nation, church from church, have
simply disappeared. No man in uni
form in France cares a copper clack-
er about the individual Characters
tics, which his home church boastod.
He left his sectarianism, and many
of his scruples, somewhere west of
the Atlantic Ocean. The newness of
his state of mind concerning the de-
tails of his faith is hard for the nome
folk to grasp. OF deep, basic reli-
gious conviction he has more than
ever. There is no cheap and cynical
infidelity in the Army. Men who are
daily doing business with death, in
comradeship with noble souls, do not
scoff at the supreme realities.
Discovering Anew an Old Faith
These men in khaki have learned
afresh, not knowing. usually, that
they are but getting a new glimpse Of
first principles, the primary truth OF
the teachings of Jesus. 1t has been
brought to them in two ways that
the most religious thing in the uni
verse is 20 lay down ones life, either
in one act of superb sacrifice or by
daily, commonplace acts of service,
for somebody or something aside
from self.
This great idea first of all CLEANS
before the soldiers eyes as he broods
upon his own enlistment as q SOL
dier. Rightly and significantly. he
calls the military life a Service"
That great word is employed Inter
changeably for either Army or Navy.

building railways. digging roads or
erecting barracks. is called, in the
American Army. the Service of Sup
plies" Fortitude for the great en-
durance of the past four years has
been put into the hearts of our fight
ing men by the knowledge that they
are engaged in holy service of God
and country and all mankind.
AS he comes definitely into touch
with religion. in camp and on the
field, the soldier finds 1t taking quite
different forms from those which he
knew at home. In his new life rolf
gion is synonymous with helpfulness.
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1918-08-09

Chaplains and Y. NJ. C. A. workers
do little or no preaching. They seem
to assume that the soldiers religious
knowledge and purposes may be TAX
en- for granted, and that he may be
depended upon to interpret the real
significance OF what they are doing.
So the days of the avowed exponents
of religion among the soldiers are
filled with ministry.
They serve the men with station
cry and stamps. They provide games,
from checkers to baseball. They
keep a supply of reading matter on
hand. They run moving picture
shows and boxing matches and a
variety of other entertainments. In
their canteens. they supply the Gol-
diers with the things he cannot get
from the army; and when he goes
into battle they follow him with hot
chocolate and other helps. IL he can
not write. they pen his letters for
him. When he is In the hospital,
they visit him and do for him what
ever service is in their power. Liter
ally a hundred and one odd jobs are
the major work of the representative
of religion in the Army. salvation
Army lassies at the front express
their prayers in the form of pies;
their Gospel by goodies.
All of this is a sreturn to the way
of Jesus, VINO went about doing
good and who avowed that He was
come Not to be ministered unto, but
to minister" If the churches have
imperceptibly come to stress services
more than service, it is not because
of their Gospel, but in spite of it.
Really, the church should be fell

sons who are willing to lay down

was in a moment of illumination that
the church began TO call her pastors,
or shepherds. by the Jesus-name of
ministers. Every true clergyman is
above all else the chief servant of
his. community. We stepped aside
from the straight and narrow way
when we began to speak of them
merely as preachers. Apostolic
Christianity was a marvellous mani
festation of self-forgetting service.
Applying the Old Test
One night up at the very front,
during a fierce battle, l spent an in
teresting hour with Chaplain Dan
ker, the first American chaplain TO
lose his life in France. He had un-
dergone a heavy day, including a
visit to the trenches to arrange for
the transport and Identification OF
our slain. Even while we talked
there came a call for his automobi
which he freely placed at the Gis-
posal of his brother officers. His life
was an endless succession of tasks or
ministry; and as he poured out his
heart TO me there was a lament that
he did not have more of a distinc-
lively religious" sort of work. When
he let himself consider his activities,
he longed for more preaching and
spiritual" ministrations. Such was
the conscientious sensitiveness of the
man. AS a simple matter of fact,
his tireIess toll for the men of the
regiment, in endless forms of help
fulness, from mail to money, reveal
ed his mission to them more than
any words could do. 1t was by the
still unfinished grave of one of our
dead, whom he had buried. that a
