HANDLING’ DIFFICULTIES * SUCCESSFULLY | We are sometimes faced with the question of, just what we would do, in this or that case, and too often do we criticize those who are in these eituations because they handle them differently than we waquid handle the same altuation, forgetting that if we were under the same diffleulty, we would be forced to act the same, or worse, Truly, there are several ways of handing difficulties, but the one who Ss succeeding in sple of the difficuls tes, is handling his the best, To obtain an education, is a diffi- culty, when one has to work for it. Yet, those who gain the education, and other recogni.ions along side of, or in connection with the education, are spoken of as not only handling the dificulty but handling it puccess- fully.

Good success, how: ever, Is to accomplish a worthy ob- jective vet before us, The receipt for auch a task Is giv- en in Joshua 1:8, Here we are told how to achieve it. Evangelism {s the worl of win- ning men to Christ, The Missionary fs the instrument through which God working to evangelize the world. Sucessful evangelism in Mission fields depends upon the character of the agents employed. They must know God experimen- tally, they must have a knowledge of God’s Word and a dominant pas- sion to save the lost. They must also have implicit faith in God and plan for human redemption, THOUGHTS: The spirit, passion, and method needed for auccessful evangelism comes from God. Successful evangelism is winning soula not gold. An evangelist is a alnner saved from the fire of hell, burning with the fire of love to pull men out of the fire of destruction. This kind live on earth but their lives are ruled from above. St. Matthew C. M. E. Ch. REV. C, M. HAWKINS, PASTOR J. L. GOODMAN, Reporter.

Rookes, pastor of New Hope Church, Chanute, came to our rescue in a needy time; and we feel deep in our hearts that he put forth every effort through the power of God to make the Gospel plain to men and women; truly we know that God was with him. We learned to love Rev. Rooks and wife, for their Christ like spirit, shown among us; for his striving to save men's souls; he was both kind and considerate. His wife was very faithful and the members and friends who came with him during the services. We are sure they had the meeting at heart. At the close we had two candidates for baptism, and four restored; the younger people who had grown weak were strengthened with the courage to take a new stand for Jesus. Independence News.

That was when Captain Kidd of the Spanish Main succeeded in electing lots of folks to a position in Davy Jones' Cabinet—and they all were elected on the same plank. Instead of standing on the plank they walked it. Captain Kidd conducted his plrational adventures in a pirate schooner—he boarded boats that were transporting treasure—captured the cash and made the passengers walk the plank. Kidd got so much treasure that he deposited it in banks all over the seven seas. Only his banks were the banks of bays on deserted islands. And when Kidd was killed —nobody knew where he had his stolen coin cached. And ever since then people have been seeking the secreted gold that Captain Kidd hid.

That treasure is the electric service—that's always awaiting your call—and the only call it needs is your finger on a switch. It can cook your meals—better than you've any idea. It can sweep your floors, wash your clothes—and iron them, too. It can heat your water—it can even save your eyes by your using it more to lighten dark corners.
