The surroundings seemed to change, glorified by the secret of the
Lord. My heart went out to this old negress with her scarred form,
for was she not a dweller under the shadow of the Almighty? I
thankfully acknowledged my relationship to her, for was she not a
daughter of the King, and higher up than I?
MRS. A. M’DOUGALL.

NOTES IN THE SADDLE.
BY FIELD-SUPERINTENDENT C. J. RYDER.
Le Moyne Institute, at Memphis, Tenn., like almost all of the A.
M. A. schools this year, is full to overflowing. A large number of
pupils have been turned away for the want of accommodations.
The Industrial department of Le Moyne Institute is receiving
constant additions. A printing outfit has recently been procured,
and the students are busy over “fonts” and “pi,” though no
printer’s devil has as yet appeared. The scholars have done some
good job work already and are thus turning their industrial
training into immediate practical benefit. The other departments
of the Institute are keeping step with its industrial development.
Le Moyne is broadening its influence constantly and sending its
roots deeper and deeper into the intellectual and religious
soil of Memphis. It is recognized as one of the most beneficial
institutions in the city by the citizens of all shades of political
opinion.
The Congregational Church stands immediately opposite the
Institute, and students are especially welcomed into its services
and membership. If New England Pilgrimism of early days is
reproduced anywhere it certainly is in the work of the A. M. A. The
Church and the School are the joint and inseparable agencies for
the building of character.
