OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES!

that poor old soul OF yours occasional
ly by going to church? Starved it
till it is no longer hungry?
Many Christians are like trunks in
garret, stored full, but never open
ed. Speaking of trunks reminds me
to enquire where is your church
the form of letter?
An Oregon Deacon one day caught
very fine salmon, and determined
to take it to the governor of his state,
who was spending a few days with
some friends at nearby town. Stop
ping for dinner at hotel on the way,
he told his errand, and somebody
changing the salmon for a stale cod
fish. You can imagine the horror of
both the governor and the Deacon
when the package was opened. The
disappointed Deacon started home
with his Goldfish. and dined again at
the same hotel, where, telling his tale
of woe. the same person slipped out
the Goldfish and slipped in once more
the salmon. When the Deacon reach
ed home he told the story to his wife,
who had herself packed the salmon.
They opened the box together. and
there was the salmon. "Well.'' said
the Deacon, you are good salmon in
the country, but in the city you are a
miserable Goldfish"
The frequent change of residence
and circumstances make as great a
change in Christians. Delta is full of
men and women, who were once ear
nest church workers and liberal sup
porters of the Gospel in Missouri or
some other state where they used to
live But their religion somehow
could not endure the change of clim-
rado. Their church membership il
not in their trunks, is in the town
where they used to live. They may
go to church sometimes. but their pub
lie Identification of religion is where
they used to live.
Attend the church of your choice
next Sunday and cease being a stale
Goldfish.
