The annual Red Cross Roll Call i.s, on now. Moore county has a (luota of approximately $2,000. No reader of this news paper needs to be told of the needs of the Red Cross at this time . The demands upon its treasury have been tremendous during the past year. With con ditions as they are abroad, wjth this country in the act of pre paring for any emergency that may a’;ise, these demands are bound to continue.

In “Readers’ Digest” for Octo ber, 1940 Channing Pollock that the reasons he gives in his article, “Why I Don’t Go to Church” are shared by a large number of Protestant Ameri cans. Briefly stated they seem to be as follows: Prefers to worship alone. Cannot feel devout at a fixed hour. I Habitual worship loses its cogency. j Church services are charac terized by superficial ceremony and meaningless cant. | Church buildings are too or-^ nate or too shabby to inspire re ligious fervor. j Preachers are unconcerned with pressing human problems. Average preacher commands little respect personally or pro fessionally. Sermons are usually superfi cial. I Church literature denounces innocent amusements. I all .sorts and conditions of men.i has been the vitalizing' of modern civilization at I its best.
