State Wide Prayer League

Dr.. Howard A. Kelly, the great
surgeon of Baltimore, who devotes
much of his very active life toward
religious advancement and social bet
terment of the people, and who has
repeatedly addressed public meetings
in many parts of the State, proposes
the formation of a Statewide prayer
league. He writes:
Every Christian processes by the
very name by which he is called
deep and abiding interest in all that
helps or hurts his fellows, so to the
Christian 1 appeal for cooperation.
l seek to form a Statewide prayer
circle of thousands of citizens in the
city of Baltimore and in the State of
Maryland, a group made up of all
who will join me daily in brief sea-
son of midday prayer, either retiring
to the privacy Of ones own room or
turning to God, our Father, wherever
we may be, whether working in the
shop or in the field or tthe desk, or
even, if need be, as we walk the
street with companion.
would hold up two objects in
this short petition: First. let us
pray for the publication of our State
and city government, that we may
have honest men to represent and
serve us, and where we know that
certain men are not honest public
servants ask that God will either re-
move or convert them, naming the
men, if we are sure they are evils
minded. Second, l would ask our
God and Father to arouse the Chris
tian church to its opportunity and it's
bounden duty to step out in paths of
aggressive Christian service. Will
not all Christians join this little
band, both Protestants and Catho
lies? No earthly roll or list is kept
of those thus banded together.
We have reached a point in our
national history when 1 feel sure we
must either make or break, and l be-
lieve that honest, earnest prayer,
coupled with the works that are in
Iseparable from real prayer, will make
the difference between the two, while
mere philanthropy with Christ left
out is but waste of effort.

Soldiers Letter

France, Dee. -. 1918.
Dearest Mother:
1t has been Il conlic u weeks

didn't write WAS that we have been
moving and did no, nave ,hc time.
Our last move Was about hundred

and stopping in billets at night.
Now that the war is over can tell
YOU that when We left The States we

teen other ships and sailed fol Liver

Halifax on July 4th. When We ar
rived in Liverpool We entrained at
once and weAt across England to
Southampton. where We spent one
day. That night they slipped us
across the English Channel to Cher
| bourg, France.
On our entire trip from Baltimore
| TO France we had excellent tuck; once
they sighted submarine, but they
! dropped few bombs and We never
| heard any more from il; that was the
! clly excitement we had on the en-
tire trip.
After we got here it was a series
| of moves. A few weeks here and a
! few days somewhere else; our long
est stop was when we were training
at Camp Mencon for several weeks.
j Mencon was a nice camp, near the
! city of Vaunes. When we left there
we came all the way across France
| in box cars, to the front, we thou
ght, but on our way the armlstlce
was signed, cheating us ont OF our
chance at the Boche. Since then we
have been moving around here few
miles back of the front; we are, l
/! believe, in what they call the Nosages
Mountains, and we seem to have hit
the rainy season. l have not seen
! the sun, except for a few minutes at
i time, for weeks.
! We have not the slightest idea yet
as to when we are to get home; II
we don't have to go into Germany as
occupation troops, it may not be so
long. l got letter from both Alton
and Emory today, and enjoyed them
very much, and when 1 get time III
answer them both. Also heard from
Homer the other day, and when get
back he wants me out there with
| him. l think l shall go. l haven't
seen any of the old company boys
since have been over here, but this
| last move has brought us in their
vicinity, so 1 expect to see some of
them soon.
| Well, mother, dear, it is nearing
Xmas again. I hope another year l
will Be able to spend it with you. We
are fixed very comfortable here, in
good, warm quarters, and | am, as
/ usual, in the best of health and splr-
! its. as are most of the boys. We are
not having any sickness now to speak
of. About all we do now is wonder
where we go from here, and when,
and what we are going to do when
we get home. We also get lot OF
pleasure out of inventing and pass
ing on rumors, always adding bit
when we pass them.
Well, mother, I'll say good-n1gn,
/ for this time; hope you are all well,
and 1 hope to see you all soon.

CAMP FIRE NOTES

The first point of the Camp Fire
Law is "Seek Beauty"
At first glance this seems a very
strange ideal to embody in a Camp
Fire Law, but if given deeper thought
its appropriateness becomes evident.
The impulse to seek beauty is nat
ural to every girl. The camp fire
takes this into account and seeks to di-
rect her search for beauty into right
channels; to the beauty that is lasting
and invaluable, not the superficial
beauty of face or form.
Camp Fire Girls look for beauty in
the things of nature, the voice of the
winds and waters, the songs of birds
and the form and perfume of flowers.
They also look for beauty in good
health, in a happy disposition, and
most of all perhaps they find beauty
in free and joyful service.
The Soangetaha Camp went for a
short hike the evening of the four
teenth and enjoyed a vicente roast
along the bank of the Wenatchee.
This is the first outdoor activity of
the camp. We hope it may be fol-
lowed by many others. -

Rev. Snowden, five years ago pas
tor of the Leavenworth M. E. church,
writes to friends that he lost his wife
three weeks ago, leaving a young
baby and three other children. 1t will
be recalled that he was quite severely
injured in an auto accident on the
Beaver creek hill while he lived here.
Thos. ]. Coleman who left here
eleven years ago for Spirit Lake,
Idaho, stopped off here yesterday to
attend to some business matters. He
is in the general mercantile line at
his home town, and of course has pros
pered, as we are pleased to learn. He
will be remembered as a Great Nor
thern machinist who made his home
here for a number of years.

Mr.. A. G. Mccoy came back last

makes his home, Sand Point, is very
prosperous. laundering is the chief
industry, but farming is forging to the
front very fast. Mr. Mccoy returned

Gus Poepmuller, father of VIII
Poepmuller, spent several days here
last week visiting his son and left for
Three Lakes Sunday morning, where
he has been employed in lumber
mill since last fall. He said the lum-
Der business on the west side was
flourishing and many mills running
day and night. Mr.. Poeppmuller is
about sixty years old and in the past
two years has managed to save lit
tie over two thousand dollars from
his wages. When a sixty year old
man, with a crippled hand, can lay
by this sum from his savings as a
day laborer he shows what those more
favored and younger could do if they
have the will to save. That is, how
ever, the trouble with most of US, we
have not the will to save.

BIG APPLE CROP THIS YEAR

That the coming fall will see the
heaviest crop of apples ever raised in
the Wenatchee valley, also the highest
prices, is the prediction now being
made by growers and others who have
studied the fruit situation. Already
fruit buyers are in the valley making
contracts with the growers, and from
all accounts most of the buyers are
willing to make a straight price of
$3.50 orchard run for apples, and we
have heard of instances where $500
has been offered. Most of the grow
ers, however, we are told are holding
back and are in no hurry to sign up
for their crop, as it is generally be-
lieved that there will be top notch
prices this year.
1t has been reported lately that the
citrus fruits of California will be short
this sason, also that tn eeastrn ap-
pie crop production will not be up
to normal. This will have tendency
to make the fruit buyers more eager
than ever to get Wenatcchee valley
apples.
Sales of orchard land are increasing
every week and there is probability
that there will be a big demand for
five and ten acre tracts before the
summer is over. Altogether the COM
ing summer and fall promises to be
the most prosperous that the Wenat
chez valley ever experienced.
