The Prince Of Peace
As the Man Of War

Did our Lord and Saviour stand for
peace or war?
Perhaps q brief analysis will help
to answer the question, which at frst
may seem absurd.
What Is war and how does II arise?
War cannot be satisfactorily ex-
plained unless the fundamental facts
Of life are considered. Nothing can
be more irrational than q condition
which destroys the happiness ana
purpose Of every normal life Is that
peace and Joy which makes life worth
while. How, then, can war be toler-
ated by rational beings when # de-
stroys those ideals which every one
Of common sense holds to be most
desirable? II might seem at first
that war was an evil beyond
our control and that we must sub
'nlt to q condition that has been
;cfsely defined as hell The explana-
ton is found by determination. For
every Individual II q little world
within himself and the same mystery
which confounds and confuses the
nations works havoc and ruin oft
times to the individual soul. Go to
the penitentiary, the asylum, the cell
of the man condemned to electric
chair or gallows. What caused the
ruin Of these unfortunates? What.
indeed. except following inclination
instead Of conscience? In every one
of them there had been years of con-
fiict against that which was best and
noblest within; or there had been
easy yielding without struggle to
that which was baaest and most
brutal.
The fact Of vital interest is that
within each one there had been war
fare. the force of evil and the force
of righteousness contending and the
Individual will the deciding factor.
The result was inevitable. The viii
