The League, under the direction of Dr W. I).

In times like these-, we need sSi bet ter understanding of religious work, a greater devotion to it and ' * a deeper consecration for the task that lay before Christian* workers in this troubled world. These arc not times for aimless gatherings, for big" sppwh-hiakiny. and popularity-making, but a time to show ourselves, "workmen approved, rightly "dividing tlu- word of truth". If it is woitli all?ttrc time and money that wc s[H-iul in preparing our young people for the sec ular duties of life, it is certainly worth some time and some money in preparing them for the gigan tic task of effectively and intell igently taking the Gospel of Christ to a wen It 1 -thai- i* -ftr- cHrtr need of it.
