Ry Rev. S. R. Hawkins,
President the Portland Ministerial
Association.
President Wilson has designated Oc
tober 4. the first Sunday in October,
as a day of special prayer, to be ob
served by the Christian people of the
United States as a day of prayer for
the return of peace among the Euro
pean nations.
The American people have many rea
sons for being proud of their presi
dent, and not the least of these rea
sons is the fact that he himself ia
a man of prayer, and a profound "be
liever in the power of prayer.
He also believes in peace among
men and among nations. And for tlila
he ought to be, and Is. apprc-clatod
the more by the people of these United
States.
Hi sympathies for and interest In
humnnity is both national and Inter
national. No matter what the advan
tages that may come and doubtless
will come eventually to the United
States as a result of these warsv Mr.
Wilson profoundly regrets them and
is praying God te hasten the day when
in Hin gracious providence and accord
ing to His infinite wisdom He will say
"It is enough."
IXust Hot Fall.
Mr. Wilson doubtless believes that
his fejings with regard to these wars
are shared by the American ' people,
and hence this call for prayer.
The Portland Ministerial Federation
is taking this means of reminding tho
ministers and Christian people of
Portland of the request of Mr: Wil
son. The Portland ministry and
churches must not fail and they will
not to duly observe this day of prajr
er for the peace of the nations.
Let announcements be made in all
the Bible schools and church services
tomorrow that the flay appointed by
the president for special consideration
of there bleeding and sorely afflicted
nationM, at the Throne of Omnipotence.
is the- following Sunday. It should be
made not only a day of special prayer,
but a special day of prayer. Shall wo
not urge the citizenship of Portland
in general, and the Christian citizen
ship in particular, to fill the churches
to overflowing if possible?
Prayer As Pactor.
But let ua not make a holiday of
it. Mllllonp of men arc fighting unto
death, millions of women and chil
dren are suffering even worse torture.
Kingdoms are being destroyed, hopes
blighted, culuire. morals, philosophy,
religion, everything that is high and
holy is being grieved and Insulted. God
is almighty .and able to save. Hod
hears and answers prayer, when It Is
prayer, and when it is best that It be
answered. Then let us pray. Let
us pray deeply, earnestly, intelligently,
trustingly, expectantly. Let us not
wait till October 4. but prepare our
souls to "come near unto God" on that
day by prulng much In the meantime
And let thcs prayers lc for pt-a e,
lasting peace, honorable peace, univer
sal peace.
