of appeal that sometimes brought thel
fears TO his own eyes, he was unsparins

apiece TO lcsus Christ.
"Nol criticize me because YOU thiull
don't attack the great social and eco
uonic problems of the minute. Wait
awhile. Civic pride and municipal own
crship and all these things are good
things to scrmoni1e over to people ial
times of health and promise; but wnenl
your ewes grow dim and the breath rat
Ties in your throat, you want some ouol

upon the benches and sobhed aud wept
aloud Roth OF the men looked as ia
they had seen more prosperous days
and both, for long time, refused 10
receive any comfort at the hands of per
sons who kuclt and prayed beside them.
A sprinklng of the afternoon
crowd. in response to query, lifted
their hands in sign that they had
never before been to the tabernacle.
