W H E N A R E W E S A V E D ? I have heard it said that we

are saved at death, that there is many a slip between the cup and the lip, that it is only when death kisses down the eyelids still that we can know for sure that we are saved.

I am told that one may put bis hand to the plow and look back and be rejected. So, when are we saved? I am told we are saved at the final Judgment, that at the great day when the earth and sea shall have given up their dead, when the sheep shall be separated from the goats, that then we shall hear the Great Shepherd say, "Come ye blessed of my Father inherit the King-dom prepared for you from the foundation of the world."

I am told that we are saved when we are baptized in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, that that is a public de-claration, or testimony, of a new life begun, that God witnesses the act of baptism, as He honor-ed the baptism of His only be-gotten Son. That at that time our names are written in Heaven, and we are adopted into the family of the Almighty.

There are other seasons and means by which it is said the soul makes its peace with God, however, these three aforestated ways will suffice to bring this subjct before us. So, now, when are we saved?

A pupil in the early teen age in the grade school listening to an evil voice and slipping, admonish-ed then by a teacher, encouraged by parents, or advised by a friend,

seeing then the vision and lining up with the brave, striking out for life's great objective, that is being saved, that is saved from shipwreck in a swirling world ot wrecks.

Hear me, and I will tell you when you are saved. You are saved when you answer the Voiijp of your own soul, the urge and desire within for peace, for life, for God. All the way from child-hood to old age there follows us an invisable Friend, always seeking our good, often calling us by name, often sh ;eld :ng us from evil, always pointing out the way. Wherever or whenever a human soul regards or listens to that Voice, there and then a new life begins.

To be saved may be the great-est act of life, however, it is not complex, it is glorious in its simplicity. If a boat were drift-ing on Niagara, gaining momen-tum with the current, and a rope w a s thrown from the shore, caught by the parties in the boat, made fast, and the boat would immediately swing toward the shore, when were the boat and occupants saved? The answer is, when they grasped the means cast out for their rescue.

One moment lost, the current swift, roar of death at the great plunge, awful to contemplate, but the moment a strong arm held fast the rope, ah, then, that mom-ent the will of the rope was obeyed, the swift rushing current had lost its power, a way of escape saved the boat.

While picking blackberries re-cently Fred Coates, Homewood Avenue, narrowly missed being bitten by a three foot rattle snake. Sending for his shotgun he blew the reptile to pieces. It is reported that1 three or four rattle snakes have been killed this summer down by the old mill on 1he State Road (Route 8), here all the time we thought all the rattle snakes in Stow had been killed a hundred years ago.

vacation spent at home in Stow, except for a Wednesday evening C. E. picnic enjoyed at a Metro-politan park near Chardon, H. J. S. and family, nrssing church and Sunday School in Stow for the first time in several years, attended a Holiness meeting last Sunday at Camp Sychar near Mt. Vernon, Ohio.

When we hear our friends tell about their 1500, 3500, 6600 and 7500 mile vacation tri^s it makes cur one hundred and seventy-five mile trip see like small potatoes. However, it was outstanding in

Sec-ond, we arrived in plenty of time for the morning preaching serv-ice. Third, the old car required only seven quarts of oil in the one hundred seventy miles, and fourth, we got home before dark same day we started.

Camp meetings are just what their name implies. A camp, a meeting. It takes tents and people to make a camp. And it t skes people to make a meeting. Here there were plenty of tents find lots of people. And a meet-ing is usually held some place. In this instance there were two places. Once place for the chil-dren and the other for the older people. The main tabernacle was p pavilion like affair with cir-cular ends. No central pillars obscured the view of the platform. Large timbers possibly 12x18 inches cross section, held in place by sizeable iron tie rods support-ed •'the roof. A platform for a choir of two hundred vo'ces, two pianos one on either s ;de of the platform, also violins, trumpet and trombone helped with the music. An audience est 'mated at two thousand crowded the meeting

place both morning and after-noon. (the morning collection was over eight hundred dollars). Old hymns were sung that raised the roof and your heart to God. Sermon in the A. M. was by a Rev. Church; P. M. sermon by Rev. Corlett. Both stressed Hol-iness.

But first we must tell you that the children of Holiness people are, in some instances, no d'ffer-cnt than other people's ch'ldren. However, Holy and righteous the'r parents may be there are times when the cirldren may be f i red with the spirit of the Devil. For, at the opening of the morning serv-ices one elderly and good brother in charge, requested that parents keep the ;r offspring under control. I t seems that among other mis-deeds mentioned, some of the youngsters invading dornrtor 'es had filled pails and pitchers with water and then dumped same over the second story bannisters on the innocent ( ?) heads of those below. Reminds us of certain nvn'sterlai students we used to know in Chicago.

We could tell you, about the sermons.How the minister in the A. M. comnared the Holy Spirit

lo the putting of new wine in new bottles, how if placed in old bottles (wine skins) it would break the bottle, the old bottle being the old life, while the new bottle was compared to the new life or life after spiritual birth. In the afternoon the minister dwelt much on the second com-ing of Christ. He emphasised the need of being prepared. He told how only those who were Holy would meet the Lord in the ajr when he came for his true church. Much more, too, he told but at times the "amens" and other ex-clamations of approval drowned out the speaker's voice.

Feeling that it would make us late home, we did not stay for the evening service.
