Rev J J Snavcly. pastor of the
church then introduced AIIhur Gleason
after an introduction in which he said
that the. Daughters of the American
Revolution dreamed of emulating the
deeds of the past, and after he
said a few words about Mr. Gleason.

Mr. Gleason said in part in a stirring
speech that the time had gone by for“
camouflage about this war. He said
that he was going to speak plainly,
and went on to tell that Europe was
in ruins and these ruins were made by
the Germans. “They have made their
fight and it is our turn now. it we had
not entered this war there would have
been” a negotiated peacethlssummer’.
but We will win now." ‘

During the course of his talk Mr.
Gleason said that it is the duty of this
country to help France. in the pres-
ent Ivar she has 1,300.0000 dead and
an equal number crippled, and the
United States for the aid that France
has rendered her in the past should
and will do all she can to aid France
in her hour or need.

One of the greatest factors for keep-
ing up the splendid morale of our
troops is the Y. M. C. A. They have
sent out man after man to our first
American army and these men have
clearly shown and stated what kind of
a race our men were going up against
and whom they had to light and light
to a finish. Not one man mini 50 01’

stated knew what they were fighting
for but when they learned' by experi-
enge and by the explanations of the

ties. and German propaganda it gave
our soldiers a clear reason for fight-
ing.

. How to combat this propaganda Mr.
Gleason said-was to get into step with
England about whom there is a great
misunderstanding in? this” country.
England needs our sympathy just as
uch as Belgium or France or any of
the other countries who have been
ravished by the Germans. The Wil—
sou policy has become the policy of
in spite ofgthe almost uni-

however. there are a few‘meu such as

label went over IIlIicu was a mistake
They were asking us to back up their
war aims. America is the only one
who hasn't signed because their aims
are the same as Wilson's war aims.
and it we fail England now pessimist:
will win out there.

The poisons] side of the war was
then touched upon by Mr. Gleason He
said that as we all know Europe has
changed in the last two years. There
have been great radical changes. The
Germans have devastated large areas
and look peasants and killed them. He

told of one group 01 15 old men who ,

were taken out in lots‘ of five each and
shot down by the Germans.

Fire doesn‘t burn stone and so when
Germans have tried to burn Some of
the natural beauty spots and found
that alone resisted the fire they went
to work and leveled it with eprOaives
and hammers. They do not want to
leave one thing in France to show her
beauty.

The German diaries were spoken of
as having written records at these
atrocities. One diary said .Mr. Blea~
son read was written by a German s’ol-
dicr and in it in a boasting manner
ware Written the atrocities that he had
committed. There are over a‘thousnnd
of these diaries that have. been taken
from prisoners. wounded men and the
dead in which such atrocities as are
unprintable are recorded and these
were done under order of the German
military machine and were so recorded
as having been ordered by the officers.

The Y. M. C. A. has interpreted the
Allies to each other and instead of
criticism or friction between them
they march in sympathy together.

At the close of his “ilk Mr. Gleason
said that he had once spent about four
hours talking with Lloyd George and
that Mr. George wanted to know I:
great deal about this country reports!-
ly the middle west. He follows our
opinion closely. Mr. Gleason said. and
he desires from America the same
sympathy that England gave it at the
time of the Civil War. He hopes that
every element will 'work together in
this country. England already has an
industrial democracy.

In closing Mr. Gleason said that we
must learn England’s aims and that
We must help with our sympathy. 1

He was heartily applauded for along
time after he had finished.

A silver offering was lllf'l'l taken up
for War Relief work.
