But why did the President .make that request 7 Because he knew the nation's need, and he knew the nation's peril, and 1. 1 E the natiot s c o knew c the soar he strength, and lie knew that people are genuinely patriotic, in the degree to which- they are genuinely Chris- tian. Shall we determine, then; that this meeting be but a i continuation of those held in the churches a few hours ago 7 We came away from those services with confident and ex- alted souls ; with a new sense of the presence of God. I trust we Have come here with the spirit of devotion making our lives mellow and frag- rant. With that condition as background, as a sort of supporting environment, the message of this hour is offered. In order to acquiesce with the re- quest of the President, and in order to be true to our own clamoring ire tuition, there •is one thing we must do Today ; we must keep God in the ascendant in all our observance of the day. We love our native land but it must not have our first thought today. We love and honor the veterans of the Civil war, under whose auspices we gather here ; as a nation we pay homage at the shrin- es of remembered heroism, but even these must not have our first thought today. Not even the gallant soldiers on the battle fronts, to whom we -owe ten thousand times more than we can ever repay, nor our own brave lads gone forth to battle; they are our pride, our trope, the very flower of our manhood, but ev- en they must not have our first thought today. First, today, is the nation's God, Here is a united peo- ple, quiet, reflective, sobered, ready, as they have not been in two genera- tions to take counsel of the chasten- ed heart. First, today, God ; let us have it so. We cannot make it oth- erwise. We would nob, if we could, This is the 'lust Decoration Day in two generations when we recall the past only by an effort of will. Seeing it through' is inev- itable, from the very natute of the issue. We have been told that this is a war against iniquity, against anti -Christ, against the worst form of organized devilshness which in throe thousand years has stalked through the earth. That is true., Because it is true, 'this also is true, that a mere semblance of Christian- ity will not, cannot, win the war. Only the unwearying, undefeatable spirit of the invincible Christ of Righteousness can win. But that cannot lose. That, aflame in the souls of hie_ followers, will compel them to 'Carry. On' and 'Carry On,' until victory is achieved. America is fighting God's fight. Today's traitor is ho who .domes God Ilis place in His world. So 1 speak to you in terms made compelling by the urgency of the hour. We must see through to the end, the groat enterprise to which America has given her heart, and to winch she is giving the full strength of her arm. The spirit of the veterans of the sixties would shame us should we wish to lay clown our arms when our work is still unfinished. There is only one way out of the crisis which today confronts the World, and that is to terribly defeat the Hun, _ until we shall have put, the fear of God again into bis benighted, soul. We shall not stop, so help us God, until that Purpose is accomplished, 'Carty On' for the liberties of a world are at stake ; the fate of democracy is in the balance ; the sacredness of treaty rights is in issue ; the very, life of weals nations is challenged. But it is well to remember that we are only at the beginning. We have a long way to go before we reach the end of the terrible journey. The cost is not provided yet. Tho real test has not Bothe yet.

The above nitres are based on an increase of one lamb Per ewe. Where two lambs were raised practically the same results in weight may be expected at the end of rho year. In such a case the first three items in the cost would be split between the two thus reducing the cost to $5.09 per hundredweight and increasing• the profit to $12.69 per hundred- weight. The foregoing estimates are ex- clusive of overhead, charges or de- preciation but these items may well be overlooked as they are almost negligible in sheep raising owing to the fact that so little is required in buildings or equipment. Moreover the estimates arc conservative and though they show a return of at least 38.8 percent. on the •invest- ment of $30.00 per ewe, the same 1nay be looked for under eastern con- ditions while under western condi- tions even greater divideads may be realized. 0 McKillop Township, The picnic held in Leeutings grove was a well attended and pleasant af- fair all around.

We cannot accomplish much in the treatment of dyspepsia, however much we may temporarily relieve its symptoms, so long as the blood re- mains impure. It is a fact not well enough known by people generally that when the stomach, liver and other digestive organs are supplied with impure blood the digestive process is impaired, s0aettte 001)a5 faintness and loss of app sometimes a deranged state of the intestines, and in general all the symptoms of dyspepsia.
