President’s Message
June, 1946. Dear Friends, Now that F.astertide with all its wonderful message has passed i» is time for reconsecration to our Lord and to our work. Surely there is no better proof of our belief in the love of Christ than that of redoubled effort to clear the evil of the Liquor Traffic from our land. On Easter Day I stood watching a glorious dawn and also looking out over the sleeping city; I could not but think how different Easter Dawn might be if there were no beverage alcohol. So many more people waking with clear brains and happy hearts. We CAN have such an Faster if we are prepared to pay th z price in sacrifice and continuous service. J. R. Lowell said, “No man is born into this world whose work is not born with him; there is always work, and tools, to work withal for those who will,” and Hooker Washington said, “Nothing that is worth having ever comes to one except as the result of hard work.” The battle is the Lord’s, and strength in abundance will he the portion of those who “come to the help of the Lord ’
With very cordial greetings from C. E. KIRK. Dominion President
