President Wilson has designated Sunday, October 4, as a day this nation shall pray for peace in Europe. Every person in the United States is requested by Presideni Wilson to offer prayer for the success of the peace movement. I§ will be the greatest test of the efficacy of prayer ever made in the world. In every church, in every home in the land, people of all des nominations are asked by the President to pray to God to put a stop to the war in Europe, by appealing direct to the ‘‘throne of justicq and merey.”’ The Georgian suggests that someone write a prayer for thn3 day not {0 exceed in length 100 to 150 words, of such beanty an power that it might be adopted by the churches and repeated by everybody at a certain hour on October 4 simultaneously all oved the United States. Who will write that pyarer?! The Georgian asks its readers to start the movement. 1t does not follow that ane must be a grea§ or famous writer to be successful, if only there is put into the prayeg the right idea in simple, forceful and beautiful words. Readers are asked to send their contributions at oneeito The Peace Editor, The (Georgian, Atlanta, Ga., Box 1616. and should get the support of all good eitizens.

The idea is magnificent, whether it can be carried out'or not.” Mrs. W. B. Cumming, President of the Woman's Life Cul ture Club, writes: “May the principles of universal peace fill minds and hearts of all America. May its subtle waves vi brate the invisible wires of menta tion from zone unto zone, with peace divine, to all living creatures.” I. E.
