FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH.
Rev. J. L. Keith Macleod, Pastor.

Divine Worship and Service Sunday
morning and evening-10.30 a. NJ
7.30 p. M.
The pastors morning theme will be
1.-The March of the Centuries" a
great thrilling story of what God has
wrought through ordinary men and
women. The choir under the leader
ship of Mr.. Souder will sing.
2.30 p. M, Bible School; Geo. H..
Adams, Supt.; Mrs. A. Risley, teacher
of Women's Class; Rev. ]. L. Keith
Macleod teacher of Mems Glass. An
old story from an old Book, How God
gave a Man a Chance. Then Man flee
ing for the City of Refuge" If you do
not go to any other Bible School, and
you come to see us, you will receive a
friendly welcome.
6.45 p. M, Young Peoples Meeting.
Miss Test and Miss Ruhl will be glad
to see all the young folks. Be on time
for a good time.
7.3O p. M, The Song Service for fif-
teen minutes, conducted by Mr.. Sou
der. The choir will give selections.
They are bringing wonderful messages
of gladness and cheer to those of us
who listen. If you enjoy music, come
along and hear for yourself.
The pastor last Sunday had the priv
ilege of speaking on A Religion that
will meet the Worlds needs. We con-
cluded that such a religion was only
possible in Jesus Christ. This Sunday
night the message will be as definite,
as personal, as individualistic, as pos
tive, on What is Christianity?"
A Japanese scholar said recently,
w see it has not been Christianity
that has failed, but you have failed to
express Christianity" Thoughtful
men and women everywhere are re-
examining their faith and trying to
search out its vital elements. Have
you any Christianity? Is it real?
Does it work? Is your Christianity
centred round, lived in, and through,
Jesus Christ the Divine Son of God
and living Redeemer and Lord of Men?
That is our message, and we believe
the message of every pulpit in our
city.
Go to Church somewhere on Sunday.
We will be glad to see you, and help
you, if you come to see us at any of
our services.

thrust upon this country, whether we
will or no. We cannot avoid it any
more than we will be able to avoid
participation in another war of the
sort if it should come. The men who
are vainly crying out for a policy
OF isolation are talking of a dead past.
Much more than half league behind
they are pursuing an accomplished
fact with flOuts and filings The only
question for America to decide today
is as to how it shall participate i'm
International affairs, whether in the
most effective or a less effective
way.
The radical equality talk of Senator
Reed IS hardly worthy of discussion.
That black and and yellow races
should be included in the league. is
OF course, desirable That they NAV
constitute a majority of the members
OF the assembly is unimportant. The
important work of the league is 10
be done by the council and not by
the assembly. Senator Reed sees in
this fact an admission that the as.
sebly is fake institution and with.
out value. That is not true. II is
necessary to have general body in
which all the nations represented in
the league should have a voice. in
order that no cause in which a single
one OF these nations might be inter.
ested should lack a champion. For
that reason it was right that the va.
rious self-governing bodies OF the
British empire should have repressn.

the intention of the article. Congress
would be under no obligation, moral
or otherwise, to accept the advice of
the council if it should ever attempt
to involve this country in any unwar-
raDted action.
I'VE want to say for ourselves
when we shall go to war;" cried Sen
ator Johnson. We shall, under the
| league and under the constitution
What one man is wise enough to sit
in that council at Geneva and declare
war for 1OO,OOO,OOO peaple?" he ask
ed No one man will do it. Congress
alone will declare war. The repre-
sentative of the United tSates on
the council will pretty nearly repre-
sent the sentiment of the people of
the United States. In the incOnceiv-
able event that he doesn't, congress
will disregard his action. And con
gress will control.
Senator Reed is against not only
this league of nations but any one that
might be devised, because it attempts
the impossible. He made the start
ling original suggestion that you can
not change human nature. If
Christ's sermon on the mount
could not change the spirit of the rob
Der nations of the earth in 1000 years
no league of nations could. This hui
man nature argument was probably
used by a prototype of Senator Reed
in some savage tribe Of precivilized
days when the suggestion was made
that it would be better for him to
settle his differences with his neigh
Dor by appealing to the judgment of
his chief rather than by fighting it
out 1t was probably made by those
who opposed the formation of courts
of law of any SORT. Perhaps you can't
change human nature, but you can
appeal to human nature. You can
teach men that it is wiser to settle
their disputes by legal methods than
by violence. If individuals can be SO
taught, nations can. Maryland and
Pennsylvania know that. The Uni
ted States and Canada know it. This
country and Great Britain have learn
ed it. 1t is preporterous, in this day
when Europe is closer to America in
most essential respects than Mary
land was to Ohio before the Balti-
more and Ohio railroad was built, to
think about and work for an extension
of the principle.
Times have changed Senator
Johnson argues not, for he declared
that there have been no alterations
in international relations sufficient to
justify any change in Americas ira
ditional policy of isolation. The great
war is the answer to that. The fact
is that participation in the AFFAIRS
of the international world has been

Holy See Advocates
Simpler Outline for \
League Of Nations

Rome, March l2.-The Osser-
vatore Romano, the semi-oflieial
organ of the Vatican, prints an ar
ticle on the league of nations which
is understood to embody the view
point of the Holy See. 1t says the
league might have been constituted
in a simpler manner" and outlines
the functions of the league as fol-
lows:
The setting of an arbitration
tribunal to solve international con-
flicts.
The formation of a society of all
civilized nations, including those
defeated in the war, which will
pledge themselves to submit their
differences to a tribunal and accept
its rulings.
The bringing about of an agree
ment to declare an economic boy
colt against any nation which re-
fuses to submit controversies to a
tribunal or which will not accept
decisions on matters which have
been so submitted
In conclusion the article recalls
that such a project was suggested
in the pope's appeal to belligerent
nations on August !. 1917.

Admitting Pope into
Councils Of League

Berne, March 12.-The Interna-
tional conference of league of ma
tions societies today drew up two
new resolutions TO be addressed to
the peace conference in Paris. One
favored the participation of all self
governing nations in the league and
the other was in favor of free trade.
The question Of participation by
the Vatican aroused much discus
son. Prof. Forel, a Swiss delegate,
opposing it on the ground that if
the holy see became a member,
Buddhism and other religious sys-
TENS would have tc be admitted, The
conference finally decided by a vote
of Is to 8 to grant the holy see
some voice, at least, in the councils
of the league.
During the discussion relative to
free trade the existing blockade was
sharply criticized as an insult to
international rights"

DEBS Defiant
after ACTION
OF U. S. court
Socialist Leader Bitterly As
sails Judges of Supreme
Court for Interpretation
of Espionage Law.

Terre Haute, Ind, March 12.-In
a statement last night Eugene V,
Debs, socialist leader, hurled de-
fance at the United States supreme
court, which sustained the decision
OF the trial court that found him
guilty of violating the espionage act
and imposed a sentence of 10 years
imprisonment.
Il am not in the least concerned
about what those bewigged, be-
gowned and be-powdered corpora
ton attorneys at Washington say"
said Mr.. Debs. II have not changed
my mind in the slightest, / stated
to the court at the time of my con-
viction that the law was utterly
despot and vicious. I despise it and
defy the supreme court to do its
worst.
"If, according to the supreme
court, the espionage law is valid,
then the constitution of the United
States is another scrap of paper.
The predecessors of the same court
affirmed the validity of the fugitive
slave law 90 years ago with the be-
lief their decision was final and that
chattel slavery as a result would be
perpetual. Within five years from
that date chattel slavery was dead
on American soil.
No Spies Caught.
Far more fragrant violations of
the provisions of the espionage law
in respect to free speech were COM
mitted by the late Theodore Roose-
welt, but he was not indicted.
Under the law l was convicted
for speech / could have made" he
hesitated.

wife, who had her arms about him.
yes" said Debs, and in Great
Britain, France and Italy, too"
1T is worthy of note" he contin-
ued, that though the espionage law
was allegedly designed to catch
spies, not one spy was convicted
under it. That reveals the animus
of the law, under which the United
States is made to begin where old
Russia left off under the car"
