And some one wrote a hymn which says:
"Must I go and empty handed,
Thus my dear Redeemer meet,
Not one day of service give Him,
Lay no trophies at His feet?"
You, girls and boys, put the Christian uniform on now; join up soon. Then think of the long and splendid record of service that will be yours if you stand loyal to the army of Jesus Christ.
XXX
"Q" AND "S" GROCERY
Did you ever hear of that sort of a store? When I first saw the sign I wondered what it meant. I had heard of college societies with letters that describe them, and I had seen letters like that on music sheets; but whatever could it stand for over a grocery store?
Perhaps it meant "Quick and Sure" or perhaps it was the name of the men who owned it, only I could not see why they should be ashamed of their name, for most merchants want their name known.
At last some one told me it stood for "Quality" and "Service." Then I saw what a splendid sign it was.
It made people curious. It was so mysterious-looking that everybody would ask about it and talk about it, and that would advertise it; while the meaning, once found out, made you feel confident. A store that serves out quality is worth going to.
Any one who can show that he has quality and that he is anxious to serve is worth getting acquainted with.
