—for therefore came I forth.” Is it not His purpose and pleasure that we should be “ fruitful unto every good work” ? Have we no compassion for the lost? Have conditions changed so that there is now no call for the house-to- house and man-to-man service? Let us give you an illustration of what it is possible to d o : From the Men’s Bible Class of the Church of the Open Door and from the Fishermen’s Club (for young men), a band of men go out to the towns around Los Angeles every Sunday afternoon. They go in autos, sometimes for a hundred miles, carrying their ammunition with them—Testaments, Gospels, tracts and invitations to a street meeting. They spend the day in visiting the homes, leaving the ammunition as it is needed, seeking to bring men, women and children to a decision for Christ. In the evening they hold a street meeting, sometimes following it,'if invited, with a service in some church. Recently both bands united and with two male quartets visited a town of about 5000 people. They called at 1200 homes, had 126 confessions of Christ, and gave away 475 Gospels of John. Many Christians were revived and homes blessed. The interesting incidents growing out of this one visit are too many to relate. This is one way.

The phases of service are so varied as to prove conclusively that women in the home, young girls in school' and business life and men in all walks of life are still reachable and ready to respond to the kindly touch of devoted soul winners. Jews and Gentiles still respond to the voice of the Holy Spirit through His Word. People of every nation have the same sinful, hungry hearts and find peace and rest in the message of the Gospel. On land and sea, rich and poor, old and young, every day are being won for Christ. Men oi all stations of thought, of all stations in life, con fess their need of a Saviour, receive Him and gladly confess Him. If some men and women are doing this work every day, why should not READ THE
