiir; up and
salvation or their children, to lead
t'hiisli.m lives and .walk licjht bf-foio
God. The obligation is upon tho Cluis
tliin church to go out and qather the
children in and tench them the word of
God.
Dr. Seymour told or tho woii. that is
being done by the Publication society
in various fields, and what an Sniuorr
ant field theie is lor the tmnslation of
God's word into the dlftcicnt lnn
guuues. Evening Session.
When the services in the First Welsh
Baptist church, Noith Main avenue,
began last evening there was an audi
ence present that filled every seat, and
chairs had to be placed In the aisles to
accommodate the late-coiueis.
Mrs. D. B. Thomas played an organ
voluntary, and in the absence of Hon.
John T. Williams, who was expected to
preside, Edward K. Thomas acted as
chairman. The song service was led by
Prof, W. AV. Evans, the church choris
ter. Rev. Thomas do Gruchy, D. D.,
pastor of the Jackson Street Baptist
church, read tho Scripture lesson, and
Rev. E. K. Thomas, of Montrose,
offered prayer. The audience joined tho
choir in the icndltlon of several familiar
Welsh hymns, which wero sung with
much fervor,
The first addtess was delivered by
Rev. A. J. Rowland, D. D of the Bap
tist Publication society, Philadelphia.
His subject was "Literature and Life,"
and It proved to be ono of the best yet
given during the conference sessions.
Tho question has been debated at great
length, ho said, as to whether the pul
pit or the press exeits the most Influ
ence for good. The pulpit orator has
the .sympathetic) voice, tho speaking
eye and tho commanding gesture, and
wields a powerful influence, in the
church and community in which ho
preaches, while tho influence of tho
press Is more pervasive, and presents
a truth a llttlo more clearly than is
possible by extemporaneous speech.
Aside from tho niguments advanced
for either side, we must admit that
both nro mighty agents for good or evil.
Tho power of the spoken, written or
printed word put together are essen
tially good, but tho closer wo cling to
the word of God, the surer wo aio of
our giound, Our Christian llfo depends
very largely on our i elation to the
Bible. Wo need to glvo ourselves up to
tho constant and unremitting study of
God's word.
Must Go Hand in Hand,
Wc need not deprecate tho pulpit
orator, for tho voice, tho book, the pul
pit and press must go hund In hand It
best results will be secured. The stable
community Is that which reads books
worth reading. No homo or commun
ity can be made happy by reading sen
sational literature. Wo should read
books worthy tho time bestowed upon
them. Society Is s.wayed because 'men
and women aio not reading as they
ought to,
Tho speaker pointed out lo the par
ent tho necessity of ascertaining, what
their boys and gills nro muling, and
said many of tliein Imvo become es
tranged from homo and weio led Into
sin through tho bad books they read.
It Is necessary to displace the evil with
good leading matter.
Every church ought to Imvo a library
und the pastor ought to know what his
peoplo aro reading. The American Bap
tist Publication society, he said, Is try
ing to use tho power of tlio press to
glvo people pure lltciature, for truth,
holiness and God. They ure sending
out ono thousand Bibles every day In
the year, besides the countless other
books, papers and pamphlets issued by
them for the uplifting of humanity.
Rcy, B. D. Thomas, D. D., of Toronto,
Canada, was right nt home with his
subject on "The Welshmnn ns n Factor
in American History," and gave a, most
mngnlflccnt and scholarly address.
During the course ot his remarks, he
said!

Value of a People.
The value of n people to the community cr
nation with which they become identified must be
measured by their Intellectual and moral quali
ties, They cannot bcrouia, inoia nor greater
than their nsi;refralcd vlttuea Inherent or nc
qulicd. The potency of their Influence will of
iieccalty be determined by tho volume ot lliclr
manhood. There are Instances in which "one
man may chac a thousand, and two put ten
thousand to fllitht." lii peaklnR of Welshmen
as factors in American hlttoiy, I shall proceed
upon tho presumption that the unit vf abic Is
not mimbeis, nor Intellectual brilliancy, nor eel
cittlflu InslRht, nor aught else that dazzles the
ImiRinatlon of Hie world. In Iheso icspects the
Welsh people cannot bo Mid to have evlled,
llio contilbutlon they have made to the life end
influence of this great republic has been for the
moit part of another, but by no ineiiis lt
valuable ort. They biotight Into the life of thh
land In Its fonnitlic period a quality of beins
tint had been disciplined In vlitue that hid
been nurtured in tho lote of llboity nnd ila;ht
councss that had a supremo rcvcienco for God
that had nn intelligent apprehension of the teach
ing of the Illlilc that had an ardent real for ell
tlut tended to tho moral, Intellecual and fplr
itual well-being; of the race. They became, wher
ever they chanced to take up their abode, cen
ters of influence that acted with a benctleent and
healthful potency upon the foimatltc elements
that weie tl.en detciminliig the complexion of
the nation's life. They did not flume a.s prom
inently as the lepicscntathcs of other lands in
political, racial, or material enterprise, but tliey
gave to the country of their adoption inipuls.-s
toward higher litintr and moial and spiritual at
tainment which it would be altogether impossi
ble to estimate.
We judge of (he quality of the stream by the
fountain fiom which It emanates. The tree
bloscnni as the configurations at the tools tic
tennine. Tho influence of l-eiedity, and i-ocial
nnd family environment go vciy far to maik
the commanding fc.ituios of chaiacter. Xelther
taints nor leprobates are pioduced as photo
graphs by instantaneous process. Wales was a
good place to be bom In when this lajid v.as
joung. The life was implc nnd the contllMons,
although in many respects depleting1, were favor
able to the production of men and women of
rugged ph.vslques of emotional rcn-ibllltles ind
of puie morals, fireat religious tcvlvals had sn-ept
the land, and thee children of the hills who
tiom the dais of the Druids had not been with
out a keen sense of the Eternal and Unseen, wero
caserly ic-ponsite to their influence. Tiiey were
ignoiant of the movements and agitations of the
outside woild. Commeice, politics, lltciature and
science, scarcely raised a ripple ou the placid
watcis of their lives. Tlie picaclier of righteous-ne.-s
and the clilins of leligion commanded their
thoughts nnd aflcctlon, and in course of time
their coinpletest tcveience. As tho lethal influ
ences spread, the whole ration became religious,
Little Zoais, and Ilethels, und Ubenezci were
upre.ircd in eveiy nook and coirer of the laud.
'Hie study of tho Sciipliues bec.iino their e'e

pirations in the House of God and at. the lips
of the prophets of tho .Most liijh, They bectme

"Last winter I had blood poisoning
caused from a cut on my finger. This
formed an abscess under my arm, and
I was in tho hospital for three weeks.
At times I felt as though I was -Rolng
out of my head. When I touched the
end of my spine, I felt the shock in my
head at once. My memory was poor,
and I sometimes forgot my neighbors'
names. Sometimes I had pains in my
left side just below my heart, and' a
presentiment of evil was continually
with me. Palne's Celery Compound
has given me a new lease of life, and I
hope others will try it."
