question: "Why do not men attend
church," and tried 10 answer #. His
solution Of the question may be salts
factory to some. but TO a whole lot OF
people. he did not get down 10 many
OF the real reasons why men do not
attend church. In the first place he
never mentioned the fact that there
are no spiitoons in churches and if a
man wants to chew tobacco while
listening to sermon be must spit on
the floor or swallow the juice, and
very few tobacco chewers like 10 do
that. Then the preacher does all the
talking and does not give the men any
chance talk politics or discuss busi-
ness or sociaimattcrs. Another thing
the churches are not provided with
card tables or smoking Compartments
and there are no-quiet hooks where q
fellow can take nip without being
seen. Whoever saw church where
a man could sit straddie OF a chair
and watch seven up game? Who
ever saw church where a man could /
cock his feet up on table or desk
and spit tobacco juice at q crack in
the floor or the direction Of the stovef
Sxearing is not permitted in any Of
the churches either. These things
should all be considered in replying
"a The question. esWhv do not men
attend church,"
