Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Singing Book for Boys and Girls Meetings: A Collection of Easy Songs and Tunes Where to be held? Let those of you, who feel for the poor and the friendless, go around in the needy districts of your city, and observe where on Sundays, or in the evenings, the ragged boys most collect. Find the streets and the corners, which are their favorite haunts. If personal observation will not teach you, inquire of the Missionary or the police-officer of that ward. Then seek out some common respectable room, a temperance hall, a school-room, or a loft in a warehouse; furnish it with plain benches and a desk, and with means for warming it well. Get next a few large cards printed, with some hundred smaller cards to distribute. Say nothing of "poor boys," or ragged," but call your meeting a "Boys´ Meeting!" Let the hour be in the afternoon, when you can get assistance from the churches, and when the boys are more likely to attend. Scatter your notices well through the whole neighborhood. Who shall engage in it? Let only those who are in earnest. Such work is not for a few Sabbaths - for a passing religious enthusiasm. It must be patient, steady, hearty; to be urged on through discouragements, difficulties, even apparent want of success. You want live men in it. Men who really believe that the poor outcast boy has a soul immortal within him; and that one has died for him, even as for the child of the rich. Men who feel for the poor, the helpless, the forsaken, as their brethren; and who do not forget that in working for the least of these, they are working for Christ. You want men of sense. The vagrant boy sees through any humbug. You must have something to say, or you will find out very soon that the audience is not with you. Your leader must be a man with a voice, and some force to him, and above all, a patient good nature. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
