The home, of! i- elder thin the ch'j~ce * These two institutions form the foundation for -'ill sociai aiui spiritual compacts. If we, like Samson, could reach out and pull down these two restitutions, we coulii pull down with tbem our entire sociai order. Many evil attacks have beer made upon these two institutions. but they still stand as a mighty bulwark to all that we hold dear and sacred in life. In the home there is father, mother and the child. These three make up the average and the ideal home. A Christian father, a Christian mother and a Christian child make the home most like Heaven here on eartii. Is your home Christian? if not whose fault is it ? You can have a! Christian home. The Christian home is the best | friend and supporter that Christ's church has here oh eavth. When the Christian home and the Christian church work together for the ad-j vancement of Christ's kingdom, bothj are mutually helped and blessed and: Christ is honored. wvvvww?vvw*rww I ** > < 9 I A' I ?r_^ ?
