Saint Louis, (Special) January 5, 1946—Unbelief and
atheism are increasing at a greater rate than allegiance to the
Christian faith. Dr. Walter A. Maier of Concordia Seminary
declared here today in a special Epiphany broadcast, com
memorating the visit of the Magi to the Christ Child. He
asserted that unless Christians are ready to work harder,
pray more fervently, give more generously and systematic
ally oppose anti.Biblical attacks, Christianity may begin to
sustain actual numerical losses. “At the year $1000 A. D.
50.000. 000 confessed the Christian faith. By the year 1500
A. I). this number had doubled and the folowers of Christ
lumbered 100,000,(MM). Three hundred years later in 1800
this fi gure had again doubled, and Christians numbered
200.030.000, Only eighty years later this figure again
doubled and by 1880 more than 400,000,000 throughout
the world called themselves Christians. Unless there is a
reai revival of trzie Christian alertness throughout the world,
it may take centuries before the number of Christians is a
galn doubled.”
Commenting on the fact that Queen Elizabeth was recent
ly lost in a London fog, only one hundred yard® from Buck
ingham Palace, and that a searching party had to he sent ta
find her, the radio speaker declared that too many of those
char zed with leading national affairs have lost them elves in
the fog of infidelity when the sure wav for our age to find it
s. If is close at hand in the Gospel qlf Jesus Christ.
Vs the Magi, intellectual leaders of their day. hawed down
before the Christ Child, so Dr. Maier declared, the world’s
intelligencia, having witnessed the tita! collapse of a dozen 1
pet panaceas, should humbly acknowledge Christ as “the|
Y> ay. the Truth and the Life.” He commented on the fact '
that s leutist.- say more about religion today than ever be
& fore in this generation. Yet when Savants acknowledged
f some kind of higher being as a protest against aggressive,
j, atheism, I ’r. Man r concluded. “It is not enough to wor. h.'p
some vazzue . ort of h'gSicr being. The salvation of men"
souls clamor for a recognition of God, revealed in Jesus!
Christ as the SavioVr of the *orld.”

written within and on the back
side sealed with seven seals.” His
subject being “The Sealed Book”.
His thoughts for the day were:
God at His own appointed time
will impart the knowledge con
tained in the sealed book that con
cerns each o fus and as the seal
of the book is broken and read
for each Christian servant in
God's Vineyard all things will
come to pass for the glorification
of God the Father and the Son
Jesus Christ.

THt.MKS CHURCH
SIIOl LD A I)VERTISE
By Rev. E. V. Murchison
For A.\P
There is a difference of opin
ion concerning church publicity
and advertisement. There are
many who hold that it is beneath
the dignity of a church to use
high pressure methods in adverti
sing and publicity.
The extreme use of publicity
tends to cheapen religion and drag
the church to the fringe of dis
repute and gawdiness.
On the other hand, the advo
cates of good church, publicity
contend that the function of the
church is to reach as many peo
ple as possible and in the most
effective way. There are many
who feel that the day is at hand
when the church must push itself
to the front; it is a sinful waste
of money and of values for a
church to be empty during its
services. A church is an organi
zation to get men into the King
dom of God. The way to get them
is to attract their attention and
draw them in.
There are many forms of ap
propriate publicity for churches. I
One of the most effective is the
church edifice /-self. Most j
churches are built so that they |
can readily be distinguished by i
their architecture as being a
church.
Our churches and most Negro
churches need to do more to make
the church and church grounds
attractive. Shrubbery, good lawns
and flowers serve as an effective
method in attracting attention to
the church. Religion demands a
setting and an environment of
beauty. Everything about churches
physically and spiritually should
be beautiful.
Many of our churches are se
turihg beautiful neon signs of
various designs. Isreal, Gary, Ind.,
purchased a magnificent ’ neon
sign at a cost of $1200. The pas
tor stated that immediately there
after his evening service increas
ed. he sign has almost paid for it
self through increased offerings.
There is no rule by which to
regulate taste in advertising our
church, but in the business world
that advertisement, which secur
es results is a good advertisement.
Praying, occasional revivals, good
church music, eloquent preaching
are vital in retaining a good at
tendance after they have been at
tracted. The church must do both
—draw mm and bold thetas.
Conference of Christians and Jews
at the Hotel Baltimore last week.
Dr Smith stressed the importance
of understanding and unity of
purpose in order to build a city
and nation without bias and fear.

to him. Even in the medical pro
fession. allergy is known as a
strange condition.
Every animal recognizes the
harmful effect of fire and learns
To avoid punting objects early in
life. Civilized people also have
’earned about the microscopic en
emies called germs and how to
void them. The simple fact That
a substance which is harmless to
the majority of people could cause
serious illness in a susceptible few,
wa not seriously studied until re.
cent years. However, it has long
been known that many persons
are peculiar in that ' they are
made ill by contact with things
which do not affect others. We
have all heard the old saying. ‘One
man’s meat is another man’s poi
7°n”. This peculiarity is known as
allergy.
Ten percent of the population
show signs of what we call major
allergy: hay fever, asthasma. al
lergic rhinitis: eczema and mig
raine headaches. Thiitv to 40 per
cent show signs of minor aller.
Ties such as hives, drug sensitivi
ty. allergy to heat, sunlight, cold
and food.
Food allergies are very common.
The greatest offenders are eggs,
milk, /cereals, wheat, fruits, nuts
and various oils used in the pre
paration of food. They are resp
onsible for various discomforts
such as headache and digestive
upsets. However, al sorts of com.
pliar.ts. .fever, fatigue, fast pulse
rate and respiratory difficulties.,
have been laid at the door of food
allergy Many people needlessly
place themselves on rigid diets
-which may lead to-malnutrition.
No one should try to diagnose
h;s own allergies. It may cause
unnecessary trouble and waste
valuable time. I recall a Mr. John
son who came to see me to ask
for advice on what part of the
country to move in in order to
cure his asthma.
“But do you know that your
ast.-ma is caused by the climate
here?” I asked.
‘Well, I thought people with
asthma always moved to a dry
cdmate, he said. I explained to
iim that few asthma patients
need a change of climate, because
the asthma may be caused by
food, drugs, pollens, dust, dander
from horses, cats etc. A move a
cross the country, the search for
a new place to live and a new job
might be very difficult. If not
necessary it would be very foolish.
‘ The thing to do is find out the
cause, of your trouble, and then
try to cure it”, I told Mr. John
son. “It may not be easy to find
and you will have to help me. Ypu
will have to turn medical detec.
tives and give me clues about
your attacks. We must find the
cause before any permanent da
mage to done to your lungs.”
A diagnosis of allergy is made
by the physician on the history of
the patient and by skin testing
with substances to which he sus
pects the patient may be sensitive.
Some cases require many tests,
but in most cases a careful his
tory greatly reduces this. For ex.
ample, Mr. Johnson told me he
had attacks of when he
lived on
a boy. fi

THE WORD MADE FLESH
LESSON TEXT—John 1:1-18.
MEMORY SELECTION-No man hath
|®*n ud at any Umel the only begotten
wh’ch is in the bosom of the Father,
he hath declared him.—John 1:18.
A new year always carries with
it a deep sense of responsibility
and at the same time a thrill of
expectancy.
That is why we need to begin this
new year—and continue it—in the
study of God’s Word, so that we may
know his will. You will find it to be
a joy and blessing to you, not only
as you study it by yourself, but alsc
in the fellowship of those in the Sun
day school and church.
Our lessons for the next three
months are of unusual interest, foi
they take up the Gospel of Johr
which was “written, that ye might
believe that Jesus is the Christ, the
Son of God; and that believing ye
might have life through his name’’ j
(John 20:31).
Jesus Christ is here presented as
j be Word (Logos', and he is indeed I
! ’ e living Word come to reveal
t lod to us.
! * Tie Living Word Is the Light j
of .Wen (vv. l-£).
I Men ask oues'ions about Christ i
j They want to know whether he is |
| (o be re garded as a good man and
| a groat leader, rr must we recog-(
|ni7e liirn as being God?
1 Vne answer is here. He "was’’
[m (he beginning (Gen. 1:1), which!
’ cans that ho pre-ej.isled from all
■ -uity, and lie “was God’’ even I
. - ho was “with God.” This eter- I
i I • iiig. divine Word was the "ex- j
' ss >n o' ” of God (Heb. 1:3). and :
geio'v ;y revealed the Father (v.
U ).
!'e is the Creator (v. 3) and giver
, of 1 fe C' ‘h natural and spiritual,
i This eter i Word became (as he
r t of men. He came to
s“:' be darkness of a sinful
j w> ..a the only light of redemp
tion. We say again, “This is the
Lord!”
j II. The Living Word Is a Divider
of Men (vv. 6-13).
j The darkness ef sin was so deep.
! and still is so deep that the glorious
lignt of God is not received with
j gladness, nor accepted at all. We
| see that in the close of verse 5.
Now th.e question comes, Does it
make any difference how a man
I regards Jesus Christ?
The answer is clear. You must
I decide what you will do with him.
! You cannot avoid that decision or
evade that light which shires. You
must either accept or reject, and a
failure to accept is a rejection.
God has witnesses to the Light.
John was such a witness and he.
tike all true witnesses for Christ,
directed attention to him. John’s
great testimony was just a lesser
light to point men to the true Light.
That true Light is shed abroad for
all men (v. 9).
As they face Christ, men divide
into two groups. His own people,
and his own creation rejected him
when he came (v. 11). Kow utlorlj
tragic! And yet the same thing
goes on today. Men hear the gos
pel, are made acquainted with
Christ and his claims, yet fail tc
accept his proffered salvation, and
are eternally lost (John 3:19; Eph
2:1).
But, thank God, there are those
who receive him (v. 12), and to
them he gives the power, the right
or authority, to be the sons of Goo
This crange is expressly ceclaied
to be (I) not by reason of family
or heredity—"not of blood”: (2) not
by natural instinct or development
—not “of the will of the flesh”; and
<3) not by human volition or by
man’s will power—not “of the will
of man.”
111. The Living Word Is a Re
ve.iler of God (w. 14-18).
Tae eternal Word, the Lord Jesus
Christ, laid aside his place of honor
.n he*v«n, came to earth and tcok
upon himself our flesh that he might j
•edeem us from sin. What infinite
condescension, what unfathomable
love!
He dwelt among men and showed
forth the grace and truth of God.
for he was full of these heavenly
attributes. But it was in his giving
of himself as Redeemer and Sa
viour of mankind that he fully re
vealed God in all his gracious love
for us.
Notice the antithesis here. “Law”
is set over against “grace”; "giv
en” stands in contrast with “came,”
and "Moses” with "Jesus Christ.”
The law was a schoolmaster to
bring us to Christ (Gal. 3:24), but
it could not save anyone; but grace
—oh, It is by grace that we are
saved (Eph. 2:8).
Moses was God’s honored servant,
but Jesus was the Son in the house
hold (Heb. 3:3, 8). It was this Son
>! God who came to reveal the Fa

Women’s Clothing
Coming Down
Washington (CNS)—Now that
you have spent your last kopeck
to get the little woman outfitted
for Christmas, we ought not to
tell you this, but news is news.
So here goes. According to the
office of Temporary Controls, wo
men’s clothing prices will tum
ble, in some cases almost fifty
percent. That means that the
dress for which you shelled out
sixty bucks a week or so ago,
will be priced at thirty.
Chiefly, the price cutting will
be in dresses, coats, suits and fur
coats. Fur manufacturers are try
ing hard to get the 20 per cent tax
removed from their products, so
they can make a cut without ta
king a loss. Costume jewelry, the
item that soared early in the year
is now a drug on the market, and
will be selling for a song. So cer
tain are the downward revisions
in prices, .some stores offered cut
prices during the Christmas shop
ping days. While dollar volume
was up the number of articles sold
during the holidays was off.

IS THERE SUCH A THING AS
PERFECT I
WOMANHOOD ?l
“No”—claim medical authorities, who ought to
know! Nature has so constructed and physi
cally endowed woman that in many cases she’s
apt to suffer certain distressing symptoms -4
during her life. For Instance, when she enters V
womanhood—or during the menopause, the
period when fortuity ebbs away.
Now if on ‘certain days' of the month—fe
male functional monthly disturbances ars
causing you to suffer from pain, nervous dis
tress and feel so tired, cranky, you snap at
your children and husband—then do try Lydia
B. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound to relieve
•uch symptoms. It's /amour for this purpose.
