TIE Nineteenth century has
done marvellous things for man,
bnt it has failed to accomplish one
thing which, had it been achieved
during this century would have en-
titled it to be printed in letters of
shining gold in the book of Time
a nd that IS the cessation of war.
The century that shall witness the
dawn Of eternal peace on earth,
when men shall cease to murder
each other to crafty the greed or
political policies Of natiOns-that
century wlll indeed be blessed
amOugst all the eOns OF eternity.
