rOqua Christian Church,

AH-Wse and most merciful Father. we
come into thy presence this morning seek
ing for wisdom, for tact, for discretion in
the duties that are before US. Help these

We pray, To-day. for our Nation, for our
President and for those in authority with

unto them as they seek TO guide the af-
fairs of this country. We pray for the
nations of the earth they strive to solve
the problems Of these days of crises.
We pray today for the young men who
have gone from this and other counties

to us clean and pure and strong. There
are fathers here today whose sons have
answered the call of country. We pray
for them in their anxiety for the sons

today upon beds of sickness in the camps
and we pray shat in accordance with Thy
good Providence they may speedily be re-
stored to health and strength.
We thank Thee for the spirit of brother
hood that looks out beyond the country

have deeper interest in humanity. Help
us men to follow the leadership of the
Man Of all Men, Jesus of Nazareth. We
ask in His name. Amen.

GERMANY BARS RED CROSS FROM POLAND

Owing to the fact the German drive
has so encircled and overrun Poland
that communication and transporta-
ton Of supplies is impossible, the Red
Cross at present is unable to do a
great deal for Poland
The matter, however, Is under con-
slant consideration, and the Red Cross
will be guided by the policy of the
administration concerning Polish re-
ief as soon as such a policy is formed.
To send money to Poland would be
practically sending it to Germany, and
for that reason both the Red Cross
and the administration have done little
of late.
On Nov. s, 1871. the Red Cross ap-
propriated 100000 for the relief of
destitute Polish children. They also
sent $l25.oOO for the relief of Lith-
uania, and appointed member of the
Pussan commission to take personal
charge of the question Of Polish re-
lief.
The Red Cross is ready TO go to
any lengths to assist Poland, but can
not move eXtentively as long as 1t
remains in German hands.

Now let me see In the last story old
Hooty Tooty, the big Owl climbed into
the window while dear Uncle Lucky
was sound asleep, you remember, and
frightened away little Miss LMousie.
And then Uncle Lucky made that dis
agreeable owl go home to his nest in
the barn, where The Weathercock
crowed at three in the morn to wake
the hired man forlorn, who raked the
leaves and cut the grass and tied his
cravat in the old looking glass.
Well, as that old owl had flown
away, Uncle Lucky looked at his gold
watch and chain, and it was almost
thirteen o'clock. So what was the use
Of going to bed, for nobody sleeps after
thirteen o'clock in Rabbitville. And
after the old gentleman IA bbit had tied
his blue silk polkadot handkerchief
around his neck, he went down stairs
as softly as you please so as not to
wake up Billy Bunny and Mr.. Jack
Hare who were still sound asleep and
dreaming of pink clovertops and let
tuce leaves
"Now let me see" said the old gen.
tleman rabbit to himself cts certainly
time for those two lazy rabbits to get
up. but somehow, I hate to wake
them" so what do YOU suppose he did.
He went into the sitting room and
wound up tho Sonora and pretty soon
It began to sing this song
"Wake up wake up! It's time to
dress
It's half-past seven, more or less,
And Happy Sun is in the sky.
And little birds begin to fly.
