Friday, November 12, 1948 Carl Bjork's Tips (Continued from Page 1) pie present who had come to wor ship God first, and not see the President. Last summer the pastor of a Baptist church near Sun Valley in Idaho was informed that the Presi dent would be in for the Sunday Service. Also the press was duly notified. The result was a jammed church preceded by a long line o' cheering Americans. In the silent hours of the week afterward the reflective minister viewed the situation. On his church bulletin that week he had displayed a notive that “the Presi dent would not be with them the next Sunday, but God would.” The press stated that the usual sincere, earnest, and faithful mem bers were the only attendants that Sunday. I wish the President would sneak into some of our churches some Sunday and just be Harry S. Truman for an hour in God’s House. Sam Houston, United States Senator, once President of Texas, and with a nasty reputation for living high wide and handsome, went over to Washington’s First Baptist Church one Sunday. It was a surprise visit. When the pastor saw Sam drap ed in his Indian blanket and whittling a stick on the front pew, he swallowed considerably, and changed his sermon on the spot. Sam never even seemed inter ested in the sermon or service. However he went back to his hotel and rewrote the whole serm on and mailed it to his wife. Sam returned to the church the SATURDAY SPECIAL Silver Mist 5O lbs . $3.80 Silver Mist - 25 lbs . $7.90 Carnation or Pet Milk Lg.

The preacher preached at Sam; the choir sang at Sam; they prayed at Sam, but Sam kept on whittling every Sunday, and sending the sermon to his wife. Back home in the west, Mrs. Houstin, a Baptist preacher’s daughter, notified the church of her ungodly husband’s great in terest in Christianity. So they made him a subject of prayer, hired an evangelist, and waited for him to return to conduct a revival for him. Sam came home, and that night the revival started. The old warrior and adopted Cherokee went down to hear the sermon with his good wife, and he was soundly converted. Upon being baptized in a nearby stream at the ripe age of some eighty plus, one former pal asked him if “he wuz getting his sins washed away.” The witty Sam said that if “he wuz then he wuz sorry fer the fish in.thet river.” The arrival of President George Washington at church had little or no effect upon the regular church goers. Os course no advance notice was given, but the shock in that day would have been if George had elected to remain at home in stead of attending divine worship! I wonder if Dewey attended church last Sunday. And if so, I wonder what the minister preach ed for his message. An appropriate subject would have been on “Com fort for The Broken Hearted.” Send your old shoes to Europe. The Zebulon Record Personals Mrs. J. S. Buffaloe, Mr. and Mrs. R. H.
