Text Appearing Before Image: at throng. She plans farm-workand fruit raising, makes contracts, superintends the building, ar-ranges the school-room classes, translates kindergarten songs,writes church hymns and does evangelistic work. *When she entered the room—that little white-robed fig-ure—one could feel a thrill of consciousness pass through allthat assembly as it recognized the presence of a great person-ality. A single word from her, a single syllable, could set theroom ablaze, or hush it into silence. She is really one of themost commanding and extraordinary women of her time. Her devotion to Christ, her life of communion in the heav-enlies, her deepening knowledge of things Divine, her passionfor the uplift and true salvation of the neglected, saddened, ig-norant and pitiful child-widows, make her personality and life-work throb with Divine energy, and she has her reward inseeing them become happy, beautiful, educated and usefulChristian women. And think of the eternal reward awaitingher journeys end. Text Appearing After Image: Hester Ann Rogers HESTER ANN ROGERS AN old-fashioned name, you say, for a sweet baby girl,born January 31, 1756, m Macclesfield, Cheshire,England. Well trained by a pious father, a clergyman in the Churchof England, and by an exacting mother, Hester Ann Roegrew to greatly reverence the Lord, to be scrupulous in herconduct, and to pray earnestly. Family prayer daily, and astrict observance of the Sabbath, were the rules in their home.When she was nine years old her father called her to his bed-side, commended her to Gods tender care, warned her againstever participating in dancing, novel-reading, and other popu-lar sins of the day. A few days later he died of a malignantfever. After this, as she grew into beautiful womeuihood, shewas greatly admired. Her mother now let her be taught todance, attend plays, read novels, and give herself up to vani-ties and pleasure-seeking. She entered the church by confirmation when she wasthirteen years old, was serious for a time, would fast and pray, Note About Images Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original work. |
