The Larger View

Politics, particularly when functioninf
thru Party, is Separatist, and emphasizes
selfishness, national vanity, and the whole
reactionary force.
The great forces that are steadily unity
ing mankind, that is, those that know nc
provincialism, are Science, Art, Music, Lat
erature, Religion and Business.
All these know no barriers, no race,
They are for mankind
The influence of Jesus is very potent, U
this direction, for He disregarded Glass;
Patriotism, and all other sectional basesI
and founded His ethics upon the Humar|
Race. His was the principal and the first
non-ethnic religion.
Inventions break down barriers. Steam
has shared with missionaries and educat rs
in the work Of removing the fences of pride
and prejudice between the races.
The Postoffice, the Telegraph, the Rail
road and the Steamship are shuttles weav-
ing Humanity into one fabric.
Get this larger view.
No nation can be saved alone.
No nation can permanently prosper alond
No nation can perish alone
We must save the World in order to saw
Ourselves.
Above all nations is Humanity.
The Seattle star. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1899-1947, 1919-12-26

To think soundly we need to get the
right view OF the Universe.
This means % clear idea Of History,

End or Final Outcome toward which man
kind is moving.
To understand the first two we must see
the last. Whittier are we going?
The answer is: Toward World Unity.
The progress is always from the smaller
to the larger unit; as, first, the Individual,
then the Family, then the Clan or Tribe,
then the Nation, then Humanity.
Whatever works toward Class is reaction
airy, going backward. Whatever is for HUI
manity is wholesome growth.
Even the War helped toward the goal,
