W. Earl Cochran, pastor of the Calvary Baptist church. Pastors. Sunday school superintendents and teachers are asked to give due consideration to this week, which begins May S and ends May 12. The need of music In the church and especially for the young peo ple Is described by Mr. Cochran in the following statement: "The early church was always a singing church and the hymn was the creed as well as the means by which the people ex pressed their thanksgiving; con. soled theirself In sorrow; instruct ed theirself in righteousness; min istered to their own patience; cre ated Joy where otherwise there would have been none. The tongue by which men evolve the highest thonrhu and feelings, is the tongue of music. Two thirds of th hymns are prayers and if we una It difficult to find it difficult to find words to express our thoughts let us sing such songs as "Jesus Norma' Greatest Role of her Career Don't Miss It! assortment still Come! ELGINOIiE t4, y TODAY ' ' Mrs. J7.IV. ' fa ' 1 Senator Hotel Bids. Lover of My Soul" which brings devotion to the heart and inspires communion with God. , "Music does for us what other1 things cannot do. If we are angry let us sing and era the song is completed the anger will bo gone, because wo cannot have antagon istic feelings together. When good humor comes-in bad humor goes Out. "The children who are well In structed in the music of the church are quite apt to be men and women who will find their way to the church In years to come, urging their children to sing because of the memory of songs that inspired hopo out of seeming defeat, changed sadness into joy and when they groped for words to express their feeling there came a song of the church, "Long ago the world gave np the idea that pepole could be forced to attend divine worship. If people attend they do so be cause they choose to attend and the church and Sunday school that makes much of Its music will have a strong bold on its people. Make Sunday a better day than any other day and they will observe it of their own accord. The young people of the Church of the Nazarcne will meet Friday night at the home of David Meg gers, tit Union avenue, for the regular prayer and Bible services.
