At Leavenworth
Church attendance is very much to
be desired for it is in the church that
we usually find Christ; but He is not
found of men unless they honestly
seek Him. Men find Him who dtt.w
near through the means of worship.

It is pleasant to think of church
( services as provided expressly for. our
comfort and entertainment. The
; church service that results only in
Rooml go nf lironk Pleasin? those who attend, entertain-
* ing them, making them feel comfort-
able and satisfied, is a tragic failure
and a travesty on the purpose of the i
church in the mind of its Founder.

Listening to the presentation of-
high ideals from week to week, which
one does not attempt to reach and
therefore never ‘attains, is a sin. Je-

seven lor a
day of rest and worship. We forget
that the church hour is an hour for
worship and the remainder of the day
for rest and service. But it is neces-
sary for us to pass through the pe-
riod of worship before we are prepar-
ed for the period of service. No one
can properly serve God without wor-
shipping first.

A new hook has come from the
press, entitled, “The Adventures of
Mr. Friend,” by Harold B. Hunting.
It contains twelve short engaging
stories about real people. These true
stories reveal to us great is the op-
portunity of the country boys and
girls. The preface says the =tory is
an attempt to portray the lives of
country people in America. You will
read about the pioneers in Illinois,
the cantaloupe packers in California;
about negro tenants on the cotton
plantations in Mississippi, and about
others. This is just the kind of a
book that country boys and girls and
even the older people on the farm
ought Lo read.
They were men who had given the
best years of their lives in the mud
of front line trenches, or in the smoke
and grime of artillery fire. They had
been deadly foes twelve years ago,
yet they stood shoulder to shoulder
as they called upon history’s greatest !
conference to guard against future !
The austere state of Texas and Helen Merritt (left) and Manon
Holloway have altogether different ideas as to how grape fruit should
be tested. Inspector M. H. Cline (at the right) measures it off in test
tubes and makes complicated calculations, while these San Benito girls
believe that tasting is the best way. Cline, who works for the state,
must determine if all grape fruit complies with the state green fruit
law before it is shipped.
