THE PROOF OF THE PUDDING.

he regretted taking out an insurance policy.
saying that he found 1t burdensome to him.
His friend enquired how long would be re-
Qured to collect the amount of his insurance
In the event of his death He replied about
fifteen days Then his head fell on his breast
and in moment he was dead.
1t is this very element OF uncertainty In life
that gives supreme value to life insurance as
an Investment Not merely the uncertainty
Of living. but the uncertainty Of business sue
cess and OF the future ability to properly pro-
vide for dependents.
policy in great company is absolutely
certain. There Is no asset of n mans estate
as this 1t Is perpetual guarantee
against the disaster OF death and OF business
reverses. The man with a comfortable policy
can keep comfortable mind, for he knows
that whatever happens his family is provided
for.
The carrying OF goodly policy cannot there
fore be properly called a burden when one re-
members that it inevitably lifts the burden from
the shoulders of the widow and orphans Mr.
Stone bore the burden as he should have done.
His family. because of that fact will not face
the necessity Of bearing heavier one.

WHY NOT?

The Rev. Zed H. Copp has introduced a unique
experiment in religious activity in Washington.
D. c. Facing the startling fact that the church
Is not reaching the masses and that large
proportion OF the population never atten upon
religious services, he has resorted to the NOV
ing picture expedient OF attracting and help
ing the drifting masses Of his city's population.
Mr.. Copp has secured a moving picture the
atre for Sunday services. Here he delivers SER
mons illustrated by the motion pictures and
the audience engages in the singing of popular
religious songs to the accompaniment OF the
regular piano player OF the theatre There is
an air OF informality and common brotherhood
that has drawn together large audiences, who
are sure Of welcome, whatever their condi-
ton and appearance and these floating crowds
the preacher hopes to help.
Perhaps the extreme ecclesiastic may find
much to criticise and condemn in this innova.
ton. but to us 1t seems a most admirable enter
prise. We feel that the Christ If He were in
| the nesh today would scarcely wait for the
| crowds to come to Him. He would go after the
drifting masses and would employ any legiti-
| mate resort to attract them and help them. Ger
| tainly this supposition squares with the pro-
gram He fulfilled Wien He was upon the earth
| Why should not His church follow the same
| plan.
There is a valuable suggestion In this idea
| 1t may be and should be adapted to every city
where the churches are empty and the streets
are crowded, There is no valid reaosn why
the men who are seeking to save souls should
be less energetic and enterprising than those
who seek to sell goods. When the church comes
to the consciousness Of It's mission and its
opportunities there will be decided effort to
go after the people who have deserted its affairs
