DEAN BROWN OF YALE DESGRIBES
ENRICHING FRIENDSHIP OF GOD
“You can't telephone to a man unless
you down the. receiver. When we
pray, we take down the receiver to ‘get
into communion with God. He can hear
and has the disposition to answer,” said
Dr. Charles R. Brown; of Yale,
spoke in chapel jast Sunday.
“Prayer ‘is the act of a child talking
over his life with father,” he con-
tinued, “Through prayer, man can con-
fide his hopes, his aspirations, his fears,
and his weaknesses to God; and like the
wise doctor and teacher, God helps us
by working in and through our faculties.

is compelled to withhold His fine, en-
