This joint campaign is a demonstration of the grOwth of the Wilmette community spirit which, after all, is only true neighborliness and mutual helpfulness for the common good. These are the Chrir~h Homes:of the community. Instead of selfishly competing for church growth, they are co-operating. The question Which church you shall atten is riot nearly so important as that you do attend some church F~r, after all, these Church Homes are alike in their ideals for right Jiving, and seek to serve the one same Master to the same single pu rpo~e. If you have not yet affiliated with a Wilmette church, please accept this cordial invitation to make one of these your own Church Home . If you are affiliated, but have relaxed in your ·attendance, help by your presence to mak~ next Sunday a· record day .in your church. Fans A~ait N. U. 8 S.
