ADVERTISING
BY CHURHES
BIG DISPLAY ADVERTISEMENTS
BRING WONDERFUL RESULTS
IN ATTENDANCE AT AN At
LANTA CHURCH.

A special from Atlanta says: Dis
play advertising in the newspapers 70
swell a church congregation is rather
a new feature, at least in the south;
but the Rev. J. w. Ham, assistant pas
tor of the Baptist tabernacle of this
city, is authority for the statement
that it pays.
A few months ago the Baptist taber >
nacle, which is presided over by DIR.
Len G. Broughton, who, by the waY,
has had more than an ordinary far
share Of advertising in the news COL
umns of local and state papers, decided
to try an advertising stunt with a view
to bringing more people out to church.
I'VE have found that it pays and
pays WELL" said the Rev. Mr.. Ham in
discussing the subject. Publicity
helps any institution, church or what
not, and we have additional evidence of
this fact since we have been placing
regular display advertisements in the
local papers.
Once or twice a week we publish a
regular display advertisement in the
local papers, calling attention to sorc >
special feature or some special service
at the church. The results have been
magnificent. On occasions the crowds
have increased remarkably, and there
have been times when nearly as many
as 1000 people could not get into the
church on account of a lack of seating
capacity.
Another noteworthy result from ad-
vertising is the increase in the Sunday
collections. On specially advertised oc-
casions we have known the collections
to treble and even quadruple.
This kind of advertising appeals 10
the popular mind" continued Mr.. Han,
sin a simple and direct manner. Il is
an appeal that Is in many instances ir-
resistible; we propose to push It
Some churches need it mighty bad.
II had an Indifferent or dying church
/ would get busy with display adver-
Using. We have more than proven the
efficacy of 1t. AS a matter Of fact, the
tabernacle does not need to advertise
because the church is nearly always
filed TO over1owing. But 1t has done
much good in the way Of injecting en-
thusiasm into the work.

PENRoSE.

While fishing from a boathouse just

his balance and fell into the deep
water and would prabably have
drowned but for the timely aid OF
Henry E. Phillips, of the revenue, cut
ter Penrose, who succeeded in bring

Excitement was rife for several
minutes and grave fears were felt
for the man in the water, for it looked
like he would lose his life before help
could reach him.
Fortunately, however, no one was
hurt nor is anyone the worse off from
the experience except from a thorough
wetting in Pensacola bay.
