tute of religious in-struction, while the saloon was doing its deadly work—drag-ging down the home and the tone of the locality, degrading anddamning the souls of fathers and brothers. The planting of the mission seemed to work a mightychange among the people, and a change in every importantsense,—physically, morally, and spiritually. A new light wasseen, and a new life imparted to lives of little promise, but timehas proved them to be of sterling worth. I have never in all myministry witnessed such a change wrought in a similar com-munity in so short a time and one of such permanent char-acter. This is to be attributed to the policy of the Mission, andthe nature of the ministry fulfilled in the homes of the peopleby Mrs. Croft. . . .

Yours Very Sincerely, G. B. M. Clouser.Paul H. Bowman.
