class a week ahead, or by asking all
members of the class to prepare on
each lesson and the teacher to skiU-
fuffy draw the central teaching of the
lesson from the class. The following
suggestions are offered:
Lesson I. Having proclaimed the
laws of the Kingdom and wrought
miracles to demonstrate His power to
administer the affairs of the Kingdom,
Christ sent forth the twelve to propa
gate the Kingdom. He had not only
power over the chief foes of mankind,
sin, sickness, demons, storms, etc., but

Popular Saleslady
Resigns Position
Miss Ella M. Adair, Tor tbe past
twelve years connected with B. L.
King as saleslady, has resigned her
position effective January first, much
to the regret of her firm and hun
dreds of friends and customers.
As a saleslady, Miss Adair is well
known, and quite popular with the ‘ giveThaT power to h'ls’disciples',
public, always courteous ar.d affable j Lesson II. This is the model prayer
in her manner and anxious to please for the dlsclp | es- True prayer is the
her customers. Not only as a saleslady,
but as a collector, she holds an envia
ble reputation and knows how to go
out on the highways and do what
what many other collectors fail to
do—get the money. Sheds a valua
ble addition to the well known firm
with which she is connected, and her
friends regret that she is no longer
to fill her familiar place behind the
counters.
Miss Adair expects to go to Tampa,
Fla., in January, where she will spend
quite a while.
