Humanity this morning looks upon the fairest day
that has dawned upon the world. Yesterday was
Gods day. but this is yours He has given it to YOU
Never before have you had greater for hanksgv
ing for you have lived to the hand of God at work in
the world In His infinite wisdom He has watched over
you and guided you in the most trying days of history
When evil and pestilence threatened to destroy the
world the Silent Ally at your SIDE When the hand
OF war fell heavily upon your home He to give
you strength and courage to bear your He watched
over you when your burden of wa had bought you dan
geously falterng in the faith that the right shall
ever prevail With peace by victory he has lifted load
OF doubt from your mind vi
That God still lives is evidenced in the events Of the
last twentyfour hours What greater joy can come to
the human heart than that which Of knowing that
Providence with the righteous? The that has
been brought you the last twentyfour hours
something than allied victory for it is evidence
before the world that he who opposes Gods will cannot
endure If ever there were time when men and women
should offer thanks in prayer is now, when the world
is emeging from the turmoil of to the comforting
days of Yesterday Gods day for the wonders
performed were inspired of Him.
Peace, the peace for which men fought and died. the
peace Tor wncn women hoped ana prayed the peace
which little children urged in their prayers here Could
any other word mean to the human heart today?
The world is poorer but the struggle of the last
four years Evil is gone and righteousness has been
installed in the world These are great broad statements
which little to the individual but they are empha
sized and made clear every home in the world sees
peace from its own firesde.
Is there soul in the world who has not seen this
tan struggle through the heart of loved one who
has gone forth the great adventure? Is there man.

war through the pulse Of father, husband, sweetheart
count among their possessions love for some soldier kin
or friend who will bring joy to their hearts when he
turneth.
If it is human, you will find the answer. Need we ask
what peace to the m0therwho has watched over
the little service flag in the window from troube-tossed
pillow? Need we ask what joy comes to her heart she
lays her head down in well earned rest happy in the
knowledge that her boy is coming back? We intrde if
we assume to ask what happiness to the wife and
the child of the soldier when they hear that the dangers
OF war no longer beset their loved one.
AS for the men, the men who have borne the brsnt Of
the burden in Europe is there soul dead that it can
not feel what this great word to them? American
gratitude easily be measured by these sentiments
dhe dawn OF peace means to allies because
they have suffered longer and because thew have seen
from u.s. For the brave dead there be but one thought
The good they have done lives after them and so thew
have not died in vain From their nobel estates they will
look down upon and the blessings thew have preserved
this peace shall forever endure must be their hope in the
hour OF the great victory for which they died
Yesteday was day of Judgment a day when God
rghted the wrongs Of world Before that all was the
darkness of fear of sorrow and of sffeng We are at
the dawn OF new day and in its spendor it is perfect
