METHODIST CHURCH NOTES

Temperance Day last Sunday al
the Methodist Church was a marked
success. The interest manifested in
the morning service was intensified
in the evening meetings when the
EpwOrth League carried out a pro-
gram relating to temperance con-
ditiOns in Berea. Quite heated
and prolonged discussion was pre-
cipitated when Mr. vogel and others
produced some startling facts OF ex-
isting conditions in our community.
Several Of the city officials were
present and took part in the dis
cussions..
The revival meetings now in pro-
gress at the Methodist Episcopal
Church are increasing in interest and
attendance from night TO night.
Much conviction is manifest and
some are deciding for the Christian
life. The pastor extends an invita-
ton TO all Christian workers in the
community TO come and help in the
good fight.
AT the morning services next Sun
day the pastor will speak upon a
special theme relative TO "Child
Welfare" This is in harmony with
a program being carried out by the
WOmen's Clubs OF Berea.

PRESIDENT CALLS ON PEOPLE
TO RENEW LOYALTY TO U. S.

President Wilson has issued the fol-

the United States:
My Fellow-Countrymen:
Many circumstances have recently
conspired to turn our thoughts 10 a
critical examination OF the conditions
OF our national life. of the influences
which have seemed to threaten to di-
vide us in interest and sympathy. Of
forces within and forces without that
seemed likely to draw us away from
the happy traditions OF united purpose
and action OF which we have been so
proud.
IL has therefore seemed to me fitting
that I should call your attention to the
approach of the anniversary of the day
upon which the hag of the United
states was adopted by the Congress as
the emblem of the Union and TO sug.
gest TO you that it should. this year
and in the years TO come, be given spe.
cial significance as day of renewal and
reminder day upon which we should
direct our minds with a special desire
of renewal to thoughts of the ideals and
principles Of which we have sought Ia
make our great government the EN-.
bodirent
I therefore suggest and request that
throughout the nation and. II possible.
