Thursday, December 4, 1924. 10 SOLVE PUZZLE Pittsburg, Dec. 4.—Crossword puzzle enthusiasts flocked to the Knoxville Baptist church recent ly where the Rev. George F. Mc Elvein, the pastor, before launch ing into his sermon, let his con gregation solve one of the famil iar spaced squares, which con cealed the words of his text. The puzzle, containing 144 Spaces, was displayed on a large blackboard in the front of the au ditorium, printed copies of the definitions were distributed among the pews and the congregation was invited to fill in the spaces. Many Experts Attend. Fifteen minutes was alloted for solution, and as many experts had been attracted by the announce ment of the novel feature, all the needed 95 words were called out from the pews within the time set. It then was pointed out that the complete puzdle contained the words from Proverbs i 10, which the minister used as the theme for* his sermon, u My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not. ft The Rev. Mr. McElvein’s ser mon was an arraignment of those persons who, for their own profit, ensnare the young and impression able in evil ways and a plea to the tempted to stiffen resistance. Defends Use of Puzzle. The minister said he believed this use of the cross word puzzle to be an innovatidn in Bible study and he did not believe it needed any defense. Speaking of his reason for adopting the puzzle as a stimulus to church attendance, he said: *4 Wherever we go we see a puzzle. Folks traveling back and forth on the train find it a source of great pleasure. If it is so pop ular, why not find a use for it ing the church programs? This is a novel, but I believe highly instructive, Bible drill many of the words Chosen have a Biblical background.” .
