Perhaps there are some who would

our Union is making. For three suc
c?ss:ve Sunday's our union has been
10 per cent on all points. Caa we
do more than that? I say yes. By going
out and trying to get other boys and
girls into the Union, and then helping
them all we can. In this way someone
might decide to give his or her life to
Christ. And so prove a wonderful
| blessing to the older members of the
Union. Again I say we can do more
than just be 100 per cent members
