VALUE OF THE CHURCH GOING HABIT
T he W oodw ard Avenue business m an smiled when some of his friends ra llied him a b it about his reg u la r hab it of going to church.
“ No, I don’t go to p lease m y w ife,” he said good na tu red ly . “ N either do I go because I have any special creed to up hold; nor ye t because I th ink it is good for business. I go because it is the p lan I s ta rted w ith earl}" in life , and I m ean to keep it up.
“W hen I was a boy, ju s t beginning to th ink w hat I should do w ith my life , I sized up the people in the tow n w here we lived, and I saw th a t those who w ere bringing out the best resu lts a ll around, for them selves and th e ir fam ilies, w ere men who hab itua lly w ent to church. I t seemed to me then , young as I w as, and it s till seems to me th a t churchgoing inevita b ly brings out system , o rder, punctua lity , self-respect and a num ber of other tra its which are valuable assets in any life w ork.
