sharers in this task of divine recon-
struction, and fulfilling of Gods pur-
poses for the human fanSily, it be-
hooves us TO do our utmost by prayer
and effort to repair the breaches which
human waywardness has wrought in
that instrument which He has de-
signed, and through wIsich He has cho-
sen especially to work ont hunlanity's

God, the One, Holy, Catholic and Apos-
tolic Body of Christ. For until these
wounds are healed the church must

Ghost; therefore we are under solemn
obligation to use it for His glory.
III. Since God the Father and
Jesus Christ work, it is incumbent
upon all to work, and the man who
Will not work should not eat.
~. God hates the greed that moves
men to dishonest methods in order to
get rich. His judgment shall fall upon
such.
V. True education will lead one to
Christ. The one only book which tells
about him is the Bible. No one can
call himself educated who is ignorant
of the Bible.
VI. God rested when His work of
creation was done. On this basis He
has established the law of labor and
rest. The obligation to cease from la
Dor is that one may remember God.
VII. The church is an organism as
the human body In order that there
may be real helpful cooperation there
must be membership in that body.
VIII. Jesus should be welcomed as
a guest into every home. He is an ex-
ample of IN ohcdent son in the home.
TX. The most important question is
rot ''Who is my neighbour but ITO
whom can I be a neighbour" Being

need help and rendering such help in

tians will show proper loyalty to the

in need.
Packages OF soda crackers. canned
goods and various kinds of eatables

suggestion of Miss Alexander, principal
of the school. and piled upon the
desks for distribution to those in need
