For the finest'growth the Bible; •prayer and meditation are necessary food, Yon must have exercise too. Learn to say "Nei" to temptations to do things that will harden your heart or narrow your sympathies; and yo develop your will Have backbone. Learn to shoulder responsibilities faithfully. Take a Sunday School Class. Attend to it faithfully even when it le inconvenient to do so. Take your place and ,do your part in the Young People's Society, and thus grow in reliability and strength of character. In the evening Mr. Lane's text was Hebrew's ' XII:113.
