A Barrage Of Prayer.

The senate has passed a resolution
calling for daily prayer in behalf o.:
the nation, its fighting sons, its cause.
everywhere and of every faith pause
at the hour of noon to pray.
There will be t; ose who will speak
scornfully of this proposal. Let
them keep to themselves their unbe
lief Millions Of Americans will vel
come the idea because it gives nat
ional expression TO the truth that
spiritual values are the supreme con-
cern in this war and that spiritua,
forces must have their part in win
ming it.
In little folder issued by some
Loop business men who have been
meeting daily for prayer an incident
is told of the early days. Of the war:
When the telegram announcing
the French victory over the German
hordes at the battle Of the Marne i'll
September, 1914, was delivered to the
English war department, Lord Rob
erts, who was in Lord Kitchener's Of
fee, said: 'Only God Almighty
COQtO have OOIS (iiAS. -Aib1 A-OA ~
Kitchener said quietly: Somebody
must have been praying
The same folder quotes General
Foch as saying concerning prayer:
I'VE shall be saved by it. and it will
not be the, first time in this deadly
struggle
The brave soldier is rarely an un-
believer. He comes in such close
contact with the stark realities OF
life and death that he feels the need
of God. If these men, who p!4n their
battles in terms Of manpower, OF
guns and shells and airplanes, find
place for prayer as factor in fight
ing for righteous cause, what civil
ian dare opp Sc his little three-foot
shelf of Intellectual doubt?
Some emphasize the objective val
ue of prayer; some make more Of it's
subjective value Tie particular the
ory is Of small 1noment.s The vital
thing is recognition Of the spiritual
significance of this great conflict. With
few exceptions, all of us, whatever
be our creed, can find common
