As an active member I promise to be true to all my duties ; to be present at and to take some part, aside from sitiging, in every Christian En- deavor jirayer-meeting, unless hindered by some reason which I can conscientiously give to my Lord and Master. If obliged to be ab-^ent from the monthly consecration -meeting of the Society, I will, if possible, send at least a verse of Scripture to bo read in response to my name at the roll-call. .- <*.i 168 ^ . 1 4) O r^ o ^ejzedictiort. .«»viiV.V:.>^'j«>ti' '/.:■■.».> '>^j '^jf- .•■ .
