THE MASTER OF THE MILITARY
A public ovation will be given Mr. Banks Tuesday evening March 4 at the Central Y. M. C. A. Don't miss hearing him on this occasion. The trophies will be on display.
York Monday.
We had a rough voyage from France to America. The old Atlantic tried himself. He tumbled our ship like a cork. He lashed us unmercifully with his salty spray. He even robbed us of the joy of eating, and can away with the satisfaction of keeping anything we did eat. He hung a curtain of fog across our course and even defied our entrance into harbor. He was a treacherous giant, and how happy we were when the Goddess of Liberty loomed out of the fog at the mouth of the Hudson. How beautiful was the harbor, and how glorious the welcome. The music of the reception band, in plantation melodies, brought tears of joy to our eyes, the devilish jazz made us dance the hornpipe, the patriotic numbers made us yell like mad men, and we thought we were happy when our feet touched American soil. We were happy, but the degree paled for at least myself when the panting-engine stopped at the Central Station at Dayton and my feet kissed again the earth of My Old Home Town.
France with her Bordeaux, Paris, Nancy, Orleans and the rest is beautiful, but none within her are half so beautiful as Dayton, the Old Home Town. France with her friendliest of friends who bade us good-bye at depot and dock, was not half so friendly as those who greeted me at the station at Dayton the Old Home Town. How warm the hearts, how glad the hands, how perfect in love the souls that greeted my soul behind the breasts of clay as I trod the streets of my Old Home Town. None could have finer welcome. None could greet warmer hearts None could clasp gladder hands None can sing more profoundly than I
None can sing more profoundly than
Oh God I thank thee that I live.

"FIGHTING SECRETARY" EDW. B
BANKS TELLS OF BARAVER
OF COLORED YANKERS IN
DRIVES AGAINST THE HUNS
"I just couldn't tell about that battle, it was the most stupendous affair human beings ever saw."
But in that battle, because he seized a service rifle and made two trips over the top and for other exploits in battle, E. T. Banks, Dayton's only colored Y. M. C. A. secretary who went overseas, was called by men in his regiment thereafter, "the fighting secretary."
It was the battle of Argonne forest which continued fiercely for five days, during which time Banks abandoned his Y. M. C. A. hut and fought "tet-a-tet," as he says the French would put it, in the trenches with colored troops. He was not wounded, but he doesn't know why he wasn't.
Banks arrived in the city Sunday evening after serving six months with the 368th infantry, 92nd, or Buffalo division in France, where he was constantly under heavy fire until the artillice was signed.
For Morale Spirit
"The Negro divisions were called Buffalo divisions because the American Indians called the Negroes buffalos. They called them buffalos because they never knew when they were beaten in battle," said Banks, "and they lived up to that name over there." When asked why he left his hut and participated in battle with the soldiers Banks said he did it to keep up the morale among the men.
"We were out of supplies, there was no chocolate or cigarettes to give the soldiers, so I just pitched in with a gun and showed them that I was with them in spirit.
"There is but one object in view when you go over the top, for men are mad then," he said, "and that is to kill. I have forgotten everything else, but I shall never forget the sensation.
"Negro troops fought like mad men," Banks said, speaking of the valor of the colored men, "they were great favorites among the French soldiers and civilians and the Germans respected them when prisoners.
An unusual incident in the experiences of one Negro soldier taken prisoner by Germans was the fact that they permitted him to write a letter to his captain. The French drew no difference between the black heroes and themselves, they were always treated royally in France. Many colored soldiers were cited for bravery, and an entire battalion of the 'Hell Fighters,' the 15th regiment was given the Croix de guerre."
The Hell Fighters paraded in New
THE DAYTON FORUM
DAYTON, OHIO, FRIDAY FEB. 21, 1919
MOTON APPEALS FOR INTER-RACIAL GOODWILL
Upon invitation of President Wilson and Secretary of War Baker, it was my privilege recently to go to France and see and speak to many of our overseas Negro soldiers. In the course of my visits, I reached the front line trenches near Metz, and come to the sector held by the 2nd Division which, as you know, is made up of Negro troops. At a conference with some of the Negro office's of this division, I was told that the Germans, by throwing literature into the lines held by Negro subtle propaganda in an effort to make them disloyal. The following is a sample of the literature distributed: "To the Colored Soldiers of the United States Army: Hello, boys, what are you doing over there? Fighting the Germans? Why? Have they ever done you any harm? Of course some white folks and the lying English and American papers told you that the Germans ought to be wiped out for the sake of humanity and democracy. What is democracy? Personal freedom, all citizens enjoying the same rights before the law. Do you enjoy the same rights as the white people do in America; the land of freedom and democracy, or are you not rather treated over there as second class citizens?
And how about the law? Are lynching and the mast horrible crimes connected therwith a lawful proceeding in a democratic country? Now, all this is entirely different in Germany, where they do like colored people; where they treat them as gentlemen and not as second-class citizens. They enjoy exactly the same privileges as white men and quite a number of colored people have positions in business in Berlin and other German cities. Why then, fight the German? Only for the benefit of the Wall Street robbers and to protect the millions they have loaned the English, French and Italians? You have been made the tools of the egotistic and rapacious rich in England and America and there is nothing in the whole game for you but broken bones, horrible wounds, spoiled health or death. No satisfaction whatever will you get out of this unjust war. You have never seen Germany, so you hate us. Come over and see for your fools if you allow yourselves to selves. Let those do the fighting who make profit out of this war. Don't allow them to use you as cannon fodder. To carry a gun in this service is not an honor but a shame. Throw it away and come over the German lines. You will find friends who will help you along."
When I asked these Negro Officers what effect the distribution of this literature had upon the colored soldiers, one of them laughed and said: 'We gave a double portion of shrapnel and it seemed to fire our boys with a new determination to lick the Hum. We were then about eighteen miles from Metz, and if our Commanding Officer had not ordered us to stop, the boys had said that they were going to eat supper in Metz that night.' That was the reply which our boys made to this propaganda, which shows that the Germans were no more successful in their ecorts to sow seeds of disloyalty among our soldiers in France than they were to stir up discontent among the Negroes in America.
Everywhere in France, I found the Negro soldiers anxious to return home, particularly those who came cause these soldiers are returning to from the South. I mention this betheir home communities with a spirit of loyalty to the South and with the intention of becoming useful law-abiding citizens. On the other hand, I find that ther is considerable apprehension among the Negroes that these returning soldiers, in many instances, may not be received in a spirit of co-operation and racial good will. The anxiety has arisen mainly on account of the increase in lynching and the persistent rumors that the Ku-Klux Klan is being revived, "in order," so the rumor runs, "to keep the Negro soldier in his place." Personally I do not believe that the majority of the white people of the South are in favor of terrorism or any form of mob violence. Editorials in Southern papers and expressions from individuals confirm this belief. It appears to me
An Open Letter
therefore, that now is the time for calm counsel on the part of the leaders of both races to see that the best sentiment of the South prevails.
In connection with the returning Negro soldiers, I hope the white people and black people throughout the south will utilize the same splendid spirit of co-operation and racial good which will be developed in the common efforts of helping to win the war. While the war was on white people and black people co-operated in subscribing to Liberty Loans, in the purchasing of War Savings Stamps, the production and conservation of foods and in other war work act cities. From the various communities the white and black soldiers were sent away with the same hearty Godspeed, and in many instances under the auspices of the same citizen committee. The result of this working together in these war work activities brought the whites and Negroes into a more helpful relationship. It was found that in every community there were intelligent Negroes whose judgment and wisdom could be trusted and who gladly co-operated with the white people. It is the earnest desire of all Negroes that these helpful co-operating relationships shall continue. Therefore, in order to handle wisely steep problems which are arising in connection with the returning Negro soldiers, I hope it will be possible in every community, for committees of white and colored to meet together and discuss with absolute frankness the present situation. I am sure that out of these discussions there will come a better feeling of racial good will and a new desire on the part of all to work together for the development progress of a greater South and a greater Nation of which recently so many of our soldiers, black and white bravely laid down their lives.

Negro Boy Wins 1st Prize
James Johnson, one of the pupils in the eighth grade of Garfield School, was won the first prize in a competitive essay-writing contest, in which all the boys who spent four weeks at least on a farm during their last vacation took part. The majority of the competitors were white.
Johnson's Essay was: My Experience on the Farm, and was written so excellently that besides winning the first prize of $15.00, it won the hearty approval of Superintendent Miller who added to it a personal gift, a book on "Agriculture." This success adds to the laurels of Garfield and most justly to the pride of Miss Flossie Crockett teacher of Johnson's grade. It proves too how very highly capable is Miss Crockett's work, which I regard as an example of the work of all the colored teachers at Garfield.
On the principle of civic justice and law in a democracy, I am absolutely averse to separate schools, separate churches, separate anything of public benefit, and public ownership. Where such obtains that place is not democratic nor Christian, and here it obtains because the citizens affected are timid, fearful, trembling, folk, yet very brave at the "Big Gate." The fact being at present forced upon us, it would be not only ungracious, but blind also, not to commend any one who helps to change our humiliation to exaltation. This is such a case and I most heartily congratulate the prize winner, and his teacher, for accomplishing this feat. Johnson is an orphan boy, living with his sister, Mrs. Mable Kennedy. He hopes to be a scientific farmer. We wish him all success.

A Splendid Achievement
By R. J. Tams
Organization is the key to all modern progress.
Organization and co-operation spoiled success for the Firemen of the city of Dayton when through their loyal, efficient committee, ably supported by some of the most untiring friends. They received the assurance from the City Commission that a wage increase will be allowed on March 1st, 1919.
This increase will benefit firemen, policemen and others. An ideal state is never attained without the obliteration of selfishness.
The status of labor has been advanced in the war, but the extent and permanence of this advance is an absorbing question.
Hours and wages are of equal interest to employer and employee alike. Labor in the future will demand hours which will give leisure, and wages to take advantage of this leisure. Labor desires better homes, better education, time for amusement, time for worship, and the means of supporting all these—labor, in fact wants al that is promised by a true democracy.
An excellent program will be rendered at Zion Baptist Church by the Junior Zionian Club, Thursday evening, Feb. 27.

Feb. 17, 1919
Word has been received from Major John C. Fulton and Capt. Green of Cleveland, Ohio, that they are on their way to view the old Ninth Battalion of Ohio, now the Second Battalion of the 372 Inf., who arrived at Hoboken, New Jersey, on the United States ship Leviathan, February 11, later moved to Camp Upton, Long Island, there awaiting orders to entrain for Ohio. Major J. C. Fulton was in command of this most famous battalion before their oversea trip, when at the most critical moment was relieved of his command and the replacement was of a white officer. But as such did happen this most wonderful commander was never forgotten by his boys. He is well liked by all the men and is known as Dad. The boys are preparing for a happy time when the two officers arrive at their camp. All the boys send their best regards to Lieut. George Ellis and Lieut. A. Jackson, and we will be marching home soon.

ST. MARGARET'S NEWS
Rev. Father J. N. Samuels-Belboder
Vicar
The Great Event at St. Margaret's on Sunday will be the Administration of the Rite of Holy Confirmation by The Right Reverend Theodore Irving Reese, Bishop Condjutor of the Diocese of Southern Ohio. About fourteen candidates will be presented by the Vicar. The class will be one of the largest in the history of St. Margadret's, and the largest in the incumbency of Father Samuels-Belboder. A solemn and soul-uplifting service is arranged as usual, as follows: Processional Hymn 395, "Those Eternal Bowers, Man Has Never Trod." Recital of The CREED, by the candidates and congregation; prayers and solemn petitions, offered by the Vicar; hymn 213, "Holy Spirit Lord of Love"; hymn 340, "In the Hour of Trial, Jesus, Plead for Me"; presentation of candidates and honorfirmation; offertory anthem, "Turn Thy Face From My Sins," sung by Master Edward Parsons; benediction by the bishop; recessional hymn 616, "He Leadeth Me." You are invited.
The Induction Service announced to be held last Sunday was postponed for just reasons. A sermon on morals and example of individuals was preached instead. It brought out questionings from the congregation, many of whom seemed shocked with surprise and searched their own lives to find a part at least of the cause. The vicar held that the young girls and boys are exposed to a moral peril astounding in its reach and power. "And this peril is to be found in the careless lives of parents, in the slack and shameless conduct of the young married men and women, especially in public places, and in the general
atttitude old, young and middle-aged take in things religious, and things decent. Religion is a man's relation to his God, who is the life of the world. If one's relation to God is hazy, indistinct, broken, or openly at variance, one's hold on life is weak, loose, disappointing and discouraging. Lay hold on Life, and the things of life will be held in the grip. No one can have a grip on life whose communion with God is infrequent, or marred with immorality of any kind. To miss life is to go astray. To go astray is to lead others astray. To lead others astray is to plunge the world in hell. Help the young' by your own honest life, by your own honest conversation; by your own great example. Some of the young married women think it a smart thing to parade before friends their indirections. Some boast of their power to fascinate men who are not their husbands. They even go so far as to have a sweetheart, or sweethearts, on the side. What on earth can such a woman teach her daughter or son? What example can she set for her neighbors? What a lie she is to her own self—her best self—and her home? Such people should emigrate to Russia where a man, by the present Bolshevist law. I call you solemnly to remember these little girls and boys about you, your own amongst them. Help them by your life, your words, your prayers. Lay hold on Life. Life is God. In Him are all things. Jesus Christ desires ardently to save the children. Take heed that you offend not one of these little ones. It were better that a mill-stone be hung about your neck and you be cast into the sea, than that you through my cause should lead astray one of these little ones."
The Auxiliary Supper was a tremendous success. Many of the people
Admission 25 Cents
came too late to be served, and all the supper was gone. Those who supped are loud in their praise of the supper and service. Well, the reason is that there are quite a few culinary artists in the church. It is impossible for them to cook a bad dinner, I'm sure. We thank our patrons and friends. We hope to have them soon again.
"Customs relatively right in a low-er age become wrong when detrimental to conditions more advanced," says the great philosopher Herbert Spencer. The only reason a person refuses to change his customs or method of reason for one proved better is, BLIND IGNORANCE, ARROGANCE AND PREJUDICE. Nature's great challenge to the world is CHANGE or DIE. RISE or SINK, GO ON or GO BACK! St. Margaret's moves in thought and heart always forward to the TRUTH. She lives to the level of the height of the Holy Spirit. She changes old cumbrous, mistaken ways for new, easy, and correct ways of life, and thought, and worship. Come with us. We heartily invite you. We need you. You need us. Come.
Services next Sunday. 10 a. m. Sunday school. 11 a. m. Morning prayer and sermon. 4 p. m. Evensong and Confirmation, with Sermon by The Rt. Rev., the Bishop Coadjutor of Southern Ohio. You are cordially invited.
The mission enjoyed splendid services last Sunday and... also a large Sunday school. The members are working hard and praying for the success of the revival.

Huns Get 5,511 Victims in English Towns.
Greatest Number of Killed or Injured Were Women and Children.
London.—In raids on the United Kingdom by the Germans during the war 5,511 persons were killed or injured, of whom 4,750 were civilians. An official summary of the casualties caused by German airships, airplanes and bombardments from the sea shows these casualties among civilians:
Killed, 554 men, 411 women and 295 children.
Injured, 1,508 men, 1,210 women and 772 children.
Three hundred and ten soldiers and sailors were killed and 551 were injured.
There were 51 raids by airships causing the death of 498 civilians and the injury of 1,236 and the killing of 58 soldiers and sailors and the injuring of 121.
In 59 airplane raids 619 civilians were killed and 1,650 were injured. In these raids 238 soldiers and sailors were killed and 400 injured.
In 12 bombardments from the sea 143 civilians were killed and 604 wounded, while 14 soldiers and sailors were killed and 30 injured.
The greatest losses inflicted by Zeppellus were in raids on Norfolk, Suffolk and the home counties of London on October 13, 1915, when 54 civilians and 17 soldiers and sailors were killed, and in West Suffolk and the midland counties on January 31, 1916, when 70 civilians were killed and 112 injured. The raid on Lincolnshire, Essex and Suffolk on March 31 of the same year caused the death of 17 civilians and 31 soldiers and sailors.
The most serious airplane raid was that of Margate, Essex and London on June 13, 1917, when 158 civilians and 4 sailors and soldiers were killed.
The only bombardment from the sea in which there were heavy casualties was that on Hartlepool, Scarborough and Whitby on December 16, 1914, when 127 civilians and 10 soldiers and sailors were killed and 567 civilians and 25 soldiers and sailors were injured.

STOP CARS TO BAG RABBITS
Motormen on Electric Line In Missouri
Pot Bunnies From Front
Vestibule.
St. Louis, Mo.—Motormen on the Clayton Log Cabin line are having lots of fun these nights potting rabbits from the front vestibule of their cars. Besides cutting down butcher bills they are becoming expert revolver shots and, incidentally, are rapidly wiping out the rabbit population along the right of way.
Patrons of the Log Cabin line (who remark that its service is in keeping with its name) tell how the car comes to a jerky standstill, the motorman alms a revolver, there is a loud report and the trolley pilot jumps from the car, dashes down the right of way and comes back with a fine fat bunny.
Three Pairs of Twins Didn't Bring Happiness
Cleveland, O.—Children usually hold the home together, it is said. But three pairs of twins, now aged ten and seven years and three months, respectively, failed to avert a divorce suit filed here by Mrs. Elsie Kuntz, their mother. She complains that the children's father neglected her and the twins and was cruel.
CONCRETE NOSE ON EAGLE BOATS
New Type of War Craft Equipped With Powerful Light Guns.
CARRY CREW OF EIGHTY MEN
Long, Gaunt Weapon of War, of All- Steel Construction, With the Ex- ception of the Concrete Base— Vessel is Compact.
Detroit, Mich.—A long, narrow wedge, with a steel-incased nose of solid concrete, tapered to a kufelkite edge, forming a considerable part of its total length of 204 feet, and declared to be capable of crushing any submarine—such is the Eagle, designed originally to help rid the seas of the menace of the German U-boats. Contrary to popular belief, the Eagle is not a motorboat, but an oil-burning, steam turbine-driven craft with a cruising radius of 5,000 miles. The Eagle is not a thing of beauty; beauty was not contemplated in its construction. It is a long, gaunt weapon of war, of all-steel construction, with the exception of the concrete nose.
Another popular impression that has been shattered is an idea that the Eagle boat is equipped with torpedo tubes. The submarine chaser was not intended to combat the major instrument of German ruthlessness with its own weapons. It was designed to depend rather upon its maneuvering qualities, its powerful light guns and a new American invention for directing its fire at unseen objects.
Has Crew of Eighty Men.
Its crew, including operating and fighting complement, numbers approximately 80 men. To the observer, the first impression of the Eagle boat is one of wonder that a craft so narrow can possess buoyancy sufficient to keep it upright in heavy seas. Despite its length of more than an average city block, the craft has a beam of only 25 feet, and draws when fully equipped less than ten feet of water.
Its seaworthiness has been demonstrated in the official trials, according to reports to the navy department. While it is admitted the Eagle does not make the speed of the average destroyer, it is claimed that it can out-distance most submarines and the razor-like edge of the bow silently but eloquently tells what would have happened had it come in contact with the German undersea pirate.
Vessel Is Compact.
Built with utility as its prime purpose, seemingly not an inch of space is wasted in the fitting of the vessel, and not an ounce of superfluous weight enters its construction. When dropped into the water ready for the installation of its engines, guns, etc., less than 200 tons of material have been riveted together to shape the Eagle boat.
The plates that form the shell of the submarine chasers vary in thickness from one-fourth to three-eighths inch, and not a single forging or rolled beam enters their makeup. Everything is pressed from sheet metal, cold, by means of machinery that cuts every piece to an exact pattern, punches rivet holes and bends the interior part to required shape.
Amidships rises the deckhouse, topped by the pilot-house, with radio quarters, and above all the conning tower, with the crow's nest at the highest point. Except for this superstructure, the deck of the Eagle carries always the "stripped-for-action" appearance.
GERMANS COULDN'T KILL HIM
Yank's Name on Casualty List Eight Times, Now He's Home Safe and Sound.
Fitchburg, Mass.—Sergt. Gordon W. Hardy is one of Uncle Sam's soldiers that the Huns couldn't kill. Eight times his name was on the casualty list, but now he's back home safe and sound. Seven times he was wounded, Twice he was gassed by mustard gas. He spent nine weeks in a German prison camp, from which he made a daring escape. Hardy was one of the first 30,000 American soldiers on the firing line in France and he served with two United States divisions which were practically wiped out. This twenty-three-year-old lad has been complimented by General Pershing for bravery. He declined to try for a commission. "I wanted to be in action all the time and not scratching my desk with spurs," he said.
SEA CAPTAIN GIVEN MEDAL
Capt. William Finch of the White Star Line Honored by King George for Brave Work.
Boston.—Hundreds of marine friends in this country of Capt. William ("Foggy") Finch of the White Star Line, will be interested to learn that he is the recipient of the medal of the British empire, presented by the king for brave work during the war. Captain Finch went down with the liner Arabie when she was torpedoed, but was rescued. In command of the Adriatic and Baltic, he transported thousands of American soldiers overseas.

"I have used DR. MILES' ANTI-PAIN PILLS for years and they have always given me prompt relief. My daughter who has been a sufferer of periodical pains and nervous headaches has never failed to obtain relief from these wonderful little tablets. We both thank you from the bottom of our heart for having enabled us to obtain prompt relief from our sufferings. DR. MILES' ANTI-PAIN PILLS have never failed us and we would not be without them." MRS. WINIFRED JONES, Stockton, Md.
For more than 30 years Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills have been relieving suffering women, men and children from tormenting pain—Headache, Backache, Neuralgia, etc. Ask your druggist for them—keep a box always on hand. They contain no injurious habit forming drug. They give almost INSTANT relief. Cost but a few cents a box.
Last Sunday five persons were added to our communion, and that feeling of fellowship that emphasizes the life of earnest faithful service, was prevalent throughout the day. The Sunday schol was largely attended by both young and old, and the strains of the orchestra as they swelled into melodious music that quickened the step of the aged, filled with joy the hearts of the young, and appealed, as nothing else can, to the very soul of all who epect some day to enjoy the triumphant music made by these who have won the victory, bespeaks the fact that dear old Eaker Street Church is again enjoying that sweet fellowship of LOVE, HOPE and CHARITY.
Our faithful superintendent is leaving no means untried to make the Sunday school just what it ought to be, and she is enjoying the co-operation of her faithful staff of officers and teachers. One dozen little chairs and two tables has been added to the little fellows' outfit, making in all twenty-five chairs. This will accommodate the present class, but at the rate that it has been increasing, we will soon be called upon to furnish more. At the close of the Sunday school session, the announcement was made that Mr. E. T. Banks would reach Dayton on an afternoon train. Many who were present could hardly wait until the hour for the arrival of the train. Many who were in attendance at the morning service, went immediately to the depot and remained there, without any dinner, until his arrival at four P. M. It would be utterly impossible to describe the hearty greeting he received from his many friends, when he stepped from the train a triumphant hero, whose bit for his country and his race was done, and well done. The pastor was proud of the fact that he was accorded the honor of being the first person in Dayton to grasp his band, and welcome him back again to his pursuits of helpful labors among those for whom he has made great sacrifice. He will assume his duties at the church next Sunday, having charge of the Omega class.
All services will be held at the usual hours Sunday, and an interesting program will be carried out throughout the day in observance of FOUNDERS' DAY. Every member should do their duty for the sacred cause of education.

EUCLID AVE. CHURCH
Rejoice and be exceedingly glad for the wonderful progress of the Euclid A. M. E. Church, much is being accomplished both spiritually and temporally with the wonderful leadership of Rev. H. H. Upthegrove, who is endowed with wonderful spiritual power. After delivering a wonderful sermon Sunday morning, using the simple explanation of addition and subtraction, laying before us so plainly the things that were wrong should be subtracted and the things which are good should be added on day by day. How wonderful it is to find the work of God in all things.
The program rendered Sunday night in memorial of Theodore Roosevelt was indeed quite interesting. The address given by Mr. Byron Alexander was as a sword used by knight. We wish to say he is a promising young man and we wish him God's speed in all his good undertakings. Remarks were made by Mr. James Stewart, Rev. Mathies and H. H. Upthegrove. Splendid music was rendered by the choir and a special number by the young people's orchestra.
We wish one and all to please attend the Christian Endeavor beginning at 6:30 p. m., lead by the earnest working president, Miss Flossie Hague.
Miss Lucas, president of the Juvenile W. M. M. Society, with a body of 20 greeted Miss Mildred Alexander at the home of her mother Sunday afternoon. After enjoying a lovely dinner which was prepared by all, we patiently listened to a splendid literary program. Miss Lucas is a splendid president and is loved by all of her society. By saying the revival service had closed doesn't mean that it closed in our hearts, for we are sure that the spirit is still there when souls are
still forced to step on upon the promises of GoGd we are proud that we were blessed with ten anxious souls during our Sunday services.
By an eye of imagination near 300 people were playing the part of a soldier in France Monday night. Even No Man's Land and had the pleasure of handling Bonie, the wonderful souvenir which was found in a shell hole near Chateau Thierre. This imagination was brought to us in the wonderful lecture given by Rev. L. E. Mathies, Sergt. of Med. Det., from Helena, Mont.
We are thankful that God is improving the health of Sister Davis and Payne and trust they will soon be out to worship with us.
Please attend all services Sunday. Sunday school 9:30 a. m. Preaching 11 a. m., 7:30 p. m.
ZION BAPTIST NOTES
The pastor's sermon on last Sunday morning was a very clear and forcible setting forth of Christ's mission on earth; that is, He came to seek and save that which was lost. It was made plain, how His followers should go off the beaten paths and into the dark and hidden places to seek and help the neglected, unfortunate unavowed.
Attention is again called to the request to all Zion members to register. In the coming campaign we shall want to know just who and where you are. A notable thing has been commented upon about one church of late. It is the faithfulness and regularity in attendance of the teen age girls and boys at Sunday school, B. Y. P. U. and church. The writer knows furthermore that they participate fully in the several services and are generally anxious and willing to serve in any needed capacity. Zion, we owe these young folks every help and encouragement. Let us get busy and do our full share by them.
The Sunday school's first "Pleasant Sunday Afternoon" was a big success from every viewpoint. There was a large number present at the opening hour and they kept coming till we had the church full. The speakers and soloists were greatly enjoyed and generously applauded. The singing was brisk and happy. How those folks, young and old, did sing! Evidently out of hearts that were tuned for the occasion. Last, but not least, the silver offering was above expectations. No one will want to miss our next one the third Sunday in March.
We shall be pleased to see you next Sunday at Sunday school at 9:20 a. m., morning service at 10:45, B. Y. P. U. at 6:30 p. m., evening services at 7:45 p. m. Sunday is also communion day. This is a service you should not fail to attend. The Laymen's League meeting last Sunday afternoon was featured by an address by Mayor Schweitzer, in which he emphasized the fact that there is plenty of real work for real men in connection with the church; and the need that the men get together and let their good influence be felt in church, community, and nation.
