Everyman’s Hut
ust as I am —Thy love unknown [as broken every barrier down; low to be Thine, yea, Thine alone, ?! Lamb of God, I come.” len these lines appear in print, r as we can judge, only memories e men of the Second Echelon will ft with us, — memories which we ? will live long in our hearts. The whom we have got to know intifly, who have been regular freters of the Hut not just for the (if tea or coffee, but for the sing- > and the nightly Scripture por'and Gospel talk. We would not imin if we did not feel just a liti it pleased that our efforts have appreciated, but we are not here praise for ourselves. Anything -we can do for the men well, that ’ at we want to day, and all we ask at they in return will give us Mittle time every night for the , ig of the Word of God and the j panying talk. And what a fine A fellows we have met. Outward rances count for little, but it Got take long to get beneath the :e, and to find the real man. jr . all is one thing for which we are 0) thankful, and that is, that no r how many men have been in at, or what their condition, never we found them wanting in conation or respect, and always have hown courtesy to the lady helpid real appreciation of all that ISeen done. But chiefly are we Ifflul for the results obtained on yritual side of the work, and DE the men will no doubt be bl for the rest of their lives for t ' on stiny that guided their steps & -^--yman’s Hut. “God moves in a ious way, His wonders to per(id He can make even the most 1 T wars to •be just an instrun execute His will on earth and ifYSy blessing to individuals in the —»n of their souls, and.as we look W( j ver our experiences with the Sharp we can truly say, “Praise jl da/m Whom all blessings flow.’ jetic ay was a bus day, and many es( j a , were in the camp, availing WOB lves of the last opportunity of and relations, and, just hj.it us say that it is a privilege ’’ to make their visits , jSant and happy as we can. The ’’ was wet and many men were r e, so that the attendance was serf ge, but the singing showed no ne .‘of deterioration. Mr. Blair’s )D# Mill
text was “How shall we escape if we neglect so great salvation?” and the message, we trust will remain in the memories of the men and cause them to think of their condition and their attitude towards God and His Son. The message closed with the hymn: “Just as I am, without one plea.” And now we can just commit the men to God —many, no doubt, we shall not see again upon this earth, but we remember them all in prayer and look for a safe journey. Mr. Blair expects to enter hospital for removal of his tonsils this week. We wish him a speedy recovery and an early return to carry on the work with the Thirds.
