Your state leaders will advise you

DR.. John R. Mott, director general

has received the following cablegram
from Dr. Geo. w. Truett, pastor of
the largest Baptist church at Dallas,
Texas, who is now in special Y. NJ. c.
A. work among the men of the Amer
lean Expeditionary Forces: "Our null
titude of soldiers and sailors overseas
constitute an Incompatible challenge
to the patriotic and religious forces
of America. These men now face the
gravest tests of victory, demobiliza-
tion and readjustment and urgently
require the most and worthiest spirit
ual guidance. Less than our best is
unworthy of our men, of our country,
of our opportunities and of our God,
who has saved civilization. The hour
is here when America should dedicate
her utmost for taking a new earth
wherein dwelleth righteousness"
