146 THE GOSPEL AND THE PLOW 



hear His voice, gather up the fragments that remain 

 that nothing of human life or of material that builds up 

 human life be lost. But rather that it be conserved to 

 help to bless all men everywhere. When we save India 

 from these incalculable losses we are helping to save one- 

 fifth of the human race. A task great enough, and worth 

 while enough to stretch to the limit the best America has 

 and cause us to pray anew : The Harvest truly is plen- 

 ifeous, the laborers are few. Pray ye therefore the Lord 

 of the Harvest that He — God Almighty, Himself — will 

 send forth the laborers, men and women willing to work 

 out His will, properly equipped with all labor-saving de- 

 vices, tractors, plows, harrows, thrashing machines, that 

 India may be one of the brightest jewels that ennoble 

 the glorious Crown of Him who once wore the Crown 

 of Thorns.
