An African Samuel

In the Swiss Romande mission at Lorenzo Marques, Portuguese East Africa, a teacher explained to her black but bright pupils the parable of the kingwho invited people to his feast. When she finished speaking, one of the boys who had long seemed near to the kingdom, came to tell her that he wanted to follow Jesus. Then a smaller boy said the same thing. “Have you felt for some time that God has been calling you?” asked the teacher. “No,” said the little boy, “it is only to-day; but I listened right off when he called.”
