The narrowest preacher ever on the
earth was Jesus. As bread as the
world in his sympathy and his love.
yet as narrow as his own name and
person in condition of salvation.
There is no other way but himself an-
to God. No religion has the endorse-
ment of- the Scriptures. . Know all
theories and not know Christ Is to be
lost. To know Jesus as the Savior
from sin and know nothing of the
many theories and philosophies oi the
age is sure ground. because God's
ground is Jesus.

Too many people are like Moses in
thi king the success oi God's work de-
pen s upon human fitness for the
work. God can and does use the bum-
blest and weakest oi instruments to
accomplish the greatest work. To
realise that the sulllciency is oi God
is to not self where God can use you.
Many fail because not. willing to sim-
ply be God’s mouth-piece.

To be lips for his message is better
than to be message for his lips. But
the lips are necessary. God has sub-
Jected himself in the saving of souls
to human agency.

Only one thing can hinder God’s
work. Satan. all hell and all the forces
of evil cannot do so. Only his people
by shlrking and failing. to do their part
can hinder God's work.

At the WI school kindergarten

addressed the Small: Teacher's As.
sociatlon on the topic. "English."
The speaker contrasted the amount

raphy. etc. should he a lesson in Eng-
Ilsb. The recitation period belongs to
the pupil for expressing his ideas.
Allusion was made to the criticism
made by the great English inspector of
schools. Fitch. that he found that the
American teacher in the school room
talked much.

Many helpful suggestions were made
as to methods of drill in English in the
class-room. The need oi variety in pre-
sentation and of enthusiasm on the
part of the teacher was set forth em-
phaticslly.

After the address President Foote
called a business session of the. asso-
ciation to order. and brought before
it the advisability of a course of ice-
tures from the Extension of University
Teaching Annotation Course.
There will be a series oi sin lectures
during the winter under the joint man-
agement of the Norwalk ‘I‘cachers‘ As-
sociation and the Library Club. These
lectures will probably be held at the

Marion, November 29. mob—Gener-
al Hcthuen has defeated the whole
Boer force at Modder River.

London. November zs—A special
despatcb from Windsor says that Gen-
eral Methuen's desrstcb to the queen
after the battle of Modder River says:
"The battle was the bloodiest of the
century. The British shelled the en-
emy out of the trenches and then char-
ged. The result was terrible."

Inndon. November zD—The expected
great battle at bladder River has been
fought and General Brenden has add-
ed another victory to his achievements
of the past week. That the Boers dc-
fended their positions with all their
old-time gallantry is amply proved by
General Methucn's despatch. and it
will probably be further testified to
when the heavy Britinh casualties are
known.
Then there appears to be no doubt
that General Ilethuen has gained a
real advantage. though facts must be
awaited for confirmation. Presuma-
bly the burghev army was on the
south bank of the river. but whether
when the Boers retreated they crossed
the river northward or retired in an
easterly direction. into the Orange
Free State. remain unexplained. Pgsl-
bly the Boers had repaired the bridge.

main body escaped over the bridge.
the rear destroying the bridge behind
them. The British. however. appear
to have surmounted the difficulties of
crossing the river and to have seized
for themselves a position on the north
side of the stream.
' This sum-ens of the British clears
another of the roads to Kimberly. the
siege of which General (ironic must
have partially raised in order to give
battle to General Hethuen. But there
is little reason to doubt that the
Boers will again rally after a seeming»
ly crushing defeat.
