KINARD "In this hour of worship may we find relief from the tensions and anxieties of daily living.” The prayer of the minister reached particularly the heart of one man who was present as un doubtedly it affected others. But just the day before as he was worried over veatious problems 1 he had stood at his office window looking out over the city. He could see many business and in dustrial plants and be wondered how many other executives faced the difficulties he did. But here and there as he look ed about he could see a church steeple pointing Heavenward. Then he thought, “If I anchor myself to what the church means why need I worry so much?” A leading industrialist said the other day, “I always like for my i company to go into a community 1 where I can see plenty of church es. People who go to church give confidence to good business ” Even those who are indifferent- to the church or synagogue would 1 not want to live in a place where there were no edifices of worship. Somehow the church steeple brings a sense of stability and se curity. In a small western town the church people work together har moniously and it is a prosperous community. One evening a visi tor heard a church bell ringing vigorously. Asking what it meant, he was told, “That is tha Methodist bell ringing for the Baptist revival that is being held in the Presbyterian church ” Subscriba To THE CHRONICLE PhoM 74 Headquarters for Drouth Foods , Dairymen who have fed Spartan’s Drouth Feeds have praised them highly because they have produced lots of milk and kept their cows in good condition.
