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.

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.

Miss Keller will then pre sent her lecture. '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.” G.

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.
