Real War Heroes

Sometimes a great truth loses its
impressiveness because of an unfortu-
nate, even awkward presentation.
For instance: Officers frequently
tell their men that soldier is good
soldier because he salutes properly.
They mean that good soldier salutes
properly because he is a good soldier.
That is something quite different.
The salute does not make the soldier;
the soldier makes the salute.
Properly executed, the salute re-
fleets discipline and devotion. Care
leSsiy given, it reflects lack of disci-
nline and lack of devotion.
The salute should be automatic, but
never mechanical 1t is the individual
expression of an individuals part in
a great uIiitary-more than that, a
great patriotic-undertak
The soldier sees the commissioned
officer, sees in him the authority of
the nation, the authority to command.
The soldier brings himself to the sa-
Iute and, without words, says more
eioquently than he could in words,
You are chosen to lead; will obey"
The officer recognizes the soldier by
returning the salute and says, without
a word, Il realize my responsibilities
and viii endeavor to fulfill them"
Day in and day out, this exchange
of greetings goes on whenever officers
and enlisted men meet. Day in and

cried to America, but from the soil of
Belgium the crucified children cried to
Heaven.
And what the Germans did in Bel
GUM and Poland they praised the,
Turks for doing in Armenia, and the
Bulgarians for doing in Serbia.
Those atrocious outrages on hu-
mainly sprung from the heart OF a
nation that knew not God, for the
Germans have dethroned the God of
Love and set up in His place the
Devil of Lust They have crushed all
noble sentiments in the heart so tina
nothing might interfere with the cold
calculation of the brain. They have
set up an empire on the soil of others
and they will establish unbreakable
control over the soul of man unless
America takes up all that Russia laid
down, and then adds her own ideals
and strength.
To win this war is to make woman
hood safe, to give childhood the PROM
Use of old age, and to insure old age
a peaceful eventide. 1t is to cast out
the demon of cruelty and to re-estab-I
lish the kingdom of honor and kindh-
ness and civilization among men.

mankind has won in the struggle of
the ages, and

A MOMENT OF PRAYER EACH
DAY FOR VICTORY OF DEMOCRACY

A whole christian nation united in
earnest prayer at the same moment of
the day for each day in the year, surely

be the first time in this deadly strue-
GLE
The brave soldier is rarely an un-

tact with the stark realities of life

If these men, who plan their battles in

doubt?
Some emphasize the objective value

is recognition OF the spiritual signific-
