Evin Sunrise and Sunset By Rev. Thomas B. Gregory % Copyright, 1919, by the Press Publishing Co. (The New York Evening World). HOEVER knew the sun to set without rising again? There have been just as many sunris sunsets, with at least one sunrise to the good—for the sun that rose this morning ig still in the heavens. But let us be exact. Let us square our talk with our knowledge. We say the sun “sets,” but we know that it never does anything of the kind. The phenomenon we call “sunset” is in reality sunrise—somewhere else. ‘The God of Day neither rises nor sets, but ever holds its place and— Bvery little while the earth turns round and pute us in the shadow, but @very moment that we are in the shadow Nght. Light and right! They know no are being carried toward the permanent eclipse. History is full of shadows, but through them all the light never ceases © shine. Right sometimes retreats but is never defeated, and presently it goes “over the top” again, and still again, until the forces of wrong are driven from the field. Light and right! tavineible, immortal! ‘The forces of the dark struck ‘They cannot be downed. They are inextinguishable, down the Athenian glory at Bgos- Potamos, but Egos-Potamos made possible the great Alexander, who spread that glory all over the Bastern world. 4 ‘The barbarians destroyed the “grandeur which was Rome,” and all those with narrow horizons swore that the “end of the world” was at hand, when the fact was that a new and grander world was being born. A century and a quarter ago « fool King and his fool Ministers at- tempted to destroy American liberty, and today America, the greatest of the nations, is giving liberty to all the world! ‘The twin monsters Militarism and Bolshevism, one after the other, tried to inaugurate brute foree and anarchy in lieu of reason and law, but today Militaria ts dead and Bolshevism is in the death-rattles.

It's @till pretty dark, and I'm feelin’ my way along, they bein’ no hurry, as unfortunately, Joe, I had no place to go. All at once I see a guy loomin’ up in front of me. They is somethin’ familiar about him, and in another second I know hy the third bird which claimed he was a American contractor and was fillin’ the steward with Red Eye. While I'm watchin’ him, Joe, he takes @ flashlight outa his pocket, faces the water and commences to wave it around. It was one of the biggest I ever seen, because it throwed a glow all around the deck where he was standin.’ He'd hold it still for a minute and then shake it back and forth. I couldn't figure what the idea was for a minute and then it struck me so hard I liked to fell over the rail, Joe, this guy was signalin’ to a submarine! I give one jump along that deck and come down on him like a ton of bricks. He wae a husky, Joe, and gunme quite @ battle, even though his head hit the deck hard enough to have drove in a nail had there been one there, which unfortunately there wasn't. We rolled all over the deck with this guy tryin’ bard to use gun and a coupla times hed sscaped I thought to myself we was sure goin’ * much system in your office over in the deep blue, ‘Winty just aa a lot of deck hands, hearin’ the nolse, come runnin’ up, I got a left hook oa his chin and he resigned.

It was @ English destroyer, Joe, and the dec hands took me and this would-be a sassin up to the brdge of our ship, and I give the captain the dope, passed it along to the destroyer, and in & minute they got a searchlight eweepin’ the water all around us. Joe, that water looked bad enough in the dark, but with that blindin’ Nght on it, it looked worse! They throwed the beams back and forth for @ minute, and then all of a sudden we hear them shoutin’ and runnin’ around on the destroyer, and a lot of guys around me which was crowded to the rail hollers that they have picked up the periscope of a U-boat. Joe, I looked where the captain point- ed, and sure enough right up outa the water quite some distance away Is a black iron post movin’ slowly along. Lil betcha that was the submarine this guy had signaled to, comin’ up to et Us. Anyhow, the destroyer cuts loose with a six-inch shell, and that periscope disappears. Wheth hit it or not, I don’t know, J I know is that we got into South- ampton without no further trouble, They took this other guy aboard the destroyer after searchin’ him and findin’ enough stuff on him to break up @ dull day for a firin’ squad. I was treated like I was George W. Hero, all the way over. The people on the boat couldn't do enough for me and says I had saved their lives and a lotta bunk like that, Jeanne was as proud as a infant with a new rattle, but made out she thought it was nothin’, One of the English om. cers’ wives asked her if she didn't think it was wonderful the way we with our lives, says Jeanne, hi ders and eo amile, 1AM Gong SucH Loner You Are Rian To Buy CONTINUED TOWN! 1 Cro SERVICE WITH OUGHT To BE REWARDED rus that U. 8, Treas and, leavin’ them, could any I ‘Went outalde danger befall us—was not Edouard with us?* Joe, that’s thé)wWay to stand with the wift, hey?
