3D FOR CHURCH.
BAND GETB 10. CLERGYMAN HITS OUT. That many professing Christians are living only for the fleeting pleasures of the senses is the assertion of Rev. R. A. Pollard, of St. Paul’s Church of England, Llthgow (says a Sydney paper). He says that it is forced on his notice that many who call themselves Christians are living almost altogether for the present, and for things which they can sec and hear and handle. With theso people the Church comes last. Thoy watch the Sunday football matches, and on Sunday nights go to tho town band concerts, readily paying their shillings. This was in addition to the pictures, dances, and so forth throughout tho week. Yet if they chance to find their way to church, it was to give threepence, or possibly sixpence, as their offering to God.
