Well, here we are again, back in
the noisy world after a week of quiet
and a complete case of voluntary
amnesia. Purposely forgetting what
has happened and living in the joy of
the present. Oh, that it could con.
tinue. That's a little what Heaven's
going to be like, '
/;
Here are some “Golden Nuggets”
from our speakers at Montrose.
“If you're to big for a small place,
you're too small for a big place”.
“Everybody wants peace, provided
they get the biggest piece”.
“Some of us don’t believe in back-
same’.
was discussing the temptations of
ministers. One man said his chief one
was impatience with the lame and slow
growing sheep. Another man wanted
to know what he could do about them.
With a wise look, Mr. Turnbull said,
“I should like to know what kind of
food they are getting”.
At our table was a young lady from
Paterson, N, Jy the daughter of the
pastor of the Italian Methodist church
there. She runs a beauty parler In
the city, and everyone who visits her
shop receives a word of testimony
from her regarding her Savior. Every
one receives a tract, and is shown the
way to eternal life. And her shop is
the most prosperous in Paterson. this
proves that it pays to be a Christian
even in business.
Have you no words? Ah, think again,
Words flow apace when you complain,

spent, ;
To Heaven in supplication sent,
Your cheerful song would oftener be
“Hear what the Lord hath done for
me”.
