| gk 1 | BIBLE GONFERENCE OPENS THIRD ANNUAL SESSION Continued from First Page chap. 2, verse 19, “Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed?” Dr. Pratt spoke with intense earnestness and fired his attentive audience with the great truths he presented. Dr. Pratt uses the con- versational methods but rises to thrilling bursts of earnestness when he wishes to drive home some special truth. His style is very attractive. He said, in part: “The great need of the world is the consciousness of God’s Spirit. The latter is a comprehensive gift. Every need is supplied by the Holy Spirit. See Luke, X1. The central thought of this Conference might well be, ‘The infilling of God’s spirit.” “There are three persons in the God-head: Father, son and spirit; but the spirit is the only one of the three now present in this world. The three persons have never been con- ing of men. Now, the spirit is the great executive, and God’s omnipo- tent power. “Portion off the Bible in three dispensations O. T., the father’s; the gospel’s, the son’s; from Acts 2 to the end and the present,the spirit’s. “In the O. T., the spirit is present, but not as the comforter. The dove is a Bible type of the spirit. Read the story of the ark, as a symbol of the work of the holy spirit. The spirit eq‘uips the Christian for service. = He gives to life liberty. John, the Baptist, though filled with the holy spirit from birth, looked to Jesus Christ, who baptized with fire and spirit. Jesus refers to this at the close of his career. Reference is also made to the great promise. See Joel 2:20, 29, and Acts 2: 31. “Every worker must have the realization of the spirit. Paper committees are useless. We must pass away from man-goading to God- constraint. God’s spirit must get a man, must charge him full of power. Jesus is the example of all believers— not sinners. He saves sinners and temporary executives in the influenc- We are closing $3.50 Shoes now O’Leary and Bowser The Leading Department Store SnapsinMen’s Shoes Douglas Shoes to make room for an entire new line for fall, Our new lines will be King Quality $3.50 to $5.00 Johnson @ Murphy $5.50 to $7.00 leads believers. He was spirit-filled out our stock of and spirlbcl{)thed. See reference to his readings in the synagogue from Isiah 61, “This conference will be a pre- sent-day realization of Pentecost, if all believers see and feel the pre- sence of the Great . Energizer for eternal life and victory.” Wednesday Morning’s Session. Devotional exercises were led by Rev. Graham Lee of Pyeng Yang, Korea. The first address was given by G. N. Luccock of Chicago, who spoke on “The Consecration of the Body.” He said in part: “We are saved not only to serve but to be served. Jesus served his desciples. It is natural to associate consecration and recreation. Paul exhorts us to present our bodies a living sacrifice. A certain man was criticised for loving his flesh. But in a very real sense we should love our bodies. We are called upon to be patriots. We naturally love our childhood scenes, but more than these should we love our bodies, the playground of soul. “There are two kinds of love: Self-satisfaction; this is degrading. Second, the love of appreciation; this is exalting. This moves to exulting study of the various organs. It is the body that will be redeemed. It will be redeemed. What a splendid destiny has the -body. Judge it by its achievements here. “There four laws: One, expurgation, outward clean condi- tion. Col. Bain said, ‘Indigestion will spoil any public speaker’s inspir- ation.” Same principle as applying to redeeming swamps, the destruc- tion of malaria, and the formation of splendid alluviums. “The body is the means of spirit- ual worship. Man’s spiritual history is written in his body. Cultivation. The bodies do not respond readily to the will; they must be trained thereto. There must be-perfect control, hence daily discipline is necessary, for our bodies are the instruments of God’s service. We should not have the soul the servant of the body, but vice versa. “Presentation. The heathén con- ception of pleasing God was by mutilation of the body. But the Christian conception is the present- ing of whole bodies. - A man ordi- narily shouldn’t overwork his body any more than he does his horse. Our holidays - should be sacred. are algo. Let us consecrate our vaca- tions, “Habitation. temples.” After the singing of a hymn, Rev. Grant Stroh of Warren, Minn,, began his course in Bible ‘study. Rev. Stroh formerly taught in the Henry Kendall college, of Muskogee, Indian Territory. He spoke on the book of Genesis. (The book is divided into genealogical portions, Our bodies are also geographical divisions: The Euphrates, the Jordan, the Nile rivers. Also the historical: The Primeval ch. 1-11; Patriarchal 12-50).) A topical division is as follows: Generation, 1-2; degeneration, 3-11; regeneration, 12-50. ’ The dispensatorial history: Clenic, 1.3; ant-deluvial, 4-8; post-deluvial, 9-3; patriarchal, 12-50. At first man is innocent until tested. He falls, In the next period God leaves man alone. The result is the flood. Next the test is by human laws, save God’s law of cap- ital punishment. It ends in babble. In the last period one family is chosen, a coronet of grace rules. The juror ends in Egypt. The biographical division, ch. 1-2; Adam, 6-11; Noah, 12-25; Abraham, 21-28; Isaac, Jacoh, 27-36; Joseph, 37-30. Adam reminds us of sin, Noah of salvation; Abraham of sepraati?fi; Isaac of submission; Jacab of suppli- cation;Joseph, savior. The men of Genesis were men of faith. Hebr. 11; Adam stands for hope; Noah for work; Abraham for obedience; Isaac for assurance;Jacob for worship; and Joseph vision. After a brief recess, the session was resumed by the singing of a hymn, thereupon Dr. Pratt took as text Rom. 8:1-4. Salvation depends on position. The walk is a result. Paul looks heavenward, and James man-ward. The judgment or con- demnation refers to sin. John 5:4 and 2, Cor.-5-10; Rom. 10-14, Verse 2. We must first be re- moved from the law by the death of Christ. Death does not sanctify. Rom. 6. We are dead to sin;in Rom 7; dead to law, Rom. 8. dead to the law of sin. We ‘need not sin if we will walk according to the spirit. The law of life lifts us above the law of sin. . Christ givesus spiritual position, the spirit gives possession. What Christ. does for us the spirit works in us.

Verse 4. That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us. This is done by the spirit. The meeting closed with prayer and singing. The opinion of all present at_the conference is that its spiritual power is intense. It has begun on a high plane. Great interest is being shown in all of the speakers. Dr. Luccocks well-known to members of the con- ference, is one of the most popular speakers, Rev. Stroh displays care- ful study of the bible along conserv- ative lines. Rev. Lee gave a very helpful study of prayer and consecration, at the morning devotions. Rev. Alfred Hall-Quest presided at the session,™ GO-OPERATION AT BAGLEY BENEFIT TO CREAMERIES Three Creameries in Clearwater County Jointly Order Car, Butter Tubs and Salt. Bagley, July 24.— (Special to Pioneer.)—The parties who are act- ing as managers of the three co-oper- ative creameries of Clearwater county have the financial-success of the institutions at heart and are deter- mined to make them second to none in the north half of the state, both as to the quality of the products turned out by each institution and also as to careful management.so that the returns of dividends from stock will be large, This fact has been demonstrated today by the arrival here of one car- load of butter tubs and also a carload of salt, which is being divided be- tween the three creameries tributary to Bagley. Through buying their supplies in carload lots the manage- ment of the creameries is saving a considerable sum, and the heads of the concern are to be congratulated on their wisdom in co-operating where it is to their mutual benefit to do so. The creameries in this county are destined to be the best ventures of any business undertaking. Great interest in them is being taken by the farmers and cream for the plants will be forthcoming in large quanti- ties. Bought 2,000,000 Feet of Pine. Frank Smith, an employe of the Brooks Bros. Lumber company of Minneapolis, has been in the city for several days. Mr. Smith has purchased about 2,000,000 feet of pine, owned by A. L. Crawford, and located about twelve miles north of Solway. The pine will be delivered to the Great Northern tracks at Solway for shipment to Minneapolis. JOHN MARTIN INJURED BY TRAIN AT BIG FALLS Sustained Bad Cuts in Head and Some Broken Ribs---Narrowly Escaped Death John Martin, a homesteader who has been working on the extension of the M. & I. railway north from Big Falls to Internati‘ofial/Falls. was hit by a construction train last night and quite seriously injured. He was brought to this city and placed in St. Anthony’s hospital, where Dr. Henderson attended to- his -injuries. Reports are somewhat conflicting as to how Martin met with the accident, but railroad men say that he was lying on the track, and being somewhat under the influence of liquor, did not notice the approach of a train. The engine hit him and when he was picked up, he was bleeding profusely from several wounds and was suffering much pain. He was picked up and taken to Big Falls and this morning was brought to Bemidji. An examination of Martin showed that he had sustained internal in- juries. besides two cuts in the head and two broken ribs. While Martin’s injuries are very painful, it is not thought that they will terminate fatally. The fact that Martin’s- tussick was zclose to his body “probably. .saved him from being terribly man-|, gled and instantly killed. i GOVERNOR SAYS STATE CANNOT OFFER REWARD Wires Editor of Pioneer Concerning Recovery of Body of Mrs. Emily Chase The state of Minnesota will not offer a reward of $100 for the re- covery of the body of Mrs. Emily Chase, who disappeared from her home at Yola, in~ Hubbard county, on June 28th and no trace of whom has yet been found. In fact, the state has no authority to offer such a reward. 2 The county authorities offered a reward of $100 for the recovery of the body of Mrs. Chase, or informa- tion that would lead to the- location of her whereabouts, and E. R. Dampier, county attorney of Hub- bard county, wrote to Governor Johnson, refiuesting that the state offer a like reward. In order to ascertain if the state had done anything in the matter, the editor of the Pioneer telegraphed Govenor Johnson, asking if any reward had been offered. Today, the following telegram was received from the governor, relative to the matter: “St. Paul, July 24—A. G. Rut- ledge, Bemidji: The state has offered no reward for the finding of the body of Mrs. Emily Chase. I have been advised by the attorney gen- eral’s office that the state makes no provision for rewards for such purposes. —John A. Johnson, Governor,” A ’phone message to the Pioneer from Yola, received at 9 o’clock this morning, states that no trace of the missing Mrs, Chase has been found, and the neiéfibors have about given up hope of ever locating her, either dead or alive. Feeling in the matter still runs high, and the relatives of Mrs. Chase are being roundly censured for their inactivity in the matter. Held Tent Meetings. Evangelist A. D. Maes and Mis- sionary E. F. Olander closed their tent meetings Sunday evening. The meetings were well attended, and a number expressed their decision to live a nobler and better life in the future than the past. Visiting Cards. A neat line of up-to-date visiting cards can always be found at this office. New and up-to-date type from which to select style of print- ing.
