The Spot I'm The Carpet


When people fill the pews they
help the preacher fill the pulpit.
Sounds like melodrama, doesn't
it-this "spot in the carpet?" You
look about you with apprehension,
half expecting to find deep-dyed
blot of blood upon the floor. But
don't be alarmed; the "spot on the
carpet" of which / write has moth
ing sinister about it. 1t is not a
stain of shame; it is a mark of
honor. Lend me your ears"
will tell you about it.
When I came to the church 1
served until my retirement, l found
that it's floor was covered by car
pet that had been in the place for
many years. No pew rental system
prevailed here, but when the
church was first built number of
families selected a definite pew
as their own and they, or their des-
cendents, have occupied it ever
since. Thus Sunday after Sunday /
saw the same people in the same
places.
Years have passed since this
church was erected and the years
have left their toll. Here, there and
yonder are places where the car
pet has been badly worn, almost
through the floor itself. Here the
faithful have fulfilled the Psalm
lists words "Our feet shall stand
within thy gates" New in this pas
torate, these spots in the carpet
were fine indices for me to know
the Sunday habits of my people,
each spot speaking plainly of some
members loyalty to his church, a
"footnote" indelibly recording if
that member came often to church
or oftener stayed away. Thus some

that the worse the spot the better
the people.
The old carpet has long since
been replaced by a new one.
sometimes think that it would have
been fine to have cut from the old
carpet its most badly worn spot, to
frame it, and to hang it in the vest
ibule with the Masters commend
ing words, well done, thou good
and faithful servant" Thus placed
it would be a perpetual tribute to
the value our elders placed upon
regular church attendance and

But many have different inclina-
tiOns. Their feet find other direct
ions than those that lead to the
church. They wear few spots In
any church's carpet. To these /
say, in words wiser than my own,
Eternity will find you where
your Sundays find you, with or
without God"
In this connection it is interest
ing to note that sometimes those
whose names we seldom associate
with religion often pay tribute to
the church and its value. Some
time ago, as reported by weekly
news journal, Eddie Cantor inter
rupted a numerous broadcast with
these words:
Here in Los Angeles a few days
ago we had very disturbing wind
storm. / was walking along Sun
set Boulevard at the time and like
other pedestrians, l ran for cover
as the gale swept down. There
were a number of stores near by,
but something guided me toward a
building across the street. / stood

utes before / realized where / was.
had taken refuge in the doorway
of church-and it set me think
ing. This world today is going
through something far more threat
ening than a windstorm. Every
single one of us needs refuge OF
one kind or another. And / know
no other place to go for it than, a
church. You know the church must
be a very strong and righteous
thing-fOr it has survived every
enemy it has ever had. And the
book which embodies the principals
of the church-the Bible-is still
on the best-seller list. We are ex-
tremely fortunate to live in a
country where we can worship as
we please and when we please.
Let's make the most of this bless
ing. Go to church, whatever your
race or. creed. You will meet old
friends and make new ones. The
greatest calamity that can befall-
any people is the loss of religion.
Don't let it happen here. Go to
church"
A fine tribute, indeed, and form
an unexpected source, for the
church of Eddie Cantor is a Jewish
synagogue and he is a member of
the Jewish race. Every Christian.
with far richer revelation of
God, has the greater reason to give
heed to Cantor's words and go to
church. Do it this Sunday morning.
