There is a nation wide turning TO
the churhes aud TO more rational
thinking. Man cannot long lose sight
of his Creator without reaping Bit
ter harvest, and In Christian America
IL is unthinkable that the masses OF
the country will do else in the face of
the great problems OF the day, but
turn to God Sunday schools are
growing in attendance, more are at
tending upon preaching OF the Word,
and more serious mind possess he ma
ton. Come, let us reason together. ~
sayeth the Lord Clarendon News.
While IN many ways the World
War seemed to have n tendency TO
take the people away from the
church and TO direct their minds TO
the things OF the world, yet during
the past few months there is being
a renewed allegiance to the church
and to things that are uplifting and
elevating. In many localities the sun
day school has grown to such mum
bers that the church and the Sunday
school buildings are inadequate %
accommodate the large crowds. From
some sections complaints come that
the churh people have forgotten God
and have drifted into worldliness
and while this may be true, yet the
church is getting hold Of many men
and women whom were difficult TO
reach. The church has q great mis-
sion. Many members are not true, but
the good work will continue until
time shall be no more, and when the
time comes 90 answer the final roll
call" great will be the number OF
good and true men and women who
will be ushered in through the Pearly
Gates and great will be the multitude
,f men and women who will learn OF
their COMBINATIONS and many
church members will be included In
this number. Many people are grow
Ing better and many people are not
but the church IS marching on and
will perform its mission.-Taylor
County Times.
When all else fail, you will find
the church still battling for the
right and victorious in the end. The
time Is opportune for great reii-
gious awakening and all things tndi-
cate It's coming. We cannot long for
get God for there is a natural crying
Of the soul for things spiritual. Why
not give the Spirit right-of-way?
