parents were not Christians and that they objected to her attending Sunday- school. The p a s t o r with deep earnestness in his voice said, “ I c e r t a i n l y do think you should receive the Lord Jesus as your Saviour today.” And with verses of Scripture he sought over the tele phone to show her her need of im mediately accepting t h e Lord' as her Saviour. - As the pastor further pressed her to make a decision for Jesus Christ, she replied that she would come out. to church and perhaps she would ac cept the Lord. He again tried to. get her to give her name, but she would not tell him. He did learn, however, that both she and her friend were twelve years old. She hung up rather sud denly, and Mr. Blake was left wonder ing who had called him. He searched his files in an effort to think who she might be, but to no avail. However, Mr. Blake knew that though her name was not known to him, It was known to God the heavenly Father, and he sought the Lord in prayer to save the one who had called cm the telephone. The days passed by without any further word that would clear up the mystery, and then one Sunday morn ing two girls Were seen sitting side by side in church. Both were about twelve years old. And as Mr. Blake preached, the Lord spoke to one of the girls, and, encouraged by her companion, she walked to the front of the church and accepted the Lord Jesus as her Saviour. It was the girl who had telephoned! How the pastor's heart rejoiced! And the friend whose, life had proved a testimony of her faith was very happy, too. The angels rejoiced also, for an other lost sheep had been found by the Good Shepherd.

Praise Ye the Lord! “Praise Him, praise Him, All ye little children; God is love, God is love. “Thank Him, thank Him, All yé little children; God is love, God is love.”
Have you ever sung this song in your Sunday-school? -Did you know that God wants boys and girls as well as grown up folks to praise Him and thaiik Him? Let us take our Bibles and read, together Psalm 148. You will notice that it is a Psalm of praise. Every created thing from in thé' “heights” of heaven down, is commanded to praise the Lord. Men of all ranks and stations in life are commanded to praise Him. Let us read verses 11, 12, and 13 aloud: “Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth: Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children: Let them praise, the name of the Lord: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.” Did you notice that children are men tioned specially ? The Lord desires praise from the boys and girls. And how great ly they should praise Him, when they remember that the Lord Jesus is the children’s Saviour! While here upon earth, He included the children in His gracious invitation: “ S u f f e r [which means ‘let’ or ‘allow’] little children . . . to come unto me” (Matt. 19:14). Surely, the children should praise ,and thank Him for loving them and dying upon the cross of Calvary for them. I am glad to tell you that in Matthew 21:15, 16 we read that it was little chil dren who v/ere the last to shout in joy ful praise to the Lord Jesus before He went to the cross. These were t h e i r words: "H o s a n n a [which means ‘Praise’] to the Son of David.” This praise of the Lord Jesus displeased His enemies, the chief priests and scribes, but He said: “Yea; have ye never read,
