Strouse Addressed the Gathering on Sunday. < 2 rally Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock was enjoyed by a _goodly number . The musical num- bers consisted of a solo By Miss Ban. field and one by Hugh Kinder. .| terent ways that it may be used in phasize today, first, there is in these days a widespread _wpostaty; the greatest tragedy is not the war, but apostacy, which means a forsaking of God. There is original, national, and personal apostacy. We are all guilty of the first, not one is. free from it. France was once gullty of Nationai Apostacy; she did her best to banish the thought of God from France, not 50 now, for today. France is serious in her thought. Germany is said to be now in the, process of eliminating God from her gational life. Then there are those wWho sre guilty of personal apostacy; Judas was-and 50 was Demés,’ and many today are shutting God out of théir lives. Many are making the discovery that a li without God is a vacant i greatest’ discoverer, Jesus Christ The second thing T want to speak of is that the hope for those who are living the square life is that there will be a day of balancing up accounts and every one will ‘get his just re- wards. ‘We read in the word about God day, but this is not God's day, this is man's day: he is 'having his vwn way and he is not having very good suc- cess. God's day is coming and I am inclined to think it may be soon; be that as it may, God will have His day and then_things will be made right. Next Sunday Rev. Vernon Cooke, ot Willimantic, will' speak. - Ssmewhere in Franee. ‘Word has been received from "Wil- liam Young, a member of the local Y. M. C. A, who is now in France.

Second—Bécause the consent to be- come members of the food adminiétra- tion by a large majority of the peaple is & clear evidence at Washington that the people ares backing up the govern- Refusil to sign the pledge card may e for reasons in no way hostile to the Purpowes of the administration, ‘but it Will be impossible to explain ail these reasons. “The government must be gulded by the fact that an individual will or will not sign. The signature commits the signer to do the best pos- sible as his individual circumstances will permit and Is not an onerous bur- den, and the consent of a large ma- Jerity of the people of the country will perhaps accomplish voluntarily what foreign nations are compelled to do by Every signer of the pledge card re celves » home card with instructions which foods. to save and illuminated window card cf membership Jn the U. 8. food administration.

Such a.contest as this between two states so far. separated s unusual and therefore an interesting event and can lead only. to more friendly rela- tions than would ordinarily exist be- tween widely separated communities.
