Those of you who weren’t at the
Lutheran Church of the Redeemer
Sunday to hear the Newberry College
Baccalaureate sermon preached by the
Rev. Charles B. Foelsch, of Sunbury,
Pa. really missed something. The
sermon was an inspiration, not only
to the graduating class, but to all
in the church, which was filled to ca
pacity. As Mr. B. .M. (Boo) Scurry
said. “It was worth standing the
whole time to hear a sermon like
that.”

Tlie Baptist Church of Newberry
which was the scene of the Laval-
Wilson wedding last Saturday after
noon was a lovely sight to behold.
Giant palms and maiden hair fern
decorated the center of the platform.
White tapers were burning on either
side. A green and white'-, color
scheme was used altogether, with
huge baskets of Madonna lilies and
white larkspur used about the front
of the church. Large bouquets of
white and green adorned the pipes
of the organ and small larkspur bou
quets tied with white satin ribbon
marked the places for the guests to
sit.

One of the very loveliest spots in

most any color or shade you can
think of, some of the blooms at least
six inches across. Drive by and look
at the flowers surrounding the pool.
It will be well worth your while.

IS THIS YOU?
Did you guess the person who was
described in last week’s column? In
case you didn’t, your soc, ed. will
tell you. It was Miss Sadie Bowers,
of McCaughrin Avenue, who identi
fied herself and received a coupon
for one quart of Taylor Made Ice
Cream from Stoke’s Drug store.
Since you weren’t the winner last
week, maybe you are this week.
We don’t think the lady we des
cribe this week will mind us saying
that she is gray headed, and very
nice. She was seen at the Newberry
College Commencement Tuesday
morning wearing a ciepe dress. The
background of the dress was navy
and vari-colored stripes ran bias.
The front waist was pleated, and also
the skirt. She was wearing black
shoes and navy hat. If this is you,
bring this article to the Sun office
and receive your coupon entitling
you to one quart of ice cream from
Stokes’ Drug store.

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.
