The West Virginia Colporteurs’ Institute

THE colporteurs’ institute for West Virginia was held in Parkersburg, April 9-19. This was the largest institute ever held in the State. The field agent and other conference officers had been doing very faithful and successful work, and an excellent company of consecrated men and women was in attendance to prepare for the Lord’s work. Among the number were two or three school-meet them on every hand. Knowing this, how careful should we be to have them well armed to meet his assaults. Not only so, but we should teach them to be “temperate in all things.” This means not only temperate in eating and drinking and dressing, but also in reading; for through reading the enemy often approaches the citadel of the soul and breaks down its defenses. Mothers and fathers, guard your children’s reading.
