larger desk, for the teacher. All was quiet and orderly.

Here I have a package of envelopes. There are fifty-two envelopes, one
for each Sunday in the year. Each envelope is divided in the center. On
one side I read, "For others." On the other half I read, "For
ourselves." I need not tell you that these are church envelopes. In this
way, this systematic way, we support our local church and pay to
missions. We like to have the girls and boys, as well as older people,
use these envelopes. The financial secretary of your church is just as
willing to keep the records of young people who give but five cents in
each side of the envelope as he is to keep the account of the man or
woman who places five dollars in each side of the envelope every Sunday.
You see we want you to grow up systematic and orderly in all your
religious life. Our Master is pleased when we do our religious duties
"decently and in order."

MEMORY VERSE, _I Corinthians_ 16: 2

"Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in
store, as God hath prospered him."
