AT THE CHURCHES
Dr. Foreman
WE did not win all the battles we fought with Japan. The day of a certain naval defeat near the Philippines, an American "baby"
carrier, left to its "fate, was doing Its best to get away from the pursuing " Japanese. : All afternoon it dodged md twisted. Enemy destroyers and planes were hot on Its trail, and It was a "sitting duck" in case they
really got the
' range. No one on board expected to live. The only question in any-: body's mind was: How soon will ". they get us? But late in the after-1 noon, for some reason never t-: plained, the enemy gave up the; chase, i and the American ship, slipped off Into the protecting; Bight The next day, as the men: gathered for a. special service of .thanksgiving, the chaplain read the 124th Psalm. It came as a new Psalm altogether to those men,; even to those who had known it by heart: i j "If it had not been the Lord who was on our side, when men rose tip against us, then they had i swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us; then the ... . proud waters had gone over our soul. Blessed be the Lord,, jwho hath-not given us as a prey,; to their teeth." ,

' A msuua s ouugs THE POWER to thrill has , not been lost by the Psalms, as the men on that carrier found out. The 'group numbered 120 through 134 in cur Bibles are known as the "Pilgrim Marching Songs," and were originally used by the Hebrews as they went yeaf by year up to their capital city of Jerusalem and to the Temple which was, the center, ! of their religion. Then as now, the ; Hebrews were a singing people. A nation that cannot sing, a nation . 1 without songs, is a dismal country. Indeed. ' it - ' 1 Difference among various countries is symbolized by ' their songs, or the lack of them. The Chinese, for instance, have no song that draws them all together in the same way that Englishmen are united in "God Save the King" or as French- ' men once were by the "Marseillaise." When it comes to pass, as once it did in the United States, that one part of the nation will sing one song (say, "John Brown's Body") while another part will not sing that song but another one (say, "Dixie,"), , then civil war is at the gates. Only people who will sing together can be trusted to live together.
Singing Church IN the ' long caravans, marching up the rocky hillside trails to Jerusalem, the ancient Hebrews put their faith into stirring words set to. music. So it is always. All over the Christian world, wherever and whenever the sirjglng is good, religion is warm and vigorous. Where the heart is full, there will be song. Revivals of religion are revivals of singing. To this day a stranger in strange city, looking for a church home, is most likely to settle down in the church where the singing is the best. It is . not an accident that , the Moravian" church is. at the same time the church that' makes more of Easter, than - some - other churches, it Is the church where at funerals the music ' is .never sad but joyous, not mourning-songs but triumphant hymns of Christian faith. . Patriotism and Religion READ these marching ' Psalms through the ; reading time is only a few minutes and see for yourseif how the ancient Hebrew men of God united their praise of Him with love for their country. To this day, in our Christian hymnals, patriotism and religion are Often combined. The -English na- ; tional anthem, "God . Save the, King," is a prayer; so is "America . the , Beautiful."- National hymns; have a rightful place in' a book of ; public worship.' For - while patriotism,', by itself, is a poor substitute for religion, ; still a; man who will not . love ' his country lacks some-: . thing of being a good Christian, andon the other hand, a man without - faith in God : makes - a. very poor r citizen... v-.,"' ' -.( ' j (Cop?jr!i?ht by th International Ceun- . cil .of Religious Education on behalf ot 10 - Protestant denominations.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE S SERVICES "Sacrament" is the subject of the Lesson-Sermon in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, on Sunday, July 10. The Golden Text is: "Thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly"
i (Matthew 6:6). i Amonjr the citations which comprise the Lesson-Sermon is the following from the Bible: "Who
shall ascend into the hill of the Lord ? or who shall stand in his holy place? He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully. He shall receive the blessing from the Lord, and righteousness from the God of his salvation" (Psalms 24:3-5). The Lesson-Sermon also includes the following passages from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scrip-.'
tures" by Mary Baker Eddy: "The baptism of Spirit, washing the body of all the impurities of flesh, signifies that the pure in heart see God and are approaching spiritual Life and its demonstration" (p. 241). "In proportion to his purity is man perfect; and perfection is the order of celestial being which demonstrates Life in Christ, Life's spiritual ideal" (p. 837).

Why talk to me aHout "trie im
portance of going to Church? You don't expect me to put on my Sunday suit and stroll down
mere alone, do you?
Dad and Mother are the people to see . . . they make all the important decisions.
Sure! I'd like to start Church' School pretty soon. Yes, and I'd like to see the whole family in Church. A little chap like me can understand religion much better when he doesn't wonder why his folks aren't on speaking terms with God. , And, frankly, I think you grown-ups need the Church as much' as I do it wasn't my generation that got the world into such a mess! - All right, you can quote me. And I'll even let you put my picture in the paper. 'Cause, confidentially, I think we would all be a whole lot happier if Dad and Mother, and some of the rest of you older folks, would look at these spiritual matters through my eyes!
