HI
Particular endorsement of "Bet.

of Salem is asked by the promo
tion committee, announces Rev.
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

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

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.
