IL of the pioneers and early he
roes of aviation, died in Paris of a
heart attack at the age of sixty

The Sunday After Ascension.
1000 Morning prayer and sermon
HOO Church school
BY their continued absence from
any church, many of our citizens
act as though they could create good
characters in a goddess atmosphere.
That is about as wise as trying to
grow garden on concrete pave
ment. When we see what micro
scopic emphasis falls upon the re-
ligious life in this community there
should never be any gossip about
any boy who lands in Jail. A god
less society and good character SIM
ply do not go together. To give any
community an atmosphere of god
illness men must have a Time, a
Place, and a Method for worship.
Our modern pantheism, which as
serts that a man may worship God
in the great out Of doors, generally
results in this, that the Sunday out
of doors worshippers seldom think
of God or calls upon Him until
goes wrong. And then he
prays negatively.
There are eight places of worship
in this town. Why don't you find
one next Sunday morning, go there
and help us in building up the re-
ligious life of this community?
On Sunday evening, May 3lst, at
S o'clock The 1T. Rev. Edward M.
Gross, S.E.D., Bishop of the Mission
airy District of Spokane, will make
his annual visitation to st. Paurs
Mission in Kennewick. This will be
q combined service between the Mis-
sion in Pasco and Kennewick. The
Bishop will preach and the Sacra-
ment of Holy Confirmation will be
administered. We shall welcome
the members of the community to
this service. At the close of the SER
vice there will be social hour out
on the lawn so that the people of
the community will have an oppor-
tunity to meet the Bishop. The
Octet which sang the Easter serv-
ice so beautifully will also be pres
emit to assist.
