E. V. Bato There 3?as a large congregation pres ent. the large and handsome audi torium of the church being filled. Mi Babb also conducted the altar service It had been announced that th pastor would preach again a sermor or an address as "he called it. whicl lie delivered to his own congregatio: a short time aao at the morning serv ^ ice. It was an appeal to patriotism rand a call to sacrifice that the natioi may accomplish the main bu sines t'aat now engages it. namely win th war, or as Mr. Babb said, lick th Germans. The cc gregation has placed in i prominent place .on one side of th auditorium a large flag of the coun try. America and other patriot! hymns were sung, and Mr. Babb of fered a fervent, and patriotic praye for the sufferirfc peoples now en # /' gaged in the war. and for our ow; soldiers who are there and who ar in the camps of the country maklnj ready to go to the front. Mrs. Bab' j> - sang very sweetly. "Lest we forget,' He read the second Psalm whicl he said was a classic On foreign mis slons. Mr. Babb said that he was pleases to have lived in Newberry and to hav x associated with the wood people' o this community for the past coupl years. All of us should feet proui of the good part that the communtt: had done, and the prompt and libera ^ and willing response that the com V znunit?.had given to all the calls tha r had S^it made on it by the Severn raent in these times of peril and call for sacrifice.
