. sees ecnoitcns as 'hey are,, looks,
.facts in the face and takes Qod at l
His word,, and while surroundings
V? could be mucli worse, they also could' :
be much better. We as church mem- :
------ bci s-vrhoutd abstain from all yppear- i
ances cf evil and strive for the high- i
eat and best in our owh lifov and i
those around, us, and also .strive for <
nlgher achievements and attainments
of our chujchesl We are not doing
v much- to' promote and build up oar i

Services. We are not doing much to
promote and build up bur churches
and community if we do not oppose
blockading. The church member should
be oat- and out an! always against
_ this curse, and yet I am told there
are so called church members who
actually aid and abet in.this nefa'r
, jous business. The sooner such people
are expelled the bettor it will bs
for our churches. . *".
The writer mentioned card playing
as oine of the evils of some church
members. This is nothing in their
favor, but card playing and other
similar social games are not so bad
when there is no betting. Connected
with it daneing. Sabbath nrofaninv

The trend cf the times is away *
