During the Summer.

While President Wilson and his assoc
ciates are bending every effort to the
mobilization of the physical resources
OF the nation for the prosecution of the
war, an army Of trained platformists
In 5000 Chautauqua tents and audito-

Such Is the declaration Of the Chau-

OF managers in direct control of most
of the Chautauquas in America, who
have placed the services Of their plat
forms qnreservedly at the call of the

AN America of one mind regarding
the war is invincible," says DR.. Paul
M. Pearson, secretary of the Managers
association, ''and there is no more ef-
fective way of reaching the people and
effecting solidarity Of opinion than is
offered by Chautauquas of America.
'In our audiences this summer will
be gathered more than 100000 repre-
sentative Americans, the warp and
wool of the body polite. What these
men and women think about the war
Is all important Their attitude to-
ward it will mean swift and terrible
or weak and hating America. To
help them think right is the task of
the Chautauqua. Every energy will be
devoted to sounding patriotic note.
'Chautauqua, which for forty years
has labored' for greater democracy in
America, will in this international
crisis do it's duty in supporting the ma
tional program to make democracy

HE GREAT WAR, PRUSSIAN NdILITARISAA, AND THE
RECONSTRUCTION OF MODERN CIVILIZATION
7 III Z,

WHEN a nation or city is alarmed by
the approach of epidemic disease, what
course is adopted?
Do the authorities send out large num-
Der of healthy citizens to catch the infection
and bring it into the alarmed community, or
do they quarantine against it?
If the authorities should open the way FOX
the entrance of the plague, they would be con.
sidered insane, and if they should send forth
large numbers of sound men to contract the
pestilence and bring it in, they would be con-.
sldered criminal.
Now consider this foreign horror which,
goes by the name of Prussian militarlsm :
what is the best way to treat it? |
Should qoe shut 1t ont, or should aOe send a
million men to catch it2
AS long as Prussan militarism stays in
Prussia, its none of our business.
IF that is what the Germans like, let them
have it.
We have not discussed the existence of au-
tocracy in Japan: we have not bothered our
heads about autocracy In Spain: we made no
protest against the autocracy of Russia.
Why have we suddenly become responsible
for the universe?
To show you how wildly vague are the
prevailing notions about our embarking upon
the European War, will quote the preamble
to DR.. Gambrell's resolution adopted by the
Southern Baptist Convention, few days
ago:
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1917-05-31
THE SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION.

The Southern whites and blacks constitute
the bulk OF communicates.
Great Britain was the birthplace of the
modern Baptist church, and yet its numbers
are small
Is it possible that in China we have so few
adherents that DR.. Burrows had to lump them
with Brazil and Argentina to Sare appear
0nceS?
Less than 1858 Baptists among the Chi
nese, after so many generations of effort, and
the expenditure Of such huge sums Of money?
Only 1854 Baptists in continental Eu
rope, Asia Africa, and Australia.
IF DR.. Burrows would tell us achot propor-
ton the 1858 Baptists in Brazil, Argentina,
and China bear to the whole number that have
been educated, doctored, fed, and clothed, he
would command attention.
Our people have not been told how many
thousands of the Chinese they build schools
for and extensively educate, but who ncrer
become Christians.
These Orientols take the education, but do
not change their religion.
RevoIVe this question in your own mind:
Suppose our churches had limited their mis-

exercise of religion shall be free to every human
soul.
give the above because it fairly represents
current opinion.
Dr. Gambrell spoke for his resolution, and
was vigorously applauded. His resolutions
were enthusiastically adopted and they were
published as the official voice of nearly three
million white Baptists
Is a reconstruction of modern civilization
now going on?"
Did the Almighty thrust President Wilson
into second term?
When [ hear minister of the Gospel. talk
ing to great gathering of brother ministers,
and telling them, in effect, that God elected
to have seven million soldiers slain. and seven
million homes desolated, as a preliminary to
reconstruction of modern. civilization" [
confess my inability to understand that con-
ception Of God and Of religion.
Not one of those private soldiers was in the
least responsible for autocracy, special priv
lege, or militarism.
Those who acere responsible are still alive,
occupying the high seats in life.
If Christian civilization needed ''recon-
struction," after the religion of Christ had
been supreme for 1000 years, who was at
fault?
Never have [ known the churches to wage
bl0odless but earnest wars against autOcracy,
special privilege, and mllitarism.

The Southern Baptist Convention assembled in
the City of New Orleans May 10Th, 1917, repre-
senting the views commonly held by the Baptists
everywhere contemplating with mingled feelings
Of sorrow and hope the conflict of the great ma
tions which recognize struggle of mill
simple, fundamental indefeasibie and inalienable
human rights.
Can you imagine more indefinite declara
ton, as to the purposes which drag us into
the quicksand?
:. Is "autocracy" confined to any one nation?
Is special privilege a European monopoly!
Is militarlsm local curse!
It is a most lamentable fact, that there isn't
a government on earth that is not afflicted
with one or the other of these evils; and any
one who knows about the land monopoly in
England, the special privileges of American
manufacturers, and the militarism even of
Switzerland, will read with establishment DR..

cross an ocean 5000 miles wide, in order that
we may help--with blood and treastre-crush

The Gambrell resolution further declared,
as to our aim in the War:
We insist that in the reconstruction Of modern
civilization now going on that the President of the
United States and his cOunsellOrS, whom PrOV1-
denCe has thrust into the leadership of advancing
civilization shall, in the final adjustment Of the

There are now "a, 6O2 churches in the South,

There were 1884 deaths reported from the
churches of the South during the year In the

DR.. Burrows report further shows
The value of church property for this year was

year. The contributions for local expenses were
$10,182,873 and for missions and other benevo-
