WHY GO TO CHURCH?
Why do people go to church? Why
should they go to church? The an-
swers to these two questions are not
necessarily alike. Some people receive
the great benefits of church attend-
ance; others miss the real purpose of
going to church.
Let us consider the purpose of at-
tending church. We may say that it
is our duty to go to God’s House, but
if we find no other motive than duty
we shall lose many spiritual blessings.
The purpose of church’ attendance is
to receive instruction and to worship.
Instruction as to how to be a Chris
tian and how to live a better Chris-
tian life is usually given by the pas-
tor; but a very important feature of
the church program is the worship.
Worship should stand out in our minds
as we think of going to church.
When you ask some people if they
•re going to church, they reply that
they have just finished a hard task
CROSS-EYED?
We are using a new method for
correcting cross eyes.
Delays are dangerous.

here and a hard task there and that
they do not feel like doing one mort
hard task by going to church. Going
to church is not ‘one more thing’ to
do in our week's work but going to
church should be something that we
do in order to give us rest from do-
ing the ‘things’ of the week. When
we get tired of working, do we refuse
to sit down in a chair and rest be-
cause we think that resting will be
just another job which will tire us?
No, we are glad to do this ‘one more
thing’ when it is resting. Now, going
to church is lone more thing’ to do
but it is a thing that gives us res.
from our work and Worry of the week
If we are tired of the strain of life
and if we are filled with worry, we
should remember that the church cai
help us.
Attend church so th^t you can
worship, which means to turn your
soul towards God and to feel His
drawing love. Enter the church real-
izing that you are expecting to meet
God there; meditate, think about Goc
and His love for you; pray for peace
and guidance; and seek to find only
the best in all that is said and done
during the hour.
Go to church so that you can wor-
ship God, look to Him in love and
receive His love. But you may say
that you can worship out in the woods
among the things of nature so at-
tending church is not necessary. We
should worship as we behold the won-
ders of nature but how often do we?
It seems that we need a special place
which is set apart for the purpose of
worship to call our attention to Lie
things of religion. The church sug-
gests worship so we expect to worship
GETTING’ VALUE PLUS
FOR YOUR MONEY
Many men consider the purchase of a suit from one angle
alone—the price—as it immediately concerns them.
The important thing, however, is how much value do you
get regardless of the amount expended ?

whenever we go there; we are wit'i
the things of nature so much of the
time that we do not necessarily think
of worship when we touch the things
of nature. We need our worship di-
rected at times and the church doe:
this. The experience of others who
have touched God in worship is at
your disposal when you meet with
them to worship in church, while if
you worship alone among the trees,
you do not have this help. We receive
inspiration from a group that we do
not get when we are alone. Also the
church gives you a better opportunity
to express your worship in service
and giving. When we really worship
God with all of our soul, we are led
to do something in His kingdom and
the church affords a field for our
work. Worship God all that you can
out in nature; the soul needs this
kind of worship. But worship God ir.
church also for the soul must have
this kind of worship too.
Heed the instruction that you re-
ceive at the church; express your feel
ings in giving and serving and bring-
ing others to the Master; and be cer-
tain to remember the worsnip part
of church attendance. Many do not
realize the importance of worship.
When you enter the church, pray that
God will feed your soul; during the
prelude think about Christ and Hii
love and then wait for God to talk
to your soul; try to feel the meaning
of the songs which you sing; when
you give your offering, tell God that it
is for Him from you; follow the pas
tor in the prayers and make then
your prayers; listen to the sermor.
and try to find some good in it an 1
think on the good part; let your soul
rise with all of the music to height*
above; during communion try to feel
the spirit of Christ near you. Enter
fully into the spirit of worship for
this is the important purpose of
church attendance.
E. G. Mosley, Minister.
EDITORIAL
Once again the season has come
around when we will hear baseball
news through the air and read it in
papers, the time when we watch our
favorite players. We always take no
tice of every move they make. Now
the ones we should be particularly
interested in is our favorites here,
our.team. The team will soon be in
full action regularly, all working hard
for a place. It will be by no means
an easy thing to place on this team
without hard work. It will perhaps
be several weeks before we will bo
able to say who will hold down the
various positions, but whoever does,
we are assured that he will be a qual
ified player because if he does not do
his duty and tend to business he
might be eliminated and someone else
will replace him.
Now, watch these men and put your
faith in them; show them the right
spirit and I assure you that they will
show you something that will be of
much interest and a team to be proud
of. —By I. D.
