It is not a question of press versus pulpit.

The press and the pulpit are units of our modern life which ought to work hand in hand.

And the mere matter of church attendance might not count, if it was a question with the average man whether he would go to church and hear a dull sermon or stay at home and read an interesting newspaper.

That is not the point.

The point is whether the day of rest and worship shall be like every other day; whether we shall let our minds go right on as they have been going, to the choking up of avenues of spiritual growth and religious service.
