made more attractives looking and
when services are not held too long.
The young people will go where they
are the best entertained. The songs
OF two hundred years ago, sermons
two hours long, followed by prayers
half hour long, these hot Sundays,
do more towards driving the young
people away from the churches than
anything else that can be mentioned.

parents will permit the smaller chill
