Mr.. Hurd writes. ito overlook other
aspects Of the war-notably the fun

After a period of fifteen months, dur

steadily declined, the downward ten

firmer than at any previous period OF
the war.
4 Every Ship a Target.
''Seven million tons of shipping en-
ter or leave our ports monthly. Each
ship is the target for enemy subma-
rines yet there have been days in the
present week when the enemy has not
secured a single ship.
Twelve months ago we were with
difficulty maintaining one stream of
traffic. namely that which brought us
food and raw materials. Today sup
plies are flowing thru this main artery
in greater volume than a year ago. AT
the same time another stream of traf-
fic has started and merchant ship
ping has been made available for the
greatest transport movement which
has ever been carried out.
Troops Moved Fast.
For three months past American
troops have oeen coming across the
Atlantic by tens of thousands, far
faster than at one time was thought
possible. That means that the bal
ance between the allies and the cen
trail powers is being adjusted in favor
of the former"

Sunday services were interesting.
The morning congregation was larger
than usual. The Junior choir rem
dered fine service. Voluntary
The Lord Is My Shepherd. Anthem
THE Song of Songs" Offertory
The Saviour's Son. At night, the
Mizpah Choir gave good music. The
pastor gave short biograph of the
Patriotic Joseph. Joseph never
sowed any wild oats. No boy should
be taught that the sowing of wild
oats is necessary. No man in pub
lie life has to forget God. Joseph
honored God from youth to old age
and preserved his integrity and
purity under all conditions of life.
Every boy should be familiar with
this beautiful character.
He was a man of God in the tribe,
in the home of Patiphar, in Pha-
orah's priors or at the head of Egyp-
tian Sffairs as an instrument in
Gods hands to conserve the food
supply of the world. He always
played the part that fell to him and
did so bravely and in the fear of
God. No man could read this and
doubt that God raised him up for this
great work to save the world from
famine. God had raised up men
for great things throughout human
history. He still does that Surely
he has raised an American, in the
person of Woodrow Wilson, to pre-
sent human liberty and religious
freedom upon earth and to make il
possible for the smallest nation or
the humblest man on the face of the
earth to be protected in those rights
Let us all love, and trust a great
God.
