'):: BEST GAME IN THE WORLD ' It's' Just to Be Glad, Dr. Frank G. Smith declares in a sermon on "The Gospel According to Pollyanna" He urges his congregation to follow the title. ; ' ; Girl's Example v ( ' . Matthew Mark, Luke and John and Pollyanna. To the four, Biblical chroniclers of the gospel. Dr. ; Frank G. Smith, pastor of the First Congregational Church, added the player of "the glad game" in his " germon last night on "The Gospel According to Pollyanna," Pollyanna, it will be remembered, is the little girl who, transformed a whole town by teaching them to play the glad game to look for something pleasant in everything in the book ..named for her. . . v , ' " " c -"If I had a magic wand, with a wave of which I could bring into the world or give the world any thing I wished, I know of no greater favor or ben efit I might order up by my magic than to have the essence of Pollyanna's glad game spread over.it," Dr. Smith told his audience. Learns the Glad Game "Now, that sounds peculiar roming j!rom a min'uiter," Dr. Smith added., "Bspecially when I have the Good Book liere m vlose. But there is w murh, o very much of the gospel in that little story of Pollyanna t r -. . ' I believe that it ia the duty and the business of every Christian to open hie beart and allow so much of the sunshine of Christ sod of life to fill it that he will see fc-bidneiia ia eterythinc. It is his .busi ness as a follower of Cbrint to get happiness out of every vicissitude. "I wonder now many have read the story of Pollyanna.'f " Dr; ,', .
