Ing upon him and his work in his new
field.
Since he has been with us he has been
fountain of inspiration flowing in our

building up OF our church than any pas

in the English language that can ex-
press our love for him. We have been
drawn to him for many reasons. some of
| which I'll mention: First. because he
preached nothing but the love OF Christ
and Him crucif1ed. Second. he followed
Christ in all purity. He exemplified his
Lord and Master In humility. and his
department was Christlike Third, he all
ways had word of inspiration for all
with whom he came in contact. Fourth,
he is one the finest ministers in the Vir-
ginia Conference: he is also an educated
man. one that understands how to trans
late the Scriptures and give a correct and
satisfactory definition OF any passage. SO
that all can understand It. He Is an e1-
pert historian and good teacher.
He Is more like Christ in teaching the
Scriptures than any servant we have
ever seen. HI: is possessed with draw
ing power that but few possess IN these
last days. and the writer OF this letter
caught the spirit, and has been SO won
derfully lifted that he prays all Chris
tons everywhere to greet him and his
dear FAMILY and take the best care Of them
possible. We stand with our hearts open.
ready and waiting to receive him back
at any time.
The stewards feel as If 1t was their
fault principally that he was moved.
They were confident that he would be
sent back and did not deem Is neces-
sary to send petition for his return.
SO. of course. we got left. but we will be
on time next year. We beg the dear
people Of Chester to work with Brother
Sewel1, and we are sure that the charge

Mount Ararat.

A French paper states that two
Frenchmen recently succeeded in
reaching the summit of Mount Ararat,
in Palestine, at a height of 17,17S feet.
The inhabitants of the regions sur
rounding Mount Ararat still believe
that tae mountain is absolutely mac
cessible, thought it is known that as
far back as 1929 the summit was
assembled by Parrot. In 1884 the Rus
sian, Altonswoff, succeeded in reach
ing the summit. Of all the persons,
however. who ever assembled to the
top of the famous mountain none is
better known that General Gordon, .te

New England town. They arc just as
necessary to the vacation resort az
the board of trade is to the city, and
in a certain sense, they fulfil the same
functions,
Ono great trouble with the people
whose duty is to entertain these hosts
of. summer visitors from the west and
sAth and whose livelihood, In a large
degree, depends upon their patronage,
has been that they have been too
prone to look to the railroad compa-
MES to do all their advertising for
them.
THE railroad benefits most by this
INNER travel and it ought to bear
the burden of advertising the country
and the hotels" is the way many Of
them reason.
This is an erroneous idea, and one
that cannot be too speedily dispensed
with. 1t Is the chief duty of the rail
road to furnish expeditions, safe and
comfortable travel to it's patrons, and
to a certain extent it Is TO it's interest
10 advertise, in a general way, tae
Sumner attractions of the territory it
traverses. A glance at the last Of
summer publications issued by the
Boston & Maine railroad and a scru-
tiny Of its annual advertising bills will
show co~nclusively whether this com.
pany is doing its share in the latter
respect.
1t is, however, manifestly the duty
of the inhabitants of the individual
resorts to do a little advertising on
their W account, for they as a com
munity are directly the benefciaries OF
the summer tourist business which
comes to their doors, and in the long
run they benefit much more from it
than does the railroad.
While, as we have said, some OF
the New England resorts have already
organized local tourist associations
and are doing effective work along this
line, we are not SO sure but that
some of the Canadian resorts are
ahead of cur own section in this re.
