Those are all things to be proud of.

On the other hand, our shipping program has been disappointing. That enterprteo has been a stupendous one almcst beyond our conception. And, perhaps, the very vast-ness of it, is the reason that we do not appreciate 'he work that has been done. "We still have to hold our faith in the shipping program, and look to the second year of war to justify our efforts. So we may tay of the air program.

It is just now our bitterest reflection. The American people appropriated without stint for this phase of the war work $640,000,000. And the results have meagre. Wickedly, humiliatingly so. And here, again, we must hold to our strong faith that another twelve months may see our errors corrected and this program vitalized into flying machines by the thousand.

And there are other disappointments, to be sure. But war was never carried on without them. With a morale that is, we believe, invulnerable, with a will that was never stronger, with a determination born of a knowledge that our cause is just, we enter the second year of this conflict, with surer faith, with clearer eye to the ends we seek to gain. Our people are so closely knit in purpose thct we know of a truth that we possess a unity of courage and of determination greater than we had one year ago.

One year ago today the United States went to war with Germany. A year from today we are likely to be writing it down that we have been at war for two years. And, maybe, three years will pass and we shall be obliged to pen sim-liar words again. Are we sorry, after one year of it, that we took the course we did? Thank God our conscience is clear, and we can write it down that the American nation is surer today that it took the right course than it was one year ago. And we feel sure, if, after the lapse of another year, and if after the lapse xf two years more, we shall still be at war, we shall still be able to declare, with conscience clear, that we are glad we chose the bloody path.

It was perhaps the most inspiring' incident of the affair. When the roll call started, not even the members of the county organization believed that every township, and city would respond, but as the call proceeded, and after the first half dozen townships had answered, a Quiet took possession of the audience that showed the interest as to whether 100 per cent was to be scored was deep. And when every township had answered "Present," some with what sounded like a score of voiles, others with not so many, an outburst of applause was the evidence that every person of the two hundred present-was satisfied that an unexpected showing had been made.

Two thoughts are suggested from this incident. One is that the new county organization has proved its efficiency quickly. From end to end of the county the sales management is in touch with every township and its war board or Liberty Loan salesmen. The more important thought suggested is that the country districts are alive to the situation confronting has gone on, that America has saved her soul. If i costs us uncounted delegates to synod.

If we have made a mistake from the beginning of this nation in our choice of the things that were right, that were just, that were honest in the sight of God and man, if justice, humanity, democracy, are idle and empty phrases then, having made that choice, let us be game enough to go through with it. If we have made a mistake to pin our faith to a God that honors before might, still let us stick to our colors and go down fighting hard. But, we still are strong in the faith, as expressed by one of old, who said: "We know whom we have believed, "and are persuaded that lie is able to keep us."

It all augurs fine results in the campaign that is just starting. $1,000,000 is a large sum of money to raise in St.

Clair county, but it will be done and a little more for good measure. We congratulate Marine City and Fort Gratiot township upon their enterprise in being the first units of the county to ca'l for their honor flags. We trust no other cities or townships of the state will outdo them. And we look for calls for more honor flags front both cities and townships of the county before the first week of the campaign has passed. Are we discouraged by the littleness cf what we have done.

Let us count the debits and credits. We have been good to our Allies at any rate. We have loaned them money like water more than P00 of it. And more is still theirs for the asking. That is a great accomplishment.

And we have made munitions for them. We have shipped them airplanes when wo had few to ship to our own soldiers. We have played the game straight with those to whom we stand shoulder to shoulder in this fight. And we have adopted the life-saving draft law. Under it we have raised an army of upwards of a million, and many of them have already gone over seas to stand alongside our regular fighting forces.
