The crowds were large and the interest good almost from the very start. And although we only held a week, we received 18 by baptism and I understand there are others to follow. There were four added by letter. The church was greatly revived and unified. The outlook for the work at Menlo is encouraging. Last but not least was the kindly remembrance of the pastor by the Woman’s Missionary Society. When I went into my room to retire for the night after the meet ing had closed, my eyes fell on an envelope lying by my lamp addressed to me with the words: ‘“A token of appreciation from the W. M. S. of Menlo.” On closer examination I found within ten dollars. May God bless the good women. How could we get along without them? They were responsible for the gift made me at Lyerly. A. F. MAHAN.,' What is Work-Day for the Orphans? “Why don’t you ask every one to give the orphans of Georgia one day’s work each year?” asked a business man of an agent of an Orphan’s Home. This happy suggestion has been taken up by Orphans’ Homes in sev en states of the South, outside of Georgia in which alone seven or eight homes united last year. People acknowledge the justice of the plea—" One day’s work out of 365 for God's little ones.” Armies of cotton pickers, bands of women sew ing for the orphans, storekeepers giv ing their profits, professional men, railroad men, clerks and every class of people have joined the working ranks witli joy. “‘No child must suffer,” is their song as they search for suffering orphans all over Georgia. “No child must suffer” must be the song of hundreds of thousands of busy men and women and children as they-put in their most earnest labor on Satur day, Sept. 23th, the annual Work Day for Ga. orphans.
