CHURCHES MUST ADVERTISE

Two leading divines of st. Louis ex-
press cordial approval of the statement
that the church, like a mercantile en-
terprise, requires publicity-advertising
If it is TO achieve the greatest good
for the largest number. This opinion
has found voice in two large American
cities-St. Louis and Denver.
In st. Louis the Rev. c. NJ. Chiffon.
an evangelist, declared in a sermon to a
congregation of First Christian church
that churches must advertise. There
is no other way in a big city, where
competition is as keen as it is in other
walks of life"
Almost coincident with this utterance
was that of the Rev. Frank n. Brown
of Brooklyn. preaching at a chuch in
Denver.
"All modern Sunday schools should
have their advertising men and bu-
reaus of publicity, just as the modern
mercantile establishments have those
adjuncts," said Dr. Brown.
Sunday schools should place them
selves before the public in the newspa-
pers and by other means. Much can
be accomplished by doing this. St

If your sweet face were not so sweet
But homely as could be.
Then homeliness would be a treat
Beyond all words to me.
And If your form were warped and bent
AS it is full of grace.
I'd like it to the same extent
AS I would like your face.
If your bright eyes were all asquint,
A squint would be my choice,
And were your hair a muddy tint,
In mud would l rejoice.
Were you quite angular and thin,
Instead of round and plump.
would admire your bone and skin
I'm just that sort of chump.
1 would not care how you might look,
I'd still be fond and true.
And not take back the heart you took
AS long as you were you.
Such little things as these, I say
To you with perfect case,
like to do it-and you may
Believe 'em, if you please.
