The letter follows;
' Prayer is always a necessity, but
It ie especially necessary in a time
of pestilence and warfare such, as
reigns at this time. lam sure that
oil of us realize this fact, but lest
some one in the stress of circum
stances neglect this most sacred ob
ligation, may I venture to suggest
tnat all of us be especially fervent
and zealous in the winner at this
tjjne. Surely, if all cry unto God for
mercy He will heai out prayers, and

At the regular hour ol' service, then,
will you not take your prayerboolt

own home, remembering that at that
moment prayers are being offered on
your behalf before the altar of God.
"O Almighty God, the Lord of life
and death, of sickness and health,
regard, we humbly beseech Thee, the
prayers of-Thy people as they call
upon Thee in this time of distress.
Mercifully forgive us our sins, and
remove from us the pestilence
wherewith we are afflicted. Go with
those who minister to the souls and

the sick by them, arid go Thou with
them to the dying. We ask it in the

Army Medical Officers Will
ing to Treat Patients
at Homes
With the influenza epidemic slow
ly abating; and the situation well in
hand at the Emergency Hospital, the
army physicians located there have
offered their services to treat pa
tients at their homes in case of need
or in eases where the local physi
cians have found themselves too
busy to properly attend them. Be
cause of the large number of pa
tients. the local physicians have bee*i
compelled In many cases to refuse to
take new cases, or In some instances
have given the patients a visit or two
and then were compelled to give
their attention to more serious eases.
In all such instances the army phy
sicians will be glad to take up the
cases upon being notified either by
the physicians or the patients. The
army physicians can be reached by
Bell phone 255.,
The Emergency Hospital is now
discharging cured patients In satis
factory numbers, and less than half
of its cots are now occupied. Most
of the new cases brought to the hos
pital are cases in which patients]
though sick for days or weeks have .
not had the care of physicians.
I Health Officer Butler reports that
while physicians have reported 67
new cases last evening, most of them
were old cases included in the police
census but thus far without treat
[ment. If the epidemic is to be wiped
out it is imperative that those strick
jen with the disease have medical at
tention, and any untreated cases
[should be brought to the attention of
jthe authorities immediately.

than half.
Most banks over the country wilt
remain open late to-night to receive
last minute subscriptions but there
is no probability of the the com
plete amount of the loan being
known until late next wek. This
very fact has caused officials to im
press upon the people that they must
not hold back subscriptions In the
belief that the loan will bo over
subscribed. Every dollar is needed
to put the loan over the top, they
declare.

YANKEE TANKS
LEAD ASSAULT
IN HOT FIGHTS
U. S. Engineers Place Bridges j
Over Sellc River in Face
of Gunfire
By .-tssocialcd Press
With tlic Allied Armies East of
Cambral, Oct. 19.—Tanks manned by
Americans trained in England led
the assault against the German
forces entrenched the eastern side
of the Selle river on Thursday. They
were faced by German marine di
visions which put up a hard fight.
According to latest reports the Al
lies still are gnintng ground against
the desperate resistance of the enemy.
At one point the Germans delivered
j a counterattack and momentarily
; gained ground, but the tanks passed
I over and beyond the high ground
; where the Germans were making
I their stand and quickly drovo the
| enemy out of his trenches.
American engineers, working un
! der heavy machine gun fire, placed
| bridges across the river.and then the
I American and British infantry swept
I across. The tanks helped to keep
down the enemy fire until the en
gineers had finished their work and
then went over with the infantry.

scene of constant patrol lighting,

ploding when a certain temperature
is reached.
During the advance yesterday the
i American troops captured 20,001)
I gallons of Gorman gasoline.
