met the teachers and officers of the Sun-
day School, the young people and Mis-
sionary Volunteers in the Young Peo-
ple's Building, in a heart-to-heart talk
about Christ, Our Victory—the one who
bears fruit through us, and who can
bring our scholars and friends to Him-
self, if we are filled with His Spirit. Mr.
Trumbull spoke again on Sunday morn-
ing, at the Tabernacle, of The Impor-
tance of the Death of Jesus Christ, in
contrast with the minor importance of
His life, which would have been of no
avail without its climaxing atonement
for sin.
On Sunday afternoon the young peo-
ple of our Christian Companionship
Club (which has just said goodbye to
three of its number leaving for a mis-
sionary training school to prepare for
work on the foreign field) were so filled
with love and the desire to spread the
Gospel, that they agreed to give $1.660
for missions. Just one organization! In
announcing the glad news, Rev. Mr.
Woolley said, "Now, if they can afford
to do that, on top of all the rest they
are doing, for most of them are already
giving to the lot, the current church ex-
penses, and foreign missions in other
ways, in the Sunday School and in the
Church—if they can do that, surely we
can do something for the glory of the
Lord." Surely our hearts are burning
within us, in the great desire to see
souls saved in these "night hours of the
world before the morning cometh."
In the evening Pastor William Fetter
made a stirring appeal for help in the
evangelization of Russia, a large num-
ber of young people volunteering to pre-
pare for service in that land, which is
now open for the first time to the Gos-
pel. Among them were many Russian
speaking people, particularly some splen-
did specimens of Russian manhood.
Although we greatly miss our beloved
Pastor, still the Lord is in the midst
pouring out His blessings, and we are
glad to follow Mr. Rader in our prayers
that he may be used to lead many souls
to Jesus on this tour, and be given
money enough to carry the Gospel quick-
ly to the boys in the trenches, through
the Salvation Army. Mr. Rader has
visited Dallas and Houston, Texas;
Tulsa, Okla.; Los Angeles and San
Francisco, Cal., and is touring North-
ward from that point. As he is speaking
many times a day, he has not had the
time to send special messages to GOOD
NEWS, but we hope to have something
from him for next week's issue.
A "Thank You"
Mr. E. Y. Woolley, Moody Tabernacle,
Chicago.
Dear Mr. Woolley:
Again I wish to express my thanks to
you and to your congregation for the
use of the Rader Tabernacle during the
past year. As you know our assembly
hall is too small for practical use. We
cannot seat more than 600 in it with
comfort, and as our school numbers
about 2,400 men and boys, you will ap-
preciate what the free use of the Rader
Tabernacle means to us. During the
past five months it has given us splendid
service. You have never made any
charge and the hall has always been in
good condition. I appreciate what it
has meant to you to heat it during these
months. In war time especially school
mass meetings are very effective as a
means of inculcating patriotism. The
campaigns for Liberty Loans, Red Cross,
Y. M. C. A. Thrift Stamps, Farm Boys
would not have been nearly so effective
at Lane if it had not been for your
help.
I speak for the entire school and for
the parents of the pupils in offering
my thanks.
Yours truly,
(Signed) WM. J. BOGAN,
Principal, the Lane Technical School.
Jan. 29, 1918.
Are you chosen of the Master
Have you heard His tender call?
Has He bid you rise and follow
Where He leads, forsaking all?
He seeks not the great and mighty,
But the lowly, meek and mild,
Who are plastic in His fingers
As a weak and helpless child.
He will make, and mold, and fit you
For each task He bids you do.
All He asks is, "Are you willing,
Are you faithful, are you true?"
-A. B. C.

the previous whole night in prayer
(Luke 6:12). He apparently had many
more disciples or followers but from
among them He chose those twelve for a
distinct purpose. The selection of these
twelve men was no doubt a very impor-
tant matter. If the Lord needed to
spend a whole night in prayer before se-
lecting His officers how much more
should the church pray and look to God
for guidance when the matter of select-
ing officers for church or Sunday School
work is before them. At such times one
thing must be kept in view definitely
and that is the glory of God and the
best interest of and in His work. Per-
sonal preferences must not be consid-
ered.
The Lord's object of this appointment
was "that they might be with Him," for
instruction and training, no doubt, and
then "that He might send them forth to
preach and to have authority over sick-
nesses and to cast out demons" (R. V.).
They were to be His representatives,
teach His doctrine and do His works.
All these things stirred up His ene-
mies the more against Him, until some
of his Kinsmen (vs. 21 marg., R. V.)
came to take Him away saying, "He is
beside Himself" Even His mother and
brothers came to the house and asked
to have an interview with Him (vss. 31-
35). "for even His brethren did not be-
lieve on Him" (John 7:5, R. V.).
No wonder we are encouraged to
"consider Him that endured such con-
tradiction of sinners against Himself"
(Heb. 12:3), lest we become wearied in
our trails and oppositions.—C. H. Brun-
ner, Home Department Quarterly.

Temptation is never sin. Satin will alwars tempt you. He tempted even the
Son of God. But Jesus can keep us from falling if we trust His promise and
power to keep. Read Jude 24; Matt. 14:30,31
There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man:
but God is faithful, who will not suffer vou to be tempted above that ye
are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape that ye
