We learned in our Sunday School
lesson on Sunday one of the causes
of Saul’s failure to execute God’s
command, he was afraid he
not be popular or well spoken of by
the people whom he ruled. Saul
stooped to the desires of near rather
than the voice of God.. We wonder
how many Sauls we have in our
churches and Sunday Schools today
who pray for guidance and direction
in the work and fear to do that which
they are told is right for fear they
might not be popular and well spoken
of.

We took in Maytown, on Saturday

HIM who knoweth and doeth all
things well.
The lovefeast held at the Church
of the Brethren, at Green Tree, on

vests more prospering for they have
