DON'T LET JUDAS KEEP you OUT

DON'T LET JUDAS KEEP you OUT
Dear Household Friends; Lately
there has been a great deal of discus
sion about being member of a church.
and 'can one be a Christian and not
belong to a church,"
To be a Christiap/ is to be Christ
like. l believe it the duty of each and
every one to belong to a church-the
church you think is right in its rules
not simply be member; but a helper
to promote the cause of Christ.
1t shouldn't. simply. be a duty to do
so but pleasure to help in any Chris
tian work. One shouldn't stand back
and wait for another to come and ask
one to do ones duty, which is Christian
service: but when one sees work to do,
do it. The more we become servants Of
Christ the better we will like 1t.
/ think it would be so nice for every
church to adopt a plan to get every
member in it to do something. An idle
member is a dead member 1 fear. In
some neighborhoods the sick are neg
lected, maybe in others the needy, in
others the stranger and outcast the
bereaved and lonely A few members
appointed to look after and visit each
class could do worlds of good.
I believe more feeling and sympathy
would be aroused for each other than
there is among many of US at present,
If we felt the personal touch. Don't
excuse yourself from being member
of a church because 1t has a Judas in
il. All of them have and have had
since Christ called his IL disciples.
Why should we want to lose our
souls because we believe others are
lost?

pieces stamped in eyelet or solid, also

filled at the spring and in that way,

ones. Others also Joined me in this
and 1 never expect to see a more will
ing set of people than t4ose saw that
day. The Dalton people pu- forth every
effort to relieve the sufferers. 1t was
two miles to Dalton and 1 believe every
buggy, carriage and automobile was
mustered into service. First the
wounded ones and then the others were
taken back to wait for the train to
Calhoun.
AS / said at the beginning of this let
ter, ! cannot describe the miseries.
Three were killed outright and many
may die as the result. / do hope and
pray that all who were there may take
the lesson home and if not prepared
for the destruction of --ese mortal
bodies, to do so. Think of the horror
of that scene and remember that the
destruction of ones soul is for eternity.
In the language of that great old
prophet, IF Baal be god serve him, if
Jehovah be God, serve him. Don't
have any more halfway measures.
The Scriptures say that all things
work together for the good of those
who love and serve God, and / trust
that many who were there that day will
turn their feet unto tee ways of God
ana De saved. 1t is the beginning or
wisdom to seek the kingdom of God
and His righteousness. If we miss
heaven we will have missed everything
that is worth while. 1t is not enough
just to name the Name and sit still.
We want to be up and doing something
to let the Light of the world shine
through out works and enlighten our
benighted fellow creatures. Let us win
souls for Jesus and when that day
comes, we may hear the blessed Mas
ter say, We'll done, thou good and
faithful servant"

THOUGHTS on THE WRECK.


Dear Sisters: Much has happened
since l was with you. Sorrow has been
my portion, though have tried to bear
it as Christian woman should. My
dear husband fell in the barn and only
lived two weeks. We thought he was
getting well; he sat up March %; but
about two in the afternoon he lay down
and in less than an hour he was dead.
He never spoke after he was taken
with his last illness, but died instant
ly. 1t seems to me that l would have
given anything to have talked to him
for ten minutes. 1t was great shock
to me and / have not been strong since.
However, l went on the excursion
that was bound for Chickamauga Park,
June IL, and was in that awful wreck.
II is beyond me to describe the horri-
BILE sight of that occasion. l had a
lick on my head that made me uncon-
scious for a short time. AS my car
went down, l was thinking that we all
might be plunging into stream deep
enough to be drowned, and the first
thought as I came to life and found
the car still. but not in water very
deep, was to be thankful / would pat
those around me that were screaming
and crying with fright and try to quiet
them and tell them to be thankful that
things were no worse. / am bruised
and sore from my waist to the top of
my shoulder on my lert side and have
the lick on my head. but l have never
in my life been more thankful for the
use of both hands than | was for that
of my right hand. My son, his wife
and three children had bruises and
scratches, but no bones broken. Four
families on my street had three in each
family badly hurt, some may never
get over theirs.

BEST ASSET POOR MEMORY
Why James 10 Regarded With Favor
by the Inhabitants Of His
Boarding House.

James Is very popular negro in a
boarding house and is accounted un-
usually reliable. He receives, there
fore, frequent gratuities and is exceed
ingly prosperous.
This in spite Of the fact that he has
one Of the greatest capacities for for.
getting of any one to be met with
even among the employees Of a board
Ing house.
What, then, is the secret of his repu-
tation for being a reliable man? One
boarder has studied the problem and
gives the answer:
HE never refuses to execute a CON-
mission, Is always apparently atten-
tive to any order given him, and when
the angry boarder blows him up for
his failure to do what he was told he
takes 1t meekly and stoically.
He seems such an easy mark that
the boarder goes on and on with his
abuse until he feels that he has gone
too far. Then he grows ashamed of
himself and slips James a quarter.
THANK you, SIR says James, and
they both feel better, and the boarder
remarks, james is pretty good boy
after ALL"
