striking points on the unselfishness
of our Saviour during His work on
earth. Though often our Lord was
prosecuted or censured for service
rendered, many instances of which

His experience taught the danger OF
over-work through His unselhsh'
ness.

appreciation of our pastor by the
goodly sum contributed to help de-
fray his expenses to Hot Springs in

The services last Sunday was SC

boys were present.

There seems to be an encouraging
outlook for full fruit crop. So
with good garden we can continue
to subsist without biscuit a long,
long time.
