The conference of this Iinitit ministers of Vermont, which in being held in Burro, was opened at the First Baptist dirndl last evening. About 70 milliliters, repre senting most of the Baptist societies in the state, are taking advantage of the hosnitalitv of tlio local church to get to gether and discuss their problems and ideals, with the idea of mutual benefit to all. The oiotrram last evening was started with a short and prayer service led by liev. Stanley V, Reynolds of Passumpsic. At the closo of this service Kev. George If. Holt extended a hearty welcome to the guests in behalf of thn local church and bade them consider themselves en tirely at home in the houses to which they have been assigned, assuring them that such was the' wish of each of the hosts London, Dec. 14.

The German official report of yester day, claims that "approximately two English divisions were annihilated" dur ing the retirement, but this is considered here an exaggeration. Accounts from Athens and Saloniki say the retreat was curried out in an, orderly manner and without heavy losses. By the destruc tion of railway bridges and roads and by stubborn rear-guard actions, the Bul garians were kept at a fairly safe dis tance. The question now arises whether the Bulgarians and Austro-Germans in tend to follow the British and French into Greece, and what action the Greek government will take should they do so. The impression gained from Athens dispatches is that neither the Bulgari ans nor the Turks, who also are report ed to have arrived near the frontier, would be welcomed in Greece, and that, therefore, if it has been decided to fol low the entente allies, the task will be undertaken by Austrian and Germans . 500 GRANGERS MET IN BURLINGTON State Master W.

With an attend ance of 500, the Vermont state grange formally opened its annual session in armory hall to-day. Belated delegates arrived this afternoon. W, X.

Msri.n D J 1 ed foreign secretary of the American Baptist Foreign Missionary society. The subject of Mr. Robins' address was, "The Resources of the Kingdom of God." The two most powerful resources, according to the speaker, are principles and personality. It is personality, backed up by honest principles, that is the mov ing factor for good in the world to-day and will always be aa long as the world exists. Considering next the less worthy factor of money, the speaker said that the evidence of statistics showed that there is plenty of money available for the cause if only motive enough can be brought to bear to secure its use. He cited instances where in Canada seeming ly impossible sums have been raised time and again to aid the cause of Great Brit ain in the war and suggested that if an equal amount of enthusiasm could be aroused over the work of spreading the gospel the lack of money would be a thing of the past. Men and women to carry on the work are also plentiful if the right kind of mtluence can be brought to bear to get them interested. In regard to missionary equipment the speaker called his audience's attention to the fact that the American Ila'ptist so ciety is one of the largest missionary societies in the world. Xative churches in non-Christian countries are also to be counted among the resources of the Chris tian faith. The great world movements going on at the present time are likewise aiding by the opening up of new and hitherto inaccessible worlds to American and Christian influence. The two real resources, however, according to Mr. Rob ins, are prayer and a consciousness of the presence of God. Without these two nothing else can avail At tho close of Mr. Robins' address the next speaker, Dr. Samuel G. Xeil of Phil adelphia, was introduced. His address was in the nature of an evangelistic ser mon. "V e must preach and obey the gospel, but above all, we must make it attractive," said the speaker. A large proportion of the people outside of the churches to-day are there because they have a misconception of the true mean ing of tho gospel. The frivolous regard it as a thing which does away with all the' enjoyments of life; the business man regards it as an obstacle to money get ting, and the young regard it as some thing requiring a large amount of self- saenhee with little, if anv, return. It is the duty of everv Christian man and woman to show these people their error and to speak and live the gospel so that it shall become attractive to all. Man is always attracted bv bcautv. We must not only give him truths, but give him attractive truths to arouse bis interest. The primary purpose of Christianity fa the redemption of man. but vou cannot redeem man with uglinesa. the eaker's way of nutting it. Ijvmir due, stress on the beauty of the spoken word, the doctor said that the real way to make the gospel attractive was to live it in such a manner that your life should be an everlasting example of it beauty A kind word will jo farther than tin oei argument, ana a anuie or a eons will win more men to Christ than sar casm and a whining voice. One peculiarity of the true work of the gsw! is that it never fail tn trans form the worker, and if a man reallv ivra the life of a Christian be cannot fail to 1 afTVted bv ita beaut r and icnce have greater influence over liia associate.
