Watch the opportunity go past? If you, an influential man, and all of us are to a greater or less extent, saw that you were hindering the life of a fellowman, would you say, "I have no interest in him/' and dismiss the thought? Not a very natural way for a man to act, is it? But in one form or an other, how often are you guilty? That home of yours, your children; what consideration for the future are you taking for them? Not merely in matters financial, for at the same time that you might be the most liberal man living; you might be hampering the lives of your family in a manner that may never be remedied. Have your children received from you what is their* s to expect, a Christian example? It is true that the Christian training comes in almost its entirety from the mother, but without your co-operation in the matter of example, what she can do is not going to amount to so much. Men, the church was designed for you just as much as it was designed for any one. There is no nobler view for you than that The Church Is a Think a minute of the immense amount of influence you spread about as you participate in your business day after day. How easily that influence might work for one cause or another! Prove this view to yourself men. There is no better way of convincing yourselves of the truth than by giving the church enough of your time to state her case. You apply that idea to your business every day, and to' refuse to do it in this relation would be to admit the fault of your own system. Spend part of the day to-morrow in church; spend it in reverent attitude. Take the initiative now by determining that to-morrow you will take the family and * GO TO CHURCH This advertisement has been authorized by and Is being paid for by the Associated Churches of Harrlsburg.
