LUTHERAN LEAGUE SOCIAL
Camp Hill, Pa., May 12. The
Luther League of the Trinity Luther
an Church, held a social at the home i
of Mrs. Elizabeth Walsh, the presi
dent, at Eberly's Mills. Thursday
evening. Thirty-flvo members at- 1
tended tho affair.
Fourth, We ask all our authorities,
both national and State, to care
fully consider and to act with dis
patch and courage In the conserva
tion of all our food products. Our
people must be protected against the
conditions created by the war. With
promptness should the gamblers in
the ssentlal and necessary food prod
ucts be driven from their nefarious
activities. Especially do we urgo
that the grain of the nation be pro
tected from ravages of the traffic in
ardent spirits by a complete and
drastic prohibition of the manufac
ture and sale of liquor for beverage
purposes during the war.
Fifth, We most earnestly, as min
isters of the gospel, ask of all so
cieties or associations encouraging
patriotism, the recognition of the
religious motive and religion. Tt is
impossible to read the value of re
ligion out' of our national history.'
"There is a God." said Patrick Hen
ry." There is a higher law," said
William H. Seward. "I promised
God," said Abraham Lincoln. In en
couraging patriotism, in cheering the
boys who shall go to the front, in
sustaining their parents who give
them to their country, the religious
motive and faith is most potential.
Our people need the benefits of pray
er and religious devotion in these
perilous times. We urge upon our
people the necessity of prayer, pray
er in our public gatherings, prayer
in our homes. God Is a very pres
ent help in times of need.
