Greetings: Your call to our pastor
has made necessary the severance of
those ties which have held us as pas
tor and people for nearly six years
Like vessels on an open sea our lives
have come in touch with his life and
influence for a period Of time and
now the currents are shifting and we
are being separated by what we feel
is an opportunity for our pastor to en-
ter an enlarged field of Christian ac-
tivity.
When M. Westfall came to us his
pleasing personality and earnestness
were early impressed upon our people
in and outside our church circle. All
classes were drawn to him and he
has been received into the homes and
the hearts Of the members Of our COM
munity as a Christian friend and
worker. He has practiced his part
nership with Cod he has done the
work he believed his Master would
have him do. Under his ministrations
souls have been converted; others
have renewed their forgotten Chris
tian obligations.
Those burdened with deep sorrow
and troubles of various kinds have
come to him to pour out their heart
aches and they have never sought him
in vain. Comfort practical aid have
been given and many an unfortunate
has gone from his presence with

A cnmsl.n Stomach.

The stomach OF a camel Is divided
into four compartments. and the walls
Of one OF these are lined with large
cells, every one OF which can be opened
and closed at will by means OF power
full muscles. When a camel drinks It
drinks a very great deal. Indeed. it
goes drinking on for such a very long
time that really you would think that
II never meant 70 leave OF. But the
fact Is that It is not only satisfying
its thirst. but is flling up its cistern
as well. One after another the cells
in its stomach are filed with the water,
and as soon as each is quite full It is
tightly closed. Then when the animal
becomes thirsty a few hours later all
that It has TO do is to open one OF
the cells and allow the water to flow
out. Next day II opens one or two
more cells. and so II goes on day after
day until the whole supply IS ex-
hausted. In this curious way a camel
can live five or even six days without
drinking at all and so is able to travel
quite easily through the desert. where
the wells are often hundreds of miles
apart.

Mr.. Barring II he could speak German.
