PATRIOTIC MEETING

Last Sunday evenings service will
be long remembered by those present
in the Presbyterian church. The house
was crowded not only to hear the
special musical program, but also to dc
honor to the boys of the church whl
are now in the service of Uncle Sam.
The names appearing on the "Hono,
Roll" are Samuel Rex Smith, Eugene
Cross, Marvin Mcmillan, James W
Bell, Raymond Heisler and Ed Everett
Jr.
The "Service Flag with it's six
stars spoke its mute message of love,
devotion, patriotism and self-sacrifice'
The "Honor Roll,' with the names of
the boys written thereon by those
nearest and dearest to them, made all
realize that the dread scourge of war
had indeed come to all homes and to all
of our families.
The program given included the fol-
lowing numbers:
Cornet Solo ......... Kenneth Smith
Vocal Solo-E'The Story of Old Glory
............ Miss Violet Hammond
Battle Hymn of the Republic. .....
....... ............... fieu
Hammond, Mill Budlong, Alex Allen
The junior classes of the Sunday
school gave very impressive salute to
the two flags, the "Star Spangled Ban
ner' and "The Church Conquest
Flag" These flags were carried by
two Boy Scouts, Henry Riggs bearing
cold Glory,'' and Frank Thomas the
Conquest Flag"
Rev. Findlay D. McMartin, pastor of
the church, delivered what is said by
many to be Que Of the best addresses
on the subject Of patriotism that has
been given in the city. He spoke on
the "Service Flag" emphasizing the
need for all to equal the devotion and
self-sacrifice of those who are at the
front fighting our battles for us. Urg-
ing all to get into the battle against
evil wherever found and striving to
make people see that If they are not
