There was evening prayer and an address Sunday afternoon at the Shell tering Arms by Rev. J. w. Areson, assisted by the choir of Grace Epis- timely address was. Praying always with all prayer and application. Ev- cry minister was glad to accede the presidents request for special prayer stress and trouble, said the speaker. Prayer is the most important and most common thing in life. We believe that God exists. that He directs the forces of nature. 1t Is just as true that He directs our lives. The shortest, simplest prayer brings strength. God has put spiritual life into our hearts, the spirit of prayer touches that life and enables us to grow. The most powerful prayer may come from 9 dying bed. If we keep the spirit of prayer through the years. we grow sweeter and as the outward man de- cayeth the inner man is renewed.
 Solomon's prayer of dedication sug- day who are offering their prayers be- fore Gods high altar and are receiv- ing lessons to be learned in no other way. As we think of the thousands in camps, hardly one but who has mother, sister or wife praying for them, will not these prayers make them strong in trial and suffering and help to bring them home in safety? To these prayers comes King Solo, mons refrain. Then when Thou hear est in heaven. forgive. Then shall come the spirit of willingness that shall say. Thy will be done. Let us be thankful that the government rec ognizes the tremendous power of pray CT. We know that the prayer of the righteous man ava1leth much. God hears and He will answer.
