THE ATLANTA CiEOKGIAN AND NEWS. CHIEF END OF EVERY MAI !lfS’ DESTINY J W0RSHP.SAYS0R.0UB0SE In nn eloquent explanation of tho object* of "Go-to-Ohurch" Day, the Rev H M. Du Bose, pastor of the First Methodist Church, Monday urged io-oj>eration by all to make next Sunday the greatest flay In th< history of Atlanta churches. Dr. Du Bose, In a statement writ ten for The Georgian, said "Why a 'Go-to-Church' Day? Be cause It emphasizes an Idea funda mental in human happiness and stresses & principle indispensable to the soundness and perpetuity of so ciety. “But to fully answer this question we must go back and ask and answer another and deeper question: Why go to church at all? What is the ob ject of - hurchgolng in general" “The first and truest answer is that tlie highest end of man is to wor ship God, and the visible altars of the organized church are the places where that worship can be offered in < omellness and where it will have the most certain and enduring effect upon the fellowships of men Worship Is Duty. “It is not only the chief end of ♦ very man to worship God, but it is the destiny of nations to do so. Moses declared to Pharaoh that the object of the liberation of the Israelites was that they might go into the wilder ness to worship God. “As nations and peoples advance into the higher stages of their devel opment, the duty, as the need, of worship is augmented. The highest note In literature Is the note of wor ship. It is only truth to say that the constant and confident fact In written history Is also that of worship. “This note and this fact are pro phetic. The German poet put the whole philosophy and theology of these into -trophe of his ‘Hymn to the Eter nal :' Spurs us. O, God; We will acknowledge Thee!' “Another object of churchgoing is to enlarge and conserve the Individ ual life. The element of reverence and the life-impelling respect for law which are now so much needed in the lawmakers and citizenry of our na tion can only be had as the result of close and sympathetic contact with holy things. Food for Character. “Character Is derived from partic ipation in those duties which are rec ognized as coming from the divine. That the object of churchgolng is to minister to and sanctify the whole body of society Is a proposition worthy the study of both statesman ship and faith. “The church not only stands for tho greatest truths ever promulgated to Our coals will please you. Call us. CARROLL & HUNTER. man, hut It lives to make these ef fective in the world's life and thought. Hut great as Is this task tfet the church, it is one which can not re* a< complished tntough any form of force or compulsion. It is one which has to do only with the freely volun teered powers of men’s minds, and the captivity to which they willingly lend their ears and hearts “This is the broad platform and philosophy of our ‘Go-to-Ghurch’ Day, a spontaneous idea which has been taken up by practically all the pas tors of tlds city, Sunday next, De cember 14, being settled upon as the day for making that interesting test. "On that day it is hoped to see the sittings In all our churches filled to overflowing. Pastors Pushing Project. “To accomplish this end, the pas tors have appointed, or will to-day appoint, committees whose work will be to set every possible influence In motion to bring to church on next Sunday a larger part of Atlanta's population than has ever before been so assembled. “This will not only emphasize the great Idea already discussed, hut will help to form a churchgolng habit which the promoters believe is des tined to tell on the lives and pros perity of Atlanta’s churches for years to come, “The services next Hunday will, by resolution already adopted, take the line of emphasizing the work and principles of the Men and Religion Forward Movement, a movement which Is Itself of and by the churches. “Special programs of music will also be arranged, ami the whole spir it of the day’s efforts will be to show the value of the church to the world." , Trails Thieves by Leak From Gin Jug Memphis, Dec. » Sergeant Jim Peters trailed two robers by gin that leaked from a broken Jug carried In a suit case, finally capturing them.

Another encouraging piece of news | received Monday morning was thaf the Atlanta Typographical Union had led the way for the other labor unions in the city by subscribing $100 to the fund, in addition to substantial amounts already given by individual members. This official evidence of friendship and good will was ex tremely gratifying to the Oglethorpe leaders. The rush of subscriptions in the first week of the campaign has en couraged the workers to believe firm ly that every dollar of the $250,000 will be subscribed by Christmas Eve, whereas it was at first thought the fund could not be completed before the first of the coming year. “The way It looks this morning,” said the Rev.
