With Members of the Newspaper
Bible Class
By REV. E. B. ALLEN, D. D.
Pilgrim Congregational Church
Oak Park, Ill.

We think prayer for others is q
Samuel regarded it as a
duty. Every land has this beautiful
prayer of child for the boy who
did not know the true God!
Dear Father, there's the other
boy tonight,
Who's praying to god that's
made of wood,
lie asks 1t to take care of him
till light,
And love him-but it won't do
any good. .aaE
He is so far | cannot make him
hear;
I'd call to him and tell him, if
could,
That you'll take care of him,
that you are near,
And love him--for his god is
made of wood.
know he'd ask YOU if he only
knew,
know he'd love to know YOU
if he could.
Dear God. take care of him, and
love him too
The other boy, whose god is
made of wood"
The church has not YET begun to
realize its power through prayer
Prayer for others is commanded in
the Bible. II is magniiied by the eX-
ample of Jesus. You remember
that he told Peter at the last supper:
81 have prayed for thee" Did you
ever stop to think that he also
prayed for you? Read the 18th
Chapter of John and your heart will
be made tender as you realize His
longing for you.

with the economic aspect of the peace
terms.
II is pointed out that Germany is no
longer an agrarian state and cannot feed
moro than 10000 900 people.

The economic terms of the treaty
with their restrictions of trade and
other factors mean. the note says. that
many millions of people in Germany
will perish. all tho moro quickly. as the
nation health is already broken by
the Blockade.
The note indicates in detail how the

Another note Of considerable length
deals with all the proposed territorial
changes. The note does not deny that
the principle of self determination can
be asserted for several of the changes,
such as concerns Poland and Schlcswig,
but does not conccdc that the territories
populated by Germans ''can be bartcrcd
like pawns as security for tho financial
or economic demands of Germany's
enemies" In this connection the note
protests strongly regarding the Saar
valley and declares it is vain to object
that tho proposed occupation will be
