But God keeps going. out to the places where men are to be found, and every man in time gets his call. Go ye also—No word is spoken about wages.

The Bald Eagle's Nest. Among birds the home of the. bald eagle is perhaps the most striking, pos- sibly because of the majesty of the bird itself. It appeals to the imagina- tion.

In addition, 31,500 shots and 137,_ 000 kegs of powder were fired dur- ing ur ing 1909 on the three proof -butts attached to the works, In the pre- vious year the figures were 30,000 shots and 90,000 kegs.
