Psalms 96; 9th verse ON GOING TO CHURCH: It is said that Roosevelt was once twitted by a friend on the subject of going to church. The gentleman could not under- stand why the ex-president went to church every Sunday, and said so. Roosevelt replied that he went to church to worship God. His friend said "I can worship God in my automobile as I spin through, the country on a^Sunday morningT^^^ suspect you of it!" ^-y "tiere is more in the reply than appear^ No one would ever suspect any man of on casual notice, worshiping God, while spinning through God's country in an automobile; sim- ply because he does not do it. He is not thinking of God whatever. He is thinking only of himself, and his enjoy- ment, and pleasure. We can worship God everywhereâ€"but we do not do it! T;he church is conductive to worship by reason of environ- ment, atmosphere, and appointment. Even the architecture, the furniture, and every outward and visible sign ar^syclio- logically adapted^to arworsHpful attitudeT ~~ Worship is an art. What a pity it is that with many it is a lost art, while with many others it has never been acquired! Only the true worshipper, whose life is rich and sweet by reason of worship) knows-^what so many are missing! i$Mi: :Mo^4ay,^^nhi«^'- ItneetTng Tiel< was .well at* Tuesday, May 8, the Crescent Circle, Mrs. Fred C.
