SERv|CEFLAGDED|CATEDATST ST. ANDREWS
Presented to Church By Ladies' Guild Has IA StarsUn- frled and Dedicated at the Altar Patriotic Sermon By the Rev. William H. Smith.

ton dies, we no longer have freedom, and it is largely on this account that we are now at war
 At the present moment our eye is on the battlefront. Our boys and men are at this moment taking their place on the front line in the trenches. The die is cast There is no turning back. How is this nation to acquit itself honorably and creditabfy?
 There is but one way; that is to resist pertinaciously, to be calm in reverses, to trust in Ged.
 Victory comes as a matter of fact to those who are resolved and to none other Tn every field of mans work illustrations are supplied in trade, in science, in adventure. By this deter nination not to submit to defeat men have been able to subdue the most mysterious and devastating plagues, and if we are sufficiently resolute, by pertinacious resistance we shall holI back the foe.
 In reverses we must be calm and col leeted. Gradually we are awaking to the tremendous conflict in which we are engaged. The foundations of the world are being broken up. The ca lamities are appalling. Our first duty | is to do our duty day by day in quiet ness and in confidence. The policy of l the foe is to create panic. We must avoid this. We must prevent as far as we can all confusion and restlessness; otherwise the task facing our armies will be infinitely greater.
 But let us never forget that behind | our armies, behind the power of guns and munitions, there must be faith in God. Faith attracted the attention and gained the commendation of the Son ] of God. The morals of Socrates, the | philosophy of Plato, the logic of Aris- totle, the orations of Desmothenes were extant in Christ's day. The bat
 ties of Alexander had been fought. and l the victories of the Caesars had taken l place, and Rome herself; mistress ot | the world, had been esta blished on her
 seven hills. Jesus had not single
 word to say about any of these; but l when he saw faith he marveled. He marveled because he himself
 knew that faith in God alone enables
 men to struggle on in the face of ap- 1 parent impossibilities. What we need today is to feel that in doing our, duty
 we are doing Gods will. In upholdins justice against injustice, moralit!
 against immortality, and freedom against tyranny, we have done oul
 duty to both God and man; and WI can well afford to leave the issues O
 the war in the hands of God
 God will give victory, although
 may not be just the kind og victor,
 men covet. God has already givel
 victory, the cause of truth has alreadl
 triumphed, inasmuch as civilization
 took a forward leap when the ideal for which we are fighting and whicl
 are worth dying for sank down ,deel
 into the consciousness of man. Thes
 ideals are how ineradicable and vii be dictatofial in the days which ar yet to come.
 For a recessional a national hymn t
 the tune Materna, was sung by tn choir. The flag was then placed in tn , ambulatory where it will remain fo the present.

cHILDREN's DAY

tor Gives Blackboard Talk on Daniel.
 At the First Methodist church Sum- day, was devoted to the children. They formed the choir and were large part of the congregation, and in the evening gave concert program of songs and recitations. Baskets of other June flowers made bright the audience room.
 The morning sermon by the pastor, Rev. William Crawford, was the story of Daniel, a blackboard talk, using the letters of his name to spell elements of Daniels character. Daniel was a boy of the olden time who had been carried away from home to Babylon among idolatrous people, he said. No matter where he was, Daniel did as the Lord wanted him to do. He made up his mind not to do what was wrong.
 Of the characteristics first devoted. Daniel was devoted to his God. he had conVicstions and was true to them in a strange land, his behavior was not changed because he was far from home. Second, Aggressive He was not backward about standing up for his convictions, yet he was tactful in the demands of the king as to wines and ! danties. Third, near, Daniel was near | to God, that was the secret of his ! strength of character. That is the secret of the strength of children, men i and women today. Fourth, Innocency How many of us can say we are in- ! nocent of any known sin? Fifth, En- thusiastic. He was in the heart o1 things true to his convictions, even ir a den of lions he trusted God and die his duty. Men with principle. stabili- l ty and loyalty are needed in the pews of our churches today. Daniel was { busy man with the affairs of the king dom, yet while he attended to the low | CT things did not forget the higher And the last word spelled by the let ters is loyalty. These are the onl! kind of people whom God can use ant upon whom He can rely. These quail ties will make boys great and goot men.
