Learning From Life.

Pittsburgh Dispatch.
A man somewhat distinguished for
his labors in American religious af-
fairs a few months ago went to
France as volunteer, as he put it
TO friends, "to bring Christ TO the
French" and now reports himself as
a pupil instead Of n teacher lie

from life among the soldiers Of
France, and frankly acknowledges
the source OF his new knowledge. II
Is candor not always displayed by
a man VINO stands high In his chosen
work when he finds that all his old
views, preconceptions and theories Of
conduct prepared in advance were in
error.
TO young American military Of
ficer with whom the preacher talked
crossing the ocean, and to whom he
discussed his plans and motives, the
result was not surprising. To the
same young officer the distinguished
preacher said after a few months
experience among the French SOL
diers: Il came to teach; | go back

truths by their actions than ever
thought existed. l was wrong
they are right"
The preacher who went to France
with d definite idea and specific
course Of duty for the good of the
French soldiers, the expression OF
years Of experience in the field of
ordinary humanity, found the men Of
France different than they have been
pictured in pages Of frothy fiction.
They live real lives-heroic lives, but
1t is necessa - to be among them to
learn the force and beauty OF their
character. The preacher, who learned
more OF life's truths from the sim
pie acts of the soldiers Of France
than he thought existed, has made a
substantial gain, although his origl-
nal purpose was complete failure. He
won by losing, for he has high re

WILL TAKE TIME.

In view of the fact that, however
this war Is settled, 1t will necessarily
leave many sore spots that will take
perhaps centuries to heal, 1t is alto
gether too optimistic to expect the
end OF the war to bring about the
beginning of the brotherhood OF ma -
tons, there will be more friendly
and cooperative spirit than has
heretofore been known. but as for
some other nations. they will be dis
trusted. ostracised and ignored.
Al this distance from tho actual
conflict II In easy to philosophical
and TO prophesy. The idea of uni
versal peace and brotherhood Is a
noble one and one to which all the
world must eventually gravitato. But
there must be some healing OF gap
ing sores before II will be possible.
As France, for instance. looks at her
ruined cities. her devastated fields
and orchards, her ravaged women
and her bayoneted babies, how can
she think of Germany as brother?

specific reasons for this action are
not clear, but it is altogether in har-
mony with the Bolsheviki attitude to-

tent with giving the allies the worst
blow in the war by making a separ-
