To continue the meeting. next he
reads an extract from the Christian
Herald. and then they all sing Throw
Out the Life Line when most OF
them haven't enough energy to throw

time to close the meeting. and the
leader says: I hope all have taken a
part who wish to. and We will now
sing one hymn and then close" (Ap-
plause.)
Have you ever heard anything like
that!" asked Mr.. Sunday. and. con

what that means? Suppose We in
suited or killed Ambassador Bryce of
