Striking out at many people who
put the church last In their ex-
pense account. and who. when
times get bad. always cut down on
the church purse. the Rev. Robert
Pittman. pastor OF Tabernacle
Baptist church. reminded all good
Christians In his talk. Sunday
morning. that the church Is a
mighty constructive force and fac
tor In the life OF the nation.
The speaker said: why are the
beer gardens. the dance hall and
all other such places flourishing
in patronage. while the churches
languish from neglect and indiffer-
cnce OF those who are pledged to
supper, them? There must come a
higher appraisal OF the service OF
the church and rededication OF
the Christians to service. who are
pledged to carry out Gods word
and work"
Continuing the Rev. Mr.. Pittman,
declared:
THE Negro is a good Garner OF

how TO earn money. but in many
