LIFTERS AND LEANERS SThere are two kinds of people on earth today- Just two kinds of people, no more, A I say. -- '.7 .. -w A SNot the rich and the poor, for to ' Scout a man's wealth y You must first know the state of his conscience and health.. sNot the humble and proud, for in life's little span , Who puts on vain airs is. not counted a man.

Or are you a leaner who lets others bear Your portion of labor and worry W and care.? a ----Washington Star. IHAVE had good opportunity this year Sto see our church at work over the whole State and study Ithe conditions in the var'- ious parts of the conference. I'was present a"' some of the Missionary Institutes, at- tended six of 'the District Conferences, the Commencement at Southern College, the State League Conference and the Sunday School Conference at Lakeland. . The plans, enterpl-ises and scope \of the work of'these bodies were bioad, comnpre- hensive and declared failth in God to be with us and help us. The.spirit of these meet- ings was reverent, prayerful, trusting and determined. In the Di'strict Conferences I think I heard an hundred pastors report their work. Many of the men reported from hard and difficult fields; but they were hopeful and testified that God was with them and those who heard what they had done and the conditions under which they lhad worked could not doubt it. We had sixteen members of the Board of Trustees present at commencement. There was a deep interest manifssted in the affairs of the college. Plans were laid for larger and better things for the school, and if our people will stand by these men we shall be able to build a splendid college. S T ,ave attended most of the State League Conferences, but for planning, pointed and iL spring speeches, as to the Leaguers knowing what they wanted to do, how \to ..rio it, and setting on foot measures to get ' (results, I think :the one at St. Augustine was the best I have ever attended. The work of the Sunday School Confer- ences has been told recently in the papers. It was more than good and a great impetus has been given the work over the entire State. 1 have been on many of the pastoral charges and worshipped with the brethren; talked over their difficulties and achieve- ments, listened to their plans for better things for our Zion and it is my opinion that not in all Methodism can 'there be found a truer, more devoted and harder working Sset of men. If my faith was wavering as tO the success of the church and the !triumph of the gospel an evening with some of these men some of them, too, on the hardest fields, would be made strong. No one can come in close 'touch with these godly men and the consecrated laymen and devout women who are working so faithfully with them without truly believing that the church is moving steadily forward in her work of salvation for the whole world. The building projects for churches and personages will -cone close to a quarter of a million of dollars this year. .There is good ground to believe that there will be more money collected for the benevolences than i, the history of our conference. e The college is growing in favor with our people over the whole State and there -is fine promise for a good opening on Sept. 17th. Our Editor and Advocate are already in good standing with all the people and arc growing in the grace of usefulness. Many gracious revivals have been held over the State; the fires have been kept burning and sinners have been truly saved. Our preachers still know how and are able to call men to repentance and lead them in- to the kingdom of our Lord. I am confident the increase of membership will be larger than any previous year. Summing up the various activities of the church this year, I am sure the brethren will make a good report and give good ac- count of their stewardship at Tallahassee in December.

It was a revival in every sense of the word. The Lord wonderfully blessed us from the very first ser- vice. We cosed out at high tide with twenty accessions and more to follow. Rev. S. A.

Hortsfield, of Gairesville, was with me, leading the singing, preaching, exporting and praying. Rev. Joe Tolbert of Ft., White, another local preacher, did us much good service, especially his prayers at the altar. We received three by profession.

Isaac Boring, the pioneer preacher referred to in that issue. His name is Rev. Isaac W. Boring, and he is here in Lakeland with his son. Bro. Boring is a local elder and is 70 years of age. Hie and his wife spend their time visiting their eight chil- dren in Florida, Georgia and Alabama. He spends his winters down pn Sanibel Island. Bro. Boring has in his possession .his distinguished father's ordination papers. He was ordained a deacon by Bishop Joshua Soule, at Augusta, Ga., Jan. 14, 1827, and elder by Bishop William Mc- Kendree at Charleston, S. C., Feb. 1, 1829. Bro. Boring has one sister, Mrs. T. M. Furlow,Americus, Ga., and one brother, J. D. Boring, Myrtle, Texas, Bro. Boring is well preserved and while S ht does not preach very often, a few Sun- days ago he preached three times for Bro. Pace, at 1Anthony. JAPANESE BELIEVE IN THE GOSPEL Dr. Lovett, editor of the Weslyan Christian Advocate, mentions the fact that the missionaries of Japan state it as their belief that the solution of-the question between that nation and this is not in the adjustment of treaties, nor the modification of laws, but only by the activity of the field yonder have both remedies tried and they are qualified to speak as to which is Christians of America. These men on the the more effective method of dealing with the attitude between Japan and the United States. The statement they make is high testimony to the power of the gospel to deal with the great questions of state as well as with those of the individual in his relation to the Master of us all. This strong assertion in the force of Christianity should arouse the professed followers of Jesus Christ in the homeland to the utmost Chris- tian activity. In our service for Christ we touch helpfully the nations of the earth, 1913. NUMBER 16. WHAT WE SPEND FOR MUSIC. A writer in the New York Sun recently compiled statistics showing the expenditure in America for music to be nearly $6oo,ooo,- ooo annually. Of this amount $22o,ooo,ooo000 is spent for musical education, $i70o,ooo,ooo for musical instruments, $70,ooo,oo0 for musical sundries, $30,ooo,ooo for military band, $25,000ooo,00ooo for the theatre $25,ooo,ooo for concerts, $2o,ooo,ooo for Church music, and $8,ooo,ooo for the opera. It is interest- ing to note how insignificant is the amount spent for Church music in comparison with what is spent for worldly music. GOOD-BYE, GOD. Where are you spending the summer? With God or without Him? "Good-bye, God; I am off on my vacation," may be an old joke, but it is far too pertinent. The summer conscience is an annual visitor to the souls of many. Liberty in winter be- comes license in summer. The temptations of the great city are many but the tempta- tions of the seashore and the mountain are none the less severe. They trust them- selves upon us on the hotel porch, on the beach, at the card party and wheresoever we turn. They even tempt us to stay away from the house of God and thus to cheat God out of the value of our witness- ing for him. Even at that delightful time of the year when we cater to the flesh it is true that man can not live by bread alone; he needs that which proceeds from the mouth of God. .., SHOWS A LOSS. The Congregational Yearbook for 1913. issued July I, shows a total of $1,217,520 contributed to benevolences through var- ious societies of the church during the past year. This is a loss of $35,852, as compared with the contributions of the preceding year. We have some interesting "department editors.

The following items from the Church Extension Handbook for 1913 will show that the Board of Church Extension is do- ing business sure enough for the Church and for the spread of the Kingdom. Re- ceipts on assessments for the past year were $97,590, an increase of $3,115.19 over the receipts for 1911-12; contributed for specials, $42,774.21; for loan funds, $56,475.70, a total from all the Conferences of $296,840.57. Since 1882, when the work' of Church extension was organized in our Church, there has been donated for Churches and parsonages $2,610,378.93, and leaned for Churches and parsonages, $i,- 356,062.83. The number of Churches aided is 8,692, or more than one-half of the pres- ent number of houses of worship owned by our Church. In the General Minutes the number of parsonages reported is 5,449, and of this number 2,261 have been aided by the Church Extension Board. GAMBLING IS GAMBLING. Bro. Glenn, of Alabama, speaks right out. Hie calls things by their right name. Speaking of fashionable gambling, he says that gambling is gambling, just as truly in a fine parlor in a residence or club house, among white people who are "leaders in society," as among a lot of ignorant negroes concealed in a cabin or "shooting craps" by a flickering tallow candle out in the woods. It would require often all the proceeds of dozens of games of "craps" or "'skin" to equal the value of the "prize" won at "bridge" or other such game in some man- sion, while one game of poker would often, in its stakes, bankrupt a thousand negro gamesters. It is an outrage on justice, in view of the law in the case, to lay violent hands on the ignorant and besotted crapperss" and skinnerss" and pay no attention to the bridgers and pokerists among "society's petted darlings." If both put themselves in the same stream, then haul both out with the same seine. Never mind the flapping around. HIaul them out. DIED TO SAVE OTHERS. Two men lost their lives in Georgia last week in their effort to save a drowning girl. The girl was saved but the two men went down. How grateful the young lady must 1)e to those men who lost their lives in her behalf. This should remind us of the one cne who gave His life for us, and we should love Him for what He did for us. "I gave, 1 gave my life for thee! What hast thou civen for me?" One of our subscribers in good old Ark- ansas writes: "Paper not received last week. Please do not overlook Arkansas."

AFFECTS THE SALONS. The stringent new State aw which pre- vents the screening of saloons and imposes various other "reforms" covering the sale of intoxicants, which was passed at the recent legislature does not go into effect until Sep- tember 30,by reason of which Florida saloon- is'ts have a few weeks of grace before the "epidemic" strikes them Solicitor W. H. Jackson is expected to see that the law is en- forced, says the Tampa Times. One feature of '!the new law is that a saloonist is not allowed to sell-any quantity of whiskey to any person whatsoever on credit," which, said a citizen, "is an absolute outrage against a fellow who is broke and thirsty at the same time, ain't it?"' Even John D. Rockefeller could not buy a fifteen cent drink without producing the where- withal.
