ROCKETELLER on CHURCH WORK

CLEVELAND Ohio, Oct. 1l.-John d.
Rockefeller delivered to-day his farewell
address to the Baptist Sunday school. Of
which he has been superintendent for u
number Of years. This was rally day at
the school, and Mr.. Rockefeller postponed
his trip to New York 80 that he would not
miss the exercises.
He spoke to the Sunday school to-day
with great feeling. saying:
Il want to thank you all for what you have
been to me this summer and to Mrs. Rookie
Teller. want to thank you for keeping
me in your school all these years | hear

tnue the good work in the church and grow
UP to be Christian men and women. | am
glad that my work has been in the Sunday
school and the church.
ain a church like this people are always
coming in from all classes of society and all
associations in life. have been observing
these classes in our church this summer
with interest. We have them from the
saloons. men who have been accustomed
to spending all their time in those dens. and
we see what Gods drinks are doing toward
transforming these men.
IL remember particularly one or two men
who came in the last year from the saloons.
You do not know with what kindness and
heartiness they were received. II | were
an ungodly man and should come in this
church and see how they are treated II seems
that an exhibition Of this sort would make
an infidel turn Christian.
II am just going to say farewell. But may
7 say one word further Many have been
coming to us without the training of the
schools or of Christian homes. Come into
the church with the idea of bringing some
thing in. When business men organize a
company for manufacturing, each con-
tributes some money to help in the work,
Now we may not all be able to put in money
but it seems to me that each should bring
something into the school, old, young. rich
and poor alike. all should make their con-
tributions OF some sort.
"A business man does not expect divi-
dends if he does not put something into his
business. and we cannot expect great work
as our dividend IL we do not put something
in. God help us to put something in"

not be spared at this time from the country,
The negotiations have not even reached
the point of looking about for underwriters.

the loan commission that the special in

become effective on Oct. /. The surplus
