forth" To-day is the only day you
have to live"
There are many things you know
you should do but you keep putting
them off until tomorrow. You know
that you should make your decision
for Christ and follow Him but you
put it off from day to day. You know
that you should turn from your life
of sin and in repentance and faith be-
gin new life for Christ. You know
you should read your Bible, pray and
go to church. Tomorrow" you say,
Il will do these things" But as long
as you persist in putting these things
off until tomorrow, you will never
do them, for there is no tomorrow.
Today is the only day you will ever
have. Accept Christ today and live
the Christian life today. Now is the
accepted time-now is the day of
Salvation."2 Cor. 81.

The lesson passage for Sunday Is
found in Acts 2:37-47 and Ephesians
Ais, with several other passages
which will be quoted before we fin

A HAPPY TIME IN CHURCH
u FAD Acts 2:4147, and you will
~ find picture of group Of very
happy people. Think Of it, three
thousand people protesting faith in
Jesus and receiving baptism in one
dayl But read on-they were not
only happy at church, but they were
happy because they were in the
church. They continued steadfastly
in the apostles teachings and fell
lowship and breaking of bread and
prayer.
They praised God and had favor
with al the people. By their daily
living they were convincing the
wofld that fellowship In Christ b
net only good on Sunday while we
are At the meeting house, but good
every day.
The happy homes are the homes
where Christian fellowship abounds.

Psalm 1871.
THAT is poetry, you will agree,
L but It is also actual testimony
not only of the Psalmist, but Of
countless junior boys and girls
throughout our land who eagerly
await the sound of the church bells.
Boys and girls delight to 60 to Sum
day school and worship when the
life of the church is pervaded with
Christian fellowship. There they
meet the finest boys and girls in the
community.
BELONGING TO THE CHURCH
THE passage in Acts 2:37-H tells
1 us how certain people, after
hearing the great sermon by Peter,
asked how they might be saved. He
told them:
Repent, and be baptized every
one of you in the name Of Jesus
Christ for the remission Of sins, and
We shall receive the gift Of the Holy
Spirit"
When We invite intermediate
friends to attend Sunday school
and worship services with US, and
they come to know Of the love OF
God, they, too, will want to be
saved. 1t is then the high privilege
Of Christian boys and girls to lead
their friends to accept Jesus
Christ as Saviour, and come into
the church.
In Ephesians 4:4-6, we read these
words: There is one body and one
Spirit, just as you were called to the
one hope that belongs to your call
one Lord, one faith, one baptism
one God and Father of us all, who
is above all and through ali and ir

The MIA has proposed an elm

commission is said to be going
along. However, if the New York

Judge w. Calvin Chestnut is
sued an INDUCTION restraining the
city from enforcing a park regula-
ton reserving three golf courses
for white persons, in support of a
complaint against the city by
Charles E. Law. He ruled that
Negroes are entitled to play golf
on all four of the municipal golf
courses and said that facilities at
the Carroll park course for Ne
groes are not Substantially
equal" to those for white golfers.
AT varience to this idea was
the arrest of 13 Negroes and II
whites, all members of the Mary
land Progressive party, who
sought to put the local park
boards racial segregation policy
to a test. They had descended up
on Bruid Hill park and began ten
mis- matches, but the Negroes in
the group refused to leave the
park when ordered tod O SO by
police. A crowd of about 500 gath
cred to watch the incident. When
police moved in and started to
force the Negroes out by picking
some of them up bodily and carry
ing them to patrol wagons, some
of the spectators shouted, "Is this
America or Nazi Germany"
Twenty TENNIS players were ar
rested and then four spectators
were hauled in. Most of them were
charged with disorderly conduct
and violation of segregation regu-
lations. One was charged with re-
sisting arrest.
Fourteen were released, three

conduct in the park and four sad
demonstrations in front of a police

 The third Easter since the end ing of World War II, it was mark ed traditionally with sunrise serv- ices at the amphitheater in the na- tional cemetery at Arlington. There a cross of white lilies was placed on the tomb of the un- known soldier.
