CLOSING
 II REMARKS
ON VICTORY LOAN

We are asked to pay for things that were never used; we are asked to pay for shells that never were fired; for cannon that never reached the battlefront, but we are asked to pay for those things that helped in a major way to bring this war 10 an end in 1918 instead of 1919. And the bringing of this war to an end twelve months before we could logically look for lt means that we are asked to pay for saving the lives of 100000 or 200, 1000 Ameri- can boys who would have died on foreign soil bad the war continued another year. "-Extract from a speech by Hon. Lewis B. Franklin, Director War Loan Organization, U. s. Treasury.

GREAT ARMY THAT DIED.

A NoN-sEcTARIAN DRIVE.

One Of the most valuable features
OF the coming statewide drive in Ken
lucky, April III, for the relief Of Jew
ish war sufferers in eastern Europe,
is that it is being participated in by
people of all faiths. Last year be-
tween $4,000 and 100000 was raised
in Kentucky for this work, but prac-
tically all of it was given by Jewish
people. This was in line with their
previous efforts In every campaign
in the state and in all communities to
raise money for charitable purposes
the Jewish people have been glad to
be among the foremost givers. Now
that they are asking their neighbors
to join with them TO aid the starving
millions in the war-devastated battle
zones of eastern Europe, they are be-
ing met with a hearty response.

Editor of the New York World,
My dear Sir:
There appeared in your paper 4
few days ago a letter containing
this statement, IF the soldiers
could have voted on the prohibit
ton amendment it would have been
defeated"
Now we as men in uniform are
taking the liberty to convey to TINS
author the fact that his statement
is not only erroneous but absolutely
untrue. We also want him to fully
understand that his statement is an
untruth which every real soldier
resents. This is not only a reflec-
ton upon the American Army but
also upon the great principles ana
ideals for which we have fought,
and anyone entertaining such mar
row-minded ideas is evidently oP-
posed TO the great reforms which
are uplifting America and enabling
our people to enjoy greater happl-
ness and prosperity.
II is not our purpose, however, to
enter into a discussion of the eV.l
which has always hindered the
progress of civilization. This is UNI
necessary. II is very clear TO
everyone that there is not nor has
never been any argument for
Booze" All must admit it is the
most fatal foe TO human efficiency
known. And we have not only
witnessed the "hellish" results OF
this curse in our own country, but
in Europe as well; and consequent?

Of sunday, taking his subject from

Thursday Night Bible Glasses.
lie said that Sunday was a gilt
and that no gift was OF any use
unless it was used. Rest does not
consist of lounging around and eat
ing but in change of thought or
action. The human organism needs
physical recreation but since man is
not only an animal but soul he
needs more than that. He also needs
spiritual refreshment.
United Chapel
The church should fight for day
or a half day of from work Tor tne
physical refrigeration and for the
devotion of Sunday TO the quicken
ing of the spiritual.
Upper Chapel
The students who attend Upper
Chapel are mighty glad to have
Doctor Raine talk to them. Even
those who have not known him
heretofore are reioiced to see him
back again.
Sunday night he read the second
chapter of Mark and in an informal
way interpreted it. Science proves
things by facts and reasons but re-
ligion is a matter of experience.
Doctor Raine gave his hearers the
benefit of a master souls experience.
He will talk in Upper Chapel the
next four Sunday evenings.
Thursday Lecture
Mrs. John Peck lectured last
Thursday in Upper Chapel on the
Medieval Period.
She spoke of the great length OF
time required TO build the Cathedrals
on account of the delicatness of the
design and careful choice of ma
terial.
The church was the amusement
center for the community and each
community had but one. The com
munity expressed itself in the fine
needlework and sculpture which
adorned the church walls. The
people loved to go there. Every
church or abbey had library, and
people liked to read the books
which were but few.
Universities were as well attend
ed then as today. Poor and rich
went alike. Students would travel
from one university to another
studying languages especially. ~
was not uncommon for students to
pray over their studies. In some
cases, as in Bologna, the school was
ruled altogether by the students. A
Bachelor of Arts had to be a bache-
lor indeed.
