G0 tn rHIIDrH 1t Will Help Keep
UU III OIIUNOII Peace In the Land

TO TO CHURCH and pray that the Almighty may bring
peace to the warning nations of Europe.
At various times since the beginning of the TREMEN-
DOUS STRUGGLE WHICH HAS PLUNGED MORE THAN
HALF THE WORLD IN WAR there have been Sundays set
aside for a general prayer for peace. On these days there have
been GREAT TURNOUTS Of the people. The appeal for a
prayer for peace met with a splendid response. 1t aided the
GO TO CHURCH movement.
EVERY SUNDAY SHOULD BE A PRAyERFuL SUNDAY. PRAY
THAT THIS COUNTRY MAY BE SPARED THE HORRORS OF WAR.
THANK GOD FOR THE PEACE THAT THIS LAND NOW ENJoYsI
EVERY MAN VIC BELIEVES IN GOD BELIEVES IN THE EFFI-
cAcY OF PRAYER. AND EVERY MAN WHO BELIEVES IN BOTH
GOD AND THE EFFICACY OF PRAYER MUST BELIEVE IN THE
GO TO CHURCH MOVEMENT. HE MUST GO TO CHURCH HIM
SELF. THERE ARE ANY NUMBER OF MEN WHO, WHILE PRO-
Tossing A BELIEF IN GOD, SELDOM VISIT THE CHURCH. THEY
WILL PRAISE THE GO TO CHURCH MOVEMENT, BUT WILL NOT
HELP 1T ALONG BY THEIR PRESENCE AT THE SERVICE.
How can any man who processes a belief in God remain away
from the house Of God? If such a man will deliberate at all he
viii not let another Sunday go by without joining the ever in
creaang GO TO CHURCH throng. If you already have joined
get your neighbor to go. Nc right thinking man will resent your
kindly suggestion that he attend church. Talk up the GO TO
CHURCH movement. Start today. You'll be surprised at the
number OF converts you can make. Religion never was so strong
as it is today despite what scofers are saying. People are begin
ming to see that the only true life, the only true consolation, can
be found in the church.
Do you want happiness?
GO TO CHURCH.
GO TO CHURCH NEXT SUNDAY AND EVERY SUN
DAY.

a New TEST

There are indications that q new test
will be applied to public men in the future.
It is possible that the people may hereafter
Judge the public official by the things &C.
complished by him in office rather than by
the dope handed out for home consumption
just preceding election times.3
He will therefore warm his way into
the good graces of his constituents by results
rather than promises.
The people are beginning to compare
the politician whose biggest asset is sym
pathetic taffy for home consumption" with
the individual, who was conspicuous in wal
times as member of the "home guard OF
the "butter milk rangers" :.
What changes would be wrought couit
we rise to the point of Judging aIpubllc maj
by the results gained in the hard lines o.
battle instead judging him by his campa'g'
ieffor*s. ="

n Calamity Diverted

A dangerous point was reached in the
gubernatorial campaign last. week when
Lieutenant Governor Barrett handed out a
def to Attorney General Pleasant daring the
attorney general to follow his lead in re-
signing from office. In fact the proposition
was discussed in connection with public offi-
Gals generally. The crisis is past and we
are proud to say that not single otflclai mas
forsaken his trust, but each one has fiobiy
stood by his guns. Probably the stampede
was allayed by the thoughtful intimation
handed down by Mr.. Pleasant calling atten-
ton to the fact that such action would re-
sultin the cuttingof of pay and which remark
seemed to have quoting effect, and which
at once provoked more composed view OF
the situation. Since:the excitement has sub
sided, it is even limited that Lieutenant
Governor Barrett we'll knew that hts pro-
position would meet with general disfavol
land that in fact there was no real danger t.
1.-The public in making such proposal.
We are confronted with one more diff
1 lculty now, and that is the matter of choice
between the opposing candidates. In thi
!. crisis each one has distinguished himself
i with devotion to duty and Office and it viii
Ibe q hard matter to decide which is entitlet
Ito promotion. Our friend Batret has show
n I'm heroic strain and willingness to MAX
n Iany sacrifice for thepeople. Ruff has show
J. Icalmness and discretion Under fire, an

Assessment and taxation laws are being
generally discussed, and will become more
and more interesting as the session of the
convention approaches - assuming that there
may be q convention. A great deal Of criti-
cism has been directed against the present
taxing system and the people have been lead
to believe that the system is responsible for
the inequality in assessments. The truth is
that the system is all right-the trouble lies
with the men who execute the laws. The
same condition will result no matter what
the written law may be. The letter OF tn
law is all right-the trouble IS the spirit Il
which it is carried out.
