Message Of
Peace

If this graphic presenment serves no other purpose,
its message for universal peace marks it of great inn
portance Morally and educatonally it establishes the
futity of armed conflict member of the senate of
the United States expressed the foregoing sentiment
Anyone contemplating should see this picture"
added the senator sincerely believe it will do more
to deter people from engaging in war than anything
written or spoken on the subject in years"
Great care has been taken not to glorify battle.
Even the music stops in its motif of glorficaton to
sound the note of terror and desoation which is the
real truth of war;
Armies seldom settle disputed questions of state But
where they accomplish this much in the wake of
ct arises newer and more terrible questions But for
the hatred engendered in the Civil war; the suffering
of the Reconstruction period would never have been
known.

Events of the past year in Eu-

rugged qualities that will enable it
to hold its own when menaced by
war and finally unless it has so

SAILED.
Until nation has fitted itself to
defend itself it is not of fundamen-

THEREFORE, THE BOYS AND
