just as religious as prayer. Religion
consists of something more than going
to church. 1t means something more
than teaching class in Sunday
school. 1t means something more than
praying. 1t means something more
than being member of some partic-
ular church. The truly religious
person will be religious on Monday
just as well as on Sunday. The in
divdual is not guided in his acts as
much by the laws of man as he is by
the inward law which is more ex-
acting than the laws of man. Every
becomes subject to this inner law and
no compromise will be accepted. The
ideals of Jesus Christ become the
ideals of the individual. The whole
life is to be perfected.
.'There is to be none of the spirit
of selfishness in the Kingdom of
Heaven. None of the spirit of self
seeking. Jesus came not to be served,
but to serve. There are to be nc

The following, under the heading
''The Movies and Church Services,
appeared in the Moscow Daily Star
Mirror of Monday, February ID:
''At Elk River, according to the
demands of the citizens, the council
passed permit to the proprietor of
the moving picture theatre to exhibit
his films at any hours that did not
conflict with regular church services.
Now the Christian Endeavor society
which meets before the regular even
ing service is trying to get itself le-
gally defined as a regular church
service in order that the competition
for attendance may not wax so bitter.
If the people who conduct religious
exercises knew enough to make them
interesting they would not have to go
to law to shut everything but their
own doors. Religious enthusiasts
will probably next try to pass law
compelling people to attend the exer-
cises in which they feel no interest
and of which perhaps they do not ap-
prove.
The editor of the Star Mirror must
have laid awake nights figuring this
out. Why didn't somebody think of
it years ago, instead of standing
around and doing nothing to fill our
church pews at prayer meetings, Sun
day School, preaching and Christian
Endeavor services? And to think that
"making the services interesting is
all that is necessary! Might we in
quire if the Star-M Mirror editor has
tried making church services inter
esting" in the Episcopal church, ane
if it has worked to the extent of tax
ing the capacity of the church? Ane
might we inquire for more definite in
formation as to just how the program
may be worked out? For instance
we might open prayer meeting Wed
nesday or Thursday nights with
three-r round boxing contest, or a two
best out Of three wrestling match
This might be varied, to keep up tn
interest, and substitute niggar bah
rack or wheel of fortune, with tn
usual cigar if you hit three of tn
dolls, or the little arrow stops on tn
lucky number. There are some VIII
don like these amusements, and 70
these, the bald-headed sinners, a sor
of cabaret performance on the pulpit
would pack the church, provided tn
girls wore bathing suits, kicked thei
little footy wooties high enough, an

ing or some other popular ragtim
ballad.
Perhaps, to make church service
interesting, the pastor might subst
tute an orchestra for the church chol
and let the congregation dance, wit
cards and cigars in the corner for Il
