wrong with the world, with the
church and with society,” said
the speaker. ”It is easy to pull
the church, the lodge, and the
world to pieces but there are a
lot of things that are right in
all walks of society. We would
do well to ponder on the things
that are being accomplished in
stead of the things that are
wrong.
“War has been waged through
out all ages but in our demo
cratic world today the struggle
to maintain peace is something
to give us new heart. Never in
any period in the history of the
world have millions of peoples
so struggled to find a way to
world peace. Peace will be found
when the spirit of God rules in
the hearts of men,” said the
speaker.
“The pattern of Jesus Christ
is beginning to take shape and
there is a new concern among
the nations for one another. In
the bonds of world fellowship the
best days lie ahead. There is
something so right about life
that if we play our part with
hope, faith and happiness, the
future will be good.
Warren May moved a vote of
thanks to the ladies for the
splendid banquet, replied to by
Mrs. E. McCarter.
At the conclusion of the pro
gram dancing and cards were
enjoyed.
