Industries and wealth of the city. II is
entirely appropriate THAT their tombstones

burial place must be found for the future

The Prayerful Combat


The interview lasted far into the
night, and finally a modus vivendi was ar
ranged, under which the two combatants
agreed to appeal to the throne of grace
in their differences and abide by the de-
cision of the Almighty. 1t was a test of
prayer like that of Elijah and the priests
of Baai on the summit of Mount Carmel
and the "meenister'' prayed first
