How Firm a Foundation, 1 Lee's favorite hymn, Ho For Caro- ' lina and the Star Spangled Banner were sung. President Wright first spoke briefly on Strnewall Jackson, then made an excellent talk on Lee, setting forth his qualities as a man rather than his general-ship: _^JVlews on Home Missionary ; WorkWhen our Auxiliary was first organized, I was anxious to join. I was interested from the beginning, jpd ter several reasons. First, I saw 'a great field where there was much werk to be done and I felt that we could furnish the laborers. I felt willing to give my -?ork where I did not feel able to contribute dol- ' lars and cents every time. In tact mv idea was that Home Missionary work really meant work and notr eo mueh what Money could do. But I was ignorant an to the laws and'ragstations of Horns wont. Home to me means right here in I.ouiabjtrg' [ and my idea was to bsgitr^nere. pend oar moaey if netieaatry, sad there are times when nothing will answer but money,an.i keep at work until-ike see something accomplished 'But I tee no'wisdom in reaching oat so far, until we have over-come the great evils at oar own doer.- Get ourselves right first and then we < will not only f -el the true Home Missionary spirit, but we will have material to send out in the dark and desolate lands where there ie no light. If we can't see any permanent, tailing Jgood done by ear own work and influence in our home?inspire and give light and hope to the outside world. After we can say "well done" at home?then puah out and on and on like a great wave, I but novel losing sight ef heme. I feel that if eaoh Auxiliary would begin in this way that our work would T be far reaching?even over-lapping. I am lot ao narrow as to think that we ebeuld not lend a-helping band to those who de not soma io teach with say Auxiliary, or even to eemaaoaitice or aeotiona ef the oonntry where the Auxiliaries are poorly prepared to carry _ on the work. 1 know that oar members are alwaye willing to Teepond to any aaeh call. I tea tare there haa bean moeh raal abairty work done that haa navar boon reported.

Of eourse * this is a part of our work but it is . . lecidedly the top pert. We- have never made any effort-do overcome the great evils and orirae that are the beginning and direct esose of all the true suffering and disgrace that now exists in our land aDd are grew Lng to anoh an extent that it seems y ' almost useless and beyond the reach sf human power, to grapple with them.

There has been X ieep and earnest interest manifested in oar meetings, but there has been ' . i no fruits of our labor, apart from relieving the sick and many little things. We need in onr work; men v s well as .women, and if the men ire not in sympathy with the promotion of onr work, we will never mcceed.

To the average member of our society the businesa feature seems . the mast important?not that we think it ahould be. but the collections _?re first, and usually very satiafaotery, _. Wtnle the work proposed and plan- * ned is seldom pushed terward. Our work cannot be carried on without money. It is as necessary to pio- ' i mote the work, as is the great baud that drives the mammoth eagiue wheel.
