importance and it certainly binds everyH
nation entering into it to go TO war,
whenever war may be necessary to pre-
serve the territorial integrity of political
independence of any member of the league
against external aggression. 4
1T is idle to say that congress has
power to refuse to authorize such a war,
for whenever the treaty calls for a war
refusal by congress to pass the necessary
resolution would be n refusal by our gov
eminent to keep the obligation of the
treaty. The alternative would be war or
a breach of the solemnly pledged faith
of the United States.
1--WE cannot regard such a provision as
necessary or useful for a league to pre-
serve peace. e#
''We have reached the conclusion that
the true course to bring America into an
effective league to preserve peace is not
by insisting with Mr.. Cox upon the accep-
lance of such a provision as article 10,
thus prolonging the unfortunate situation
created by Mr.. Wilson's insistence upon
that article, but by frankly calling upon
the other nations to agree to changes to
the proposed agreement which will oblit-
crate this vital objection and other OBJ
jections less the subject of dispute
Concluding. the statement again quotes,
Senator Harding from his speech of Aug.
.2S:- .
q would take and combine all that is
good and excise all that is bad from both
organizations (the covenant of the
league)., -s .-..
We therefore, believe that we can
most effectively advance the cause of in-
ternational cooperation to- promote
peace by supporting Mr.. Harding for cleo
ton to the presidency"

4;2s, and thus explicitly sets Isaac be-
fore us as a figure of the believer in
the Lord Jesus.
And the first particular in which he
represents us Is his miraculous birth.
For he was born of divine power, con-
ttary to nature. OF his father II is
written: "He considered not his own
body now dead, when he was about an
hundred years old. neither yet the
deadness of Sarah's womb" Under
such conditions was Isaac born.

your name, my fellow-bellever, and II
IL mine. II describes not us but lays
bare the heart Of our God.
3. And of this child, thus born and
bringing such gladness TO his father, II
is written that Abraham gave all that
he had to him. That vast estate, de-
scribed In Gen. "a, made over without
reserve. And II "is written for our
le' ing" faint shadowing forth Of
our riches In Christ. "He that spared

pie should live like beggars when all

for present enjoyment as well as for
the future.
4. With these facts relating to Isaac
known, we are not surprised at his per-
sistent dwelling In Canaan. He never
leaves the land. Canaan was good
enough for Isaacl Is II for you? Ca
naan is the well-known figure of that
place TO which, in Christ, God has
raised all his own "He hath raised us
up together and made us sit together In
the heavenlles In Christ" and his con-
stant appeal to us is to be there In
heart and mind. II Is the place of our
blessing. for "he hath blessed us With
all spiritual blessings in the heaven
lies" Isaac, dwelling in Canaan, shows
us the child Of God abiding In the
serene enjoyment of his God given por-
tiOn.
3. In Canaan. Isaac is found by the
well of springlng water. And here,
again, is a holy symbolism which the
Lord has interpreted for us. "a foun-

water" There is no mistaking II;

No one In the whole world-and
least Of all, Waring and Oullen-couid
have remotely fathomed the thoughts
that were eddying in Hilliard's brain.
They were not for his own aggran-
dixement; they were for the Cullens
and Durants and for the others who
need never know the acid Of disillu-
sionment They were for the ideals
he had struggled toward: they were
for the friends who had stood by him.
And there was one very especial and
very manly thought for Jack Arm
strong. who had been so courageous In
his defeat. and so neutral In his be-
havior afterward, and who now had
sent the generous news winging east
ward. with the request that Hllliard
should learn at once Of his vindica-
ton.
And as Hillhrd sat there. smiling
out into the silent room, and strug-
Cling to visualize the extent Of fortune
which had so abruptly smitten him.
there was a dry murmur from the bed
where Harmon lay, and q resulting ST.

the smile faded. and Hiiliard was on

horror brought back to him.
The physician was rising slowly from
