’/j-JJ Facts That Concern You
;he time is here when we can and will ,
do so. The fact that several of our
faithful workers and supporters
have moved away or passed to their
great reward makes it imperative that
those of us who remain increase our
efforts to keep our work from suffei--
ing. If each one of us will be just a j
little more faithful and liberal and I
regular, there is no reason why wc j
cannot continue to grow in usefulness I
of the Cause of Christ in this commu-
nity.
