Monday, August 22, 1921 PRES. LADIES' AID MEETS THURSDAY Presbyterian Church Notes The regular meeting of the Ladies' Aid society of the Presbyterian church will be held in the Sunday school room of the church next Thursday afternoon at 2:30. A very cordial invitation is extended to all ladies of the church and congregation. Wednesday evening at 7:30, the regular prayer and praise meeting will be held under the direction of Elders A. Nagle and Geo. Ross, because of the absence of Rev. Walker. We missed a number of the Sunday school workers yesterday since they are enjoying their vacation. Our secretary, Miss Anita Hertzler, is spending a few weeks at Laguna Mrs. Coons and family are enjoying a month's vacation at Anaheim Landing. Others who are away for a short vacation are Mr. and Mrs. S. C. Hartranft, Mr. and Mrs. George Ross, Mrs. N. Dabney, Mrs. H. O. Downs, Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Fay. We were glad to see Mrs. Archibald back with her class after her recent illness. It seemed good to have Mr. and Mrs. Sanford and baby Doris with us again after their long absence. There was no service last evening because of the lecture of Capt. R. P. Hobson at the high school. Altho the choir is enjoying a month's rest, Prof. Askin has arranged for special music on each Sabbath. Yesterday he favored us with a beautiful solo entitled, "The Ninety-first Psalm," by MacDermid. In the absence of Rev. Walker the pulpit was filled by Rev. Hillis of Los Angeles. It was both a pleasure for him to be here, and for the church to greet him, since he was ordained in the Anaheim Presbyterian church nine years ago and here received his commission to preach the Word of God. At this time Harold Pellegrin, one of our own town boys, also was ordained, the two being the only candidates for the ministry in this Presbytery at that time. For the foundation of his remarks Rev. Hillis chose Gen. 11:31. "And then again we are with the opposing forces. This is the thing that stands in the way of Christianity today. The world doesn't consider it real Christianity because there is hardly no difference between the worldling and professor. Just as Abram and his company stayed at Heran — across the river from the promised land to which God had directed them, just so many of us start out all right but are not willing to go all the way with the Captain of our salvation. Let us consider the results: (1) This borderland experience most unsatisfactory. Here we find a most dissatisfied and unsatisfied people. True, there is no real joy and happiness in the life of the unbeliever, even tho at times he may be able to deceive himself and his associates into thinking there is. However, he is not the only unhappy Christians. "Now, these very persons may, at one time, have been just as sincere as you and I in their acceptance of Christ but somehow they have drifted away and the Spirit does not seem as real, as it once did. They have lost their grip on religion and have drifted back. They too, are trying to follow afar off. They want to do right and really struggle against wrong. They find life a continual conflict. How can they expect happiness so long as they are content to live in this borderland experience? " Surely in this world we need most of all to have peace and joy, which is only possible if we will go all the way God designates for us to travel. "The Apostle Paul calls those living in this borderland experience the carnally minded Christians. (2) This borderland existence is full of struggle. If you had contemplated building a home and passed thru no man's land when all was calm you might have found some knoll that you considered an ideal spot for your home, not knowing the impending dangers of having the opposing forces lying in waiting upon either side. But some one familiar with conditions would quickly and easily show you the folly of your choice. "If you want to know what real struggle or battle is, let me tell you, Lord will solve your social problems 4) "The great this borderland e is a life almost dead the Lord. If you will find that the most for the Lord have gone all the time follow up tribes that want Jordan and you w this borderland I you. "The trouble we we are too easily ordinary blessing bestows upon us. "Let us get our existence and go Him. In Canaan and joy that are standing and w Christian experiences above even the fields of the stripe."

It was both a pleasure for him to be here, and for the church to greet him, since he was ordained in the Anaheim Presbyterian church nine years ago and here received his commission to preach the Word of God. At this time Harold Pellegrin, one of our own town boys, also was ordained, the two being the only candidates for the ministry in this Presbytery at that time. For the foundation of his remarks Rev. Hillis chose Gen. 11:31. "And Terah took Abram, his son, and Lot the son of Haran, his son's son, and Saral his daughter-in-law, his son, Abram's wife; and they went forth with them from Ur of the Chaldees, to go into the land of Canaan; and they came unto Haran and dwelt there." The particular part to be emphasized was the last clause, "and they came unto Haran and dwelt there." He said in part: "I have chosen this because I want to talk to you about living in the borderland of our Christian experience. In fact, I think it may aptly be said that we are living in the no man's land of Christian experience. You are all familiar with the term as commonly used, meaning the narrow strip that lay between the opposing forces. Sometimes it was in the possession of one side, again in the possession of the other. No doubt there were frequently many heroic acts committed here and often times this strip was the scene of much bloodshed. In our Christian experience there is a condition that corresponds very well to this. There is a borderland in our experience that is disputed territory. While we have professed Christ and aim to be His followers we are so wedded to the world that we are not willing to go all the way with Him. The result is at times we are working with the Lord's forces, 2) "This borderland existence is full of struggle. If you had contemplated building a home and passed thru no man's land when all was calm you might have found some knoll that you considered an ideal spot for your home, not knowing the impending dangers of having the opposing forces lying in waiting upon either side. But some one familiar with conditions would quickly and easily show you the folly of your choice. "If you want to know what real struggle or battle is, let me tell you, you won't find, it on the battlefield, no matter what awful conditions prevail, but in human hearts. "In our trouble with Mexico a few years ago when troops were sent across the border to bring the opposing forces to terms, who was it that had to take the brunt of those struggles? Was it the people of Michigan or Wisconsin? You say no, it was those residing along the Rio Grande, along the border. "Then let us get away from the border line in our Christian experience and travel all the way with Him that we too may be upon unquestionable territory. 3) "This borderland is a place without much real communion with the Father. "Here at Heran Abram was not where God wanted him to be for he had called him to go farther. The result was there was not much communion or fellowship until he heeded the call and in Gen. 12:8 we find what took place when he arrived at the place, and there he builded an altar unto the Lord, and called upon the name of the Lord." "To any borderland Christian who may be here, yet me say, draw nigh unto the Lord and avoid this life of strife, joylessness and above all this communionless life. "Personal friendship with the..."

If you will observe you will find that those who are doing the most for the Lord are those who have gone all the way. Just follow up the history of the tribes that wanted to settle across Jordan and you will easily see what this borderland home will mean to you. "The trouble with many of us is we are too easily satisfied with the ordinary blessings God so lavishly bestows upon us. "Let us get out of this borderland existence and go all the way with Him. In Canaan we shall find peace and joy that surpasses all understanding and we will find in our Christian experience that we are far above even the smoke of the battle fields of the strife of this world. ESCAPE HOSPITAL; ONE IS RETURNED Thinly clad, R. W. Lythne and Will Clark, drug addicts, escaped from the county hospital immediately after taking their morning baths. Clark was captured a few minutes later by the hospital orderly who found him in an exhausted condition on the railroad right-of-way leading toward Anaheim. Lythne was not apprehended and the authorities believe that he headed for Los Angeles. Clark is said to be in the last stages of tuberculosis and because of his weakened physical condition he could not keep pace with Lythne. The men were arrested last Monday by Constable Jesse L. Elliott and Officer Rogers. Lythne was charged with passing a worthless check for $5 and Clark with vagrancy. The two men were taken to the county jail. Lythne to await his preliminary hearing of thirty days. They were transferred to the hospital for treatment. Both Los Angeles and Orange-co authorities are looking for Lythne, who is charged with a felony. ANOTHER GROUP TO LEAVE FOR Y CAMP Following the return of A. J. Raitt and the group of a dozen boys who made the second Y camp in Santiago canyon, Raitt was today perfecting plans for the third and last of the August camps which will open in the Santiago canyon Tuesday, Aug. 23, and will last until the following Friday. Raitt in his capacity as assistant secretary of the county Y. M. C. A. has had charge of the two camps which have now held their sessions in the canyon where the "Y" maintains a cottage group, including a cabin for general assembly purposes, four floored tents fitted up with springs and mattresses, and a kitchen and outside dining room built to accommodate at least 35 persons. The camp is open to all Y boys of the county between the ages of 12 and 18, the only requirements being that they shall be of good health and character. The cost for the three-day outing is only $3 and a large crowd is expected to take advantage of the final opportunity to enjoy a delightful mountain camp. Under the direction of Raitt, the boys in the earlier camps built a dam across the Santiago creek forming a dandy swimming pool which is only one of the many pleasant features of the camp life which includes a well-arranged program of games, campfire entertainment, and other joys of the great outdoors.
