WILSON PRAISES
M.E. CAMPAIGN
President Says the Methodist
Missionary Program Should
be Observed in America
"It would be a misfortune of last
ing consequence if the missionarj
program for the world should be in
terrupted." says President Wilson In
answer to a question as to whether
it should be maintained not only In
spite of the war, bpt because of it.
Here follows the President's reply:
"I entirely agree with you in re
gard to the missionary work. I think
it would be a real misfortune, a mis
fortune of lasting consequence, if the
missionary program for the world
should be interupted. There are
many calls for money, of course,
and 1* can quite understand that it
may bec'ome more difficult than ever
to obtain money for missionary en
terprises—but that the work under-,
taken should be continued and con
tinued as far as possible—at its full
force, seems to me of capital neces
sity and 1. for one. hope that there,
may be no slackening or recession
of any sort.
"1 wish that I had time to write
you as fully as this great subject
demands, but 1 have put my whole
thought into these few sentences and
I hope you will feel at liberty to use
this expression of opinion in any way
you think best.
"Cordially and sincerely yours,
"(Signed), Woodrow Wilson."

several weeks vacation. He will
spend the forepart of his vacation
by speaking in several of the mili
tary training camps where he has
already given valuable assistance to
the Y. M. C. A. secretaries.
During the absence of the pastor
the pulpit will be supplied by the
assistant pastor.
At the morning service on Julv
list, the Rev. 11. H. Baldwin wiil
Pleach from the theme— "I Am The

With Choir and Organist
George Sutton, baritone. likely willi
be heard for the last time in Pine
Street Presbyterian Church to-mor
row. He leaves for army service next
week. For a number of years this
capable singer has been the baritone
of the splendid quartet choir of Pine
Street Church. Besides his work in
the choir he has been heard in many
city musical events, singing frequent
ly at the Y. M. C. A. and in nearly
every pretentious musical effort thg
city has put forth. His work at ail
times has been musicianly. Perhaps
no other singer will be so genuinely
missed. The army draft has taken
many soloists from church choirs.
Melvin R. Smith, who had been at
Atlantic City playing the organ at
one of the more prominent of movie
theaters, has returned to Harrisburg.
Before leaving the city for the shore
position he was organist at the

al." better known as "Lest We For
get." Berwald's "Beneath the Cross
of Jesus" better known by its hymnal
appellation, "St. Christophere." will
be sungiat Market Square Presbyter
rian Church. The Syracuse man's
setting is more pretentious, perhaps,
but never can take the place of the
dignified and vyorshlpful hymn tune.
Shelley's "Glorious Things of Thee
Are Spoken," will be sung at Pine
Street Presbyterian Church in the
morning. The evening anthem will
be "Keep Me, Lord, the Shadows
Falling."
Wartime hymns are sung almost
every Sunday in Harrisburg church
es during these stirring times. Among
these is Warren's strong setting of
"Fi*>m War's Alarms and Deadly
Pestilence," better known as "God of
Our Fathers." In Presbyterian
Uhurehes, especially, is this big an-
Dr. Hawes to Leave For
Vacation in Southern Camp
Dr. George E. Hawes will preach

Sabbath before leaving for his sum- j
mer vacation. It is his expectation
now that he will leave for Augusta i
next week, and preach in the First |
Presbyterian Church of that city,
July 2S. After visiting Augusta, and
Camp Hancock, he is planning to:
visit a number of the camps in South I
Carolina and Georgia where Market'

'Our King' will serve as\ a corrective
to our thinking during these days

war-time hymns, which have met
with acceptance will be used at this
service. The theme for study in the
adult department of the Sunday
school at 9.45 will be 'Prayer.' At
the evening service the pastor will
give reasons for our assurance and
confidence in the infallibility of the
Gospel and results from Its. preach

offering during the day will be de_-

Chambersburg last Sunday to sing
for the big First United Brethren
congregation and also to participate
in a Bastile Day celebration on the
lawn of the historic Falling Spring
Presbyterian Church. The singing of
the Harrisburg organization, under
the direction of George W. Sweigert,
thrilled the Chambersburgers. Its
program in the church consisted of
a number of religious and patriotic
selections by the chorus, one of
which, "When the Boys Come

pleasing and patriotic, and also solos
