There should be a law to stop I loose mouth women from talking | so much when they are having I their hair done in beauty parlors. The one reason that women der’t have moustaches is that they talk so devilish much that they wear the roots off on their upper lips.

THE SOUTHERN NEWS It is one thing to believe in Him; it is another to have Him a vivid reality. Let us be clear in this matter. \\’i cannot know Christ at all if wt do not first believe on Him ihrough the Word. But there is more to Christianity than that. It is because so many nominal Christians have n« ver realized Shrist’s presence in their lives that their religion means no more to them than the principles of a lodge or a welfare association. They treat the church merely as another organization. They pay , their dues; they attend now and then and say a good word for it occasionally. Our Christi;.n : ty should be so' vital to us th a we could not live without it. It should lie the ! li' ing water, without which we | would die of thirst; the bread oil life, without which we would starve. The reason for our indifference is that we hve never really known Christ. If we are to experience Bis reality we must get a vision of Him and His-- wonderful I.ve for us. It is the vision of Calvary. Clod so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son a sac lifice upon the cross. Contempla e ihe scene. It is divinity dying ihtie for humanity. Christ did aot have to die in that terrible • gony for He is God. But He chose o die because of His burning de ni e to redeem hunmnity and pro vide for us away es salvation. Reasons a Group of People Gave For N°l Attending Uhiuch Scr- Twenty-three per cent wanted Sunday for themselves and their families. 'i'wenty-one per cent stated that they did not go to church because of the unfriendly or insincere peo ple they find. Nineteen per cent stayed away because the church is always ask ing for money. Fifteen per cent stay away be cause they find the services very uninteresting. Five per cent do not go be cause they never experience spir itual help. Four per cent do not go be cause no one has ever invited them to go. Four per cent do not go be cause the minister is always tell ing them how to be good. Nine per cent do not attend tor miscellaneous reasons, hardly any two of them the same. In the words of E. E. Burn side: “Turn your eyes upon Jesus. Look full in His wonderful Things of earth will grow s rangely dim. In the light of His glory and grace.’ ’ Once we have seen Jesus we are certain jof Him.. 1 have a thrilling letter from a preacher teling how Christ has become in tensely real to him during these trying days. He comes into his study and talks to him. This man of God so strongly senses Christ’s presence in all of his work that he i buoyed up and empowered fa rbeyond anything he has ever known. One writer said: “Religion is not taught; it is caught.” 1 do not agree with this statement. If that were true, why did Jesus teach and why is He today our Master Teacher? Christianity grips man intellectually a.s well as emo tionally. But the dean s resses something that many of us have missed.

A faint sprinkling of powder lasts just as long as a barrel of flour and cer tainly is less likely to cal.e when your face becomes damp. A bare tracing of lipstick gives a much cooler effect than a heavier app i.-a tion and will not smudge as easily. Mascara is best forgotten entirely in the Summer in warmer climates, unless you find some that is guar anteed water-proof. A light appli cation of rouge is recommended, as too much color may add to the hot, wilted appearance. To you beauty-conscious women, I need not stress the importance of a daily bath.
