The Arizona copper camp., 1919-11-15

1 believe so, as a whole We have
tried to do what we could in the buy
ing of bonds and stamps and we have
made the sacrifices very gladly. We
have been back of the men who were
fighting these battles for God and hui
manity. And the young people, the
girls and boys, have been back of the
soldiers while they were in the camps
and on the battlefie1ds. All of us,
therefore, have right to claim a
part in the victory that you have
won.
eve have been back of our men
also in the prayers that have gone up
for them while they were on the
battlefield and in the camps; and I
tell you that nothing has meant so
much as the prayers of people that
the right might win. 1t has been IN
answer to those prayers that right
eousness has won and that it won as
quickly as it did. You remember the
time when we were all asked to con-
fess our sins and pray for the sue
cess of our armies. We did this on
that day and we know that the results
began to come soon after that. Those
prayers were heard. We were back
of our boys in our prayers.
The Fight Ahead
Nov they come to organize them
selves in to what they call the Amer
ican Legion; the purposes of which
we have read. There are ten points
in that preamble for which the Amer
lean Legion stands. We have been
back of our boys while they were win
ming the victory and now we ask To
be associated with them in what is
to be accomplished We come to ask
the soldiers what we can do in carry
ing forward these principles for which
they stand as a legion. l want to
notice some things that are yet to be
done. In response to love for right,
for home, for country, for humanity,
and for God; some things are yet to
be done. We must fight, we must
continue to fight. l do not think that
we will ever get to that place where
we will not have to fight until this
age shall have come to an end 1t
is continuous warfare. We must
fight our enemy Our enemy is Satan
1t is the same enemy that the soldiers
have fought on the battlefield. He
was back of all that was going on
that was wrong. He was not back of
anything that was right; but he was
back of all that wrong. Those lead
ers we fought were his agents. He
has his agents working in the world.
What he has done through his agents
in the past is only a little taste of
what he would do for each one Of
us if he had the power to do it. Some
have compared the doings of one
whom we believe was especially re-
sponsible for the awful WARMTH the
doings of Satan as though they would
put him to shame. It is a mistake,
my friends. All evil doings come
from Satan and he will do 10000
times as much if he can. This enemy
is still active. He is making trouble
against all that is right. The battles
are not all over. The most real bat
ties are yet to be fought and are now
being fought. l say battles that were
fought on the fields of Europe were
not greater than those that are now
being fought in the moral and spirit
ual world. We are to be soldiers to
fight against this enemy We must
fight him. He is a personal enemy.
This world is the battlefield where
all these battles are to be fought. Our
leader is a great Leader. We like
to think about the leaders in this
war, those whom our soldiers fol-
lowed, and who had the care of our
soldiers and the armies with which
they were associated. My friends, we
have a great Leader and that Leader
is Jesus Christ. The Son of God is
our Leader; and there is no place He
would ask us to go where He would
not go. There is no battle where He
is not willing to go with us and help
us to fight. In fact it is only through
Him that we could fight these bat
ties. Thanks be to God which Civ
eth us the victory through our Lord
Jesus Christ We are sure of victory
through this great Leader. He says,
Follow me- He is with us through
all the battles that we have to fight.
He is right there, right there! We
can depend on Him always and we
will triumph through Him.
100 Per Cent Americanism
1--WE must fight to defend our coun-
try. Our country must be defended
against the anti-Americanism | know
that is our duty. l think it is right
and religious because of what our
country stands for 100 per cent Amer
