PREPARED BY H. E. ROGERS, Statistical Secretary ol the General Conference. PUBLISHED BY REVIEW AND HERALD PUBLISHING ASSOCIATION WASHINGTON, D. C. Dare to Do or Die By C. P. Bollman We're enlisted in the army, In the army of the Lord, And we're going forth to battle Armed with his almighty word. They're still fighting in the trenches For a cause not half so dear, Why should we then faint or falter As we face another year? Now our Captain bids, " Go forward." And shall any listless be E'en while warriors brave are dying That republics may be free? Though our weapons are not carnal, They are mighty, they are true ; Jesus says to us, " Be valiant,— Strong to dare, to die. to do." We must fail not then nor falter, But must dare to do or die; Though we fall amidst the conflict, We shall reign with Christ on high. 1 PREFACE. The following pages contain a revision of the Conference directories for the year 1918. Complete revisions will be found for all the fields represented with the exception of certain unions in the European Divi- sion, which are reprinted from the former Year Book, as indicated in later pages. This was necessitated because of the impossibility of secur- ing returns from the fields.
