Rev. James c. Brown, DID,. Pastor
Last Sunday Mornings serv-
ice was inspiring as the pastor
chose as his theme, The Gospel
of Comfort, Isaiah 401. He
stated how we can be comforsed
by a kind word when in distress,
and as we travel through the
road of life we must look to the
Lord for He is our comforter.
The pastor wishes to thank the
faithful parishioners who braved
the storm to attend the Worship
services. The Gospel Choir un-
der the direction Of Mrs. Cath
crime Belle is doing fine. All

spreading the news of the Gospel
in song. Mr.. Joseph Robinson,

O'Banyoun's
Observations

pray without ceasing." What
do you think Paul meant when
he wrote that to the Thessaloni-
ans? Is it possible to pray with
out ceasing? Have you ever tried
it? I believe that all such pre-
cepts are to be taken reasonably,
and that this one means that we
should have appointed times to
pray, and do not cease to per-
form according to schedule. But,
it is also possible, and profitable
TO pray through most Of the wax
ing hours of your day. Such in
cessant prayer must depend upon
the kind Of prayer you make. Do
you pray for your God to give
you everything you desire, no
matter at whose expense-to give
you control over persons and
property-ad lib? Is it a case of
me and mine; US and ours?" If
so, feel that much benefit is lost.
When we consider that there is
only one Power in the Universe;
that He is creating a perfect
Universe right before our eyes;
that we are His instruments put
here to "subdue the earth, would
it not be a reasonable prayer to
ask Him TO make US more eff
fcient instruments, exponents of
the Christian program of Peace,
Good VIII, Love, Brotherhood?
l believe that such a program
would be possible constant medi-
tation, and justly styled prayer,
communion with the Infinite, the
Creator. If that is your object
in life - to smooth the way for
your brother, to boost, encour-
age, and to be on the alert con-
stsntly for the opportunities to
do that, it would constitute pray
er without ceasing, in my book.
The Liberal Arts Club had a
very interesting meeting last
Sunday, at the home Of Gladys
Fuller, and gave still another
push to the progressive program
which President-elect John Pow
ell is initiating. Better look
them over tomorrow, when they
have their sermon preached, and
officers installed by Rev. Brown,

difference to a man who can and
has run e-dropping and elbow
rubbing into big business.
The accent is on golf and the
lobbyists know it. If an influence
man has access to a country club
frequented by Congressional
leaders and agency heads, he is
bound to attract attention if he
plays sparkling golf. If he shoots
near 80, he may be invited into
some interesting foursomes.
Some members of Burning Tree
are said to watch the White House
daily list of Presidential engage
mentslike bookies studying scratch
sheets. If no afternoon appoint
ments show on the list, chances are
HE is playing, so they high-tail it
for the club.
Autographed Pictures, Too
"A PROMINENT man in an impor-
tant business, who is one of the
: towns most accomplished name
droppers, arrived at a cocktail
party the other afternoon to report
dejectedly that he'd just come in
from Burning Tree.
Il got out there just as it started
to rain, so / didn't stay" he said.
"And anyway, he'd already left"
No one had to ask who it was
who had left.
But golf is not the only hurdle
for influence peddlers. The auto
graphed picture is a difficult
must, along with the alarm
clock and the low golf score.
This is true to some degree in
every administration. Back in Cal
win Coolidge's day. a sharp-witted
fellow did a thriving business SELL
ing pictures of the chief executive,

wanted to brag on the walls of
their Offices. The pictures were, of
course, personally autographed.

as his predecessor did at the behest
of his staff and friends.
Take the business of getting up
early. In the old days, an influence
merchant got in some of his most
effective licks in the well-uphol-
stored saloons and salons, at cock
tail parties and late soirees around
the fashionable hotels.
Today, however, if a lobbyist
wants to bend the ear of some
ranking federal official, he'll stand
a much better chance scouting ho-
tel coffee shops an hour after dawn.
Sherman Adams, the assistant
to the President and one of the
most influential men in govern
ment. has become a familiar sight
at the Willard Hotel coffee shop
around z am. If the influence
boys track him down there,
he'll doubtless shift his base of
breakfast operations.
Adams is somewhat typical of
the upper echelon of the Republi-
can administration. He shuns most
afternoon and virtually all evening
social affairs, but he is at his desk
about 7:3O every morning. When
officials on slightly lower levels
heard that the top boys were COM
ing to work with the birds, they
had little choice but to be even a
bit earlier themselves.
They're OF Cocktails
Illus many officials on the policy
making level are getting to bed
early and except for very special
occasions, staying off the cocktail
and banquet circuit. This means
the influence peddler has a hard
time tracking down leads.
The 1858 lobbyist cannot ignore
cocktail parties and banquets en-
tirely, of course. Some devil-may-
care member of the new admins
tration might show up.
In such a case, the up-to-date
lobbyist, if he is to stay with the
trend. must make a loud point of
remaining at the party only briefly.

LO, THE POOR LOBBYIST

Along about the second Scotch

please, because l have to stay in
shape" the influence man should
proclaim to one and all that it is
time for him to hit the old hay -
"got a 7:30 breakfast date with so
and-so and I want to talk to him
before he gets tied up for the day."
>-StAying in Shape"
IF OUR 'know-who" specialist
wants to be right in step with the
administration, he'll take the mat
ter of staying in shape" seriously.
Fat men don't seem to be much
in evidence around the President.
Golf produces a more serious
problem than girth. Anybody with
a certain amount of will power can
reduce to some extent, but not
everybody can shoot near-par golf,
no matter how hard they may try.
Today, Washington golf scores
are coming down. And club initia-
ton fees are going up. Burning Tree
which is the club - is almost as
inaccessible as Fort Knox.
The President himself may have
trouble keeping his score consist
emily under 80, but he plays con-
stantly with men who shoot near
80. Top golfers are in style on the
course and in the Congress. Jack
Westland, Republican representa-
tive from the State of Washington,
is the defending national amateur
champion. And Senator Taft
shoots in the eighties.
Of course it would take an in
credibly hassy infuence-seeke to
approach the President or a Cabi-
net member on the course of a pri-
vate club and attempt to do busi-
ness. That isn't the idea. What the
expert lobbyist does is to dash
back to town and report to his rich
and impressionable client, Il saw
Ike out at Burning Tree today"
He may not have been closer to
the President than a well-hit tee
shot, but this makes no material
