Maintain Place for Religion


Maintain Place for Religion
Fourth spiritual value: Maintain
4 central place for religion. This
should mean, for the home, a belief
in God as the basis of all life. Such
faith finds expression in ethical and
moral living. Religion is a family
matter. Parents cannot leave such
an important matter to chance. Re-
igion was an integral part of the
old home and must not be left out of
the modern home.
The revival of the family altar
would do much to recover the re-
igion of the American home. Man
was made for God and he is never
his best until he finds peace with
God. Home is never its finest and
purist without strong faith in God.
Calvin Coolidge said, "The greatest
need of America is religion, the e
igion that centers in the home"
In the expression of this value the
home should ally itself with the re-
hgious institutions of the commu-
nifty.
1t will take home and church both
to revive those qualities SO needed
today for the preservation of all that
is dear and enduring. God is the
absolute essential for moral living.
Tolstoy was right when he said,
God is he without whom we can
not live" With true religion the
home a become a powerful force
for positive good and righteousness
in the community.

OBITUARY. MEMORIAM
CARD OF THANKS
IN MEMORY OF
SAMUEL BENTEON

In memory Of my dear father,
Samuel Benton, who passed away
August 25th, l947.
In the Cemetery softly sleeping,
where the flowers gently wave,
He the one l loved so dearly.
You gave no one last farewell,
you said good bye to none,
A weary heart had ceased to
beat before we knew you had
gone.
When the evening stars are fall
ing and / am sitting all alone,
In by heart there comes a long
ing, if you only could come
home.
You shall never be forgotten,
sweetest thoughts will always
linger around the grave
where you are laid.
Somewhere back of the sunset,
lonliness never dies,
Dad" you dwell in the land Of
Glory, near God and the
blue Skies.
Dear Lord, be thou good to him,
keep him in your tender care,
make up for all he suffered,
and everything that was un-
fair.
Someday | hope to meet him
when my days are DER,
on the beautiful Isle of some
where, where sorrows are no
more.
