USING FILM IN THE. CHURCH

USING FILM IN THE. CHURCH
DR. Charles NJ. Sheldon in the Chris
tan Herald.
IL there is any debate over the
question OF the use of the modern
motion picture in the church by the
minister. IT would be debate over
the way In which the material Is
used. II is very trite saying that
"A good thing can be badly used.
The end in view by pastor of the
church. in the use OF any means in
his preaching. should be the salvation
of men. According to the Masters
rule, by their fruits We shall know
them.
The service should be conducted in
reverent spirit. The atmosphere
created will depend again almost al
together upon the minister. There is
all the difference in the world be-
tween a noisy, irreverent audience.
coming into the building chatting.
laughing, whispering. and an audi
enee that enters quietly and departs
in the same spirit. Music plays a
large part. The hymns, which are
thrown upon the screen are adapted
to the story itself. as near as pos
emit and devotional manner, and add
greatly to the impression made. g
There is nothing religious in hold
ing to method which puts the
preacher in front of empty seats. Any
method which will reach men honest
ly and truly in the spirit Of the
Master. and bring them in com
munion with Him. must be com
mended. But the emphasis must be
laid continually on the end in view.
A church lis not organized to enter
tain people. 1t IS not in the amuse-
ment business. 1t can never COM
pete with. the world; it does not have
to. But in the use of the same means
which are being used In the profess
sional theatre. the church can take
a wonderful thing. which does not be-
long to the money makers, but be-
longs to the whole world. and use 1t
as ] believe the Master Himself
might use it--simply as a means to
the great end OF reaching and saving
the people.

ONION WEEK

From the Thrift Magazine.
1t has been quite popular to have
one week set apart for certain spe-
cial observations ana practices. We.
have had prune week, Peanut week,
orange week. apple week and other
similar gala periods. We often have
wondered why we have not been ia
vored with onion week, during which
we could as a nation give ourselves
over to a more thoughtful and SYM
pathetic study OF this modest me mber
of the vegetable family than her
quiet demeanor and shrinking per-
sonality have won for her in the past.
The onion should be encouraged
Its more general use would go far
toward eliminating the dangers that
come from the congestion in street
cars, at railway stations, in the sub
way and elevated trains. and at po-
litical meetings. People who eat free
of the onion find that they are lees
apt to be crushed in traffic jams
or trampled upon while trying ton
find their way out Of public gather
ings.
The apples have adopted as their
motto for life the. following pleas
ing epigram: "An apple a day keeps
the doctor away" But at a recent
convention held by the onions the
following slogan was unanimously
accepted: IAN onion day keeps em
all away"
The onion has many culinary add
vantages. 1t can be fried, bolleAs
stewed or baked. Also II 90 -

British intelligence records of an Ar
