CHAPLAIN EDROP SPEAKS
ON CHURCH AND WAR
Says Lessons of Wartime Are Worth All They Cost and
That Out of Suffering Men Find God-Pays
Tribute to Cardinal Mercier

Captain Percy T. Edrop. chaplain OF
the Forty-seventh Regiment, New
York Infantry. addressed the regular
Sunday afternoon meeting at the y
NJ c. a. yesterday on The Church and
the War For many years Captain
Edrop served as rector Of the Church
OF Cancellation. Brooklyn. n. Y.
Taking his text from . Kings XIX 2S
Because thy rage against me and thy
tumuit is come UP into mine ears,
therefore / will put my hook in thy
nose. and my bride in thy lips and I
will turn thee back by the way by
which thou camcst," Captain Edrop
said in part:
These are the words OF the Lord God
of Israel delivered unto King Hezekiah
by the prophet-poet Isaiah They have
Il peculiar pertinence in this day and
generation. They need to BIO carried
once again into the hearts of kings
and princes; OF statesmen and mere
politicians: of poets and preachers
particularly of preachers
II took large measure of bolducss
to deliver such Il message as that a
man needed to be Supremely conscious
OF his divine appointment to repeat
those words to a king. But Isaiah was
supremely conscious of his divinely
appointed task. He spoke rs an oracle
OF God. Thus saith the Lord God of
Israel prefaced his message. There
was no falteriIIg. no hesitancy. Isaiah
was true preacher He made no COM
promises with evil He talked to God
and if he had any fear it was that he
would not deliver his message as he
received it. We have need of an Isaiah
to-day.
Great crises In human history pro-
duce great leaders. This is not an idle
statement. The record of human his
tory supports 1t. In the history Of our
own land we have the Virginia gentle
man who developed in.o the father OF
his country. We have the ungainly
homely Lincoln as the great emanci-
pitor. We have the schoolmaster
from the quiet walks OF Princeton who
developed into the apostle Of world
democracy.
