One even ing at our devotional period, a ret’irned miss ionary - a Sbildi'erJs VJorker — to3.d us something about her work as a missionary. The workers as v;ell as the children enjoyed her stories. The boys and girls were eager to do something and rea3JLy put forth an effort to get things done. I'suppose the moist effort put forth v;as the last evening when we had our social hour, and enjoysd together tlie games and picnic supper. The Wo»?.en - at their mi.ssionary meeting - heard Miss Attie Bostick give a very interesting account of her experiences covering tho last several months before her re turning home from mission wo.r‘k .in Ch.ina, Not every one had the opportunity to take part’in the things mentioned above; but there is one thing in which a.ll liiay participate.

This can be procured only by the indwelling spirit of Christ, which blesses all those v;ho havfe accepted Kim. as Lord and Saviour*. No activity Ciin be fruit ful* of godlike conduct and life, unless first of all we are receptive to this grace of God. Is the story of Jesus too old to have value? The popular excuse .of some, .espec ially certain leaders'in the field of education, for tryJng to get away from the .auth ority of Jes\is Christ, is the claim that'Kis teachings are too old to be true, Tlvoy say that they want somethjj;ig tha.t is new’^ and prove devotees to the cult of chaHv^e, Many peopic have been deceived by this point of view, A thing is not true because it (Continued on next page)
