IN POLAND LET SLIP
Impartial Mediators Might Have
Brought It Year Ago,

Peace between Russia and Poland has
been possible Tor year. but its con-

rapid gains.
On July Z. two days after the letter
was written, the, Friends committee re

Libby, of Exeter. n. H.. who as head
of the European workers had his head
quarters at frankfort on the Main.
that because of military conditions

Friends workers.
In his letter Mr.. Walser said:
81 am taking a chance of getting this
letter through by the regular Polish
posts. which is renowned for losing let
ters. While ! write wagons of soldiers
and refugees with their belongings and
COWS. etc, are streaming past. down the
road to Zamose, due west of here.
~ do wish we could offer our services
to the League Of Nations or to other
parties for helping in any way toward
peace between Poland and Russia.

an eloquent discourse at the morning

This Is a vivid picture OF an ideal

Of realizing the ideal 10 was the
dream OF a devoted patriot for his

in the heart OF every loyal subject
for the land that has given him birth
or that he has accepted as his own.
I'VE are not concerned so much
about the natural beauty and mate
rial resources OF our great country
and they are exceedingly great-as
its moral glory, the essential thing
that makes a nation great. The
grandeur of any nation IS the express
sion Of the qualities that make in
dIvidual life glorious. Nations are,
and must be, amenable to the same
Christian ethics that govern the re-
latiOns Of men.
ReaCtionary Forces At worK.
our history is a source Of pride
and self satisfaction, but IN this fact
lies a subtitle danger. Reactionary
forces are ever at work and there is
danger IN moral inactivity. Moral
elevation, sustained by an active
Christian conscience, IS the strongest
bulwark OF national life: not extent
OF territory, not population, not
wealth, not a rich historical legacy,
not munitions Of war. not inteuectu-

1T is imperative that we should
