"Put and Take" Isn't always a gamble. Sometimes It Is a sure thing When you put more efforts into your work, you'll take more profit out of It. It Is the same In going to church as anything else. What you get out of church depends largely on what "you put Into it. "There Is no time like the pleasant" The faith that really moves mountains is not above using dynamite and steam shovels." "Truth is mighty," says the adage.

"Yes," retorts the hard-boiled cynio, "mighty scarce." "Somebody suggests that Lot's wife passed some other -woman and looked back to see what she was wearing." "For every woman who makes a fool out of a man, there Is another woman who makes a man out of a fool." "We are not what we think we are. We are what we think." After all, perhaps, it is better to remain silent and ibe thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt. "If others went to church no- more than how long would it take this town to die?" Be content with what you have, but not with what you are. Every town has several men who say everything with hamimers. Let the church tiave your consideration.

We will make you feel at home. Church of the Brethren, A. L. Patrick, Pastor. My church; your 'church; everybody's church.
