In discussing the value of Bible class
work Mr.. Alexander declared that less than
80 per cent of the chapters have taken up
! that sort of service. which he characterized
as the most important that the brotherhood
| can do. He said Bible classes should be
| encouraged because they are the most
direct method of reaching souls, and they
provide a maximum amount of work for
| all. give workers a greater opportunity of
| coming into close contact with all men, and
they prove admirable recruiting ground.
| He also made mention Of the fact that the
| brotherhood itself was founded in a Bible
| class. He showed that the Bible classes in
| Canada had made great progress.
