"Shall I take you right upstairs to
our room, Mrs. Burton?"
Laurel followed her up' the curving
( airs, across a corridor and into tho
Kelicst suite of rooms she had ever
scu. They were done in n tawny yel
low. In the bedroom the furniture was
ii deep cream, but tho hangings and
even the rug were yellow. There was u
(liaise lounge piled with cushions, and
tlio nanow, low bed had a small golden
mellow canopy, under which were hiddcu
lunniugly shaded lights. The sitting
loom was even more charming, with its
rench windows and its huge, romfort
iblo chairs, upholstered in yellow-flow-ncd
chintz. A glittering whito buth
opened out of the bedroom.
Mrs. Marsdcn stood near tho door
.(ml watched Laurel as she looked
around, and the girl's, impulsive, "It's
perfectly dear," seemed to please tho
lioueekcepcr.
"Mr. Burton's rooms are right next,"

II was a hard headed business man speaking.
He was tired as all of us are of having
the Church constantly asking for money.
He was ashamedras all of us ought to be
that the church should have to ask.
He was telling of what the Stewardship
Plan would do for his Church.
"Most of the leading business
men I've talked to are for it
heart, soul and pocketbook" he
said. "We have often wondered
why the Church didn't get on a
plain business basis of raising
funds. With the Stewardship
Plan there will be no more beg
ging; no more deficits."
Something will happen next
Sunday in every church in your church if
every member recognizes that God is the
owner of his life and earning power; and that
he, himself, is simply a Steward.

Sunday, February 29th will be National Life
Service Enlistment Sunday. On that day the
call will go forth to tens of thousands of young
people to enlist for special Christian Service.
Next Sunday, February 22nd, has been
chosen as Nation-wide Steward
ship Acknowledgment Sunday.
The goal of all the churches is
ten million Christian Stewards
regularly enrolled in the holy habit
of giving of themselves and of
their resources. The money test
is primary to a one hundred per

of world rebuilding.
Will you be one next Sunday to formall'

your labor and your possessions?
Will you 'dedicate some definite proportion
of your income in His cause?
