PRAYER SERVICE A service of United Prayer will be held in the Aveleigh Presbyterian church Friday morning, June 7, at ten o’clock to which everybody is in vited. The service is one of prayer for the war stricken countries of Europe, where tragic sufferings daily increase as the war is being waged. We pray that peace may come to all nations. CHURCH SCHOOL DAY AT TRINITY Church School Day will be observ ed at Trinity church Sunday, June ninth at 10:45 o’clock. SPECTATOR (Continued from page four) in the history of nations, saw clearly that the world could never enjoy peace or security if divided into op posing camps bristling with cannon. Is it not so? America, hailed by all as the hope of oppressed people, proudly proclaiming her zeal to make a just and equitable settlement, reject ed the great plan which she herself, through President Wilson, had given to the embattled but exhausted na tions. Our Senate in a great surge of practicality refused to let this na tion become embroiled in Europe’s affairs! Henceforth America would hold aloof front Europe and all the turmoil and clash of international riv alries. And this feverish military preparation of ours today is a trium phant result of our splendid isolation and our resolove to keep out of Eu rope’s troubles! What a trick fate has played us! What an irony, that we make frenzied preparation to withstand passible encroachments by the thunderous might of stupendous armaments when the flower of our statesmanship had rocked us in a cradle of security far from the mad ding crowd’s ignoble strife? What thinks America today of Woodrow Wilson and his plan of peaceful negotiations, in place of the spoliation of arbitraments by weight of metal and range of guns? When our great America refused to join the League the issue was clear; force through alliances would again revive and intensify animosities, am bitions and far-flung designs of ag grandizement. Shall mankind live in a world of arms forever? Shall we who have created courts and systems of juris- prodence contrive no means of settle ment among nations except by sacri fice of millions of young men, suffer ing of women, destruction of the rich heritage of the ages? However this war may end we shall prepare for another within the next generation. Can we contemplate this without un speakable horror? Yet if man shall emerge from this war victor and van quished the vanquished will again prepare for revenge. Does it bring us back to the great vision of Wilson, of nations seeking peaceful adjust ments through orderly processes of justice ? After the Armistice I visited the devastated areas of France and Bel gium. I joined the great throng of those who thought this could never happen again. Incredible suffering and destruction on every side. But among men. How unspeakably tragic is the disillusionment! All the hor rors of that war have already been exceeded. Shall we go through the anguish of this slaughter for noth ing? After an experience with men in their futile gestures and strivings, with all the pitiful record of failure, I find myself repeating with fresh wonderment the admonition of Paul “That your faith stand not in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God”. Thoughtful men are asking them selves if life offers no more than sanguinary strife every generation. Certainly if the passions of men are dominant the future offers nothing of hope. Is there no surer foundation on which to build civilization? For twenty centuries we have done lip service to the Prince of Peace while trusting to our own strength and re sources. Shall Ve now, as practical men, stand finally convinced of the spurious wisdom distilled from the rise of empires and repudiate it for that leadership which Napoleon in exile recognized as greater than was ever achieved by force of arms ? With force arrogant and triumph, nothing will count but force; so must we prepare, remembering the words of the Supreme Teacher “When a strong man armed keepeth his pal ace, his goods are in peace”. So must we emulate the strong man during the emergency, but mankind cannot strive on warlike emergencies. When this storm blows over humanity should not devote its energies and resources to preparation for another tragic era; our common sense, our nothing is finally solved by might alone. Our wisdom in its most prac tical aspects recognizes the truth of the remark of the Great Teacher fol lowing my quotation “But when a stronger than he shall come upon him, and overcome him, he taketh from him all his armour wherein he trust ed, and divideth his spoils”. So shall it be if by war we seek to solve the problems of nations.
