to be of all heredities. because
one of my chief objects would

The cultivation of religion in the
home is being stressed in the ob-
servancc of Lent this year by Con-
gregational churches throughout the
country.
Lent. which began this week. is
described by the Commission on
Evangelism of the National Council
of Congregational Churches, as "the
Sabbath Season of the year." ‘
"One day a week for the cultiva-
tion of the spiritual life." it is stated.
“is not enough." There should be a
Sabbath every year extending thru
a number of weeks in which the
Christian can devote himself assidu-
ously to the work of purifying his
heart. deepening his religious con-
victions and cultivating the graces
of the spirit.
"The days leading up to Easter
are frcighted with sacred associa-
tions and in no other season of the
year should the followers of Jesus
be so inclined to mbditation and to
endeavors to lead a Christian life."
The strengthening or revival of
family 'devotions is made the first
objective in the Lenten program
recommended this year by the Com-
mission on Evangelism. The chair-
man of the Commission is Rev.
Lewis T. Reed. pastor of the Flat-
bush Church. Brooklyn.
Special religious training of young
people is‘ the second feature of the
Lenten program and the third is the,
promotion of church attendancc and
membership recruiting.
The aim of the whole program is
virtually to enroli.the 900,000 men».
bers of the Congregational churches
in a “school" of intensive devotional
culture for a. period of six or seven
weeks.
"Far more sad is it than we are
apt. to realism", according to Dr.
Reed. that many of these children
have never heard their fathers pray.
These children, are sincerely to be
pitled. .Thcy have been: deprived of
an influence which almost inevitably
makes for strength of character.
"While it is true that irregular
habits of most American families to-
day make. it difficult to maintain
regular daily devotions. we must
never allow it to be said that life is
too strenuous for family worship.
Five minutes each morning given to
God will protect the religious life of
a family." .
In cases where it is impossible for
the whole familyto gather together
even for a moment regularly each.
day. it is pointed out that numerous
special oceauons occur which give
amaturai opportunity for a family
religion service. such as: when a
member of the totally late begin

Keep Lent This Year
Will Stress Importance Of Family Devotions
During “Sabbath Season Of the Year”—
Would Revive Domestic Prayer and Grace
\
and on Thanksgiving. Christmas and
New Years." .\
Grace at meals is urged as part
of family worship. Short. simple and
sincere forms are recommended. and
caution is expressed against stiltcd
and over-pious expressions. Not only
may grace be said by the father or
mother but. it is advised. that the
children may be allowed to any it in
turn. or the grace may be sold to-
gether in unison with the form varY-
ing for different meals.
“Thoughtlessness. mumbling or
hurrying in saying grace." the
Commission on Evangelism empha-
sizes. "should not be tolerated. A
moment‘s pause before the first word
will invest the rite with dignity and
beauty.“
Forms of grace suggested.
cludcd:
“0 God. we thank thee for what
we are about to receive: bless it and
bless us. In Jesus‘ name. Amen."
“Come. dear Lord, and be our
guest. Bless all thou hast provided
for us. Bless us and make us s.
blessing. In our dear Itedccnier's
name. Amen."
Or for a child's grace:
"God bless this food. and bless us
all: and keep us safe whatc'or be-
fall." ,
Such prayers at the table. it is de-
clared. will invest the meal with
a. wholesome but not burdensome
sense of the sacramental and will
lift it above the mere process of
feeding: they will hollow what
should be’ hours of happiest fellow-
ship. clothe the routine of daily life
with its true divinity. lit the table
talk above the level 0 gossip and
bring God into the friendship of the
home.
A manual for family devotions
through Lent. called "The Fellow»
ship of Prayer," has been prepared
for the Commission on Evangelism
by Rev. William Horace Day of
Bridgeport. Conn. A Bible reading,
a short printed comment and a brief
prayer. are provided for each day.
"The Fellowship of Proyer" has been
commended for use to all denomina-
tions by the Federal Council of the
Churches of Christ in America and
it has been widely circulated; it has
also been syndicated for newspaper
publication and is being broadcasted
daily by WEAF in New York.
The church is pictured as "A
Society of the Friends of Jesus." in
a series of Lenten Studies outlined
for young people by Dr. Reed.
The- outline is for use in pastors'
special Lenten classes which are
growing rapidly in number each
year. , The outline deals with the
fouuutions of Christianity. especial-
ly with a view to preparation for

The. Church and Prohibition
The enemies of the Catholic
church have b’ccn diligent in pro-
claiming her to be in alliance with
the wet from-s of” the country. The
charge is false, but it answers well
the purpose of its anthems—tho bcsi
ililng they can find. -
The Catholic church. as a. church.
has made no pronouncement on the
dry law. She counsels and requires
hcr subjectd to obcy all lliW validly
laid down. More specifically, she re—
quires of them obedience to the
Constitution of the United States.
Nor docs she undertake to pass judg-
ment on any of, its articlcs or any
of its amendments.
The Catholic church is free and
happy and prosperous wliei‘cvcr she
dwclls under the aegis of the Amer-
ican Constitution.
va that representatives of the
Protestant Episcopal church have
gone on record against the dry low
-it sinnd‘iliat does not involve of-
ficially the Protestant Episcopal
church, the uplioldcrs of dryness
may now Visit their wrath upon the
Episcopal body. The wot-fore will
gain by expansion what it. loses in
intensify.
Catholics there have been who
have spoken upon the dry law. but
so far as we have been able to
notice. they spoke for themselves
alone. Not. every churchmen rc-
flccts the mind of the church. No
one. the Roman l’ontift' :iIonc ex-
cepted, may presume to speak for
the universal church. The fact, is
there is no unanimity of judgment
among Catholic churchmen rcspcct-
ing the dry lair. I have heard Catli-
olic priests and people who are
enthusiastic in its support. who
glory in the disappearance of the
saloon. who thank God that drink-
ing has fallen off among the poor.

as of the drunkard himself.

Colored Quartette
At Baptist Church
Two services of special interest to
the public will be held at the South
Norwalk Baptist Church Sunday.
The Perkins-Middleton colored quar-
tctte will sing a. number of the old
negro jubilee songs at the morning
service. Rev. L. T. Mallory. the pas-
tor. will speak upon the subject,
"Paradise". This is the third ser-
mon in a series on "The Seven
Words of the Cross".
The‘ evening service will be a
patriotic service to which all patri-
otic organizations are especially wel-
come. The D. A. it. will be the
guests of honor. The pastor will
give an address on “The American
Flag". After what was our flag pat-
terned? When did we get our flag?
What are its significanis? What
events of special interest are related
to our flag and why? Our flag and
the Kingdom of Heaven? These are
some of the questions to be con-
sidcrcd.
The public is very cordially invited
to hear this historic religious lecture.
