ANNUAL WINTER ;MEETING AT WARRENSBURG. 



289 



workers. The Lafayette County Society, still young, has a good strong 

 list of members, and already the papers are seeking to publish their 

 reports. 



Another item of importance is the visiting of these societies, and 

 assisting in the work as well in instituting new work in the counties 

 not organized. 



Now, then, in conclusion, we are glad to meet one another here, 

 and form these new acquaintances. We are happy that we are engaged 

 in such a time-honored work — a work which we love above all others — 

 which brings health, wealth and wisdom ; a work which gives every 

 opportunity to learn and grow. And in this great work if we can only 

 pull together, and work together, and talk together, and reason to- 

 gether, we shall know no such thing as fail. Our cause will grow, and 

 we shall all be enjoj^'ers of this world. To this end we will always 

 labor, and with God's blessing upon us we will continue until he call 

 us hence.
