Have You Read It?

By M. J. Cottrell

IT seems to me there isn't much in this week's paper

Why not?

Well, there is nothing from Bro. White, nothing from Bro. Andrews, not a word from Bro. Cottrell, and some how it seems to me that there isn't much in it any way.

Have you read what there is?

No, I've read part, and only glanced over the rest.

Well, just sit down and read it all, carefully, and then see what you will say.

(Two hours later.) Well, really, I am surprised! There is something in the paper after all. I've read it all through now, and to tell the truth I feel quite refreshed. The conclusion of the Memphis Discussion is very interesting, and cheering, and the Report from Wisconsin is excellent. Bro. Bates' report, too: What a nice time they had celebrating the Fourth. The paper is really worth reading. One don't know what there is in it before carefully reading it.
