has been SO blessed that the kingdom of
God is filling the earth.
An example of successful fishing for
men was given by Washington travel
ing man, VINO has told this incident:
During a morning conference with "a
BODY OF travelling men, L wondered
whether the men were acquainted with
one whom | had been representing for d
number of years, the Lord Jesus Christ.
SO ] said:
Men, We have been talking about the
goods We sell explaining how difficulties
and obstacles may be encountered;
wonder how many of you know anything
about the great firm whose goods are
as pure as the morning air, and in whose
dealings there is no varlableneSs nor
shadow of turning. How many of you
here are acquainted with the Lord Jesus
Christ? How many of you today have
ever thanked Him for all the blessings
that have been bestowed upon YOU and
for all the success you have achieved2
Have you ever thought that you could

families intact. that you are making con-
siderable money, and that your health
has been spared to yOu?'
If ! should ask you to stand up for
the American flag, every man would leap
TO his feet. and yet the American flag
does not amount to near SO much as free

how many of you are ashamed of the
Master who has been good to us
wonder how many here today would be
ashamed even now to stand up and con-
fess the greatest leader that this world

Seven of the fifteen travelling men
stood up and confessed Christ; one of
them said that he was born near the
nome town of Robert G. Ingersoll, and
that he had thought that Bob IngersolIs

This is only one way of doing success
full work in fishing for men. Every
Christian must learn the way which is
best for him, and God will bless him in
this.
