This is the most striking issue of this Bulletin that we have re ceived in a great while—pay atten tion to it!! F '«*—The man who puts God’s business above any other of his affairs. Second — The man who brings his children to church rather than just sending them. Third — The man who is willing to set the right example for his children.

Blessed is the man who trusteth in H im .” 9
