It is Architecturally lacking in many of the finer qualities popularly asscoiated with church con- r st ruction, hut the Intent of those who build such structures is more important. perhaps, than the facade. - \ There are wooden floors, for I example, but according to Louis’ i fetter, this is to be accepted as a

revelation «f aorta, in that on® so seldom encounters wood floors these days in North Korea. Then, too, the sides of the church are sandbags, which can not only prove valuable for breaking the wind, but are almost necessary at times for arresting whistling lead. 'StiU, the most valuable tihng, a.aybe, is it is interdenominational; mt. ail faiths come there to worship in their own light; but, worship they ko. And they come to the first church built store the police action in North Korea when sumnroned by a bell. \ That’s the pride and joy of the whole thing—according ti Louis’ summation of the sentiment of the men there. That bell, now. That’s the topper. That’s the thing that makes the world go ’round. Perhaps vrtthout knowing it, Louis and the men with him have, answered graphically the usual question asked of “why all the shooting.” One at the answers, of course, is ithe construction of churches and | accompanying bells.
