"PEACE ON EARTH"
Settling Differences by Sword an An
tiuuated Notion, Saws DR.. Hamlin.

Rev. DIR. Teunis S. Hamlin delivered the
Christmas sermon at the Church of the
Covenant yesterday morning on The In
elusive Errand of Jesus on Earth taking
as a text Luke ii:14: 'On earth peace good
will toward men," DR.. Hamlin said in
part that the way for the coming of uni
versal peace has been marvelously smooth
ed out. The old notion, he declared that
all International difficulties must be set
tied by the sword is at this Christmastide
as antiquated as the old notion that all
personal quarrels must be settled by the
duel.
Civilized nations, the speaker added, have
agreed to arbitrate all differences that do
not concern national integrity and honor
Speaking of the issue, he said, it Is usually
tested by superior workmanship superior
agility and superior sword play of the con-
testants, but the moral question at issue is
not touched even in the remotest way by
using force. According to the speaker
personal quarrel may, indeed, be brought
to an end by one party being killed, or
beaten into helplessness. but it's issue of
veracity, or other virtue, remains open
as before.
DR.. Hamlin added:
International justice is not done at the
lannon's mouth 1t may happen that the
nation in the right is the stronger but
successful war proves strength and not the
right
II call upon you. then. beloved, on this
happy anniversary of the birth of the
Prince of Peace to seek everywhere the
peace of good will founded on genuine
respect. First, make your peace with God
by repentance and faith, and so gain peace
of mind Then be at peace in your family,
your circle of friends, your church, your
neighborhood. Next be peacemaker' in
