CONFIDENCE KEY
TO EASY PASSAGE
So Declared Rev. A. H.
Thompson in Dealing with
the Present Crisis.

1.-THE Duty of Leaders of Thought
in the Present Crisis was the subject
of the sermon delivered Sunday morn.
| ing by Rev. A. H. Thompson, pastor
of the First Methodist church, in
which sermon he availed himself of
the opportunity of dealing with the
necessity of confidence and of non
partisanship in the present European
war. In part, he said:
The solidity of our race makes 1t
impossible for one part of the world
| to be engaged in war without affecting
the rest. If one member suffers all
the others suffer with it. 1t is not sur
prising therefore that we are affected
| by war in Europe.
Cur danger is two-fold: From
panic and partisanship. We are III
danger Of panic because of what we
imagine concerning cost of living and
try. Reports from the highest
sources are reassuring. Our crops are
large and abundantly able to support
u.s. Our government is alert TO sup
press and punish any unnatural in
flation of prices. The danger of a
railroad strike has passed. And big
business is prepared for the present
emergency. 1t had been following a
system of retrenchment for some time
the strain recently shows the essential
soundness of our financial institutions.
Especially is this true of local institu-
tions. The banks of our city were
never III better condition than at
present Any lack of confidence in
them is utterly uniustified. The hour
calls for confidence which is the bed
rock of finance. Our credit system
is based upon it. The man who boards

that he wishes to avoid. We are in a
great and prosperous country well
able to take care Of itself should the
whole world become involved in war
Our attitude as citizens should be one
Of calm and dignified self-control
such as our president advises. We
should also be absolutely impartial
in our attitude towards warning coun-
tries. They are all ours. We are re-
pitiful thing that they should be en-
gagged in war at all. Especially is this
true when the unnatural alliances are
considered. Nations that should be
side by side are fighting against each
other. But there will come an end.
Exhaustion will take place. Then
these warning nations will be willing
to listen to counsels of peace. what
a calamity it would he If at that time
the United States could not speak!
And that will be our condition unless
we are very guarded in our utterances
at the present time.
public opinion is irresistible. But
public opinion is but private opinion
capitalized Therefore ii behooves us
all to guard with care what he eN-
presses. Intemperance in speech now
may easily create a sentiment in this
country, which would not only unfit us
to act as lnediators, but might even
involve us in war.
We should think peace, talk peace
and work for peace. Above all we
should urge the acceptance of that
Christ who alone can end war by i'm
parting the kindliness of heart. the
brotherly love of spirit. which will
make war impossible.
