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. Cnas, TANARUS, Brown, Chm’n Ex, Com.

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 ple can carelessly,reject now yet, I oh, yet the sad dag is coming I when some shall call for the i rocks and mountains to cover them or hide them from Who wiil it be? Reader, think.

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. NO- 7
