THINGS

saw Lincoln assassinated, last night at
the Presbyterian church spoke on How
to Do Things. He was formerly a
commercial traveller, but gave it up tor
Christian work. He built the big
Bancro't tabernacle in Kanses City and
told of his experience in doing things
himself. The secret of success in
church and Sunday school work is get
ting out and doing things oneself, not
leaving" it for others. The Christian
needs to look himself over and see if he
is cinsisent. Too manv iuat denend
upDu their faith. There must be more
work. While the work is different in a
place like Albany from Kansas City,
