love our country, we ought to feel that not
even the lives of our dearest friends are too
nigh price to pay for its unity and prosperity.
In times when selfish fears may blind us, the
only measure for our own duty is what we
would consider right for others in the same
circumstances.
Duties cannot conflict. 1t being right for
our husbands, sons and brothers, to continue
their service through the war unless disabled,
it certainly must be wrong for us to discour-
age them in so doing.
The only questions are is the war unavoid-
able? is it just conflict? To these it seems
to me there can be but one answer. That be-
ing in the affirmative, as if we are honest it
cannot fail to be, let us not even by silence aid
the enemies of our country. We ought new
er to forget that nations are composed of indi-
yidnals, and that all history is but the sum of
individual action. In ordinary times it is of
little or no consequence what small ciiques or
parties may do, but now none can compute
the Importance of even the slightest ripple on
the current of affairs.
Let US ever remember this, and let our con-
duct be such that whatever may be the result
ol this fearful war, our hearts can never con-
denim us for selfish faltering. S.J.F
