BUSINESS AND WORLD PEACE

The first emphasis OF the Inter
national Chamber OF Commerce
Meeting held at Boston was given
to the subject OF world peace. II
the foreign policies Of the nations
Of the world were in the hands Of
the business men, instead of kings,
emperors. mobiles. and politicians. the
forts could all be sold for summer
resorts, and the warships used for
Sunday school excursions.
The inccssant friction between Eu-
ropean powers keeps the entire
world stirred up. II leads to enor-
nous expenditure for the latest frills
in armament, not merely across the
water. but IN this country. The
standard OF our naval expenditure is
closely determined by what England
and Germany are doing.
Foreign wars have always been
favoritc political trick Of the old
world rulers. When discomfort reach
ed high level. the people out OF
work and not enough bread for the
hungy. the patriotic fervor OF war
against a hatred traditional foe
would always convert political agi-
tators into soldiers.
II the police choke down free
speech among rcvolutionaries and
street corner demagogucs. the spirit
Of rebellion and anarchy is multi

Of late years. the enormous cost

usually led to the substitution Of
diplomacy for fighting. But the

staggering burden on The working

abroad, and in spite Of diplomacy !,

The power of business has for sew
eral decades been the best preventive
Of war. Many times when kings
and diplomats would have found

BLOODY MURDER.

When you hear anyone yelling
Bloody Murder" on the street. II
usually has no significance other
than that some ama,ory youth is
taking advantage OF darkness for de-
grccs oi familiarity not provided for
in the etiquette book. The worst
possible outcome is a snatched kiss,
and one hardly feels called on for
iorciblc interference on that basis.
There was a time. however. when
the fear Of sudden death by violence
was very real and very near. As
one reads about the Roscnthal muir
der in New York. how IL seems like
some reversion to the brutality OF
the Middle Ages. when at the street
corner oi any town. or in any coun-
try road, the cry Of Murder" was
so often the last desperate shrek of
life in its final agony. 1t was no
joke in those days. II meant that
true man must put hand on steel,
and risk life itself for the rescue OF
the weak.
The lust OF gold has produced in
New York. and indeed in most Of
our other big cities. an underworld
of crime that il as close TO the beast

Dark Ages.
II will croak him, you will croak
him. he will croak him" is the con
jugation Of the ominous verb that

conversation OF the New York gun
men. The dirty brutality Of il ap-
pears in the free use of the vulgar
slang.
II makes no difference whether the
particular men on trial are guilty or
not, in any event there Is COM
muniiy of barbarism IN the great
city which will keep on"croaking"
people who know too much for the
good OF the gang.

Christmas Music at the Churches.


The especially Christmas musical
programs at the various churches yes

ing mention and showed evidence of
hard practice and thorough drilling
to have reached the high degree of
perfection shown in the various mas
terpieces of Christmas music. 1t is
only lack of space which prevents a
more extended review of each pro-
gram
At the Christian church, the choir,
under the able direction of Mrs. NJ
H. Loeffler rendered a program
which would have done credit to a
metropolitan choir of any large city
The program was unusually well Sc
lected and thorough training result
ed in an exquisite harmony in the
chorus work and some particularly
good solos, duet and quartette work
One of the most wonderful numbers
on the program was the rendition
of Shubert's "Twenty-third Psalm, ;"
by Mesdames Lamberth, Boyer, Loef-
fler and Miss Moulton. This was
most exquisite in its perfect harmo-
ny and showed careful training TO
have reached such a degree of per-
fection.
Home of the Soul" in chorus
with solos by Mrs. Loeffler and Mr..
Weber, was also particularly fine,
while the male quartette, "It Came
Upon Midnight Hour" by Messrs.
Webber. Long. Brown and Bullock,
was one of the most enjoyable selec-
tions of the evening. The work by
Mrs. Mariner and Mrs. Harris as ac-
companists deserves special mem
ton. e
At the Presbyterian church,
choir of thirty voices assisted in rem
dering an unusually fine program,
the opening number of which, the In
troit anthem. GLORY Be to God in
the Highest" by the invisible choir,
being one of the most beautiful
things ever given by a chorus in the
city. The program was filled with
excellent numbers, perfectly rendered
by trained voices, and ended with a
duet, Christmas by Mr.. and Mrs.
Carl E. Kiefer, which was one of the
prettiest pieces of work in vocal
way ever heard. The whole program
was hugely enjoyed by the large
audience which gathered for the mu-
sical treat.
At the Congregational church the
special Christmas music was given
at the morning service and under the
direction of Miss Langland, with
