Too busy to go to chnrch Sunday ?
Some day the angel of death will
tap your shoulder. You cannot tut
him off.
Why not cultivate the spiritual side
of your nature?
The old commandment: "Six days
slult thou tabor and do all thy work; but the seventh
day is a Sabbath" was intended for you. Cold-blooded
economists tell us that men who rest on Sunday do
the most work.
There is a seat for you in thin church. Conic Sunday.
