CHRIST TEMPLE CHURCH
o. J. Burckhardt, Pastor
j. Goodwin, Asst.
Mrs. Edna Pankey, Reporter

The Temple services for the day
opened as usual with a well at
tended Sunday School, which was
brimful Of interest on the part of
both teachers and pupils. We are
not at all egOtistic, but we feel
sure we have one OF the best Sun
day Schools III the city, and also
the best attended in proportion
to the membership to the member
ship Of the church. The lessons are
thoroughly discussed from a spir-
Eual angle.
At II a. m, one of our local
ministers in the person of Elder
F. II. Huntley, brought Us a time
" message, III which he dealt with
the present conditions that grip
churches IN these day. Those in
attendance were well pleased with
the message.
At 300 p. m, the government
sent over transportation facili-
ties and took us over to the gov
er1men headquarters, where hun
dreds of men of all walks of Life
are sheltered. Here we rendered a
religious program for these poor
souls who are homeless and
ChristleSs. We had our choir and
our little orgainst, Siser Marion
Butler, who delights in playing
music for the glory of God. The
pastor detailed Elder Walter Ir-
wing as speaker of the hour. It is
needless to say he took care of
he situation, for this he did in a
well directed talk.
At s p. m, the pastor brought
us a message from Luke 21-28.
When these things begin to come
to pass, then look up and lift up
your heads; for your redemption
draweth nigh. This text deals with
the present conditions tina are con-
fronting the church world The
ing of Jesus is drawing nigh, for
we beEeve. that every thing in
dicates His early return, to take
His church away, so that the
saints of God will not have to 90
through the tribulation period.
Our Friday night prayer meet.

Ghost, / don't know" Exper-
fence has taught me in the last 35
years that it is our privilege to
live Ii that blessed relationship
with God, and that we are at all
time candidates to receive His
blessing. You viii always find a
hearty welcome at Christ Temple.
We are always glad to see our
friends, as well as the strangers.

Evening services were also well

verse; Behold, the hour cometh,
yes, is now come, that ye shall
be scattered, every man to his
own, and shall leave me alone
and yet l am not alone, because
the Father is with me-" Music
was furnished during the day by
1he junior choir.
The Epworth League is con
tinually growing, both Junior and
Senior. More adults are attending
and thus making the discussions
more interesting as more takepart.
The discussion was led by Miss
Helen Wilkes. The Junior League,
led by Mrs. Gillian, has It's new
literature and is making great
plans for the future also.
The church was very sorry to
hear Of the death of one of its
former ministers, Rev. A. H.
Higgs, and also Of Miss Genevieye
Wilkes of Clair Chapel, and a
graduate of Technical High
School Miss Wilkes was an ac-
tive leader Of our young people

in the happy personalities of it's
Secretaries.
The Assistant Secretary, Mr..
r. Walton Moore, is much the
same sort of a man as Cordel
Hull. Courteous, intellectual in
an unostentatiouS way, both of
these Southern gentlemen carry
on the diplomatic business of
their Government effectively
and without Self-conSciousness.
Mr.. Moore and his delightful
sisters have a home at Fairfax
Courthouse to which Washing
tonianS are eager to drive for
pleasant, unhurried hospitality.
Mr.. Moore and his sisters live
in the rambling old house in
which they were born. 1t is a
cheerful house, mellowed by
time and furnished with mahog-
any that belongs where you see
it. Not the sort that was
Snatched up at somebody's auc-
ton.
The garden reaches out for an
acre or so. Uncrowded shrub
berry, forsythia, mock orange,
crepe myrtle, lilacS, hollyhocks,
and pink and white dogwood
blossom in good season. Hun
dredS of roses, endless clumpS
of iris, SnapdragonS, pinkS and
phlox now are waiting for spring
and summer sunshine.
From the back porch is a
view of Fairfax county hills
and valleys. Beyond the gar
den, in an adjoining field, is
q square red brick house with
deep hipped roofs and an air
of knowing something about
life. Secretary Moore loves to
point out this house. He
chuckles sometimes when he
shows it to a Northern visitor.
It is a landmark famous in
the life Of Col. John S. Mosby,
the dashing Confederate scout
(the damnyankees called him a
guerilla). Fairfax Courthouse
was once the center of Mosby's
Confederacy, and the inspira-
ton for many surprise attacks
on the Union troops.
The red brick house was the
one in which a Union brigadier
general named Stoughton was
sleeping peacefully one dark
and stormy night of the Civil
War. Jack Mosby knew he
would be sleeping peacefully.
If Stoughton hadn't been a po-
litical appointment, he would
have been tossing apprehen-
