For rourugR that we aorely need.
For strength to do the splendid deed.
For youth, who made the aat-rlflco
And, smiling, paid the bitter price
That freedom asks of sturdy men.
Oh Clod, accept our thanks again.
To thee once more today we kneel;
Sad music of the crash of steel
Accompanies our prayers, and yet
Thy merries everywhere are met.
And we are grateful for the youth
That boldly dared to guard tho truth.
Oh Ood, who gave us sight to see
The way to serve, we pray to thee;
We thank thee for all mothers fair
Who gave their sons Into thy care
And bravely hid their grief and pain
That liberty and truth should reign.
We thank thee for each noble heart
That scorned to play the coward part;
We thank thee for the humblest lad
That In these bitter times Is glad
,To toll until war's flags are furled
;To make a kindlier, better world.
For yield of tree and fruit and vine
! Once more our gratitude Is thine;
>But In these days of dangers, we ,
• Now offer prayers of thanks to thee
For all the brave and loyal breasts
• Wherein the love of honor rests.
.Oh Ood. we thank thee for our youth
.That still hold dear the ways of truth;
We thank thee for their courage, and
'Devotion to our native land;
We're thankful that our flag still gleams
The emblem of man's highest dreams.

Church Nifhf at the Presbyterian
Church
wife of a
nter, was
Tuesday,
Interment
the Min-
ces being
Thomp-
old, and
band and
Monday
ription of
Allen.
On next Friday evening, be
ginning at 7 o’clock the church
will be opened to all Presbyte
rians and everyone else interest
ed in this church and its work
Every man and woman, boy and
girl is wanted at this gathering.
This is a new plan the church
has decided upon to solve the
social slid educational problems
that confront the church.
The program will consist, of a
short devotional service at the
opening, followed by a studv
period. Study classes for all
people above the Intermediate
age in the Sunday School will be
organized. The subject for
study for the next eight weeks
will be the great subject of Stew-
ardship in its broadest sense.
When the next eight weeks are
up some other, timely subject
will be selected for study.
The boys and girls of the In
termediate and Junior age are
included in this program. Juu
ior and Intermediate Christian
Endeavor Societies will be organ-
ized for them.
Friday night was selected for
the time of meeting because it
will permit the boys and girls to
come and not have their public
school work interfered with.
After the study period there
will be a social hour. Here we
want to know and understand
each other better. The ladies
of the church will doubtless
“make a hit” with their part on
the program at this junction in
administering to the physical
hunger of the crowd with re
freshraents.
This kind of gathering we plan
to have each Friday night. This
plan if carried out properly af- J
fords an opportunity for the'
church to more adequately fulfill
its mission for its own people
and the whole community.
We want you, if you are a
Presbyterian, or have no other
church home, to feel that you
have a place and a warm welcome
at this gathering. Don't stay
away because of mud, rain or
cold. We believe the meeting
will be worth vOur every effort
to be present.

weeks.
We failed to learn until recent
ly of the arrival three weeks
ago in the home of Mr. and Mrs.
j Bluford Plant, of a thirteen

addition to his family.
A Community=Wide
Policy
of friendly co-operation constitutes one of
the chief aims of this institution.
We believe in this community; we have faith
in the farmer, the merchant, the wage earn:,
er, and are willing to back up our faith with
the fullest measure of co-operation and ser
vice that a bank can offer.
Let’s get acquainted.
