Divorce in the United States had nearly

Quarterly Review has Justly pointed out,
this war is only the honest and outward ex-
preston of that spiritual strife in the soul
OF the nation to which in peace time the
corrupting principles Of commercial greed
had legitimately led.
Peace says recent writer, has its
cruelties no less than war. The world was
sick Of a surfeit Of wealth and ease on the
one hand and Of envy and desire or the
other. We dreaded the advent of the Aneel
Of Death. But it may be that he has
brought healing in his wings
This war is laying the foundations Of a
new Europe. Just as the wars of Rome de-
stroyed Jerusalem to make way for the
Christian Church; just as the Roman EN-
pire in turn was swept away by the wars os
the bsrbarians to bring in the Catholic
Church; just as the wars Of the thirteentb
century (heralded by the Black Deatbl
swept away one-fourth Of Europe to intro
duce the Protestant era of nationa,
churches, so to-day this war has come to
introduce new world in which science
shall become a new ally to the old faith and
democracy learn to govern itself:
Till crowds at length be sane and

foretell that issue. AS far back as 1909 Mr..
G. f. G. Masterman, Liberal NJ p, had
forecast the inevitable necessity of an Euro
pean war:
"A life in which there are no high
