Hundreds OF young mon who come
to Wilmington to get an education and
learn trades experience an indescriba-
bic longing for society. It Is still
more SO with young ladies'. II is an
irresistible law OF human nature.
The entertainment committee that
can diyest itself of seltishness and
self-seeklng, of prndlshness and prim-
ness. and of frozen wet-blankets and
iceDergs, Is good committee to have
In church. Such committee will
not overlook the poor on tho instinct
that they are OF no advantage or inter-
est TO them. They will particularly
LOOK after those strangers whose
clothes are palmer and whose income
Is necessarily small.
We particularly recommend the en-
tertainment committee OF the Epworth
League OF Scott NJ. +. Church. They
very appropriately have ladies' as well
as gentlemen on their entertainment
committee. They appear TO DO able to
speak to stranger and bid him well
come and give him such attentions as
are obvious and customary even
though he Is poor man, and they arc
even more likely to shake hands with
him In cordial way and invite him TO
come again.
We recommend that entertainment
committee because they appear TO be
able to treat a man that way even
though he Ia not a rich prize In the
matrimonial market. We have no
doubt but that thay proceed in this
way because actuated by the spirit of
the Saviour they prefer to follow. they
proceed In the line of their official
duty.
Any man who could not receive
these attentions as the outcome OF
christian charity and true philan-
thropy would not be such man as
would be likely to seek the premises Of
a Christian church.
Now, just word In the ears of a
thousand young men In Wilmington.
Before you yield to the society OF the
drinking saloons TO answer that ire
sistible longing of your social nature,
visit Scott Nj. L. Church few times I
inc ludinR some OF its soeal meetings
and entertainments where tho youn q
people can get chance To speak to
you. IL Is purity OF life that enables
people to love humanity.
You can the better trust persons
who arc aetuated toward you in the
spirit of Christian love. 10 has no
doubt always been the idea of the
Great Founder of the Church TO have
His Oh urch irresistibly lovely and at
tractive to people by the purity, hon.
esty sincerity, truthtulness and right
eousiess OF those who abide therein.
mat ENTERTAINMENT committee cer.I
tainly pleased us very much. We
would not by any means raise the eX-
pectations of our stranger young men
TO have them wrecked upon the sell
fishness of self-seeking.
