"We all understand that in the pres
ent conflict which RACES in Europe we
cannot directly interfere, and such in
reference, unless it is of delicate
nature, will only aggravate matters. /
wish to offer as a suggestion three ideas
to strengthen our moral force for peace
First, Keep the public mind fair and
impartial. Do not easily believe wrong
of your fellow man, and do not attri-
butte an individual act to class or to
nation. [ might say that not only
Kenosha, but the whole country, has
treated this matter justly and with
good judgment Second, We could by
moral support, by resolutions and by
petitions asking men of international
fame, rs our president at Washington,
Woodrow Wilson, and the Holy Father
at Rome have done, to use their good
offices in the interest of peace. Third
We should not overlook the necessity
of divine assistance.
The Rev. Fred Ingley, rector Of ST.
Matthews Episcopal church, was not on
the program for the principal speech,
but he was cheered and encouraged to
continue until he had made the long
est address of the day. He caught the
favor OIL his audience with his topic
which was Kill Germs, not Germans;
Fight Parasites, Not Parisians' He
spoke in part as follows: In view of
Ia demonstration like this surely no one
can say that Christian civilization in
the twentieth century has failed. Let
nobody say that twentieth century
civilization has failed, for never in the
history of the world were there so
many people who are convinced that
war is barbaric, insane and unChris-
tlan. The Indian taught his child that
the greatest glory of an Indian was to
scalp white man. and the more scalps
that child secured, the greater he count
ed himself. According to the ideals of
the twentieth century, the name of the
president will be marked as one Of the
greatest in America. If it had not
been for his diplomacy thousands of
young men would have been obliged to
lay down their lives on the battle fields
of Mexico. IF a vote were held in
France to see who was the greatest
Frenchman in history, it would not be
Napoleon; it would be Pasteur, who
saved life. If the people Of England
were asked to decide the greatest Eng
hshman, it would not be Lord Kitch-
ener or the Duke of Wellington. DR..
Lisler would rank higher and greater
than any warrior because he was in
strumental in saving countless human
lives. Peace is no weak thing, friends,
but is living, burning, manly virtue
without which any people is weak and
futile and barbaric. Let the world
fight germs instead of Germans; let US
wage war on parasites instead of
Paris. -
The concluding address of the after
noon was made by DR.. Howard NJ .Tay-
lor of Chicago, who spoke especially of
the part that America, as great lover
Of peace, could have in bringing uni
versal peace in Europe.
While the great crowd was attending
the speaking meeting at the city hall
crowd as great or greater gathered
at Library Park where Vasellios and
Athena Kenellos two wonderful Gre
clan dancers, were the big feature
These wonderful boy and girl dancers
who had appeared before the King and
Queen Of Greece, at the great fete at
Athens, rendered three classic interpre-
tive dances, including The Shepherd
dance, the Dance of Thanksgiving, and
closing with the famous Dance of
Peace. Probably the people Of Keno
sha will never have such a chance to
