Rev. Il. G. Fulton Gives an Iiloqueni

Address to the Island Battery on the Moral .Equipment oi the Soldier

A church parade of the Island

Heavy Battery was held yesterday morning at the First Methodist Church under ideal conditions. The men marched with the Fourth Regi- ment Band to the church, where they occupied the centre seats. Several patriotic selections, with bell accom- paniment were given by Prof. Thomp- son and Miss Nlcoii rendered the solo "Jesus, Lover of my Soul," with fine feeling and expression.

Taking as his text Samuel I, 17,

40th verse "And he chose him five smooth stones," Rev Mr. Fulton gave an inspiring address on the equipment of the soldier, dividing his sermon into five heads, representing the five slaves.

"It is not necessary that I should

describe the scene which the text de- picts." said the preacher, "but only to say tht in the trying times that lie before us these round smooth stones which had been burnished by the course of the waters may have some lessons for us in this present day. These little water brooks ran north and south and on every side of the army ol' Israel. For 40 days this giant had walked up and down in front of his army and demanded that tlielsra- elites should send over their champion to meet him but no man had answer- ed the challenge.

For some reason Israel could not

find a man who would face this giant of the Philistine army, and It must have been with great humiliation that these Israelites, who had great and glorious traditions, and who had had many triumphs in their national his- tory, found they had no man who was willing to do battle with this enemy. But there was a shepherd lad, a young fellow from the hills, who was not dis- mayed at their giant adversary. He had asked the reason for Israel being dewnhearted. and when informed ho had asked if there was not a man who wan prepared to accept the chal- lenge. The reply was that no man had offered, then, David said that he would go and his brothers tried to per- suade hlm to go back home to tend the few sheep he herded on the moun- tain side. The claims of home were urged by his brothers, but David would not listen to them. I-le recog- nised that the honour of hl.s country, the honour of his nation, the honou of his God was at stake. He recognized that it was not essentially the prepar- ation but the quality oi’ the man who was to champion their cause that counted. True manhood must be the inherent quality if success is to be at- tained.

"I want to speak to you of the

equipment of the man. The educa- tional training that a man receives is essential to a certain degree, but un- less he possess other qualities and unless the equipment of the man is complete, our training shall fail, our cause will perish; in the hour of test- ing we shall sink, and failure and the stigma shall be ours. After ali, whilst education might do much t`or a man. unless he had manhood to build upon. there was small hope of success. These months of preparation had a Brest deal to do with their ultimate success; to add power to their arms when the day of battle came. Unless they had manhood in the mon they sought to train there was small hope ol’ success in the trying hour. There must be manhood, courge and pnwor and fortitude in the man before he could be relied on. Those were God‘s gifts. Some of them had read the ac- count In the newspapers of the Rus- sian peasant who was seized by the Austrians, who demanded of him that he should become their guide to the camp of the Russian enemy. He asrooii that he would lead them through a pass in the mountains to the DIBCD 1° which they were going. The man was put at the head of the army. A ter- rible siorm came on. but with a sense which seemed to be inspired. the man led them on and on through the moun- tain fa-sthoiisbil. Thou suddenly the Austrians found themselves in the midst of their Russian foes. Tho peasant had led them into the ene- my's lines. And then the Russian suns boomed out their mossaso Of death. it is true that tho Russlllll peasant died. shot Instantly by the Austrians. but for generations to come the name of that Russian pon- sant would go down to posterity all one of the natIon's heroes and mar- tyrs. They would toll ef his faith- fulness to the last. Only a poor DSB- ssht, untrained. iileterato, uncouth. yet with the greatest qualities 01' manhood which placed him among the Immortals.

nsvhi went forth with c suns and

with five small stones from the brook- Ths nrst stone we mal' 0°" 01° “°°““ of honesty or candour. Here is an ob- scure sheplier of the hills. a man of whom eviden little is known. Will’ comes to Bail, Ind Baul tho Kim! i-S Prepared to give unto him his arm- our, to seudliim forth to do bltlio with the giant. David finds himself in an uncomfortable position. lie tries

the armour on and rejects it; he tries the sword and rejects it. 1-le dis- cards them all and tells Saul, “I ani not prepared to undergo battle with such 'weapons as these", nd we find him laying aside with candour i-uid honesty the arms of Saul and prepar- ing to go forth with his own weapons to do battle with the giant Philistine. I assert that if men would only use this stone of honesty and candour it would save them from many serious situations.

There are new conditions that sur-

round n young nuui in a nc\v sphere when he first enters. He is utterly ignorant of the conditions that surround him. Suddenly lic finds that his nianlint is is at stake-that his reputation is at stake. Ile lnds that if he lakes part in some of his com- panions’ pleasures that he is going lo lose his manhood, his strength of char- acter. I would ask you in such cir- culnstnnccs docs it not require the gift of the God of I-Icaven to turn and say to his friends. "I cannot stay here, I cannot indulge in these things, 1 can- not participate iu these so-called pleasures. It means the loss of my character, the loss of my manhood." Does it not bring out all ono‘s mall- hood to say, “No, thcso things must not aiul will not appeal to ilie ” In their desire to cultivate friends ami develop sociability along some lines men filnl it casy to spend too much money.

This is one of tho things that weak-

on a man. In his dosirc to travel with those whom he has chosen as his companions he feels the need of more money. Oftentinies it will involve him in debt. He will do thillRS WhiCh will afterwards dcmoraiise him. Oh. for a man who can turn to those friends and say "I cannot afford to ilidulgc in these things, I sm not go- ing to have anything to do with them." A man who can hold hinisclf up above tlicsc demoralizing iufllucncc and who has in his sling this smooth stone of honesty and candour.

I find that this young men equip-

pod himself with the stone of deter- mination. David must have been ti most marvellous man, \vhen you re- member ‘hat he was lnughod at by his own brethren-laughed at by his own relatives. I think they said, It is far better for you to E0 back 10 the sheep. You are not a man of war." They piled ridicule on llilll. They laughed at him. In spite of the laughter, sarcasm, David only saw this msn Goliath. who was heaping ridicule upon his own race, and ills only desire was to redeem his nation from disgrace and defeat at the hands of the Philistines. This is one of the strongest qualities ii. man can possess. Sarcasm-we get it from the Greek word Sarks, an implement which cuts the hoof. It is an instrument which cuts. Sarcasm cuts. and oh how deep a mark it makes upon us. Alld for this reason some of us fail and lolio our powers of determination. We are tossed hither and thither as the surf oi` the sea, and become uiislablo and lose our determination. We sllelik Qi' the bulldog courage of the British. l\o one thinks that it is an unreasonable courage. When we speak of this, wc moan tenacity of purpose, somethin! which eventually will bring l\0I\0\ll` and glory to thc British Empire.

You ronionibcr the story of Nelson

when lic was only it captain of it man- of-war. If it had not been for thc suc- cess which attended the bottle of the Nile Nelson would have lost his place in history. His superior officer had given the order to cease fire, hilt when Nelson saw the signal. with an insIg(C which is cllaracteristic of lilo Immortills, hc saw that three or four dozen iuore shots would turn the tide of victory ill o'tlr favour. To cease fire would moan iiio loss of the battle. You remember Nelson placed the telo- scopo to hiss blind eye and said: “I cannot seo the signal." It is true he faced court martial, but his fero- slght and courage gained hlm honour instead of fllsxraco! It was 'iw rover to see further than the other man. The determination to win the battle under any circumstances. This is what lends a halo to Neison's name as long as the British Empire shall last.

wg must hnvo the courage that

holds us to the right. I like to think or this shepherd hui as possessing a great courage. n courage which faces cvory obstacle. When they told him nf the size or this slant. whose head weighed at least fifty pounds. whose staff was like it wehvor's beam, whose sword weighed fifty pounds. David faced them and said, "DId I not fight tho lion and the bear, and shall not the Lord of Israel be my defence? It is not my battle. It is the battle of the Lord." And with a courage which would not be undermined. which would not be not at nought he resolv- ed to do or die. This reminds ua of the thought that there are men whose purposes have been misapvfohendod.

PETROGRAD, Aug. 13.- Russian

armies having steadily extricated themselves from the Warsaw sack in ‘which the Germans tried to enclose them, are now stubbornly opposing German advance toward Bialystok on a line 70 miles east of Warsaw on both sides of the railroad between the Pel- ish capital and Bialystok.

The Baltic campaign appears to be

at a standstill, with the Russians as- tride the highway between Vltkomir and Poniewesch, and threatening com- munications between the invaders army. The Germans are approaching slightly nearer to Kovno. They are pounding the position with their heavy artillery guns, to which Rus- sian artillery is replying frequently Peasants who escaped from Gorman labor gangs have described deliberate preparations for assault on Kovno which began three months ago. The Germans imported an enormous mass of structural materials, built paved roads froiu the westward, dug found- ations fiftecn feet docp for uiortars, Uliiillg endless pains in preparing cement platforms.
