VICTORY FIRST, SAYS PASTOR Sonic Put Money Before Winning War, Declares Dr. Alexander Pittsburgh. lncreasing interest was shown at the daily noonday meeting at the First Presbyterian Church when Dr. Maitland Alexan der spoke on "Shall We Put Any thing Belore Victory?" in part as follows: "What effect has this submarine raid had on you? What are your feelings when you realize- that the submarine has come to our very shores? Passenger steamers, schoon ers and small boats, all are prey for the subnarine. Are you scared? Are you saying, 'How awful.' Are you saying, 'We cannot get troops over.' Well, I am not. You must not. 1 tay if the submarines want to come over here, we will do our best to keep them from going back home again. Then we will send them back as part of our Navy. If there Is one arm of the service that we can trust more than another it is the Navy. "This raid lends 'punch' to our subject. First things tirst, and first of all 'victory.' Some people are ob noxious, selllsh and un-Ajnerican. They put feelings before victory, as the mourner moaning everywhere. They put money before victory, the profiteer gaining wealth unduly At expense of the soldier. They put organization before victory, as the labor agitator against proposed Chi nese labor to work the farms only while the war lasted. They put pleas ure and amusement before victory, those who do not yet realize how serious the contest is. "How can we be victorious? The early and late question. Foch has liu< problems, so has Pershing, so has Haig, and on down the line to mothers, fathers, writers, preachers, bankers, manufacturers and laborers of all classes. The problem of the war for you is not to plan for Foch, nor for Pershing, nor for Haig. nor for Lloyd George, nor for Poincaire, nor for President Wilson, but plan for yourself alone and when you have so done, the problems will be solved for all. "It is the duty of everyone to work and work and work for victory, which God in Heaven demands from the righteous on earth." Dr. Alexander stated that on the day war was declared a member of his family was at the home of Lord Roberts, England's great soldier. When the news came Lord Roberts called his family and servants all into the little chapel for prayer and i-orsposed. the following words for that service: "Almighty Father, I have often sinned against Thee. O, wash me in the precious blood of the Lamb of God. Fill me with Thy Holy Spirit so that I may lead a new life. Su preme to see again these whom T love at home or fit me for Thy pres ence in peace. Strengthen us to quit ourselves like men in our righteous cause. Keep us faithful until death, calm in danger, patient in suffering, merciful as well as brave, true to our country and our colors. If it be Thy will, enable us to win the victory for human liberty, but above all, arant us the better victory over temp tation and sin, over life and death, that we may be conquerors through HJm who loved us and laid down His life for us—Jesus Christ, Out- Saviour. the Captain of the Army of <od.

"President Wilson told me." said Mr. Brady, "that the screens of the United States were the greatest con veyers of public Information to the masses. It took the message of the United States to all the foreign coun tries and told the lesson that could not be reached by language to the people of Russia. In every tank town in Arizona, In every town In North Carolina, you will find the screen. It helped put over the last Liberty Loan, and has done much patriotic work for the government."
