MISSIONARY LIFE 
you have practical farmers, and horses and oxen 
that are broken to work, and no one to humbug 
you. Joseph Gomel.

MR. Gomel’s appeal to sunday-schools. 
As for opening new schools, I shall not open 
any until I am fully persuaded that it is right to 
do so. 
I can not understand why it is that so many of 
the Sabbath-schools in America are so fearful to 
undertake to support a school here. Thej^ should 
give their money and their prayers at the same 
time; and if they have faith like old Granny 
Aunt Kate — the old lady received into the church 
hore at dedication — they would have no fears. 
She is over eighty years old, and walks out to 
Flickinger Chapel and attends the six o’clock 
Sabbath-morning class. It is a wonder how she 
gets her living; yet she always wears a smile,^ 
and seems to trust God for everything. 
But perhaps the people fear they will not be 
able to raise the money. Bid not Br. Cullis — one 
man — buy grounds and put up a very large hos- 
pital in Boston, on faith,— by trusting God for 
the money? Will not God perform all that he 
has promised ? I believe it to be sin not to trust 
him.
