the firing line today will do more for
mothers and the Lord than we will.
There will be many a soldier's prayer
sent up from the firing line Sunday.
More than we will ever know about,
and it will be from their hearts too.
My mother has passed on. but in
World War No. 1 she sure did pray
for me and I think that is tha main
reason I am here today. There were
plMity of times I said, “I wonder if
mother is praying today,” and your
boy is thinking the same thing today.
Just remember that God ia the same
merciful God today as he was in the
other war. But are we all the same
praying kind of mother in this war

I think the same about this one. The
