Collated word-by-word against the original scan.
Heavyweight pass: collated against the conferencereport1928sa djvu OCR witness (talk begins p. 112, Third Day Afternoon Meeting, Sunday, October 7, 1928, the closing session of the conference, opening after President Grant's telegram/announcement transition). Corrected date, session, and added a source page anchor. Removed two bled-in 'ELDER REED SMOOT' running-head artifacts mid-paragraph. Fixed OCR typos: 'The .lazy, the indolent' -> 'The lazy, the indolent'; 'Dr. William Osler' -> 'Dr. William Osler' (Sir William Osler, whose real address 'Life's Master Word' matches the quoted text; corrected 3 occurrences); stray comma after 'bind it upon your foreheads."'; 'the keys from (Elijah' -> 'the keys from Elijah'; 'the dispensation of thes gospel' -> 'the dispensation of the gospel'; 'said Bob -Burdette' -> 'said Bob Burdette'; 'has* come all the success' -> 'has come all the success'. Left 'M. D. Babcock, when she said' as printed even though Babcock was male, since it matches the OCR/source verbatim and is an error in the original text, not a transcription artifact.
