THE OLD GRAY

i "H nmketh wars to-raise unto |
- tlu- end of the earth." Psalm
f 46: it. From the quotation cited it
- is plainly .shown that ALMIGHTY
t GOD must intervene in the affairs
T the nation before wars among
them will gtnl in peace. The' sad |
mi? take among the Christians the
t world over is that God is left out
3 entirely in--the effort t?-^- close j.
r these destructive wars that are j
</ being waged in the world today.
b 'Tis true as citizens colored' and
whiter we-- must-support our g</v-;
emment's program at the cost of.._
our lives. But I am afraid that'
we are using weapons that are [
uncertain. No one will question |
the right of the country to make t
