ON PEOPLE To ASK
GOD FOR DIVINE AID
Action Is Authorized by Ma
tionaI Congress in ReSoIu-
ton Passed at Its. Recent
War Session

WASHINGTON. Oct. 22.-President
Wilson has proclaimed Sunday. Oc-
ober IS. as d day of prayer for the
of American arms. 1t fol
ows:
Whereas as the congress of the
United States, by a concurrent reso-
lution adopted on the fourth gay of
the present month of October. in
view of the entrance of our nation
into the vast and awful war which
now afflicts The greater part of the
world, has requested me to set
apart by official proclamation, a
day on which our people should be
called upon to offer concerted prayer
10 Almighty God for His divine aid
in the success of our arms;
And whereas, il behooves a great
free people, nurtured as we have
been in the eternal principles of
justice and of right, a nation which
has sought from the earliest days
Of it's existence to be obedient to the
divine teachings which have inspired
it in che exercise of its iberties,
to turn always to the Supreme Mas
ter and cast themselves in faith
at His feet, praying for His aid
and succor in every hour or trial,
to the end that the great aims to
which our fathers dedicated our
power as a people may not perish
among men. but be always asserted
and defended with fresh ardor and
devotion and, through the Divine
blessings, set at last upon endur-
ing foundations 70 rthe benefit of
all the free. peoples OF the earth;
Now, therefore, I, Woodrow VIII
son, president of the United States,
gladly responding to the wish ex-
pressed by the congress, do appoint
October %, being the last Sunday of
the present month, as day of
supplication and prayer for all the
people of the nation, earnestly eX-
horting all my countrymen to OBJ
serve the appointed day according
to their several faiths, in solemn
prayer that Gods blessing may rest
upon the high task which is laid
upon US, to the end that the cause
for which we give our lives and
treasure may triumph and our eff
forts be blessed with high achieve
ment.

Givjmg Soldiers Something -
TO Tdke the Place of Vice,
Object of Activ1ty D9v5s1On

Soldiers club provided by the Rota-
rians in the Healey building. Practi-
cally all churches in the city plan to
keep open house on Saturday evening,
with attractive programs to invite the
men. The Jewish Educational Alliance
has already instituted series of Sat-
urday night dances at which the SOL
diers are made welcome.
Philip Russ and his associates from
the Jewish societies are also providing
minstrel shows every week at the camp.
The elaborate and highly diverting en-
tertainments which have been given by
these parties have been among the
features of the camp so far. The Jew
ish soldiers have also. been provided
with invitations to private homes from
the same source.
r. C. Darby and his committee have
provided automobiles in which to take
convaIescent soldiers out airing from
the hospital at Fort Mcpherson. At
least one ride every week has been pro-
vided for all who are able to get out
at all: and this department of the work
has ELECTED great appreciation from the
men. The hospital has also been pro-
vided with flowers and entertainers.
WANTS LIST OF CAR OWNERS.
Armir, Maier, who has charge of fur
.nishing transportation to Camp Gordon
and back for the ladies' committees, is
trying to secure a list of car owners
who can give the committee the use of
their cars on certain nights. The trans
portation problem is serious one.
which has handicapped the Swork
on more than one occasion. Mr.. Maier
and his co-worl1ers are making every
effort to meet the demands of the par
ties who are taking Joy and enjoyment
to the soldiers night after night, and all
who have available cars are asked
communicate with him.
Practically all churches in Atlanta are
making extensive preparations for serv-
wing the men. Many churches have
adopted certain of the Y. NJ. c. A. huts
at the camp and have furnished them.
They have assumed responsibility for
the entertainments in some of these, and
are taking very marked interest in this
feature of the work. They also are
keeping open house /on Saturday even
ing and all day Sunday. The church
committee, of which w. w. Orr. is chair
man, is rapidly co-relating the efforts
of the various churches of the city.
DR.. w. A. Jackson, of Tech, is pro-
vidng special athletic attractions for
the soldiers. He has been successful
in getting special admission fees for
men in khaki to the Tech football
games. and other special concessions
are being undertaken. The stimulat-
ing force of athletics is recognized by
the committee. and every effort is being
made to provide as many events as pos
Sible.
Work for the negroes has recently
been started by a committee of which
DR.. c. B. Wilmer is chairman. The
phase of the work is the newest Of
training camp activities, but it is be-
ing rapidly crystallized. Already the
ladies of the D. A. r. are teaching the
negro women how to make comfort kits
for the colored troops.
