TO JOIN CHURCH. 
Beverly Pastor Urges Manchester Parents to 
have Children Join Church while Young. 
In a short address in the vestry of 
the Baptist church, Manchester, Thurs- 
day evening, Rev. Herbert Judson 
White, of Beverly, made an earnest 
plea with the parents for bringing 
their children into the church when 
they are young, urged increased inter- 
est in Sunday School work and a 
_larger attendance at Sunday School 
by the parents. 
The meeting was held in the inter- 
ests of the Sunday School and was in 
the nature of a “ Children’s Hour,” a 
pleasing program of musical and other 
numbers being given by the children. 
The address of the evening was by 
Mr. White who spoke on ‘“ Our Re- 
lations to the Children.” 
‘‘T believe in these children’s hours,” 
he said. ‘“ We have too few meetings 
of the Bible School in the evenings. It 
would do more good to meet oftener. 
There are many things we can do for 
our Sunday Schools to make them 
better and brighter. There is a lot 
we can do to keep the big boys in the 
school. 
‘Jesus loved children,and he knew 
we loved them, but he also knew we 
- were apt to misunderstand our chil- 
dren. There is very little room any- 
where today for little children, or for 
old persons either. As I look around 
I can see homes where there is room 
for no children. There are poodle 
dogs and old tabby cats, but no chil- 
dren. 
«“T wonder why we don’t improve 
the opportunity God has given us by 
pouring our best into the lives of 
these younger ones? We despise the 
children. We do not allow them to 
come anywhere near the fellowship of 
the church, but we allow them to go 
where all the diseases of sin are ramp- 
It is a fact that many of the 
children that come into the church 
have to fight their way in. Children 
are being kept away from the church 
to shelter the sinfulness of their par- 
ents.” .

prayer, and Scripture reading by the 
pastor, the following program was car-
