THE PLYMOUTH NOTES.
Help the Sabbath school by paying to-day what you pledged.
Help by paying all you out toword the current expense account.
Help the Senior Endeavorers at their thank offering meeting this Sabbath evening.
Help the Junior Endeavorers by being liberal at their lawn social at Mr. Cook's, Wednesday evening.
Help the Ladies' Aid Society by handing your dollars as fast and as many as you can to Mrs. Loomis.
Help the Good Literature Committee by handing the chairman, Miss Stanley, fifty cents for your own state paper, Nebraska Congregational News, and so kill two birds with one stone; the twenty copies when sold, means $10, toward the debt.
The larger givers to the church debt have all been seen, and it remains to gather up the fragments from the Senior Endeavor Society, Junior Endeavor Society, Ladies' Aid Society, Good Literature Committee, Sabbath school, and from those who are deliquent on current fund account. When these several small sums are paid to Treasurer Lane, the sum total will be several hundred dollars.
A good text for Plymouth Church at this particular lime is, "Owe no man anything."
Not what you can but what you ought to give, should determine the amount of your offering to the A.B.C.F.M. Sept. 26.
"Proportionate giving," which means no business without religion, and no religion without business, will be before the Y.P.S.C.E. on the first Sabbath in October, and again on the first Sabbath in November.
The eight days in October are "days of grace" for paying the debt. No one ought to plan to take advantage of them; the mortgagee has not granted them. The amount of cash wanted and needed on or before Sept. 30 is $3,141.14.
As soon as Treasurer Lane secures $3,141.14 in cash he can begin paying claims, and if that amount is not secured by a certain date, what has been paid in reverts to the givers. If our debts are not paid Sept. 30th they will begin to draw interest and increase Oct. 1st, therefore pay up before Sept. 30th that the treasurer may pay all claims before Oct. 1st.
