TORS PREPARE FOR
BIG OVERFLOW MEETINGS
ON ‘GO-TO-CHURCH DAY
M r.liters in many of the churches
| of Atlanta are making preparations
j to take care of overflow congrega-
’!on* next Sunday morning and even-
[ ;ng
From the instant response the
j ; > to-Church Day” movement has
| rr , olved they are confident that the
pews will not be sufficient to accom
modate all who come
My church is pretty well filled
nearly every Sunday,” said the Rev.
C. W Daniel Thursday, “I don’t know
what. I am going to do with all the
extra people who will oome. Of
roirrpe, T can nee ohatrs for some of
rr>«m, but I am afraid other* will
have to stand.
TVeryone Is enthusiastic over the
proposed ‘Go-to-Church Day,’ and it
looks as though T was going to have
practically my entire membership
erf from the youngest to the old
est."
Dr. Daniel Advertises.
Notwithstanding Dr. Daniel’s ex
piation that many of the churches
will he crowded beyond their capac-
m he has not ceased to tell his peo
ple about the day to he observed in
Atlanta for the first time next Sun-
'3v and to urge every one of them to
.»e present.
Fr front of the First Baptist Church,
of which he is pastor, a. sign with big
otters tells the passersby that next
Sunday is "Go-to-Church Day,” and
I 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
•he day for Atlanta and the oppor-
• unity to make a striking temonstra-
ion of the power of the churches
er» Dr. Caleb A. Rid.ey, of the
entral Baptist Church, made a spe-
,131 trip to Atlanta in the middle of
he week in order to get his congre
gation thoroughly interested in the
project.
All Georgia Aroused.
ifp was conducting a series of suc
cessful revival meetings in Athens
and was urged to remain there
hrough the week, but felt that his
place was in Atlanta because of the
Go-to-Church Day,” in the observ-
<nee of which his church will partici
pate next Sunday.
Dr. Ridley reports a keen interest
in the movement in other parts of
Georgia apfd has high hopes that the
observance will be State-wide in an
other year. A number of cities, in
spito 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 pian has 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 and afterward.
Advice to Pastors.
The paotors 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 the figures on an ordinary pos-
I 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 r ext Monday morn
ing and the result announced at once.
Helen Keller, Deaf,
Blind, to Lecture
! Pulpit Flattery Is
Secret of Success,
Says Dr. McConnell
Dr. Lincoln McConnell, pastor of
the Baptist Tabernacle In Atlanta,
save away some of the secrets of his
pulpit oratory while he was In De
troit, Mich., this week. One of his
bite of advice, according to a dis
patch from Detroit, waa that the
Treacher should natter the women of
his congregation by praising their
beauty, and the men by making them
think they are thinkers.
"A preacher can't attract an au
dience of men unless he makes them
think 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 don’t get down without first
thinking down,” he said in talking
about tile psychology of sin. "Men
don’t get up without first 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
home and say the preacher was look
ing straight at her when he said so.”
Realty Men Indorse

Resolutions indorsing the movement

Smith and A. O. Bacon, and William
Schley Howard and other Georgia Con
gressmen.
The board also authorises them to call
upon the local real estate interests for
any assistance they may need.

IF BACK HURTS
BEGIN OH SILTS
Flush Your Kidneys Occasionally
if You Eat Meat Regularly.
No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make a mistake by flush
ing the kidneys occasionally, says a
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 back 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 .lad Salts from
any reliable pharmacy and take a table
spoonful In a glass of water before
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 ami can not
injure; makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-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
complications.—Advt.
A Certain Young
Man
worked his way up to a good position and for some years hgd been
in receipt of a splendid salary.
He had the confidence and respect of his employers. They de
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 lie had saved no money, but had spent his salan as
he received it—frittered it away.
Needless to say, he didn’t get the partnership.
