Ministers of Ogden and Salt Lake at Their Best BISHOP EARL CRANSTON MAKES RESPONSE txceptiamfiy mil Able Mining Kelipis Sentiment is The following are the response, In part, made by tho guests of tlie Ladies Aid Society of tho Methodist church on tho occasion of the banquet given Saturday night at the church parlors to Bishop Karl Crau-stoof Portland. Oregon. By Herbert MacMillan, Toastmasn ter: Speeches is Which Deep Hives Expression. one moment that we are perfectly organized here, there are many other churches In this couuectUin who far excel us In this hue. 1 do not believe that any lack of organization is due to the members of Lie church but to tho ability of tlie pastor to perfect that organization. The Methodists of Ogden are familiar with the policy of tho church and when chilld they understand to what position they are elected and serve faithfully snd well. It cannot be said that all Methodists are familiar with the policy of the church. I once served in a newly organized church. Shortly after tho presiding cider arrived and 1 railed together the memlK'ra of the rhurch ami nominated my official board. One ot the memliers "of tho board arose and said, 1 have been elected to the lioard of stewards, am 1 exported to cixikT As quick as a flash tho elder replied. No sir. you arc to provido provisions so that the preacher's family will have something to cook." 1 am cure none of our Methodtsta iu Ogden would make a mistake of this kind. I believe It is ioaible tor Methodists to differ somewhat In generosity but Bishop Cranston, before you have completed your work In this city you will see that I have not exaggerated wheu I say there are no people In tho Methodist rbureh more liberal and geuernua than the Methodists of Ogden. But the Methodist eburrh of Ogden Is Catholic. It has a Catholic spirit, a spirit which reaches beyond tba walls of this sanctuary, which felfowshlps with every denomlnatkin, which baa for its olijert the evangcli-xatioof the wurld and the lifting up of fallen humanity. 1 do nut claim to have any special revelation from (iod, wa arp only n part of the great universal church of Jesua Christ. We realise perhaps more in this day than tn any other that we are brothers. It has not always been so; there was a time In the esrly history of the rhurch when ministers spent their Urns In condemning one another, whun people of one denomination belabored one another. 1 hnnk God that time haa passed and gone. Denominational lines are disappearing and finally Christ has touched our eyes snd we are brothers no mattor liy what namo we may he railed. 1 am sure the Ogden Methodists are broad enough to Mleve that our evangelical denominations have been raised up of God for the evangelisation of the world. I want to aay to my brothers uf other denominations that Ogden Methodtsta with the will Join with you and angel choir In singing the doxology over every soul born Into the kingdom whether lswn In through the Methodist or other church. Wo are all striving for tho same shore, taking different boats but bye and bye we will all sit down to a feast In the Father's kingdom. The Methodists of Ogden will work with every organisation. with our honored Mayor and with tho City Council for the Improvement of the moral condition of our Methodtsta throughout, the city. world have always been denouncing sin and exhorting the people to righteousness and in this sepse we do not differ from the Methodists of other places. We believe In patriotism and that we will bo most patriotic when we labor for the town or which we live, and village tir city-Ithe Methodist church of Ogden la 'ready to' Join helping hands with any organization, with any church that baa for Its object the improvement of the moral condition of our city. I am sure it Is a pleasure for me to meet with and to greet you In thla hour we have spent together."

Now, it is not my puriwse to bore any of yon with a speech. I have no right to do so. I am like Admiral Sigshee who had ndver made a speech in his life. He was about to take charge or the Texas. when he received an order to proceed at once to Chicago, .where he was to appear at a banquet in honor of the President and respond to a toast to the navy. He toiok the train In accordance' With Hie orders and arrived in Chicago Just In time in tie present at the banquet, where he told them he was there pursuant to orders for the purpose of responding to the toast in honor of the navy. 8o I am here tonight In response to an order of the jiastor to art as toastmaster.

Ogden Methodism: Response by Rev. Samuel Blair. of the M. E. Mr. Toastmaster, church of Ogden. ladies and gentlemen: We are certainly delighted this evening to have go many honored and respected ladles and gentlemen as our guests. We have looked forward to the pleasure of this occasion, as it Is not often that we have a real Uc Bishop with iim. I do not mean for a moment that any of our bishops' are to bo classed with those people who are spoken of In revelations as having a name are living and yet dead. We have found them to be very much alive on several occasions when we have gone to our annual eoiiforeucea to receive appointments at their hands. We have learned to love them. We hare with us tonight as an honored guest a rarely live Bishop. The parishes of these bishops are large: as said by John Wesley their parishes ar the whole world. It is said of Hugh Price Hughe that he hnd the ear of all England. Our hlsliops have the ear of the whole world.

It was said by those who occupied the adjoining room that they beard me paying compliments and glowing tributes to every lady from the Queen of Slieba to Carrie Nation. But ladles and gentlemen. a word In seriousness. We have come here to enjoy tbe hospitality of the good ladies uf this church, what la recognized and known as the Ladies' Aid Society. No one perhaps more than 1 appreciates tlie devotion and sacrifice and tbe difficulties these ladies have met. I would say to them, do not drsfialr, never up, hi the ahes of your efforts begive the fertilizing of your bous, and when woman will the thing will lie done. The greatest example of despair 1 ever heard ot was when a Methodist minister hoarded a train fur Chicago and saw arms tne aisle a weeping woman. He wished to help her and went to her and Id: Van I be: of any assistance to ou. my poor woman? No. sir. she replied, No one on earth can help me.1 Then bursting into renewed tears she o said, 'I am carrying to the city of the body of my dead husband to ie cremated, and do you know.' sks ontinued amid her sobs, this Is my fourth husband. And tho minister, unable tn smooth her, resumed hts seat, when he saw across the aisle another woman sobbing Just as bitterly, and leaning over, asked her If she, too, had lost a husband. No,' she replied, am an old maid. S3 years old, and have been trying all my life to get a husband, and it Just breaks my heart to know that that woman over there haa got husbands to burn.' 'There is another class of women of hom I would speak; it lathe Christ Ian mother in the homes of Ogden. Hhe may not lie able to take an active part In many duties In the rhun h, but the good woman sits at home and raisee Christian boys and ' girls, and Is happy tn the posaesaion of manly hoys and womanly girls, who are a blessing to the mother, to the church and to the world.

John was a stingy fellow, and put up a little stone and found that the words bia wife had given him would not all go on the stone, so he directed the engraver to put on the stone the words in Bill 'Let heri and then abbreviate the rest of the epitaph by using the first letters of each word R.

I have sometimes thought when ministers became enthused In their church work and people, and lose sight of the woman at home. 8am Jones says it is a brave woman who will marry a minister." (The speaker then told tbe story of the preacher on the steamer in the storm, who was assured by the captain of the safety or the ship as long as the sailors kept swearing, and upon investigating their actions, came hark and reported to hie wife in the words, "Thank God the sailors are still enn-in-la- w I trust God will bless c kc-- ; ( Over. 5000 pairs are included in the great Mid Winter Sale and were it not for the staid, substantial way this house dose business the quotations of such prices as we name would be nothing less than sensational, but being honset advertisers our ads are read and believed. selling prices. li.

A great writer once said of John Wesley, that Wesley possessed an intense appreciation for the value of time and of its sancity. So, he said, this explains much of Wesley's constant toil anil labor. I believe you have much of that willingness to be Master's service. found In tho I believe it has come upon you aa a rich heritage, you never seem to shrink from labor. I have heard and known no many things of Methodism that I feel like one my sen and if much that Is in your denomination were not true of ours 1 should become one myself. It Is only at your form of government that I look askant Yet churches should be better organized and do Uielr work in greater unity for that reason, so perhaps you should criticize us. If I were asked what was the great truth regarding your rhurch I should reply aa did the Sunday school scholar, who after the teacher had read the story of Jonah and the whale and was asued what great truth was brought out in the You can't story, replied: keep a good man down.1 Thla la true of (he Methodist chnrrh it la hard to keep good people down. God bless you and prosper you in your great work and may you leave some of it for the rest of us to do that we may gain some of the reward." The next toast. "Our Bishop." was responded to by Rev. D.

We want to remember that we are Methodists because of our methods. We as pastors should use every part of the machinery of Methodism to accomplish the' greatest good. I believe most of our future success depends on the position we are going to take this new year. We do not want to let tbe discouragements of the pest discourage us in the future. I believe God wants us to profit by past experiences md remember those things which have been helpful during the past year and forwhich have been get the things harmful. Every great reformation Is born out of an impulse to get closer to the lHiiple. T believe tt our place aa Epworth Leaguers to learn the art of leading people to Jesus Christ. The success of Methodism depends upon the spiritual life and power of the church. We ought to do all we can to make our young people as spiritual as we fore commencing his remarks the Toastmaster said. "What would woman lie without the "press. and what would the press be without woman? I am aura our Mayor fecla like the colored lireacher. who said. 'Brothers.

Mr. Glasmann then addressed the guests as follows Mr. Toastmaster, ladles and gentlemen, I want to thank those who are responsible for my presence here tonight 1 feel honored In having the opportunity of being with you. 1 appreciate the honor very much. This banquet looks a good deal like I have attended, except for the popping of the corks, and I do not miss that except that tbe sound is familiar and exjmeted on such occasions and every Gme I hear a noise I imagine It is the waiter getting ready. If our friend Underwood has gather-e- d all of hia information regarding the ladies from the hooks of our public library.
