Peter the HermIt's Crusade.

Peter the Hermit led a crusade of men,
women and children from Europe against
the aliens who held Palestine and the
holy city of Jerusalem, striving to drive
out the evidences of christianity. Cen

ton Army. has marshaled all his forces

against the enemies of law and good or

them as coworkers In his ranks In his

Efforts of Napoleon.

''Napoleon's effort was to assert
Frances supremacy over Italy. General
Booths effort is to assert Christ's SUI
premacy over human hearts and human
destinies. The one was building a tenn
poral structure for time, the other is
building a spiritual structure for time and
eternity, fixing Gods supremacy in the
human heart for the elevation and en-
nobling of humanity. The one was a sell
fish heroism, stepped with personal ambi-
tion and the sacrifice of the lives of
many; the other Is a moral heroism that
has carried many martyrs to the stake,
and has given mankind evidences of the
fact that some men have died for prin-
ciple and some men can live for love
Of humanity and free from selfshness.
LET us take the lesson the Salvation
army teaches us-to live for others. Let
each of us. like each of them, realize
that we have a duty no other can do.
Let us do 1t
