THE CHURCH
The church is the state’s hope of
stability.
For reasons of citizenship come to
church.
Kindred failures—absenteeism from
the ballot box and from church.
Every nomattendant virtually votes

The church stands for the best
things—line up.

—the church. !
Wherever the church goes she car
ries nevr light and life.
Worship steadies the storm-tossed
ship of the soul. Come to church.
Weary after a week of the world?
