CHRISTIAN INDEX MONTH.
In connection with a state
wide effort to secure 10,000 new
subscribers to the Christian In
dex during thG month of March,
the Hightower association is ask
ed to furnish at, least one hun
dred of this number. Members
of the Executive Committee
present at a recent meeting of
the same heartily endorsed this
movement and hereby earnestly
request that each and every pas
tor put the matter before his
church or churches at the March
conference meeting, present the
claims of the Index and get the
church to agree on seme definite
number to be aimed at in that
church and then fcr a
canvass of the membership to be
made at once for securing just
as many subscribers as possible.
Brother pastors, a solemn res
ponsibility rests on us as pastors
to see to it that our people are
kept informed about Baptist af
fairs. Certainly no better med
ium of information could be plac
ed in their hands and homes than
our state Baptist paper, -which is
nowed and being operated by the
Ceorgia Baptist Convention, not
for pecuniary gain but for the
information of our Baptist folks.
It is really being published at a
financial loss to the denomina
tion at the present price of $2,00
a year.
Will not every pastor and eve
ry leader therefore do his best in
making this effort, which may
mean so much for the glory of
our Lord and the advancement of
His kingdom in the earth. Broth
er laymen, encourage your pas
tor to lead out in this important
matter in your church
Fraternally.

Sunday was a nice day. Won

right or wrong? We believe the
old saying must be true now-a-a j
days—every fellow for himself
and the devil for all, as the little
song says, just look how this'
world has made a change. Times!
have changed, people havechang
ed, nothing seems like it used to.
Divine services have changed.
Preaching is not like it used to
be, yet the Bible tells us the
Lord never changes, the same
today,, yesterday and forever,
without the slightest change,
What will the day of judgment
bring? Or what does our Lord
mean when he says that they
shall comeTn from the east and
the west, from the north and the
south, and set down with Abra
ham and Isaac in your father's
kingdom and yourselves cast out
solemn thoughts. So some peo

CHURCH GOING.
Theodore Roosevelt’s church creed was contained in nine
mngent paragraphs. We quote a few :
Yes, I know all the excuses. I know that you can wor
ship the Creator in a grove of trees or by a running brook,
or in a man’s own house just as well as in the church. But
I also know that the average man does not wot ship that way
He may not hear a good sermon at the church but he will
hear a sermon by a good man who. with his good wife, is
engaged all the week in making hard lives a little easier.
He will listen to and take part m the reading of some beau
tiful passages from the Bible, And if he is not familiar with
the Bible he has suffered a loss.
He will take part in singing some good hymns.
He will meet and work and speak to good quiet neighbors.
Pe will come away feeling a little more charitable toward all
the world, even toward those excessively foolish young men
who regard church going as a “soft” performance.
There are all kinds of businesses in the world blit the most
important of all is the business of mothering. Children need
housing, schooling, schooling, dressing, feeding and a lot of
other things but what they need most of all is mothering.
When the mother takes her baby up in her arms and cud
dles him close and loves him hard, it is not a mere gester,
nor an empty impulse; it is the outporing of her love into his
little life. She is charging his subconscious life with the mag
netism of the greatest force known to earth —love.
A child that can iook back and see his earliest recollec
tions steeped in mother love has decided advantage over the
child no such memories. For he knows, in spite of
all the disillusions and betrayals and bitterness of later years
that there is such a thing as absolutely pure and unselfish af
fection.
Cynics may sneer and pessimists may ‘‘pooh-poo,” but
when that child in later years is tempted to say that ail men
lie, that all women deceive and there is no one to be trusted,
he finds he cannot say it, for there is one who he knows
would give her life for him. The man who has had a good
mother can never wholly lose faith. Tie can never be utterly
bad and hard, for the memory of his mother’s force and
aoice is forever a live spot of tenderness.
A man may play the fool for years, he may make sport of
the ten commandments, but if he has been well mothered he
has a line that will pull him back sometime to decency. A
good mother does more good than all the policemen in the
country.
There is a little crypt under the altar in every man’s heart
where only mother enters for she alcfne holds the key.
Believe in yourself. That is the way to make other peo
ple believe in you, and it is the way to become what you
want to be.
Unless you puse yourself forward, others will push you
back. If you never try to do more than you.have always
done, you will never know how much you can do. Success
will only smile on him who proves himself brave.
It is the people who have believed thoroughly in them
selves and their missions who have made the world believe
in them. Napoleon was a great general because it never oc
curred to him that he could lose. Luther changed the thought
of Europe and the histoay of the world because he believed
so thoroughly that he was right and nothing could daunt
him. Columbus gained the suppoit of a queen and found a
world because his belief in himself inspirrd confidence in oth
ers; Fulton believed in his steamship in the face of a jeer
ing population. History has hundreds of such cases which
prove the valce of belief in oneself. For, unless you believe
in yourself, knowing yourself better than any one else knows
you, how can you expect others to believe in you?
A man may die without a penny, but if his children can
remember a noble nature they have inherited millions. No
patrimony can equal the glory of his virtue and noble deeds,
though they be unkuown to others.
