11E ATLANTA (ibOKUlAN AN I) N EWB. 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 Regional Bank Fight Resolutions indorsing the movement to secure for Atlanta one of the regional banks provided by the currency bill now pending in Congress, have been adopted by the Atlanta Real Estate Board, and copies have been sent to Senators Hoke Smith and A.

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.
