Pittsburgh. Nov. i8-More than ten million pounds Of copper. prec- ious of war, were saved during the first nine months of io42. by power companies, communications compan- les. railroads, and the Army and Navy, through the use of wire. rods and strand made of copper welded over a heavy steel core, instead Of 100 per cent copper.

Preacher Uses News Stories For Sermons That Pack Church Five Times Every Sunday
By NEA Service

Uy NEA SerVlce
 St. Petersburg, Fla, Nov. 17-Dr. Paul R. Hortin, 38, youthful be- spectacled pastor of First Avenue Methodist Church here, packs em In for Sunday services in a way many Broadway impresario might envy. Such crowds respond to his appearances that he has to preach to his congregation in relays.
 He has an attendance of 5000 at his services on Sundays during the winter season, in church with only 1000 seating capacity. The SRO sign is hung up five times every Sunday. He handles the crowds by delivering his morning sermon three times and the evening sermon twice.
 Some of the congregation are Fepeates, and sit through for the second and third times because they tell me didn't do so we'll on No. l or No. g." he explains with a smile.
 SUCCESS FORMULA
 Appearing more like a successful business man than a minister, Dr. Hortin says his formula for pack ing 'em in is not copyrighted. Here it is:
 Many of the better known Bible stories have grown dull and lost their effectiveness from repetition. So I dig up new ones. I use every day happenings and quote from the newspapers. Let your congregations think, let them cry. let them laugh. Give them a picture and above all send them away happy" he ex- plained.
 A graduate of Garrett Biblical Institute at Northwestern Uniyer- sity. the young minister employs a simple, conversational vocabulary and quiet delivery. He avoids Theological hair-splitting,
 The second part of his formula as as important as the first. Make the members of the church work. Give them something important to do and then see that it's done"
