CHICAGO MINISTER'S PRAISE
DAY BOOK SERMON IDEA


that The Day Book was going to
run a series of sermons -by Billy Sun
day next week. DR.. Hardin is pas
tor of Third PresbyteTians church,
225 S. Ashland blvd.
There is no reason why printed
sermon should not have as great a
moral effect as the one delivered
from the church pulpit, said DR.. Har-
din. GA sermon is effective when it
makes a man think. True, the ora
tor has the advantage of being able
to gain impression through his per-
sOnality, but at the same time the
printed sermon must necessarily en-
body the personality of the writer.
Then the printed sermon is always
there. It can be treasured away and
it admits of no doubts or discussions
as to what was said or meant.
ct is a good idea, this innovation
of The Day Book. It will make peo-
pie think and it will accomplish
good"
ct is a practical plan and will add
another feature to the many unique
attractions Of your paper" said the
Rev. VIM. H. Ohan of the Eleventh
