glad that you did your duty. You

herance to christian principle, you
will thank God that you improved
the opportunity, to mould his. char
acter for time and eternity. Per-
haps you will read some grand in

eloquence of heart filled with the
love of God, and memory will roll
back the record of time and you will
see that minister as he was when
you taught him in Sunday School,
a freckle-faced boy, full OF mischief
and sin. What thorn he was to
your patience, but today, as you
hear him preach the gospel your
eyes are dimned with tears of glad
ness, and prayer of thanksgiving
and praise rises from your heart to
the great white throne, because of
the grace given you to teach that
same freckle-faced boy. And these
girls are going to be the wives and
housekeepers of the future homes.
Little ones shall bow at their knees
and say, Nov l lay me down to
Sleep" or "Our Father which art in
Heaven" and as you go into their
homes, a gray haired friendto visit
them, gladness shall swell your
heart. as you find the home Chris
tian home. And then my brother
or sister, you will be glad you
taught the class in Sunday school
in the church or out on the prairie
in the schoolhouse. And now, dear
fellow workers, let us not close up
