But painted it was! . That was a glorious Saturday—no picnic or ball games, just hours of hard work. And what with the paint supplied at cost by a local dealer, and the brushes loaned by the very painter who might have hoped for the contract—nobody made a nickel! But the remarkable thing is that nobody in town thought all this remarkable . . . You know Christianity has had a deep influence on the life of a community when we begin to take for granted the zeal and sacrifice of Christian neighbors. The next step is to add our strength and faith to theirs in the worship and work of the Church. , v THE CHlflCH FOB ALL ...
