the name of your pastor, and a
schedule of services?
There is such a thing as justi-
fiable, even commendable pride
on the part of a Christian, in re-
gard to his faith, his spiritual fel-
lowship, his Christian comrades,
and in the progress of Christian
work. We like to see a pastor eYi-
dence pride in his church, the ap-
pearance of church property, and
especially in a well-ordered wor-
ship service and effective pro-
gram of education and training
for his people. Likewise, we like
to hear church members speak of
their pastor and church program
after a fashion as to indicate that
they have a heart interest in all
that their church is and does In
the community.
We can hardly hope to attract
others to our church services if
as members are not sufficiently
interested to attend.—Baptist
Standard

ther, Dale Crane, who is in the
Veterans Hospital at Muskogee,
Oklahoma. They were accompan-

ARE YOU PROUD OF
YOUR CHURCH?
Just how proud are you of the
church of which you are a mem-
ber? What are you doing to show
others that you are proud to be
counted worthy of membership
in your particular church? Did
you have a part in paying for
the place of worship? Are you
helping to keep the premises at-
tractive and the pews filled at
worship time? Is there a sign or
a bulletin board on the building,
giving the name of your church,

NATIONAL SUNDAY SCHOOL WEEK
APRIL 12 -18
The time has arrived when every right thinking American must
resolutely face the fact that the enemies of religion are now within
and without our frontiers.
The advocates of alien godless ideologies are leaving no stone un-
turned to discourage the children of America from acquiring a knowl-
edge of God.
Just how successful they will be depends upon the American
Parent who owes his child a religious education.
KEEP IN MIND
Religion Like Liberty Will Not Maintain Itselfv.

School Week, is indebted to those whose names appear below for the
