From of old satirists have found u
theme, and poets and prophets a text,
in the powcrlessness of religion to
prevent the barbarism of war. II Is a

which means slaughter and misery.
Both sides. on their own admission,

both insist that they have. II is a
spectacle of mortal inconsistency and
weakness Of which one might well be-
lieve in the bold Hebrew imagery. "He
that stitch in the heavens shall
laugh"
Thus it is that 1t seems to us hasty
to pronounce this awful ana desolat-

Clergymen have, in their first feeling
of profound detection and discourage

general position that such war APP

thize; but we must discriminate
Christianity has not ceased to be a
powerful motive in the hearts of men.
But a horrible situation has brought
millions of men and women into Il
state of confusion and perplexit., as
regards their relation to their eoun-
try and their God. and out of this has
risen the seeming willingness to drag
Providence into the carnage, which
has shocked many a tender con-
science. II is for religious men to
abide Gods good time, assured that,
