won’t be a missionary for Jesus,” said “Yes, Lord Jesus. What wilt Thou have me to do?” Thus we are permitted to gradually see, under the Word faithfully pre sented to the hearts and consciences of men from every station of life, the false giving way to the true. The month has brought us so many evi dences of the gracious working of the Holy Spirit that we are constrained to lift our hearts in gratitude and praise to Him who doeth all things well, and for the bless’ed work of intercession in our behalf going up from our many friends as we sow the seed. May the good work continue “till He come.”

COMMUNICAT IONS or COMPANIONSHIPS ? A Popular Number '. ’[(with topical helps) How true it is th at the value of an im portant and oft quoted tex t lies in the accuracy of its t r a n s l a t i o n and on its finer shades «of m eaning! T hus it is that, according to the Am erican S tandard Bible, F irst C orinthi ans 15-33, “evil companionships” rather than “evil com m unications corrupt good morals —not good man ners. So it is throughout this mar velously accurate version—the NelsonfteuSsBible (Edited by American Revision Committee) there are revisions which clarify meanings and throw new light on both text and application. The American Standard Bible text has been •adopted by all leading Colleges, Theological Seminaries, Y.M.C.A., Y.WtC.A., and Bible Schools throughout the United States, and is used by over 13,000,000 scholars from which to study the International, graded or other Bible lessons.

Have we not enough floods of tre mendous energy in public speech? Are we not possessed of more than enough genius of executive manage ment? Do we not need more than anything else just now the develop ment of Andrew’s quiet genius for tell ing other men, man to man, about Jesus? This is our aim in our work among the Mexican converts, to teach and instruct them to tell out the story of Jesus and His love. It was a source of great joy when one of our converts advised us that he was going to give up his work on the railroad and do ranch work in a large Mexican colony where there is no Christian worker. We had secured him a good position with good pay in the city, and also told him he would have the advantage of the meetings here and the fellow ship. His reply is significant: “If I should accept that job I would not be able to reach many of my countrymen with the Gospel. No, I would rather go to the ranch and in my spare time I can proclaim the Good News, and see if I' can win some souls for Jesus.” Our reply was, “The Lord bless you as you go, and later if the Lord will, we will try and visit you to help.” This same brother hopes to go to Mexico when the way is open. Another young Mexican, one of the converts, who was employed in the In stitute, recently left the work here to take the Gospel to Mexico, stepping out by faith in God for his support. On arriving in Mexico he was kindly received by an American missionary 1 and offered a position with salary, and a little later a native preacher offered
