July is one of the C. L. S. C. vacation months.
“Memorial Day,” Sunday, July 13. Read Paul’s wonderful words about “Charity” in 1st Corinthians, xiii.
Salutations—sincere and abundant—to all the members of the Circle who have opportunity this month of meeting in the green woods or by the lake-side at one of the “Summer Assemblies.” Hold “Round-Tables.” Talk and plan, and then report the new things you think of. If you can not go to any of the great Assemblies, hold a comfortable little “C. L. S. C. Grove-Rest” or “Go-to-the-Grove” picnic in your own neighborhood. One such humble gathering may be the seed of a grand Assembly one of these days.
