Prince of Peace, going about do
ing good and seeking % save
mems lives, the author of one.
Satan, the Prince of war, going
about seeking to destroy mems
lives, the author of the other.
These, the two leaders in the
great conflict between right and
wrong, between love and hate.
Their objects and purposes are
clearly set forth in the old book,
we ali, as Christions, profess to
believe, and to-day we are called
upon, as perhaps we have not
been before, to say which side
we are on. There is no escap
ing the issue, no lodging the
question.
Are we for the Prince of Peace,
first, last, all the time, or are We
for the Prince of darkness and
war some of the time?
Not very long ago we heard
an intelligent, educated minister
of the gospel. peace favoring
war, in defense of our rights and
national honor. This may be so
called patriotism. but is it
Christian? Is it the kind of pa
triotism Jesus taught and prac-
ticed? He laid down his life for
his country and for the whole
world, not fighting, but praying,
Father, forgive them, they
know not what they do" This
is the kind he is looking for in
his followers, and the kind we
must have if we walk in his
footsteps and go with him all the
way.
Whence comes this wisdom
that tells us it is noble Christ
ian act to die fighting for our
rights and our nations honor
Is this the wisdom from above,
that is pure, peaceable, gentle,
easy to be entreated, full of mer-
cy and good fruits? Or is it the
wisdom from beneath, which
James says, is earthly, sensual,
devilish? AS professed follow.
ers of him who came, not to de-
stroy, but to save mems lives, is
it not time for us to awake and
see which way we are drifting
Whether toward peace and heav-
en-, or toward war, which we
are fast coming to see is hell.
Isn't it time for US to examine
ourselves to see whether we are
in the faith, and what manner of
spirit we are of? Whether we
are walking after the Spirit or
after the world. the flesh and
the devil? Let US try the spirits
whether they be of God, and to
every spirit that says war, let US
say, get behind me Satan, thou
art an offense unto me, for it is
written; MY kingdom is not of
this, if it were then would my
servants fight" Now since war
is hell, and since Satan is the au-
thor of both and is using both to
destroy mems lives, is it not very
inconsistent to say the least of

Another question that is being
asked is. how can a minister of
the gospel go into the enemies
camp, as a chaplain, and preach
the truth, as Christ and his apos-
ties preached it, without stirring
the war devil and creating
greater commotion than Paul did
when he preached against the
goddess of the Ephesians? 1t is
hard to understand how one can
throw fire into powder without
an explosion, unless there is
something wrong with the fire
or the powder. and as the devil
always keeps his powder dry, we
are forced to the conclusion that
the fire that comes in contact
with his works and does not ex
plode them, is some kind of
strange fire." and not the kim

Heb. 2:14 John 3:8 and prove

is. First Cor. 3:13
The following are extracts
from a sermon by a prominent
pastor of New York City:
For many years this question
has been uppermost in the minds
of thoughtful men, is the Chris
tian religion practicable, or is it
only dazzling dream? Are the
principles of Christ workable,
or are they only the brilliant
suggestions of a beautiful mind !?
Are his commandments binding
On diplomats and rulers, or are
they only poetic sentences to be
memorized by Sunday-School
boys and girls? Is the Golden
Rule for empires as we'll as f r
individuals? Are nations to for
give, or men only? Has the
great commandment binging
force upon statesman, or are
they privileged to act under a
different law? Although there
are thirty-three millions of con-
fessed Christians in our country,
it is doubtful if we should have
squandered more money on bat
tleships than we have, if we had
all been infdels or Mohamnedans
or Apache Indians. The church
is now going to lead in q war
against war. Men are every
where saying: This must be the

have ended war long ago. She
did not do it. Let US hope that
she will now put her hand to the
pillow, and never again look back.
This is the opportunity which
God gives the church to prove
that she possesses a mission
from heaven. There have been
three historic scourges: Famine,
PestiIence and War. The first
two have been slain by science.
The last one science cannot kill.

When nature gives man homely
face and his parents give him home
ly name he is usually considered handi-
capped for life, but a man of the type
of Bill Bone never accepts a handicap.
At an early age he began to assert
his ability, frequently running away
from the corn fields where his father
expected him to plow, to 90 to the
humble garnet Of the farm house to
write rhymes for the papers. Since
these early days Bill has become q
real poet and the demand of his neigh
bors and friends that he read his
home-spun poetry to them over the
back fence gradually has grown until
last year $50 towns demanded that he
read to them on their popular lecture
courses. Mr.. Bone was born not very
far from where Abraham Lincoln
spent his boyhood and he has many
things in common with the great Lib.
orator, sympathetic heart, optimistic
spirit, winsome manner and homely
philosophy with strong sense OF
humor Bill Bone will make you
laugh. He will bring tears to your
eyes. He will make you think. He
will send you away with greater faith
in humanity, in God and In the future
of civilization.
