WE SPECIALIZE IN ALL KINDS OF Radiator Repair Brake Relining Brendell's Garage Depot Street i A Six-Inch Sermon By Rev. Robcrl H. Harper THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE j CHURCH HEGARDING ALCOHOL Lesson for July 20: I Corinthians1 5: 9-13; Titus 2:1-8; Golden Text: Matthew 5:13 In this lesson Paul makes it plain that he is writing concerning faith- j j less persons within the church, i ; Among evil-doers within there is the j drunkard and the inference is that; ! the church should purge itself of' :such and set a right example unto! i those without. "Put away the wicked ] \ man from among yourselves." the j apostle writes Yet how often churches tolerate drinking on the! i part of some members :f only they lare good contributor.-, or prominent : citizens whom they hesitate to of: fend. j In tile second part of the lesson j Paul gives his advice to several age groups. Aged men are urged to be temperate, aged women to be reverent. young women to be sober! minded, and young men to be sober | minded, showing themselves as exj aniples of good works. Drinking is on the increase in this j count: y. according to a press, release [of May 31. It showed that AmeriI cans had consumed 360.105,194 galj Ions of alcoholic drinks during the ; first o.uarter of 1941. This was an ncrease of more than seven million i gallons and an increase of more than V6.00fl.000 in money spent. Manifestly somebody should be : concerned about this steady increase lot drinking in our country. Having formerly considered the responsibility of the individual and of the i home toward the use of alcoholic beverages, let us think today of the responsibility of the church. Who would respect the church if it did no1, take a firm stand against the liquor traffic? As we believe the , church should make no compromise with this or any other evil, let us ! be more sincere, more active i through the church in our opposition to this intrenched evil.

J., July 12.?The International Christian Endeavor Society convention called today for a return of prohibition " if the people of the country arc to live together in sobriety and happiness." In a resolution, the 6.000 delegates recalled that 30 years ago in a similar convention here the society coined the slogan. "A Saloonless Nation by 1920." They added: 'Through the unceasing efforts of Christian men and women across the country, national prohibition was achieved in 1918. As Endeavorers meet again in Atlantic C'ty it is to find the traffic in alcoholic beverages has been revived as a major menace to public morals and civic goodness. "We believe that the liquor traffic must be restricted and prohibited if the people of this country are to live together in sobriety and happiness."
