It is a mistaken policy to allow 
lawless persons to continue in their 
evil way in order to gain their good 
will, or to keep them from becom-
ing discouraged, or for fear they 
will take revenge by destroying 
your property or calling you 
• 
names or offering some indignity 
to your person. Such a policy 
will fail of its purpose. Under it 
evil doers wax worse and worse. 
A community thus conducted be-
comes a training school for the 
production of criminals. Every 
small boy is encouraged to defy 
law and join the company of law-
breakers. Let the law take its 
course. Let evil-doers feel its 
strong hand and they will learn to 
have more respect for its majesty 
and sacredness.

Editorial 
Please Read Romans 13:1-7. 
From this passage of Scripture 
it is plain that civil government is 
ordained of God, and that civil 
rulers are the ministers of God to 
hold law-breakers in check, in or-
der that law-keepers may pursue 
in peace their daily avocations. 
Every soul, Christian or other-
wise, should be subject to these 
powers. The law-abiding citizen 
will not be afraid of them. On the 
contrary he will recognize in them 
a divinely-ordained means of pro-
tection from wicked and unprinci-
pled men. 
And such a policy is in perfect 
harmony with the Scriptures. It 
is not contrary to the declaration 
that brother should not go to law 
against a brother. It is not bro- 
ther against brother; it is organiz-
ed society against those who defy 
the laws of organized society. The 
State proceeds against the offender 
in the name of the people and for 
their protection. All right-think-
ing persons, especially all Chris-
tains, more especially allChristians 
who stand prominently before the 
world as commandment-keepers, 
should take their stand unequivo-
cally on the side of the laws of 
the land and those who enforce 
them, unless some law should be 
enacted contary to the law of God. 
The Publishing Department of 
the General Conference is making 
the "Scholarship Plan" a perman-
ent feature of the canvassing work, 
and is calling for a thousand per-
sons to begin work this fall for one 
or more scholarships next year. 
Any energetic person can win two 
scholarships by the fall of 1908 
and make a good living as he goes 
along. Try it, young man or 
young woman. Write us for partic-
ulars. 
The call of the busy world to-
day is for men and women who 
have had a practial training as 
well as a theoretical one. This is 
but natural. Not only is it essential 
that the "why is it done" be un-
derstood, but the how is it done" 
as well. The education that 
counts is the one that teaches how 
to do the practical things of life. 
The busy world demands educated 
people with a thorough knowledge 
of some special line. ----Selected 
We have received a call from 
Professor Griggs, chairman of the 
Educational Department of the 
General Conferenc, asking for two 
teachers to take up church school 
work in the West Indies. He states 
that the West Indian brethren are 
very anxious that we should get 
them good teachers who have had 
that experience which would prove 
them to be qualified for the work. 
These schools are ready to open 
and have the support for the teach-
ers provided. If any feel impress-
ed to respond to this call, let them 
write us and we will put them in cor-
respondence with Prof. Griggs. 
Mr. Clem Benson, the Central 
Union Assistant in the Young 
People's Work, has accepted the 
invitation to take the secretary-
ship of the Educational and Young 
People's work in the Northern 
Union Conference, the place made 
vacant by the call of Otto Graf to 
Union College. Our Union Con-
ference regrets very much to lose 
Mr. Benson, especially just at this 
time. Inasmuch as the head-quar-
ters of the General Conference 
Missionary Volunteer Department 
are located temporarily at College 
View, Professor Kern has been 
asked to retain the Central Union 
Conference Young People's work 
until the meeting of the Conference 
in January, and Mr. Otto John 
has been appointed to assist him 
in the work. The MESSENGER 
wishes Mr. Benson the same suc-
cess as has crowned his efforts in 
the Central Union. 
"Our schools are overflowing," 
is the word that comes from every 
part of the land. The young 
people's movement and the scholar-
ship plan of the canvassing work 
are without doubt the chief causes 
of this prosperity. Let the good 
work go on.

TEE EDUCATIONAL MESSENGER 
DEATH OF EMIL 
F. JOHNSON 
With sadness we record the 
death of Emil F. Johnson, who 
attended Union College year be-
fore last. He was working for 
Brother John F. Graham, of Bal-
lard, Washington, saving his mon-
ey to return to College, expecting 
to finish the Swedish course this 
year. With his employer he had 
gone in a gasoline launch on some 
business about thirty miles away. 
They rode all night. Both were 
employed about the boat. Toward 
morning Brother Graham took the 
wheel, while Emil went to the 
stern. After a time Brother Gra-
ham fell asleep, and when he 
awoke he saw Emil lying on the 
cabin floor as if asleep. When he 
tried to arouse him he found that 
he was dead. This was the morn-
ing of August 15. The coroner 
said he died of heart disease. 
Emil was an upright, faithful, 
Christain young man. Brother 
Graham says: "We loved him as 
one of our own family, and had 
large hopes of his usefulness. I 
know that Emil was a good Chris-
tain brother and faithful in his ser-
vice to our Lord. We feel that he 
will surely have a part in the first 
resurrection. He was working for 
us, to get money to go to school, 
to prepare for service in the Mas-
ter's work." To the relatives and 
schoolmates of Emil we extend our 
deepest sympathy and pray that 
God may comfort them in their 
sorrow. 
THE SCHOOL WORK 
IN JAMAICA 
The readers of the MESSENGER 
are already acquainted with the 
fact that Professor C. B. Hughes 
and wife have gone from Keene 
Academy, Keene, Texas, to take 
charge of the new school enterprise 
in Jamaica. From a letter written 
by Sister Hughes a few weeks ago, 
we glean for ourr eaders the follow-
ing interesting facts concerning this 
school. 
It is located at Willowdene, 
Jamaica. The school house stands 
on the side of a hill, and moun-
tains can be seen in every direction. 
At the time of writing their school 
family consisted of 24. The house 
has four rooms above, and an 
assembly room and a room for the 
boys below. They dine up stairs 
on the veranda. The workers are 
all well, and are much pleased with 
the climate and the ontlook in gen- 
eral. They say the summer is not 
hot. So far the climate has been 
delightful. At night they sleep 
with the doors and windows open, 
but have as much cover as they 
would need in Texas. The weather 
the year around is said to be like 
fall in Missouri. They had been 
having much dry weather at the 
time of writing, but were expecting 
the rainy season in a few weeks. 
In the dry season they have a heavy 
dew and fog nearly every morning, 
so that the air does not seem dry. 
But they were having no rain to wet 
the ground or replenish the tank, 
which is their only water supply; 
hence until the rains come on, they 
have to haul water about two miles. 
They have bananas all the year a-
round, and oranges until about the 
first of April. Since then they were 
having star apples. Besides ban-
anas there is said to be some other 
kind of fruit in season throughout 
the year. 
The financial question is a very 
perplexing one. They have a farm 
of 98 acres, and from this the Gen-
eral Conference wishes them to 
make enough money to support the 
school, since very few of the pupils 
will be able to pay tuition, and 
many of them cannot even pay for 
their board except as they work it 
out. The General Conference has 
been very liberal in offering to 
erect buildings and get things 
started, but the workers do not as 
yet know how the matter of support 
will go when they get the school 
started. 
There is a natural bridge six and 
one half miles from the school, and 
recently the teachers took the stu-
dents to see it. The boys had just 
completed clearing and plowing a 
piece of land, and had been work-
ing so hard that they were given a 
holiday, and all the school went 
with them to see the bridge. 
The workers say they never be-
fore saw so many poor people. 
They certainly need schools. But 
they have nice, devoted young 
people as material to work with. 
The school was advertised to be-
gin June 3, but classes were being 
conducted for the benefit of those 
who were working on the farm and 
about the school. There is as yet 
no church erected, hence Sabbath-
school is held in the assembly room 
of the school. A few persons be-
sides the school family meet for 
worship. The people speak Eng-
lish, but the language is so poor it 
is difficult to understand them. 
At the time of writing Brother and 
Sister Cushman, of Lincoln, Neb., 
were expected soon, and upon 
their arrival it was planned to build 
a cottage so as to provide more room 
for the school. We shall be glad 
to receive later the report of the 
opening of the school.

FELLOWSHIP IN PRAYER. 
I cannot tell why there should come to 
me, 
Thought of you, Friend, miles or years 
away, 
In swift insistence on the memory, 
Unless, for you, it needs be that I pray. 
You go your way, I mine; we seldom 
meet 
To talk of plans and longings day by 
O f d pain or pleasure, triumph or defeat, 
Or special reasons why 'tis time to pray. 
We are too busy e'en to spare thought, 
For days together, of the friends away; 
Perhaps God does it for us, and we 
ought 
To heed the memory as a call to pray. 
Perhaps just then, that one has fiercer 
fight, 
A more appalling weakness, a decay 
Of courage, darkness, a losing hold of 
right— 
And so, in case he needs my prayer I 
pray. 
Friend, do the same for me! If I in- 
trude 
In thought upon you, on some crowded 
day, 
Give me a moment's prayer, as inter- 
lude; 
Be very sure I need it, therefore pray. 
And as you bear my name before the 
Throne, 
Perhaps in prayer for you, I'll meet 
you there! 
Oh! Let us not neglect this holy gift—
What blessings God hath wrought thro' 
prayer. �

During the past month the College 
View Young People's Work has been 
undergoing a thorough reorganization. 
The young ladies' and young men's per-
sonal'work bands have united under the 
name of the College View S. D. A. 
Young People's Society of Missionary 
Volunteers. Besides conducting its per-
sonal work and prayer' divisions the 
Society has the supervision of the Sab-
bath afternoon.Young People's Meeting, 
and the Junior Work. 
The following persons are the officers 
of the Society: President, H. U. Ste-
vens; Secretary, Emily Johnson; Treas-
urer, M. B. Jenkins; Leader of Young 
Men's Division, W. J. Eden; Leader of 
Young Ladies' Division, Matilda Erick-
son; Leader of Junior Division, Otto M. 
John. 
The new name "Missionary Volun-
teers" adopted at the late Young People's 
Convention, is most significant. A vol-
unteer recognizes within himself or her-
self certain power and ability which, if 
controlled by a Supreme Commander, 
may play an important part in carrying 
the message to a dying world. Let us 
take the name at its full worth.
