From the Editor
This is a little story that has
been going around the past few
weeks in different papers and
thought it worthwhile to pass
on to you.
It's entitled: "Sermon i n
Soap."

Now is the time to CHEER up.
If you want real JOY, BREEZE
to Church this Sunday. But too
many people WOODBURY their
heads in a pillow or work.to
make their car SPARKLE for-
getting that the Lord's Day was
made for L££?TOIL. When the
Lord is put first, a DQV2S will
never have to put out an SOS
4-U who put the Almighty last.
Maybe we ought to DIAL you
and remind you of the IVORY
peacesi 9pjfr. This is not BAB-
O; Worship, is intended as your
LIFEBOUY, so why not WISK
yourself out of bed this Sun-
day dress up SPIC'N'SFAN and
DASH like a COMET to Sunday
School.
As you sing PRAISE to God
and hear His word, you ALL
will get a wonderful CLEANS-
ER for your soul, and you will
feel like MR. CLEAN all week.
