swept over the United States did not
at once eliminate in war. But tho
sinking of the Lusitania was tho
first of a succession of lawless deeds
of atrocity that aroused America to
the savagery of the German nature
and with 1t n growing realization of
the fiendish purpose of the so-called
war lords. Nearly two years elapsed
after the sinking of the Lusitania
before the United States entered the
war. But from the moment that tho
deadly torpedo crashed and tore its
way into the vitals of the great liner,
IT was rs certain as anything can be
that eventually America would strip
for action and plunge into the fray
to save civilization from the brutes
who made systematic and ruthless
war on non-combatnnts and women
and children. America foud herself
in the war. The lessons learned may
seem for the moment to have been
forgotten. But in common with the
rest of the world we are passing
through n period of reaction that is
as temporary as it is nerve-raclSing.
Presently we shall emerge with our
vision clear and unobscured and our
strength unimpaired by the fitful
fever which NOW has us in its grip.
The evcntful lessons learned in the
aftermath of the Lusitania tragedy
have not been forgotten in reality.
After awhile we shall remember,
cease our mad pursuit of false gods
and fix our eyes once more on the
hills in the distance, the hills of
God.- Roanoke Times.
