You know that NOWHERE ELSE CAN YOU FIND "THE PEACE THAT PASSETI1 ALL UNDERSTAND ING;" that nowhere else are you so sure of meeting with God fearing folks; that nowhere else should you be so proud to bn seen; that church membership is a MARK OF HONOR and evidence that a man or woman is a worth while member of the community. BUT DO YOU 00 YOUR BEST TO INDUCE OTHERS TO GO TO CHURCHr As you and others need the comfort and the help which the church and the church alone can give, so does the church need your help. GO YOURSELFi TAKE YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS; PER SUADE OTHER TO GO. Share with them the Joy and contentment you feel when, leaving God's bouse, you meditate upon the heartening sermon you have heard, telling you that "Qod's in his heaven; all's right with the world;" upon the uplifting music, elevating and refining the spirit; upon the recital of the spiritual experiences of others, each bearing upon your own soul problems. It is selfish to keep these good things to yourself; therefore SHARE THEM. Having heard the call to higher, purer, more satisfying life, pass it on to others. In no other way can you earn so well the heartfelt gratitude of your fellow man or woman as by bringing the glorious message of religion.
