1 ‘GO-TO-CHURCH DAY'
Ministers in many of the churched
i, f Atlanta are making preparations
o take care of overllow congrega
tions next Sunday morning and even-
ng.
Prom the instant response the
< io-to-Church Day" movement has
received they are confident that the
pews will not be sufficient to accom
modate all who come
'My church Is pretty well filled
nearly everv Sunday," said the Rev.
O. W. Daniel Thursday. ‘T don't know
what I am going to do nHh all the
«rtra people who will come. Of
I ©an nee chairs tor some of
them, but I am afraid others will
n*Te to stand
'TDreryone Is mthnslaotlo over the
proposed 'Go-to-Ohwch Day,' and it
looks as though I wa» 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.
Tn front of the First Baptist Church,
of which he is pastor, a sign with big
letters tells the passersby that n$xt
Sunday is "Go-to-Ohurch Day," and
•hat 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
the day for Atlanta and the oppor
tunity to make a striking demonstra
tion of the power of the churches
here. Dr. Caleb A. Ridley, of the
Central Baptist Church, made a spe-

Georgia and has high hopes that the
observance will be State-wide in an
other year. A number of cities, in
spfte of the short time in which they
have had to prepare for a church-
going campaign, have taken up the
j project this year and will observe the
I day with Atlanta.
The plan ha3 struck a popular
j 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 pastors of the various churches
are asked to fill out the return postals
sent to them and mall them Imme
diately after the evening service. A
notation should be made of the total
attendance at the two eemricee, to
gether with the normal or average
attendance, so that a fair idea of the
Increase due to "Qo-to-Church Day"
may be obtained.
Because of change of residence and
pastorate®, 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 mall 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 pf Success,
Says Dr. McConnell
Dr. Lincoln McConnell, pastor of
the Baptist Tabernacle In Atlanta,
gave away some of the secrets of Ills
pulpit oratory while he wav In De
troit, Mich., this week. One of his
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
•hink 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-
piess an audience of women unless
lie 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 -the 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 "

BEGIN I SALTS
Flush Your Kidneys Occasionally
if You Eat Meat Regularly.
No man or woman who eats meat
regularly can make a mistake by flush
ing ihe kidneys occasionally, says a
well-known authority. Meat forms uric
acid, which clogs tlie kidney pores so
they sluggishly Alter 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 Jad 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 w’lll -then act fine. This famous
salts is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with 11thla.
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
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
com plications.—Advt.
