wide prohibition won a sweeping vic
tory at the polls in Virginia today, re-
turns at midnight showing that it's
supporters had won by a majority of

BILE. With complete returns from all
tie cities and A of the 100 counties
and with scattering returns from other

the drys ,rece4ved 77,453, as against

The cities, which were expected TO-
roll up a majority for. the local op-
tionists, sprung a surprise by giving

Peace and Prayer.

Spartanburg Journal
The president has called the people
of our country to assemble in their
places Of worship the first Sunday Of
October and send up united prayers
for peace in Europe and in all the
world.
Without faith there will be no an
swer to prayer. He who prays for
that which he considers impossible,
prays in vain.
1t is estimated that there are
100000 soldiers in the field ready
for action and 100000 reserves and
territorial soldiers who can be
brought to the front in the next
three months.
If one does not believe that peace
is possible under present conditions,
and that it is the most desirable
thing, a prayer for peace will be a
formal repetition of words.
