# New Mission President

<!-- page:882 -->

882 IMPROVEMENT ERA. So enter that each day thou mayst become more learned and thoughtful. So depart that daily thou mayst become more useful to thy country and mankind. Let us so enter upon our duties each day that we may become more learned and thoughtful, and so let each day depart that we shall have done some kind act, that some one shall be better and happier for our having lived that day. Logan, Utah. New Mission President. Elder Charles H. Hyde, one of the counselors of the Pioneer stake of Zion, and the eldest son of Charles W. and Cecilia Funk Hyde, has been called to preside over the Australian mission, to relieve Elder C. Alvin Orme, who has been honorably released to return home. Elder Hyde was born in Salt Lake City, Utah, on the 3rd of November, 1861, and has been an active Church worker all his days. For a number of years he presided over the Y. M. M. I. A. of the 7th ward of Salt Lake City, and for fourteen years was president of the fourth quorum of elders. He has filled a former mission to the Southern states, during the years 1902-3. When the Pioneer stake was organized, in March, 1904, he was selected as second counselor in the stake presidency, in which capacity he has served until the present time. For many years he has been a worker in the typographical department of the Deseret News, being a first class printer. He is a man full of faith and energy, and has a heart full of sympathy and compassion for his fellows. His judgment and discretion fit him to be a good presiding officer, and a valuable man for the work which he has been called upon to perform. He and his good wife, who has been called to work with him, left for their field of labor, July 6, 1911.
