The week of prayer at College 
View was a season of blessing and 
a time of deeper consecration and 
richer experience on the part of the 
College and church. 
At the College the readings were 
given before the entire school at 
the time of chapel exercises. Once 
Elder E. T. Russell spoke for half 
an hour; then six social meetings 
were held among the five hundred 
students present, a large majority 
taking part. At. seven o'clock 
each evening division meetings 
were held for German students, 
Scandinavian students, English 
Home students, and English out-
side students. These meetings 
were usually prayer and social 
meetings. They were well at-
tended, and many were ready to 
testify every time there was an 
opportunity. On account of the 
large number of conversions and 
baptisms during Elder Warren's 
meetings, there were not so many 
new conversions as we usually ex-
pect during the week of prayer. 
Still, tile Lord is working by His 
Spirit, and decisions to yield all to 
Christ are being made. We ex-
pect that another company will 
soon be ready for baptism. The 
closing meetings were held Sab-
bath afternoon, the one in the Eng-
lish chapel being under the aus-
pices of the Young People's Society 
of Missionary Volunteers. At 
these closing meetings the annual 
offerings for missions were pre-
sented. 
In the church daily district 
prayer meetings were - held for 
those who were too feeble or too 
aged to attend the night meetings. 
General meetings were held at the 
church each night at seven o'clock. 
The offerings were received Sab-
bath forenoon. At the Sanitarium 
daily services were held in the 
evening under the general charge 
of the chaplain, Brother Gilbert. 
During the last half of the week 
Elder and Mrs. A. T. Robinson 
and Elder E. T. Russell were 
present and divided their assis-
tance among the different institu-
tions. Their help was greatly appre-
ciated and contributed largely to 
the success of the meetings. The 
offerings were as follows:—

On Saturday and Sunday even-
ings the citizens of College View 
were favored with temperance lec-
tures by the eloquent temperance 
orator, James L. Himrod, of Los 
Angeles, Cal. Mr. Himrod com-
pletely won the attention and good 
will of his audience the first night. 
His vivid word paintings illustrat-
ing the evils of intemperance, his 
simple, direct, and forceful appeals 
for living clean, pure lives, and 
the deep, religious spirit that char-
acterizes his addresses, all com-
bine to make him a very effective 
temperance advocate. He left for 
Texas Sunday night to deliver sev-
eral lectures at a prohibition con-
vention. Then he will return to 
organize a temperance campaign 
in Nebraska to last during the 
summer. 
The prohibition sentiment is ris-
ing rapidly throughout the land. 
In the South prohibition by local 
option has spread over the larger 
portion of many of the states. 
Alabama h a s recently decided 
for prohibition, and Oklahoma has 
been admitted to the Union with a 
prohibition constitution. We be-
lieve in the principle. The manu-
facture and sale of alcoholic drinks 
ought to be prohibited by national 
law, except for scientific, indus-
trial, and medicinal purposes. We 
would prohibit it not only on Sun-
day but also upon every other day 
of the week. But we would not 
prohibitit on Sunday because of the 
supposed sacredness of that day, 
nor upon Saturday because • it is 
the Sabbath of Jehovah, but up-
on both days, and upon every 
other day, because the traffic is de-
structive of the best interests of 
society. 
Tuesday evening the Philalathe-
ian Society gave a very unique and 
satisfactory entertainment at South 
Hall for the students and teachers 
and their friends. Each guest on 
arrival was given a folder entitled 
"Art Convention," on which were 
printed forty-one titles, corres-
ponding to a like number of 
objects arranged on tables around 
the dining room of South Hall, 
where the "Convention" w a s 
held. Naturally each person be-
gan to search for the pieces of 
art. "Relics of the Great" proved 
to be clinkers taken frOm the fur-
nace grate. "Cause of the Revo-
lution" was represented by a plate 
of tea with tacks thrown in. After 
a short program of music, recita-
tions, e t c., refreshments were 
served in the form of a "Dish of 
Conversation." Five topics; such 
as, "My First Day in Union Col-
lege," "How I Earned My First 
Dollar," were announced one by 
one, and the guests were asked to 
converse three minutes on each 
topic. Thus the time was pleas-
antly and profitably spent, and at 
nine o'clock the exercises closed 
with a beautiful quartet selection 
entitled, "The Boatman's Song." 
MISSION LIFE IN FIJI 
From Brother and Sister C. H. 
Parker comes a very interesting 
letter telling of their experiences in 
Fiji. Brother Parker, who was 
one of the early students of Union 
College, says that they take great 
interest in reading of the progress 
of the work here and speaks of 
the pleasure it would give them to 
THE EDUCATIONAL MESSENGER 
visit us. Speaking of their experi-
ences he says:— 
"We are enabled by the grace of 
God, to bear up under the trying 
conditions of this tropical field, and 
the Lord is blessing the work of 
our hands. About two months ago 
we thought we would have to part 
with Myrtle (his wife). For two 
weeks she hovered between life 
and death. If God had not es-
pecially intervened, she would 
have been resting now. I cannot 
praise my heavenly Father enough 
for His great mercy to me. No 
one understands these island fields 
until he spends several years in 
them.. Our road ways are old 
ocean's billows. Sometimes there 
seems but a step between us and 
death, as we are driven by storm 
and tempest. The roar of the reefs 
is something terrible as the moun-
tain high waves pile upon them. 
Yet the Lord delivers us out of all 
our distresses and we have no de-
sire to return to the home land. 
We have given our lives to the is-
land work, and just as long as the 
Lord can use us here we are anx-
ious and willing to stay. 
"We had a very pleasant and 
profitable time at our last council, 
really the first one we have had in 
Fiji. There were thirty-five dele-
gates, or, taken all together, two 
hundred and forty-two of our 
brethren in attendance. We had 
had a great deal of work to do, but 
the Lord helped us through with it, 
so that we were suprised at the 
amount which was accomplished in 
such a short time. Every question 
and plan was studied but not de-
bated. There was no division, and 
when it came to the vote it was un-
animous; or, in other words, there 
was not a dissenting vote cast 
throughout the whole proceedings. 
"The calls of this field are many 
and urgent. We are only able to 
respond to a tithe of them because of 
of the few laborers that we have to 
man the field. We have started a 
training school. �
The Lord has 
greatly blessed it this last year. 
"This field will no doubt be the 
chief recruiting station for the other 
groups of islands around us which 
are yet unentered by this message. 
"Two of our boys are under ap-
pointment at the present to help 
open up the work in the New Gui-
nea Field. It is more than likely 
that our teacher, Brother Carr, will 
be taken also. The Solomon Is-
lands as well as the New Hebridies 
must soon be entered. 
"My object in writing is to inter-
est you in our school work here, 
as it will be the place from which 
many of our young men will be 
drawn for these yet unentered 
fields. There is a way that you 
could help us, and that is, Could 
vou not interest some of the stu-
dents there to support one or more 
of our students here? It costs six 
pounds (thirty dollars) a yea r. 
There are a number in Australia, 
Tasmania, N e w Zealand, and 
America helping in this work. It 
is not for our field that I am ask-
ing this help, but for the training 
of men for these fields beyond. 
We will be glad to furnish you 
pictures and reports of the boy or 
boys that you may wish to help fit 
for the work. I know that you 
will be blessed in the undertaking, 
besides the help and encourage-
mcnt that it will give to this people 
to prepare for the work of the 
Master. Our work here will al-
ways have to be considered from 
the philanthropic view, as this 
people have but very little to do 
with. Of what they have they 
give liberally, but that is mostly 
what they can produce from the 
earth." 
We commend this work of sup-
porting one or more students in 
Brother Parker's school to the stu-
dents and teachers of Union Col-
lege and to any others who may be 
interested. The MESSENGER will 
be glad to receive contributions 
for the support of a student and to 
forward them to Brother Parker. 
THREE THINGS TO AVOID 
EUGENE ROWELL 
Evil Companions. — There are 
three kinds of evil companions—
evil associates, evil books, and 
evil thoughts. They go together 
so well, and have in common such 
a blighting influence on those who 
become acquainted with them, that 
one kind cannot be said to be worse 
than another. If you keep evil 
company, you will soon like evil 
books, and will have evil thoughts; 
if you read. bad books, you will 
soon find pleasure in low company; 
and if you entertain evil thoughts, 
you will soon seek both corrupt 
companions and bad books. 
Avoid evil companions because 
we become like those with whom 
we associate. By being with them 
we are led to adopt their manners 
and their habits of thinking, and 
are led to do as they do. 
Shun bad books. Of all the filth 
and slime of wickedness with which 
this world is filled, there is no mud 
that bespatters us so thoroughly, 
or dries on so quickly, or is so 
hard to wash off, or leaves such an 
ugly stain, as trashy and immoral 
literature. 
The fact that bad books are so 
plentiful, and are found in the 
homes of those belonging to the 
higher circles, so called, makes it 
the more necessary for us to be 
careful. 
Some books by their very appear-
ance and titles, admit that they are 
bad, as some men do by their faces 
and manners. But guard especi-
ally against that worst of all hypo-
crites, a vile book with a mislead-
ing title and an attractive binding. 
Clasp a venomous serpent to your 
bosom sooner than let the poison of 
an impure book pollute your heart 
and mind. 
Seek ye out of the book of the 
Lord, and read. Is. 34:16. 
Chase evil thoughts away. "As 
a man thinketh in his heart, so is 
he." Sinful companions can only 
influence us from without, but evil 
thoughts are within, and soon be-
come a part of us. Gloomy and de-
jected thoughts, and envious and 
hateful feelings, are enemies, and 
make our lives bitter. Drive them 
from you. 
Idleness.—While you are idle, 
the world is going on just the same, 
and you are missing opportunities 
that will not come your way again. 
It is when you are idle that evil 
thoughts come in. There is work 
to be done, and if you fail to do 
your share, you place an extra bur-
den upon others. 
Slothfulness casteth into a deep 
sleep, and an idle soul shall suffer 
hunger. Proverbs 19:15. 
God gave you eyes to see and 
hands with which to work that you 
might use them for the good of 
yourself and others. To even want 
to be idle when there are so many 
overworked people, and there is so 
much work left undone, is a thing 
that should make any person 
ashamed. If vou want to amount to 
anything, or to have any part with 
God here or hereafter, go to work. 
If you want to be healthy, happy, 
and honored, get to doing some-
thing. 
Indifference.—Of all the things 
that will keep you down, one of the 
worst is indifference as to what 
you do. Take your stand one way 
or the other, and be interested 
enough to have an opinion. �
The 
most unfortunate and hopeless con-
dition you can fall into, is to be in-
different to both good and evil—a 
stick of driftwood on life's stream. 
THE EDUCATIONAL MESSENGER �

Do not say, "It doesn't matter," 
or "I don't care." It does matter, 
and you must care. If you feel that 
things in which you should take an 
interest are only trifles, and do not 
amount to anything, you will find 
at the last that your whole life has 
been a trifle, and has not amounted 
to anything. The man who is suf-
ficiently alive to the importance of 
any question to have an adverse 
opinion, you can argue with and 
convince, if he is wrong; and if you 
are wrong, he will convince you. 
But all appeal, or argument, or 
reason, is wasted on an indifferent 
man; and if you did win him to 
your side, he would be no good to 
your cause. If you are indifferent 
as to your thoughts, your speech, 
your opinions, you will soon become 
indifferent as to your actions. Be 
interested. Take a lively part in 
the work and the pleasure, and feel 
an active sympathy for the sorrow 
that is all around you. Have your 
likes and dislikes. Love the good 
and hate the wrong. 
Prove all things; hold fast that 
which is good. Abstain from all 
appearance of evil. r Thess. 5: 
21:22. 
REPORT OF COLLEGE VIEW 
SABBATH-SCHOOLS 
SEPT. 21, 1907* 
WINNIE P. HUNT 
At ten o'clock Sabbath morning 
Sept. 21, the opening songs of the 
College View Sabbath-schools were 
heard. "There is Sunlight in the 
Heart,"—the first song sung in 
Union College—was used to open 
the College Sabbath-school after 
the summer vacation. Elder S. 
M. Butler offered prayer. C. L. 
Benson read the 107th Psalm and 
urged the students to "work at 
their religion" even while in school. 
Thirty-seven classes were formed 
with a total membership of ' 210. 
The donation was $6.42. 
Compared with the report of the 
last Sabbath of the previous school 
year—May 18, 1907—this is en-
couraging. Then the membership 
was 110; attendance, eighty-one; 
and the donation, $2.30. 
The following officers were 
elected for the first term: for sup- 
erintendent, E. C. Kellogg; for 
assistants, Glenn George a n d 
Edith Shively; for secretary, Agnes 
Lewis; for assistant secretary, 
Arthur Dick.

with thirty-five visitors and $3.04 
donation was reported. 
At the Sanitarium eighteen pa-
tients and helpers gathered to study 
the lesson for the day in their 
chapel. Although a small school, 
it is doing faithful work—planting 
seeds of truth in the hearts of those 
who come to the institution that 
they may receive spiritual as well 
as physical healing. The donation 
was $.61. Hannah Larson is 
superintendent and Hattie Garton, 
secretary.
