etc—but all must be doing some
work for Jesus sake.

Fellow Leaguers, and ail Chris-
tians, there are only two sides to
this question, there is no alternative
ground upon which to stard. You
must either work for (iod or for;
Satan. "He that is not for me is
against me." If you are not work-
ing for Jesus, Satan is unwittingly
or otherw ise finding mischief for your
idle hands. Kverv day not couse
crated to (iod is spent in serving
Satan. Awake, put on the armor of
(iod, shake off Satan shackles, and
let us go to work. The harvest iu-
dcetl is white, the hungry are starv-
ing, the atllictcd mourn in vain for
sympathy, the souls of the uncon-
verted, arc every day percipitated
into hell.

Collect religious and other good

"Cast thy itrcad upon the waters;

Take the coufereuce collections for
the pastor, that he may not have to
"learn llic Word of (iod to serve
tables."
Make the church attractive, adorn
the pulpit each Sunday.
