Like the BnqnehaBBa river, which in its
accumulation is unide by the lceding of
imaller atraama and rivulets, la the great
Methodist church of today, due of these
branches is the rural-district charge in its
eutirity. In plays an Important part 111
the unking up of OOBgregationi in large
cities.
The Bible has said that to save the ua
tlonwemust save the cities. That is not
exactly true of today, since times have
changed materially In 1,900 years How
arc the mrni o bargee to ba maintained!
Bow are the rivulet 1 to be kept open anil

marks included th following-
It is almost a disgrace to M ?thodisni that
thit assertion should confront the men
who have served the church With such
splendid fidelity.
1 want to see tlm day when H19 Metho

erans we do not consider it in the liiflit of
charity what they owe .them. It should
be done in u spirit of gratitnde.
The society is to be congratulated for
giving the laity a chance to display their
thankfulness to the church, to which they
owe all they posses?.

Wo congratulate ourselves 011 the
achievement of the nineteenth century,
and fay how ureal "we" are. In this con

our debt and our duty.
"We" are Kre.at, forsooth ! not because
of our labor hut because of the sweat, toil
and labor of tba millions who have goue
before us ami 1 ivs u what we have. For
instance, WC pride "ourselves' 011 tha

n.eu who niodo her what she is t They
are tboaa who have gone out anion:; the
masses and toiled and labored: they are
thote to whom th.) world owes Ita debt of

Now our duty as tba result of a century
of hristian teaching seems to be to wrap
