Advice to Pastors. 'Plie pastors of the various churches are asked to fill out the return postals sent to them-and mail them imme diately after the evening service. A notation should be made of the total attendance at the two services, to gether with the normal or average attendance, so that a fair idea of the increase due to ‘‘Go-to-C'hurch Day” may be obtained. Because of change of residence and pastorates, some of the return f^mtals may not reach their proper destina tion. In such cases the pastor should place the figures on an ordinary pos tal card and mail it Sunday night after the evening service to the Church Editor of The Georgian. A compilation of the attendance will be made the i ext Monday morn ing and the result announced at once.

Pulpit Flattery Is Secret of Success, Says Dr. McConnell Dr. Lincoln McConnell, pastor of j j ihe Baj iist Tabernacle in Atlanta.! gave away some of the secrets of his j pulpit oratory while lie was* in De troit, Mich., this week, one of his j bits of advice, according to a Vlis- : patch from Detroit, was that the I j readier should flatter the women of | his congregation by praising their : beauty, and the men by making them * hink they are thinkers. ‘A preacher can’t attract an uu- c ierice of men unless he makes them think they are thinkers; he can’t im press an audience of women unless he get* in a word in flattery of their ibeuutj.” declared Dr. McConnell. ‘ Men don’t get down without first thinking down,” he said in talking about the psychology of sin. “Men don't get up without first thinking up. “If the preacher starts ms address to women by affirming that the au dience is the handsomest body of women he ev< r talked i<». the home liest woman in the audience will g<» borne and say the preacher was look ing straight at her when he said so."
