't'he'y had made several new ventures ip their home church and had barn well received. Mr. Snell saw no dis- parity between wholesome fortes of constructive recreation and the more formal types of Divine service. The ultimate aim of all such work, how- ever, was to enlist young people in the service of Christ. In this they had recently been giatilied by the addition of twenty-one members to the church from among its Own 110(1113, and there were still nine others who had the question under i'1-rious consideration.
