Text description beneath the picture (subject to any spelling errors due to the OCR program used) FULFILLING THE COMMAND.Go ye out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in." Such was the command of the Teacher; and, happily, there are many good men and women throughout the Empire who devote their lives to a literal fulfilment of the command. The picture shows us a service held for waifs and strays in one of the poorest parts of London. It is not hard to see that among the congregation are many to whom misery and want have not always been familiar companions, nor can it be doubted that there are many to whom the opportunity of work vouchsafed at last will bring happier and more prosperous days; but to all of them this Christmas service, bringing its old message of rest to the weary, blessing to the poor in spirit, and hope for the hopeless, must come as a refreshment and a help.
