Those who live too far to com’e to the meetings in town we must reach in their homes. Of all our Christians, I believe the ones who live in Pisadera are almost* the most worldly, and because of the revolution, we have been hindered in reaching them. So we started out to try to get them in line again. I do not have a w orker now but have been em ploying one of our Christian boys to interpret into the Guarani, the language of the ignorant people. We visited all the Christian fam ilies in their homes, sang and read and talked from the Word according to the custom. Everywhere we went, we announced a meeting to be held in one of the believer’s houses.

The C in cinnati bell claim s to be easily the largest in America, a s it is 10 feet in diameter, 12 feet high, and w eighs 30,000 pounds. When it w as first hung a number of years ago, its m ighty tones shat tered a number of w indow s in the vicinity, and since then it has only been tapped with a hammer. If rung in the right way, its voice would sound over a radius of fifteen m iles to call people to worship God, but as it is its sound is no louder than any ordinary sm all bell. It is sim ply for show, and of no greater value than any other bell. Is it not a tragic picture of some people’s C h ristian ity? The m ightiest force in the world, which should ring out the praises of God afar is dumb and reduced to the level of some social club or college fraternity! The Cincinnati bell m ight do some harm through its powerful vibrations, but the voice of the Christian would only shake down the stronghold of evil, were it to send forth aright, in the power of God the H oly Ghost. God forgive the dumb Christian, who cannot declare the Gospel! A silent bell, a motor car that w ill not go, and a watchman that does not warn are like the C h ris tian who cannot testify.

W O U N D E D F O R M E Wounded for me, wounded for me, There on the cross He was wounded for me; Gone my transgressions and now I am free, All because Jesus was wounded for me. Dying for me, dying for me, There on the cross He was dying for me; Now in His death my redemption I see, All because Jesus was dying for me. Risen for me, risen for me, Up from the grave He has risen for me; Now evermore from death’s sting I am free, All because Jesus has risen for me. Living for me, living for me, Up in the skies He is living for me; Daily He’s pleading and praying for me, All because Jesus is living for me. Coming for me, coming for me, One day to earth He is coming for me; Then with what joy His dear face I shall see, Oh, how I praise Him— He’s coming for me. — Mrs. Gladys Watkins Roberts.
