NEW YEAR'S SOLILOQUY
i AND PRAYER
i
C. P. BOLLMAN
i
i Another year has gone, rolled swift away;
I And still the circling sphere which we call earth
Tells of a day each time the sun appears;
Thus from duration without end we clip
Small parts and call them hours, days, and years.
But Nature, in her mighty sweep, reeks not
Of fractions thus so small, but lives in the
/ (cid:9)
Eternal NOW, with God himself who made
II(cid:9) All things by power of his word alone,
And who the end from the beginning saw;
For, being infinite, he comprehends
I(cid:9) Alike infinity of time and space,(cid:9) '
And knows our every thought, yea, knows before
I(cid:9)
That thought is born of our weak mind !
I(cid:9)
Nor does this even half the truth unfold;
I(cid:9) With him is no beginning and no end !
1
I(cid:9) We stagger at this thought, we only half
Can think ! Amazed we grope in darkness all—
The finite never can the Infinite
,(cid:9)
Contain, nor grasp the things as far removed
I(cid:9) From us as East from West, as North from South !
Lord, awed by thought of majesty divine,
I humbly bow my knee before thy throne:
I(cid:9) Help me throughout this year of grace still free,
To place my hand confidingly in thine,
I(cid:9)
.1(cid:9) To live and walk with thee from day to day;
For how can I, imperfect and unwise,
Choose my own path, or live my life alone ?
I
— The Watchman.

PREFACE
Tins is the twenty-second issue of the denominational Year Book.
As this cause develops from year to year, changes in the general direct-
ory are necessary to indicate the growth of the various departments of
work. During the past year many changes have occurred, a number
of new organizations, conferences, and missions have been effected, and
new fields entered, so that the total force of workers enlisted has been
considerably increased. The extent of this work is clearly shown by
the following pages, which indicate that in every continent, in every
clime, and in almost every important country, this cause has repre-
sentatives, laborers, and facilities for heralding the message which it
bears to the world. Truly the sun never sets on this work. The
present standing and development of this work, as to organizations and
institutions, are indicated below, with the increase noted during 1912: —

The changes in territorial lines are so frequent that it is impos-
sible to issue maps to indicate conference and mission boundary lines
that remain in effect for any considerable time. Such maps have there-
fore been omitted in this issue.
An interesting feature of this issue is -the historical summary, by
a study of which one may obtain a comprehensive statement of the
important events occurring in connection with the development of this
cause during the past seventy years, while the statistical tables enable
one to find almost any important statistical item regarding this work
for the past fifty years.
Directories may be found on the following pages: —
Conferences (cid:9) 5-149
Institutions (cid:9) 150-202
Laborers (cid:9) 203-230
Historical and Statistical Summaries (cid:9) 231-280
Fundamental Principles and General Conference Constitution ... 281-289
For reference to any particular division, see the index, pages 290-294.
