DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT SATURDAY MAY 4, 1935.
HOUSE LEADERS ARE SATISFIED Democratic Leaders Well Satisfied With Legislation Passed Washington, May 4 (UP) The house Democratic leadership lookled back today on four months of | effort to keep party harmony und ;pronounced the results satisfactory. The house membership which gathered in Washington four months ago was looked upon as I likely to revolt against the adminI istration on vltul issues, and pass j radical inflation and farm relief legislation. Speaker Joseph W. j Byrns and other leaders believed i today that every significant at- ; tempt to shatter party ranks had > been decisively stifled. Th© rbcI ords showed: 1. Passage of must legislation which puts the house far ahead of the senate in legislative activity. 2. Return again of the house to the status of a deliberative legis lative body through abandonment of the historic "gag rule." 3. Throttling of dangerous lib- ! era! blocs which might be the forerunners of a powerful third party movement. 4. Killing of a powerful Democratic move to elei t an acting majority floor leader in place of Representative Edward Taylor. Democrat. Colorado, appointed. Byrns said today he expected the house would have passed all White House met iillls by Jun» L>. The house may then lake two-day re-' cesses, while waiting on the senate i to clear legislation, so that ad- j journment sometime in July will be possible. — o— DECATUR GIRLS CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE Mang Id.' being completed Frid.iy night.

I can’t sell you on Christ until you are sold on it. “It is in the influence of the home that our true selves are most truly reflected. "We hejve so many Christian people who are perplexed and worried because they took their children to Sunday School and church when they were small and the children are not interested in either the church or the Sunday School today. Perhaps these people have not lived up to the Christian attitude in the home. “Children are more influenced by the informal attitude in the home than they are impressed by formal action of going to church. You can not teach a child religion by telling the child to do things and then tilling the opposite. Yon are not a Christian in the real sense of the word until you are a Christian at home. “You are not a Christian because you gave yourself to Christ 25 years ago. That was only a good start. “If we would be Christians we must give ourselves wholly to the I building of the church. I still be- | lieve the best way to build up the Kingdom of God is to build up the ' church. My best service can be 1 rendered by giving my beat to the Evangelical church. “I know that the Kingdom of God is served best when every church is doing its best. Your local ■ church is a miniature Kingdom of God. "The church is a school in Christian education. This is a magnificent conception. | “I believe in these peace movements —but yon don’t need to imagine for a minute that you can bring peace to the world as long as you can’t get people in one congregation to live together happily. I "We basically become Christians by a change in our personal lives.
