OPEN SKIT. 11
August 1914—August 1917
Three long year.! of woe and sorrow such a* the
world never knew, three years of a desperate death
grapple between the forces of hell unloosed on earth
through Germany, and the fore's of Divine Right fight
ing lor God and humanity.
As sure as Almighty pod lives and rules, right
£hall conquer might, good shall overcame evil, though
the road to victory may be long and bloody.
# If ever on earth God spoke to men and called them
into His service. He has called this nation to its mighty
task^and everywhere fathers ’ and mothers should
realize that God is hono ring their sons as He calls them
• ; . b
into the noblest, the most heroic, the sublimest and the
holiest w'ork to vyhich men ever dedicated their lives.
* •
* *
The very angels of Heavhn might well envy the
men who. as Soldiers of. Civilization, follow the Redeem
er’s example and offer their lives that others may be
saved. And from their mighty sacrifice and suffering
’shall be born a new earth and a New Heaven of endur

auditorium Tuesday evening, and it
was unanimously decided to qualify

ploy an agricultural teacher. In
less than five minutes $171.00 of the
necessary :21$ 66 were pledged,
and a number of persons on whom
the - meeting counts for large con
tributions, were absent. So there
is no doubt th&i Hendersonville will ' .
qualify as one of the group of
schools to employ an agricultural
teacher
