KANSAS WHEAT

The state of Kansas alone will this
year produce enough wheat to feed
more than one-sixth of the population
Of the United States for n year. The
soldiers of tire army are allowed one
loaf of bread a day. and the Kansas
wheat crop would provide this aver
age ration for 17.53TO COO soldiers for
one year. The magnitude of the crop
is illustrated again in the statement
that it could be made 10 girdle the

their bumper crop the farmers of Kan

In few days we wiIlceIebrate Christ's
birthday. He came into the world to
givvpeace. This is His gift to humanity.
He can give it 10 those only who will re-
ceive it. There is no peace with the
wicked, for they are in constant rebellion
against God. therefore cannot receive it
as gift from the Father. Those who
live in harmony with the principle gov
eriog the kingom Of Heaven have
peace. This blessing comes in varying
degrees. II one is in perfect accord with
Jesus he is given perfect peace, and this
state is disturbed only by disturbing this
relation. 1t comes, therefore, in re-
fsponse to a full surrender TO the win OF
Col. There may be disturbance with
out; he world may CRASH its teeth in
fury. Wicked men may rage and the
hand pf persecution may be heavy, with
true christian, there abides perfect
peace within. Senator Elihu Root sug-
gests that for 4 given FIVE minutes on
Feb. II, 1915, the anniversary Of the
ratification by the American and British
Governments Of the treaty signed at
GheN, all human activity, as far as
possible shall cease, AID that the hum
bred ard fifty million EngIish-speaking
people throughout the world shall en-
gage in client prayer for peace on earth
land goo! will to man. The Federal
Council q churches, representing thirty
one American religious bodies with
eighteen million members, has appoint
ed commission on Peace aud Arbitra-
ton, whose duty it shall be to set forth
in every Practical way the facts that
Christ's GoFpel is re-eminently one OF
peace, and that it is the duty Of the
churches TO endorse without reservation
the treaties proposed by President Taft.
In his most recent message on the sub
ject of Peace, President Taft appeals in
this way to the woman Of America to
support these treaties. Now is the time
to act. Every woman who reads should
write to one or more Of the Senators
representing her State in Congress, and
urge that the peace treaties be ratified.
Every individual, every club, every
union, every church, every newspaper,
every magazine should use all possible
means to induce the Senate to submit to
public opinion. z These are President
Tait's words taken from a religious
paper which ! have but recently read
and / deem it a subjectfor us to con-
slider and discuss. 1t isl as though the
world were preparing to bloom forth in
realized gospel Of peace that shall hold
nation at bay and cry shame" on any
that dare advocate unjust and bloody
warfare. Let us hope the time will
come when there will be no more war.
whea Christianity has done its perfect
work, and peace will be carried into the
State, the Nation and the world. The
Bible teaches US The implements of
war shall become the implements Of
peace and there shall be none to hurt IN
all my holy mountains. For such
peace let US work and pray; may each
one Of us haveo our minds stayed on Him
who il the author Of peace.
