birth of the child of freedom and pic tured the glory of the American ideal could he develop and grow up without the influences of tcowardly, hated war
 The story of "The Organization Of the Court of Arbitration" was treated by Elder c. F. flakes, jr. He placed the inceptive call for the international court of arbitration which met ct The Hague. to the credit of the czar Of Rus sia, and reviewed the story of it's or ganization and the rules that govern it in it's deliberations upon International questions that come before it, each Iower having four representatives.
 "A Statement of the Cases That Have Already Been Presented Before It" was treated by Rev. Wm. Pearce He Ieferred to the great good to hu- manity that might be accomplished should the world be willing to take the great questions or controversy before it. and while they are not bound by the decisions of The Hague, the wars Of the world would abate. He mentioned and. briefly described the Venezuela ar Duration. the Behring Sea trouble set tied by arbitration: the Alaska bo;:l- dary line dispute settled by a-bitra- ton; and a number of others ard h every case showed the beneGcent re- suits to the countries interested in the 1 settlement.
 |. "Conslderation of the Differences Ex- | isting Among the People at the Pres | ent Time Which Properly Should Be ! Referred to the Court of Arbitration" 1 was treated by Prof. D. Dudley Jones. He reviewed the great questions that | might have been adjudieated had they 1 come before the court, but that there | were questions that the great men Of l preceding nations and days had never | dreamed of that confronted the people l today. He mentioned several of the l d nerenCes that now confronted the nations that should be brought before and settled by the court of arbltra- ton. He declared of all wars the one now waging between Japan and Rus sia was the most uncalled for and would achieve absolutely no good to the world. He declared that this was | one question that should be brought before the court of arbitration, and that the horrible shedding of blood by the wholesale should be stopped and prayed God to speed the day when men i should learn war no more, but that all l international differences should be set 1 tied by peaceful means.
 The Incompatibility of the Christian Life, with War, Its Practices and ] Ideals" was treated by Elder r. T. 1 Pomeroy. He quoted PauI's words, "He hath made of one blood all na- tions,' and declared that when the
 thunder of the grand fundamental truth, proclaimed by Paul The Fath- erhood of God and the Brotherhood Oi Man" had found a dwelling place in the great pulsadng heart of humanity then would war cease and Christianity have achieved her greatest victory. He
 believed that our fathers were justified
 before God in the war of the revolution
 for they fought for human rights fol which they had appealed in vain, and
 in the victory achieved had laid the axe at the root of the tree Of despot-
 ism, which for centuries had drank tho life-blood of the nations, and that its
 benefcent result was being manifest
 ed in the spreading of the doctrine oi
 freedom among all the earth. But ev-
 en this, he said was only half a Chris
 tan war. For there could be no Chris
 tian war, except with the weapons tha'
 Christ armed His disciples, and that
 was love" the great energizing prin
 ciple chosen by the Master to cOnqueI
 Sdtan, sin and the grave, the principle
 chosen not only to save mankind iron
 the tyranny of man, but emancipat'
 him from death and the grave, anC
 give him never ending peace.
 At the conclusion of the programm a resolution endorsing the arbitration
 movement was unanimously adopted after which the choir sang the anthem
 ''GIory Be to God,'' and w. J. LeBarol
 pronounced the benediction.
