WHY ADVERTISE CHURCHES

There is one thing that everybody is
talking about said Ewing Herbert.
editor of the Hiavatha World. in speak
ing before rs members of the Ad and
Commercial club together with their
wives and sweethearts at the annual
dinner of the former organization Tues
day night LAS I understand it, the
subject is whether one man can come
back or whether one man can stop him.
One Topeka newspaper says he can
come back and the other says he can't
come back. Then we find the discreet
Nick Chiles ready to jump in on either
side when the convention is over.
From any point of view ours is the
best country yet. I am proud of the
fact that IN America we have freedom
not enjoyed by any other people on the
globe. 1 am not at all alarmed at our
outcome so long as we can look back
over the past, and look into the bright
future.
mo man in the country is as big rs
the country itself. There is no man to
whom we owe so much that we must
think OF him and no other"
These were the introductor-- remarks
of Mr. Herbert. The Rev. Robert Cor
don spoke on the value of advertising
the church. The meeting was presided
over by N. =. Burge. An Orchestra"
of two pieces under Ray Hall furnished
music.

ours said Mr.. Herbert, every man is
an advertiser because I believe every
man has goods to show to his fell
bowman. ! think you can read in
every mans face what he stands for
You can tell whether he has any
character, and you can tell whether
he has any sense. Some times you
are mistaken on both points. but
there is something to be gained by
looking into a mans show case,
which is his face.
Men advertise for the purpose Of
selling goods. for the purpose of Civ
ing Information. for the purpose Of
getting good viii and for the final
purpose of benefiting the public.
Il was glad to hear a brother say
tonight he believed in advertising the
church and the gospel of Jesus
Christ 1t has been nearly 1000
years since Christ was here and some
of the newspapers haven't yet found
it out. They will find it out and con
tribute the price of advertising.

would preach on Hell and that Mr.
Brown would sing, Tell Mother I'll
Be There.

speakership and gave Murdoch $3.50
a night as g public lecturer.
