The Snowy Day.

upon a wintry, snowy day; like little
elves they run about, and leap and

with a smile, and think upon a van

One Thing NeedfuI.

The first necessity of a Christian
church is not that it should have a
building to worship in, or a minister
to preach to it, or an organ to lead
its singing. These things may all be
dispensed with. The one thing need
full is that it should have such a Wis
ion of the glory of God as will make
peace and JOY impossible unless it is
doing its best to declare to others the
things which it has seen and heard
