Patriots Fought for Liberty.

The only way by which the signers
of the Declaration of Independence
could make their proclamation of liberty
effective was to fight for il. So, under
the leadership of George Washington,
the colonists carried the war through to
victory. To make Christs proclamation
of spiritual liberty effective in our own
lives we must fight for it under Christ,
the captain of our salvation If We
are to be good soldiers of Jesus Christ
we must be courageous and ready to face
the foe. We must he willing to work
There is more effort than ease in the
Chr stan life lana one does not find
many tiowery beds of ease floating up
to heaven. There is much hard work
in the fight for Christian character. A
good soldier of Jesus Christ must also
be obedient: he must submit himself to
his officer and trust implicitly in him.
There is grave danger in a disobedient
soldier. The Christian soldier should be
loyal. too; Christ demands full and
sole allegiance.
Battles for Freedom.
Not only must a war be waged for
personal spiritual liberty. but Chris
tians must fight for the spiritual free
dom of society. Evil exercises terri
BILE tyranny over society: evils are
strongly intrenched in all our great
cities. ignorance and fear hold multi

"rhe Druze warriors in Syria before
they go into battle dance their war
dance and then each man is asked
solemnly. Are you a good man? Are
you true man. And each gives
solemn affirmation of his valor. So
the question comes to all Christian
soldiers. Are you a good man? Are
you true man" Posters throughout
England are calling to the young men
of that land, saying. Enlist today.
Your king and your country need you.
To you comes the call in the war of
good against evil, Enlist today. Your
