The following prayer made to the Almighty by Billy Sun day last Sunday in Los Angeles Cal., is so sweet and good, we reprint it from the Journal for the benefit of our readers: “Almighty God. our Heaven ly Father, we pray Thee that the war may continue until the Prussian militarism is swept off the face of the earth, until the snake of autocracy is crushed forever,, until democracy is un shackled, until justice has a fair show, until the virtue of wo men is sure of protection, until little children no longer go hun gry, until the kaiser and his co horts have unpacked their trunks on St. Helena’s barren rocks. ( “And in the meantime give each one of us the fighting spir it that led the crusaders to vic tory. If we do not fight with our hands in the trenches, help us to fight with sacrificing heart at home. “Thou knowest, 0 Lord, we have not entered this bloody war on account of avarice and we do not covet Germany’s land We have drawn the sword to de fend our country against the most infamous, blood thirsty horde of human harpies that ev er disgraced the earth. They respect neither law nor religion nothing is sacred as it stands in their path. “O Lord, bless the president; give him wisdom; bless all the councils of state and war. Keep us a united nation in fact and spirit. Bless the army and na vy. Many of our brave boys al ready sleep somewhere in France, or beneath the sea. Bring victory to our cause, be cause we know it is your cause. We have joined hands and hop es and hearts with our noble al lies that this world may be a safe place in which to live. “Thou knowest, Lord, that the tidal wave of sneering unbe lief that has blighted the faith of millions and denied that Je sus is Thine only begotten son, came from the beer mugs of the pretzel crowd across the sea. This, together with the deluge of blood, is enough to make hell laugh and heaven weep. “Lord, Thou hast never for saken our flag. It waves with out a stain. May it lead every step of the way until the iron cross is sunk fathoms in hell and the world rests once more bathed in the radiance of the cross of Christ. “All this we ask in the name of Jesus Christ, Thy Son, our Sa vior. Amen. Public Sale. I will have a public sale at my residence at Drew, Ga., on the 10th day of November 1917 Come and buy some bargains in a number of articles.

Literature may be oversexed, as a contemporary claims, but the modern output is decidedly undermanned at that —Washington Post. Our year begins on August Ist of each year and ends on July 31st of the next year. Last year we sold 93 Ford Cars. Our estimate was 114 Ford Cars. Our estimate this year is only 96 Ford cars. We never get over 90 per cent of our estimate. We have already sold and delivered 12 Ford cars on new es timate. We would have sold 50 more cars last year could we have gotten them. This year cars are scarcer than ever. The demand for cars is almost twice as great this year as last. You can see where this is leading us to! We may be able to get cars this winter, but we must have the orders for same in advance. Take warning and if you intend to buy a Ford car next summer have it delivered this winter. This is no idle talk. We want to sell them worse than you want to buy them, and we know that if we don’t make our deliveries between now and Spring that we can’t get the cars and will lose tht sales.
