What's the Use or Going to Church?
A great many people make the above
reply when 1 1 ey are invited to attend
the house of Ood. Such a reply is due
either to thoughtlessness or Ignorance.
It is to be deplored, that many give the
great subjects of Christianity and the
' hereafter but little thought. This being
the i-aso, they fail to see the close con

ami the highest welfare of the state. It

people. The welfare of the state ami tin

"What is one of the greatest factors in
educating and quickening the COO
science'.' I answer the church. Why'.'
Ixcause it is there, that the great truths
concerning God, Christianity and the
immortality of UtS MOl are taught Most
of our greatest men have recognized the
truth.
Washington was a comuiuiu. ant
Lincoln a praying man, llcujamin II. r
rison and William Mckinley were
earnest Christians. McKmley was a

Bosk our republic rests." And let us
not forget, that it is in the church where
that book is chiefly taught.
Napoleon was no christian, hut he
knew the value of the church to the na
tions. During the bloody French Invo
lution, the churches wete cloeed, and
the preachers chased out of Paris. But
when Napoleon gained control of the
government, he called the preuihir
back, and opened the churchee. Why
do so few men in Roseburg attend
church? Are they ignorant ol the fact
that live, growing, well-attended church
es contribute to the welfare and prestige
of a city? Sometime ago an iulidel gave

of a church. Said the preacher, "II w
is this? You don't believe in Christ and

with my family. I would not want to

of Christianity, neither life nor propertv

Christian was long-headed enough lo
see the value of the chinch to the com
munity. The man who IfttOrSI the church IS
