I would ask where I believe is there greater responsibility?' nowhere. Ami like all other responsibilities it requires the constant enjoyment of the Spirit of Cod to enable us to discharge' our duty faithfully and acceptably In this capacity a woman is president. She is called to her to act as a physician and a little flock or charge.. She is all this in connection, with her husband. Hv wojnan's industry a great deal can be of the accomplished in the furtherance workof her husband. If she is faithful and industrious she lightens' his load; bears part of his burden ; anticipates his wants and is truly what was designed to be a helpmate. I know by past experience, they can do a great deal by their industry. Many' of us recollect the second year of our settlement here, how eager we were to raise crops,, but this could not be. done without industry. We had brought with u.Ofrowi St. Louis two hens; from these we "raised 60 chickens. Notwithstanding our scarcity, this I have not been able to do since, though we liave had plenty. We had four quarts of potatoes for seed, and by carefulness and industry we raised from them. 25 bushels of potatoes. 1 know I am not the' only one who could tell similar cases of the effects of industry. ' I pray God to bless us and enable us U: be industrious, that we may fill the measure of our creation, that in tite end. our works may be done and well done to His acceptance, in the name of Jesus.
