Analyzing the Y. M. C. A. Contributions

E. NJ Haas campaign director for the I. NJ
C. A. war fund in Wayne county, has supmltteo
to the public figures showing how the various
townships contributed.
Some highly illumipating facts are disclosed
Patriots in the various townships are given OPP
portunity to compare what their units did. Inc
returns ought to arouse some of these districts
from their lethargy and supine Indifference
Wayne township, for instance, outside OF the
city of Richmond, raised only 80 percent OF It's
allotment; Jackson township only "A percent
Dalton only SO; Abingdon only 48; Center AZ;
Franklin 81.
Doesn't this poor showing indicate lack OF
interest and Of patriotism? Surely these COM
munitles, and others that fell below their quota,
will not admit that they do not have greater IN
terest than that manifested in the reurns?
Some townships covered themselves with
glory.
study of the table printed in the Palladium
last Wednesday will be of monumental worth &c
every one Harrison township shows la per
cent An excellent showing rejecting credit on
the community. The city Of Richmond also went
far beyond it's allotment.

BILE is the most popular book In the tTcHcHeS, anu
that the demand far outdistances the present
supply. The trials and temptations OF war make
a demand on the spiritual stamina OF men, and
everywhere there is turning toward old values
and old virtues.
It is perhaps the emphasis on sacrifice, on the
trivial value of life compared with great prln-
ciples, which makes the Christian religion SO COM
forting and sustaining to the man in the trenches
"He that loveth his life shall lose it. says the
Book; "And he that hateth his life IN this world
shall keep it to life eternal" Confidence in I'M
mortality, belief in force stronger than our
selves, (which makes for righteousness, purity,
courage and loyalty-these are the things which
make armies formidable, preserve morale, win
wars.
A recent number of the Literary Digest re-
ports Admiral Sir John Jellico to have sent these
words to the British navy: "Be strong and OF
good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dis
MAYED: for the Lord thy God will keep thee
whithersoever thou goest. Honor all men. Love
the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king"
| Commander-in-Chief Pershing clearly recog-
nizes the significance of religion as force fol
the preservation of morale among the troops
"Hardships will be your lot" he writes to ar
American soldier 'But trust in God will give you
comfort Temptations will befall you, but faith
in our Saviour will give you strength
Men facing danger and death feel no flippancy
about religion. Instead, there is everywhere 8
cropping toward light, demand for further un
derstanding of life's paradoxes and sacrifices. L
the Church can meet that demand, it will perform
service for the fighting forces of Uncle Sam no
second to that which satisfies physical needs
This campaign, which is to be concentrated int
the period between December, LIST and 18th
. should have the support of every patriotic Chris
/ tian American.
