I;
Have you ever seen the eyes of a cat at night-—
with light reflected in their glassy stare?
And the eyes of this tabby—there is an eerie
quality in them, something hypnotic and almost
without life.
Yet these are the eyes of a living creature, the
eyes of an animal that sleeps and eats and walks
and runs.
What then is the mystery of cat eyes? What do
these eyes lack that would give them softness,,
kindness, and radiance?
IMMORTALITY is the answer—for a cat has
no soul.
A cat has nothing of the spiritual, which in man
makes him the unique being among God’s creatures.
Man has a little something of the Divine in him—
the immortal soul. And to develop this soul is one
of the greatest responsibilities we have in life.
With the help of God’s Holy Word and through
the guidance of the Church, man is able to add
new lustre to his life, a lustre that shines in his
eyes and mirrors the soul within.
THE CHURCH FOR ALL . . .
ALL FOR THE CHURCH
The Church is the greatest fac
tor on earth for the building of
character and good citizenship. It
is a storehouse of spiritual values.
Without a strong Church, neither
democracy nor civilization can
survive. There are four sound
reasons why every person should
attend services regularly and sup
port the Church. They are: (1)
For his own sake. (2) For his
children's sake. (3) for the sake
of his community and nation. (4)
For the sake of the Church itself,
which needs his moral and ma
terial support. Plan to go to
church regularly and read your
Bible daily.
