_ Another milestone has been Dassed. At one time we thought 1904 would be s. very difficult year, yet in s. wonderful way we have been guided and helped and so again we raise our Ebenezer, for hitherto hath the 10rd helped us. .

We are thankful for God's good- ness to us. also thankful for our M11 and unselfish mombermlp.

Iwishierecognlae insorneword the splendid work dons by our of-

igenoe have they worked that we may listen with Joy andgladneas to the splendid reports they are to sivc us today. Our hearts go out to them in thanks and appreciation.

We remember this time last year one of our faithful members was present and who in February led the way to the home above, and so plainly showing us it is only s. little way farther to g0. As we remember the wot she did we are reminded that the tasks her busy hands have laid aside are left unfinished for us. Ours is the responsibility, which of these tasks have we assumed? The more earnest prayer? blending the helping hand to some one who is less favored? Tim word of cheer? These were things very dear to her heart. I refer to the late Miss Ada. Inman.

As we stand at the beginning of a new year there are a few facts for us to face and a few questions for each one of us to answer.

God gave His best for me—-His only begotten Son. Christ gave His best to me . . . Himself. Have I siveu through the who. of my church, the best I had to give?

One of the discouraging features of the work of the Woman's Mis- sionary society is the small attend- ance at the monthly meetings. How many meetings have I missed dur- 1m the pest year?

More members are absent, not ‘because of deliberate intention to stay away, nor because of real in- ability to be present. but because of unintentional carelessness and lack of previous planning. Was it really impossible for me to be present et the meetings I missed?

Before many years pass. my op- portunities for missionary service will be over. What am I doing to secure the interest of young people and children to take my place when I em gone‘!

IwishymielIeI-IeppyNewYesr end may our happiness be born of the conviction that this is the best year yet to live and serve. Whether we measmnd up to our opportunit- ies and responsibilities in 100:1 x not the your is gone pest recs and e new yea;- lies before us. Each year es it comes seems to bring us greater responsibilities. Let us ever seek Divine help and guidance to meet our individual obligations.

But Brauxfs dissatisfaction was manifest. He declared responsible quarters had "failed miserably to live up to their guarantees for a iiree election." He arraigned the Red Cross nurses ho aided in marking their ballots as "tools'of Hitler." and charged pollen with leaving named members of three Hitler-lie organizations to help run the plebiscite. The Jled Cross was active everywhere in aiding to get out the huge vote. *

"The impression was credited," said Braun, "that the Saar already is under Nazi rule. Many voters some to me during the day end asked me what use there was in continuing the fight.” The anti- Nazis want the League council to take these things inlb considera- tion when they decide what to do about today's vote, which is merely an indication of what the people desire.

Brauh did not publicly admit de- feat but the fact the "common front" already is charging the el- ection was bogus indicated the group docs not consider itself tri-

(This report was labelled by the anti-Nazi forces as pure propagan- da circulated by the pro-Hltlerite unions and Bralun stated that all the common front leaders were re-

At the some time the French tightened the border restrictions, cancelled visas, and ordered every- One wishing to enter the country to get new ones. This was taken as s sign that prospective refugees were active. _

Five passports ‘of British and American subjects disabpflflmd 110111 rooms in their hotel am‘ later were found in possession of one mun who was arrested. '

The Nazis were jubilant in their anticipation of victory. They put on a taneous demonstration at i"- City Hall shortly before rnid- r , sang the Nazi Horst Wessel sr ~ and Deutschland Ueber Alles. The shouting and triumphant cries were heard for miles around.

Voting was declared terminated at nine p. m.. after a quiet, order- ly poll. carried out under heavy guard ‘of international police and troops, had brought out between 9'1 and 99 percent of the registered voters. Approximately 539,000 bal- lots were ceet as the Saar territory seemed whether 1t wanted reunion with Germany, union with Francs. or maintenance of the status quo, which is government by the League of Nations.

Ballots To Be Counted Tonight

Today's ballots were cast in 800 different election booths in so dif- ibrent districts. scattered over s territory of ‘I40 miles which has e population of 710.000.

The 900 neutral supervisors brought into the territory for the vote (provided for by the Treaty of Versailles) were told the Commission would u tinue in session to meet any emergencies that might arise.

Voters‘ Liberties Guarded

‘me election machinery created by the Plebiscite l‘ ‘ ‘on and the Saar governing commission un- der Geoffrey G. Knox, its presid- ent, moved smoothly throughout the day. The voters walked through snow-covered streets to the polls which were carefully built to ee- sure absolute secrecy. Once inside. hey were not allowed to breathe anything that, even smacked of

‘ ' so much as n whispered "Hell Hitler" had been uttered, the vote ‘would have been mods void. The rulings were strict-

, of being observed or disturbed.

‘rhere were no Sunday newspap- ers on the streets. the Commission having ordered the different jour- noh to refrain from publishing.

There were few arrests. Bix Nazis passed plebiscite day behind the bars because they were caught lest night on the French frontier after scattering nails liberally across the highway with a view to exploding automobile tires of French Sear- landers arriving for the vote.

There was no saying. in the electrically- charged atmosphere. which way either of these elements had voted.
