to come may do so without any further

VIC will get our books and take up our

The Picture Study class is assured
and will meet Wednesday morning, 10

meeting for the girls will be Monday
evening, October 9TH. These classes are
not exclusive but open for anyone who
subscribes to the terms
The Bible questions for the year will
