The Peace Festival

1t has been suggested that Seattle plan for some sort
festival to express the communitys JOY when peace Is
finally declared
Fine.
Who win step forth with big ideas. and group
capable and farseeng associates to do something worth
while on this historic occasion?
The opportunity is certainly at hand.
Last year the Seattle Girls Victory carnival pageant on
the university campus a happy affair The pageant
was worth while and artistic.
Something like that might be attempted. If 1t is not
too late.
It would be fine thing if Seatte's big symphony
orchestra could be interviewer in ambitious program
The Star doesn't know just what ought to be at
tempted But there enthusiasts in the community who
solve the problem Now the time for them to step
81 and do something big and worth while Certainly the
final declaration of peace much to all Of u.s. We
should express emotion in community endeavor.

Why Some Men
Are "Unbelievers"
BY THE REV. CHARLES STEELE

Staff Writer on Religious Topics for The Star.
Many sincere in their "unbelef"-but here arc
half dozen why most men don't believe In
God and religion"
FIRST-Tbey wflfuIiy reject whatever light comes
10 them. with the result that all light will be
shu; out from them. This is inexorable law OF
nature.
sECOND-Tb~y ignorant Of what the Blb1e
teaches They have studied H. largely because
they foollshiy imagined that religion strikes"
like lightning. instead OF coming 10 him In a per-
fectly normal way, 3 a result OF honest thought
THIRD-Tbey prefer the honor which CONES from
m~n-such political. social and business advance
ment often obtained thru the sacrifice of moral prn
cples-rather than the honor which comes from
God only. IL II pride which shuts out belief
FOURTH-They lack faith They will accept only
that which they and feel and handle. They
purely materialstic. They refuse accept the
testimony OF credible witnesses who have experenced
deep Joys Of religion They insist that ca(
be intelligence experience beyond their own
which In pure conceit
FIfTH-They living life Of sin, which they
unwilling 20 forsake They love darkness rather
than light because their deeds evil"
SIxTH-Tbey putting off the day Of dcos1nn
fw . convenient tim~, forgetting that every
passing day makes IT harder believe" And this
last class Ii in the perilous position Of all
They do not reject religion. they ignorant.
nor is IL matter Of pride do they lack faith.
nor are they immersed in sin-they simply wait

Helping Mother Ryther

For a long time Seattle has been resolving to put up
home for Mother Ryther and her big hungry family OF
kddes For years and she has been working from
early morning until late at night to keep her children
happy-and it's mighty big task when the house is Old
and needs repairs and isn't large enough for all the little
folks that live in it.
But Superior Judge Boyd Talman. and few OF ms
acquanancess have gotten together and resolved TO raise
the necessary $4,000 in two weeks drive beginning
June 6 The plan for the campaign hasn't been worked
in detail yet but it's time for bghearted citizen
in Seattle resolve help out Mother Ryther when the
opportunity
And if there any good fellows who feel that they
give $1,000 right The Star is sure that
w. Spangler Lawrence Coleman Judge Talman or
any other committeeman would be glad TO take the pledge
any time.
Mother Rythers Riddles must have the benefits of a
comfortable, healthy home It's just matter OF Seattle
folks digging down into their pocketbooks Don't let any
body keep you from enjoying the pleasure of contributing
to this big human. community project. Give and give all
you 1t will make you feel better

good manners and he groics to discover that the
