Degradation of War.

Specialization Of women, the last operation in let
ting down the bars of civilization, is said to have
been ordered by an anarchistc group in a certain
section of Russia. Women between the ages Of II
and 80 will not be permitted to marry and those now
married will be released from their obligations The
is all children till they IT years of
age.
If there is anything that can bring home to every
individual the reason why we and our allies are
fighting and stalking our lives and the proceeds of
labor to stop the mad conquest of the Hun it is
this word from Russia. It is true that the enact
ment has not taken place in German controlled ter
ritory. There is nothing at hand to prove that it
was inspired by Germany. We have it from various
that something this sort is being urged in
quarters in the kaiser's domain, but what has
been undertaken in Russia probably is merely the
outcome of the ignorance and depravty of those who
happen to be in control in the particular district
affected.
The point is that specialization of women is one
of the logical fruits Of such a war as Germany has
waged Substituting force for reason and barbarsm
for civilized restraint in war making tends to set I'D
destructive standards in every phase Of life Self
ishness and brute passions are unleashed upon the
world to work their will Where ignorance is
densest the demonstrations naturally are. the most
frightful Enlightened people, Of course, will. be
spared such spectacles Russia presents, but all,
whether participants merely spectators suffer q
moral deterioration or duIing of their finer sensi-
bltties
We are fighting not only to make the world safe
for democracy but to make it safe for all the cher
ished institutions which have caused lives to be
worth living. We fighting for the basic prin-
ciples of Christianity as they are applied to our
everyday lives
which they apply.
