death has become an unacceptable
reality, near, and not to be put out
of the mind. The old, who are look
ing on, and the young, who are going
out to- meet it, are thinking about
death as it was never thought of be-
1 fore. The soldiers of this war have
not the reckless indifference to death
that marks barbarism; they are not
actuated by the inspiration of super
stition, the fatalism of the east or
the blind faith of ignorance. They
are doing their duty as men and as
soldiers, but at the same time they
are questioning, thinking, believing
not what they are told-but what
they themselves feel and know.
And the same thing is true of the
wo.'ld at large. Religion brings its
comforts to many sore hearts; but
it is not the religious teaching Of the
churches alone which is upholding the
men and women of today under the
unspeakable sorrows thrust upon
them. 1t is something larger, more
universal, innate--it is the response
of the soul to the crisis of existence.
1t is the quickening of the spiritual
sense under the mighty forces set in
action by struggle to the death be-
tween the dead past and the living
present-between the defunct divine
order Of kings" and the living "divine
order OF the people,"
The stress of these appalling times
and the tremendous realizations now
coming home to humanity are I'M
doubtedly lessening the dread of
death as an individual experience and
making the separation of the quick
and the dead less complete, less hope
less. When the war is ended; when
its experiences are summed up; when
its results begin to be estimable, we
may at last find tangible and indis-
putabIe proof of what, through simple
faith, has always been the greatest
spiritual factor in life-the belief that
death is but the turning of leaf be-
tween pages finished and the next
chapter-that whenever or however
the leaf may be turned, the story
goes on.
