to writing <strong>the</strong>ir articles. Whenever it is possible, let<br />

religious services be held on Sunday. Make <strong>the</strong>se<br />

meetings intensely interesting. Sing genuine<br />

revival hymns, and speak with power and<br />

assurance of <strong>the</strong> Saviour's love. Speak on<br />

temperance and on true religious experience. You<br />

will thus learn much about how to work, and will<br />

reach many souls.<br />

to missionary ef<strong>for</strong>t. I was instructed that <strong>the</strong>y<br />

would thus be able to defeat <strong>the</strong> purposes of <strong>the</strong><br />

enemy. Let <strong>the</strong> teachers take <strong>the</strong> students with <strong>the</strong>m<br />

to hold meetings <strong>for</strong> those who know not <strong>the</strong> truth.<br />

Thus <strong>the</strong>y will accomplish much more than <strong>the</strong>y<br />

Sabbath of <strong>the</strong> Lord, to make up <strong>the</strong> breach that has<br />

been made in His law. We are to do all that we can<br />

to enlighten those in ignorance; but we are never to<br />

confederate with men of <strong>the</strong> world in order to<br />

receive financial assistance.<br />
