Philip Ellis ? o r o ' WHfr<?<',X',W"{wI,<,<,<Mi^WwW "Watchman, Tell us of the Night** ^1 doubt seriously as to whether there has ever been more unrest jt{ j in the world's history than there is today. What the nations o 1 earth exeperience next, only God can tell. Apparently governments are corrupt from A to Z, and there seems to be none wise e-1 nou^h to lead out of this confused , iponey are flowing in the United, States for housing projects and still any number of poor- deserving1 people have no place to live. With' the millions of dollars Ithat are I being spent for employment, thou' sands are. still walking the streets! begging for work. Who has a word nf imennrnirnmont.? Tfcado o 1 , great republics seem to be standing with the proverbial chip on their shoulders challenging each other to knock it off so as^to be, given si baptism of war fire and! destructive gas from which the aggressors will Be. miles away.; Those who lire responsible tor! wars never see the slaughtered! dead or hear the blast of machine guns. This is a dreadful age In] which to live. Latest horrifying ex' perience of this corruptable- age is the killing syndicate which has been exposed in the north and east. The story is that there is a secret organized company set?up with headquarters in?metropolitan cities whose function rs to contact disgruntled wives and have them kill their husbands by feeding them with poison so as to collect their insurances. The same is true as to dissatisfied husbands. To my mind .this rs almost an unpardona ble.__.sin. I wilb adm+t'Thrrt many a husband and wife are absolutely good for nothing and it would, seem that a.few rat biscuits would be the ri^ht meals for them. But God says, vengeance ts mine and I will repay. No husband or wife is justified hi taking the lives of? each other through such an unGodly scheme. No Peace Without The Prince The strangest thing in all the wen Id is to see oxnltod rulers assembling in conferences and around tables discussing terms for peace without mentioning the name of Jesus who is the Prince of peace. Why national heads do not use the name of God and out Savicn- more in their peace?invitations and proclamations is a puzzle to me. Are they ashamed or afraid to call His nameT'There is one thing cchtain and that is peace _ ^wil' never come through political strategy. It will only come by natrons and individuals coming t o Christ, Peace must come inttrthe world through the church which is its chief agency. In fact the true condition of the Christian church registers in the world. Too! often We are snHlv mist-niton when I , we think anil speak of peace, i n : 0 the church. It's just on the surface, when hidden beneath is the! worse form of confusion only waiti ing an opportunity to break out. After all a mere side stepping of duty and a compromise of principle to secure peace don't worth the breath to express it, nor the paper on which it is written. To say there is peace when there has been no let up in a secret warfare is to sound a false alarm. In any number of instances both in sac red and secular histories, peace came as the result -of?wan Na " tions^ and persons had to plunge into war to obtain peace. And on the other hand those who were too timid or afraid to fight were themselves beaten to death in the end. ?; South Carolina Now so far as the A. M. E. Church is concerned in this state I am not at all uneasy, and will never be as long as God lives. All of its problems will be worked: out in due time. Churches of all denominations have their contrary! winds as well as their smooth sail ing. I confess to the credit of many of them, they keep theii soiled clotlies in bags where they belong, while to0 many of us are inclined to hang ours on front ? porches.?Lot us set our house in order a t commencement this month and get squaVely behind * Dr. T.
