Ill. T. & M. Society.

By G. W. Colcord

DIRECTORS, TAKE NOTICE!

Why is it that, while several of our districts are trying to perform more and more telling service, others appear to be void of interest—almost lifeless? Why is it that, while our secretary has been writing to you repeatedly, you have not so much as replied to any of her letters? Why is it that you have accepted this important office, and yet will not act?
How dare we even stand connected with the work of God, and yet not work? “Cursed be he that doeth the work of the Lord deceitfully”—or, as in the margin, doeth it “negligently.” Jer. 48 : 10. This work must receive our attention; and if we have a brother in office who will not work, reason says, Make the required change.
We intend to have our secretary give in her report at our next general meeting, by districts; thus we shall be able to see how much interest is manifested by each director. Come, brethren, let us pray, and work, and report; and thus “provoke to love and good works.”
