PASTORS PREPARE FOR
BIG OVERFLOWS/ MEETINGS
ON ‘G0-T0-GH0RCH BAY
Alii:inters in many of tlie churched
of Atlanta are making: preparations
to take care *>£ overflow congrega
tions next Sunday morning and even-
n*.
HYom the irritant response the
"Go-to-Church Day” movement has
received they are confident that the
pews will no: be sufficient to^accom
modate all who come.
“My church is pretty well filled
nearly every Sunday,” said the Hev.
( M. Daniel Thursday. “I don’t know
what I am going to do with all the
extra people who will come. . Of
course, 1 can use chairs for some of
them, but I am afraid others will
ave to stand.
“Everyone is enthusiastic over the
proposed 'Go-to-Church Day,’ and it
looks as though i wam going to have
practically my entire membership
here, from the youngest to the old
est.”
Dr. Daniel Advertises.
Notwithstanding Dr. Daniel’s ex
pectation that many of the churches
will be crowded beyond their capac
ity, he has not ceased to tell his peo
ple about the day to be observed in
Atlanta for the first time next Sun
day and to urge every one of them to
be present.
In front of the First Baptist Church,
of which he is pastor, a sign with big
letters tells the passersby that next
Sunday is “Go-to-Church Day,” and
that they are cordially invited to at
tend the services within.
Dr. Daniel is a firm believer in all
kinds of legitimate advertising and is
using every means to insure that his
own church has every person inside it
next Sunday that it possibly can hold.
The other pastors are no less
aroused over the great possibilities of
ihe day for Atlanta and the oppor- |
tunity to make a striking demonstra
tion of the power of the churches J
here. Dr. Caleb A. Ridley, of the :
Central Baptist Church, made a spe
cial trip to Atlanta in the middle of
the week in order to get his congre
gation thoroughly interested in the
project.
All Georgia Aroused.
He was conducting a series of suc
cessful revival meetings in Athens
and was urged to remain there
through the week, but felt that his
place was in Atlanta because of the
“Go-to-Church Day,” in the observ
ance of which his church will partici
pate next Sunday.
Dr. Ridley reports a keen interest
in the movement in other parts of

Georgia and has high hopes that the
observance will be State-wide in an
other year. A number of cities, in
f'pitc of the short time in which they
have had to prepare for a church
going campaign, have taken up the
project this year and will observe the
day with Atlanta.
The plan hae struck a popular
chord of approval with ministers and
laity and those at the head of the
movement are considering how best
all of Georgia may be included in the
observance next year anu afterward.
Advice to Pastors.
The 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-Church Day”
may be'obtained.
Because of change of residence and
pastorates, some of the return postals
may not reach their proper destina
tion. In such cases the pastor should
Place tlie 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 next Monday morn
ing and the result announced at once.

'Pulpit Flattery Is
Secret of Success,
Says Dr. McConnell
Dr. Lincoln McConnell, 'pastor of
; the Baptist Tabernacle in Atlanta.
gave away some of tlie secrets of his
( puipit oratory while he wa.*? in De-
) treit, Mich., this week. One ot his
j bits of advice, according to a dis
patch from Detroit, was that the
preacher should flatter the women of
his congregation by praising their
beauty, and the men by making them
think yhe> are thinkers.
“A preacher can’t attract an au
dience of men unless he makes them
tMnk they are thinkers; he can t im
press an audience of women unless
he gets? In a word in flattery of their
beauty,” declared Dr. McConnell.
“Men dos’t get down without flrst
thinking down,” he said in talking
about the psychology of sin. “Men
don’t get up without flrst thinking up.
“If the preacher starts his address
to women by affirming that the au
dience is the handsomest body of
women he ever talked to, the home
liest woman in the audience will go
heme arid say the preacher was look
ing straight at her when he said so.”

A Certain Young
Man
worked his way up to a good position and for some years had been j
in receipt of a splendid salary.
He had the confidence and respect of his employers. They de- j
cided to take him into the firm on condition that he make an in
vestment of $1,500. It was a big opportunity for this young man
—a chance of a lifetime.
Imagine his regret when he stood before his employers and
confessed that he had saved no money, but had spent his salary as
he received it—frittered it away.
Needless to say, he didn’t get the partnership.

IF BUCK HURTS
HIGH ON SALTS
Flush Your Kidneys Occasionally I
if You Eat Meat Regularly.
No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make a mistake by flush
ing tlu*' kidneys occasionally, says u
well-known authority. Meat forms uric
acid, which clogs the kidney pores so
they sluggishly filter or strain only part
of the waste and poisons from the
blood; then you get sick. Nearly all
rheumatism, headaches, liver trouble,
nervousness, constipation, dizziness,
sleeplessness, bladder disorders come
from sluggish kidneys.
The moment you feel a dull ache in
the kidneys or your hack hurts, or if
the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of
sediment, irregular of passage or at
tended by a sensation of scalding, get
about four ounces of Jad Salts from
any reliable pharmacy and take a table-
spoonful in a glass of water b» fore
breakfast for a few days, and your kid
neys will then act fine. This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with lithia.
and has been used for generations to
flush clogged kidneys and stimulate
them to activity, also to neutralize the
acids in urine so It no longer causes
irritation, thus ending bladder disor
ders.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and can not
injure; makes a delightful effervescent
litnia-water drink, which all regular
meat eaters should take now and then to
keep the kidneys clean and the blood
pure thereby avoiding serious kidney
com i >lications. —Ad vt.
