PASTOR URGES ALL TO SING CHURCHSONGS Rev. Fackler, in Sermon, Makes Plea for Love of Sacred Music. Why should I sing church hymns? That was not only a question asked and answered by the Rev. L. C. E. Fackler of St. Matthew Evangelical Lutheran Church Sunday, but was his night topic. In introducing his subject, the Rev. Fackler said, “This question will arise in the minds of those who are blinded to God’s blessings. There are various causes which should move souls to sing praises, but not all souls are moved to sing. “Only the soul that is filled with the spirit of truth can give the reply to the question: Why should I sing church hymns? "The Psalmist relates several causes which ought to inspire a souls to praise God. He does not point to the things which man has done, neither does he say that we ought to sing about the works of man, but concerning the work of God. The song should be anew song, not one that cometh from the old man concerning the things in which the old Adam delights. There are many that sing their lewed sensual songs and their singing de- ' fames the name of God. The singing to which the psalmist refers is that which proceeds from the soul that is born again of the water and the spirit.” Marvelous Things “What is there to which the new creature can point and say what moves me to sing? The Lord has done marvelous things, He has made the world. But there is something more marvelous than that. The Lord has opened His greatness and goodness in the work of redemption. What marvelous things has not Christ done? His birth is the wonder of all times. “He healed all manner of diseases, fed 5,000 with a few loaves and fishes, raised the dead and what was more marvelous than all this, He died and raised Himself again by His own power, ascended into heaven and sent down the Iloly Spirit. All this for the eternal welfare of man. When this sinks into our souls it ought to move our souls to action. “The Lord did not withhold His word from us. He did not leave us ignorant of the oaving truth but made known His salvation. He uncovered the many hidden things of prophecy which were promulgated and demonstrated by Christs Himself. For the Many “The I<ord did not uncover the truth so. - a certain few but even before the heathen. His righteousness hath He shown in the sight of all ki&tions. The book is not sealed "into those who are ©eeking and searching for truth. The person that will stop to think will see that all these wonderful, - marvelous things that Christ has given and done for man is sufficient cause wljich ought to move us to sing praises unto Him. “The effect that ought to be produced by these causes is the opening of my mouth in the singing of hymns of praise. The person who is not moved to praise God does not appreciate what God has done. ‘ Have you ever noticed a child when it is happy? It will compose a song that is full of discords and the words will practically mean nothing but it is giving expression to the Joy in its soul. So will we If our souls are filled with joy sing praises to God. “The person that refrains from singing church hymns is denying his soul the privilege of exp -esalon. If we take an active interest in the church service and sing heartily with the members we will return to our homes feeling that we have partaken of a profitable service. Joy in Song “There is pleasure in singing the wonderful truths of God. Make a Joyful noise unto the Lord, rejoice and with the harp and musical instruments bring forth the praise that should come from our soul. Each song is a service, each song is a sermon, each song is the soul’s b xpression. f “In a few words we can say that we should sing church hymns to praise God, and thereby give expression of the Joy in our soul," Rev. Fackler said. Sheriff Arrests Three Sheriff Omer Hawkins arrested three motorists over the week-end on speeding charges. They were: George Stevenson, 2716 W.

HOOVER FLAYS PATEMAUSTK BUSINESS CURE Secretary of Commerce Against Over-Regulation; Speaks to Aid Clubs. Bu I'nitcd Pm* HOUSTON. Tex.. May 11.7~"We need to have the public mind turned off the national government as the remedy for all ills.” declared Secretary of Commerce Herbert Hoover before the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World in convention here today. “The war drove us to great centralization of government,” he said, “but from it came the illusion that most human ills could be cured by government regulation. It has been hard to overcome because everybody knows of some ill in the other fellow's business that ought to be cured right away.” Government, said Hoover, comprises more than political institutions. It begins with the individual’s moral and intellectual contacts with his fellowmen. It is a result and now becomes a function of advertising to direct the thoughts of people from the government to some of the abuses outside of government to cure our ills, Hoover declared. Advertising has increased the standard of living, Hoover said, and is now functioning to increase the moral stamina of individuals to overcome our predilection for governmental regulation, an evil that "destroys the initiative of our people and destroys the very impulses to progress.” PRIZES FOR MOTHERS Englewood Christian Church Gives Bouquets at Services.
