NICE AND CONVENIENT.

By H. A. St. John

I WAS at the house of the director of Dist. No. 3. He showed me an arrangement in his possession for keeping our various tracts, pamphlets, and bound books, in an orderly and systematic manner. It was a book case with compartments or pigeon holes for each of our various tracts and pamphlets, with shelves for bound books, with an appropriate place for blank reports and other T. and M. Society records. Each pigeon hole had a printed label beneath designating the title of the publication there found, thus enabling you readily to put your fingers on anything you wish without fumbling over a large pile promiscuously thrown together.

Not a better set of publications can be found in the world than ours, and we desire to see them highly prized by all who love the truth. Those who apply themselves with diligence to do their work correctly and orderly, are the ones to fill places of responsibility and trust, however small the position may seem to be. Magnify your office. Do you ask why we write this? Because there are other directors and librarians in Ohio and elsewhere. No more on this point at present.

H. A. ST. JOHN.
