Calls fof 1907.
At the Park Avenue M. E. Church
the Rev. O. w. Taylori announced the
Fourth Liberty Loan and called upon
the members of his congregation for a
one hundred per cent response. He de-
| clared that every man who believed in
the cause of righteousness must bear
this call for help as call to him per-
sonaIly. The loan was announced at
the Sunday schools at the church and
seconding an appeal for "adequate
sacrifice the boys of the church
were organized to aid in selling the
Liberty Loan bonds.
| AT the Congregational Church.
| In urging the Fourth Liberty Loan
yesterday morning, DIR. Sell, pastor of
the First Congregational Church drew
a parallel between the calling of the
Tsraelitish nation to their mission and
the situation of the United States, at
| the present time, in making democracy
safe for the world.
! In Genesis we have a nation called
out from other nations for a divine
purpose--to be self governing under
divine leadership.
| In Exodus we have this nation sep
arated from other nations by emigra-
ton over the Red Sea into the Sinaitic
Desert. 1t was not safe for it to re-
main under the imperialistic dominion
of Egypt. Tt would have failed to
develop its democratic mission. It was
for forty years under instruction until
| it had learned its lesson. Likewise the
people in the United States had been
called out ,of the imperialistic govern
lments of Europe. What the Red Sea
was to the Israelites the Atlantic
Ocean has been to the United States.
The emigration of over hundred
years and the isolation made by two
oceans accomplished the same purpose
as the desert wandering of the Israe-
lites. The United States is the new
experiment in democracy.
In Leviticus we see the laws made
to make democracy safe. A people
clean in body, mind and morals. The
