awakened and prayed the has
tening Of the day.
Rev. McCa1lister deplored the
present apparent sag in the
national morals the prevalent

contrasted this spirit with that

respond to the call to duty. to
lend his aid in putting down dis
order, and going out and taking
iup the challenge Of the Hun IS

are engaging in high crimes
and committing acts in defiance
of the good order of society,
and in acts that render woman
hood and the home insecure, as
no less Hunnish than the Hun

and bravely went out to meet.
Rev. McCallister made a
strong appeal to the patriotism
of his countrymen to emulate
the service performed by the
young men who had responded
to the call of duty in behalf Of
law and order and the safety of
the community and the home,
