And thankful praise.
o God to Thee we cried.
Thy help was not denied
In wars dark day.
Thou with our armies went
And aid unstinted lent,
So that the foe fled spent,
Or vanquished lay
One pennant be unfurled
Meath which shall all the world 81
Find Joy and peace;
The cross which aye shall bless,
Men pledged to righteousness,
Sweetening all bitterness
That wars may cease.
Lord, as we Thee acclaim,
BY whom redemption came,
Be with us still:
Through days that are to be
Draw men so near to Thee
That all in service free
May do Thy will. Amen.

OUR LOS ANGELES
LETTER.

The Artillery from Camp Kear-
ney passed here en- route to Camp
at Exposition Park. Mary Pickford
is their godmother, and rode with
the mayor to meet them, and back
at the head of the line. She rode
beautiful horse and wore uniform
just like theirs and looked very cute
She will auction off the horse after
the maneuvers to-day. They had
the famous camoufaged batteries
that close look like crazy quilt,
dappled green, orange, brown and
purple, but at 200 yards you get the
idea of their indeinlteness. Tho
they had come nearly 200 miles,
the horses looked so fresh and well
groomed, and such a bonnY lot of
men, thousand, several hundred
from here, brown and erect, the
real thing. The girls pelted them
with flowers comfort bags, cigaret
ties etc. They had some band, too.
The cannon. guns, ambulances, sup
plies, mascots and everything were
noct iDtaractinU
We had a wonderful drive the |
other day thru Turnbull canyon
where you may look down aad see
six and seven lengths of the cork
screw trail twisting below to Whit
tier, where has recently been COM
pleted the largest Quake church
in the world. This little city is a
Friends Settlement and noted for
it's educational and literary atmo-
sphere.
Only recently the venerable Mrs.
Lydia Sharpless, the mother of the
community died at the ripe old age
of one hundred years and some mon
tbs.
The largest and most valuable a
vocado tree in the world is here at
Whittier and we drove over fifty |
miles thru avocado and orange or
chards, the air so sweet it was over
powering-for you know the lemon
trees bloom from six to twelve times
a year and there are blossoms on
the orange trees while laden with
fruit. The crop this season is mag
nifcient and the trees are kept Drun
ed 80 the fruit may be easily pick
ed. You can stop at one of the lit
tie Jap stands which line the road
and get sack containing hundreds
of lemons or oranges for about a
quarter.
The roads are simply wonderful
turn-pikes, canyon trails and lined
even thru the mountains. with rose
covered trellises, pepper trees or
palms and all up thru the mountains
are terraces on which orange trees
we're in full bloom and full of fruit.
In spite of the fact that we have
not had but one good rain in ten
months, everything is fresh and
green and blooming, for of course
everything is irrigated.
Up on Mt. Badly and the lower
ranges we could see snow, but ii
seemed like painted scenery for the
air, while keen. was SO soft and
sun too wonderful for snow to be
so near,
We reached the very top of the
trail in time for sunset which was
worth seeing, but the solid stream
