The Home Mission Society held a
most interesting meeting with Mrs. T
4. Collins Monday afternoon. Cuban
| schools was the subject discussed, auG
many facts regarding home mission
/ ork in Ybor City, Key West and Tam
pa, Fla, were brought out. This
work consists of schools for the poor
Cuban children in these places, which
are mainly maintained by the Home
| Mission Society. To these noble women
who are laboring to uplift them, We
would say:
"A child's kiss on thy lips shall make
the glad,
A poor man served by thee shall make
thee rich
A sick man helped by thee shall make
| thee strong,
Thou shall be served thyself by every
sense,
| OF service which thou renderest."
! When the digestion is all right, the
action OF the bowels regular, there is
a natural craving and relish for food.
