MAYBE THE SOLDIER
DOESN'T GO TO CHURCH
But These Figures viii Prove ilIumi-
mating to the Skeptic-only
4,523,343 Attend.

III every man, woman and child In
the state of Texas, plus the entire
population of New Orleans, La, were
to unite in going to church on one
Sunday the mobilization would still be
less than the attendance at religious
meetings In the Army Y. NJ. C. A.
buildings in the Southern department
from May, 1917, to December 81, 1913.
The total attendance at 400 such
meetings in the "Y" huts was 4. 523.343
according to figures compiled by the
religious work department of the Army
Y. NJ. c. A. at San Antonio, Tex.
At these meetings 74.457 soldiers re-
quested prayers-a number greater
than the population of Oklahoma City.
The number of Christian decisions
made by these soldiers was 69929-
more than the number of people In FL
Paso, Tex. Christian purpose re-
newed by soldiers at such meetings
reached the big total of GG.5S1.
The number of personal Christian
interviews which the ~" secretaries
We're able to have with the men as
they visited the buildings was 31S,246,
or equal to the combined populations
of Dallas, Fort Worth and Houston.
Tex. These secretaries also secured
from the men number of other for
wsrd-step decisions, including the fol-
lowing: To read the Bible, III 1853; to
pray, 34,097 temperance, 1855; anti
profanity, 9,342; personal purity, 49,
500; antlgambling, $685..
Records from November 1, 1917. to
December 81, 1918, show that 1850
Bible classes We're organized with
total enrolment of 1902 men. These
classes held 1895 sessions and had an
attendance of 345, 59S. 1t was not until
May l, 1918, that records were made
of the number of teachers used at
these classes, but from that time to
December 81 there were LAC soldier
teachers and 1883 civilian teachers
engaged in conducting the classes.
Copies OF the Scriptures distributed
to soldiers reached 539,6S3, or one
each for every person In the states of
New Mexico and Arizona. Religious
literature given out from June l, 1915
to December 81 numbered 569.249
pieces.
Visiting sick soldiers was a part of
the duty of religious work secretaries,
and for the period for which records
were kept the number of such visits
made was 996, 1872. almost equal to the
population of Colorado with most of
the people In Kansas City. Mo-. thrown

Measure OF Gratitude For

why seek ye the living among the
dead ?" was asked of the disciples on
a memorable Easter morn some nine
teen hundred years ago and the sound
of the questioner's voice brought JOY
to the hearts Of the disciples,
In thousands of American homes to-
day there is no longer need of seek
ing news of the living in the daily
casualty lists. The strain and worry
OF uncertainty has been removed from
the hearts of thousands of American
parents and in its place has welled
a spring OF gratitude which must seek
expression.
Gratitude not only for the sons re-
turn in good health and with broad
ened outlook, but for the return of the
millions OF other sons who shared the
glorious work OF making the world a
better place in which to live.
Hostilities have ceased over there,
but the call TO arms is sounding over
here. The Victory Liberty Loan. the
thanksgiving loan. the loan that is TO
pay for the great victory and wipe the
slate clean is to be offered the people
of the United States ON April Fl.
Uncle Sam needs this money TO pay
for the vast military preparations nee
essary to defeat the Hun. Our war
preparations were at the high mark
OF production when the Germans gave
up. To pay for the war supplies con
tracted for. to bring the boys home
and to finance the period OF readjust.

INTERPRETATION Of "Jean Christophe. ,

Professor Nathaniel Schmidt. Of Cor
nell University, gave an interesting
Interpretation OF Roman Rolsnd's Jean
Ctristophe" before the Wilmington
Ethical Society yesterday afternoon IN
the du Barry room at the Hotel du Pont.
The lecturer described the thing rs not
only picture Of generation preparing
itself for life and death struggle, but
also an Interpretation of life as purifying
agent Of the race. The turbulent times
in 1914 and the menace TO the arts and
sciences threatened through the dcstruc-
ton of everything physical were dwolt
upon along with the lecturers efforts TO
effect a reconciliation of the French and
German governments after the war had
got we'll under way. Jean Chnstophe
was characterized both ae biography and
autobiography.
