THAT SATISFIED SMILE
It's Broadest at Harvest Time
Poets rh3'me about the "smiling country in the month of
May." But we'd rather see that same country at harvest
time, when the smiles are on the faces of the farmers af
ter their well-earned crops have come in.
It's the same in every business at "harvest" the time
when a man gathers in the returns on his hard work.
Our patrons, using to the full our many facilities and per
sonal service, reap better returns on their investments
time, work and money.

trolling or advising or being advised

taking classes, the making out and
the collection of schools accounts

here and the retiring Pastor told us
that if we wanted a congregation we
had to get the choir down, and there
were only three in the choir! And it
was nearly as had as that: 1 on can
imagine what that "little handful

Put thank God all that is changed
now. In the past the Missionary

ligurcd in the politics, the commerce
and the social life of this fine city
and too they have been faithful to
our church and cause and have rep

ll" interest in religion and yet. mo
of them admit they were hrougm up
in the Sunday school. The children
that are turned out into the street
or sent home, or called home by un
thinking parents (instead of being
taught the church service; and that
Sunday school is not church) gen
erally have no church habit. Some
parents that excuse their children
from church can whip or coax them
into it when they are older, but the
cases are rare. Now with such a con
dition hens it is the surprise of all
and of those affected in particular
that there are English and Ameri
can families that have turned from
darkness to night, from their idols
to God. from the wy of the Sabbath
breaker to the ways of Hie saints.
Some who had not crossed the thrcsh
hold of a church for years are now
active members. Oh my, what God

The facts stated in a few words
and in definite form are Just these.
Our church in all the years never
seemed to get any bigger or smaller.
the membership always about the
same, the attendance about the same,
except tin some "high" day. The in
come was a hour, the same so that ev
erybody just knew the Missionary
Board had to make good. Within IS
months the membership bits increas
ed 500 per cent! unbelieveable! The
income has increased more than 0O
per cent. We used to have an income
el SiijO per annum l;v subscription.
now our income is over ",000. v e
used to take up 111 the hu inlay col
lection ?l or $5. now we take up
not less thun $20 or ?o0 and some
times over $ i. On a recent Sunday
we had JSLDG in the collection. All
of this of course has had a convert

the people cannot buy the merchants
cannot import. There are deep lines
on the faces of the honest merchants
as a result of a great commercial cri
sis. Yet another result of the life in
the dry bones, the shaking of the
ruts, is the demand for a new church.
You ask how that is since we .have
such a beautiful well appointed
building. Well these, are the reasons:
The two city congregations of Meth
odists, the English-speaking and the
Spanish-speaking built this church
as a joint property, but now the
Spanish people feel that we are tak
ing up too much room and we feel
they and ourselves need more, so
our English-speaking people have re
solved to draw out and build a
church. It was the wish of the Bish
op that we should uo this is possinie.
Twelve months ago it looked impos
sible. But on the lull of April we
bought a property next to the Uni
versity of Montevideo, for $;'0.000.
seems like a fairy tale, so wonder
fully -did the Lord help us. On the
day that we had to pay for the deeds
we gathered in cash $20,000 and I
had to borrow $10,000 to meet the
rest. How God .ent a man along to
lend us that $10,000 is still another
story of wonderful providence. .Last

lady put $500 into my hand and a
