An illustration of this additional

A soda water fountain in a church
will be the novelty presented at the
Central Church Of Christ Disciples in
Syracuse, N. Y, says the New York
Sun. The Rev. Joseph A. Serena. the
pastor, announced recently that the
church would take steps to make 1t at
tractive for those who came to church
in hot weather. He has given the
question of decreased attendance In

and believes the way to overcome the
problems presented is to make people
comfortable.
The fountain will he placed in the
