country has. It is a wonderful »y»
tem of organised effort for farther

such an r ffcfcnisatioa as appeals to
a host of tlnwfhtfil men and enlists
th'-m in its effort* to spread the
truth. One of its strong points is

isters in four years at any eao point
and, acting on this belief, men are
given, as a rule, a new pastorate
each four years. Changes are made

is ibought wise to make them
