METHODIST CHAPLAIN
In The MELTING POT
REV. JOHN PAUL TYLER CHAP.
Lam il} FRANCE OF COM
PANY OF 10 NATIONALITIES.

In this country every American
worships God under his own vine
and fig tree" but three thousand
miles from our peaceful shores. with
al accompaniment of shrieking shells
and spluttering machine guns, where
green vineyards have been wrecked
and biacAened by ruthless Prussian
armies, a million and a half American
! boys worship God according to the
dictates of their individual hearts un-
der one banner-the American flag.
Contributing largely to the courage
Gus faith of these soldiers are MANY
army chaplains and welfare workers
of various religious callings, but the
watch words of all of these are God
and America" and the undying spirit
of this supreme call will have much
to do with Americas victory over
Prussianism.
Capt. Oliver o. Melton, company
K, 325th infantry, Somewhere in
France" who is the son of DR.. Wight
man F. Melton, of Emory University,
tells in an article in the Atlanta Con-
stltution how the American soldiers
feel towards religious and welfare
workers and at the same time en-
! phaslzes the fact that the American
army is veritable melting pot"
Our regiment is made up of some
twenty or more nationalities," writes
Capt. Melton. "In my company alone
there are eighteen different national
tiles represented. To be chaplain to
such a body of men is no little job.
FULLY forty per cent. are Catholics,
ten per cent. Jews, and the remainder
range all the way from good old
shouting Methodists to Holy Rollers"
I Capt. Melton pays tribute to his
company chaplain, Lieut.. Jno. Paul
Tyler, of the Baltimore Methodist
conference. chaplain Tyler is our
friend" he says. Recently the chap
lain held services for my battalion on
top of very high mountain. The
top flattened out into a plateau, and
the plateau was bristIing with forti-
/ tications. His pulpit was the top of
a gun emplacement. The music was
( furnished by the regimental band
and the audience was made up of
some nine hundred men. Catholics
Jews, Protestants and even Atheists
sat at his feet and listened to his
message. And his message was an in
spired one. "More than c'nquerers, .

There Is Heap of Solace in Being

For months Dawson readers have
seen the constant expression of praise
for Doan's Kidney Pills, and read
about the good work they have done
IN this locality. What other remedy
ever produced such convincing proof
of merit?

Then suddenly the United States

sense of Intervention, but to help the
Czecho-Slovaks, and simultaneously
suggested that Japan send number
