Don't Knit in Church

The Michigan Christian Advocate
says: Knitting in church is not q sign
OF. either intelligence, industry or pa
triotism; it 10 . significance Of lack
OF interest in worship and . sure sign
OF lack OF concentration in devotion.
A divided, otherwise employed mind
is not an asset to the religious ser
vice. AS young people we must learn
the art OF worshipping; we will never
learn 1t with the knitting needles in
church. A new proverb write unto
you: There is a time to knit; there Is
time to worship.
Business progress is the advance
guard Of all progress.
