n ny text is borrowed from that BIZ
N BILE verse according to which the
children of Israel were hidden

adventure TO Lnelr tate, not knowing
what was to go before and only the
crushing bondage of Egypt they were
to leave behind. Forward" was
their order, their marching order,
and they advanced toward and even
into the unknown. Thus setting
forth under the Divine impulse up
on the adventure of many centuries,
they yet live whilst the unadventur-
ing and afraid have failed to survive.
Daring all to lose, they have in this
divine adventure of two millennia
and more naught but gained.
In truth it is more easy for men
to understand the adventure of life
and death than it would have been
six years ago, for we have within
these years lived through the great
est of the adventures of humankind,
an adventure forced upon a world at
peace by those destined to be its
tragic victims, an adventure dreaded
at the outset and in the end solemn
ly welcomed by the peoples ventur-
ing all in the resolve to lead men
from under the shadow of a sword
ever brutally threatening. Adven-
ture has familiar ring in the ears
of mankind. It is no longer verbal
echo of long-forgotten things. Ad-
venture has ceased to be matter
medieval; it is become the very es-
sence of modernity everywhere.
Adventure may be defined in two
ways. or rather adventure is inter-
preted on the one hand as that
which happens, that which befalls
one; on the other hand it is that to
which one fares forth. The differ
ence might be referred to the differ
ence between two attitudes toward
life,-the attitude of him who is
active rather than passive, the atti-
tude of him who is agent and sub
ject rather than victim and object
of circumstance. The only life worth
while is the life of him who adj
ventures, the life in other words
which is self-determining and self
directing.
Does the bidding to men through
adventure to make of fate one of
life's circumstances rather than to
view circumstance as of the finality
of fate clash with the primary faith
of men,-"Thy will be done"? Nay
for this aspiration aims not to con-
vert mankind into mob of will-less
automata but rather to move men to
live and strive as If at one with,
even of, the Divine will. Obedience
to God never implies invertebrate
acquiescence in whatsoever is but
transmitting whatever is into unison
with the Divine purpose. God wills
not that will not; God wills that
will even as He wills, and that only
after I have done and dared the
uttermost shall I be ready to assent
with God be the rest"
Truly the whole of life depends up
on our interpret ton of the measure
and spirit in which man may adven-
ture, whether life is to consist of
that which happens to us or of the
temper in which we happen upon,
yea front and shape, life. To many
life seems but a lottery, some man
ner of game, and is lived by them
as if there were nothing more than
chance, and will were naught. These
view not life as race in which
men set out to reach goal toward
which they press throughout their
days nor yet as battle in which

of the spirit, not a place somehow
governed, but the adventure of them
that believed that men were fit for
self-government, that mastery ever
enslaves and that the freedom Of
self-mastery alone liberates. And
the essay of America fifty began with
that pilgrimage in the field Of col
: lective self-reverence and self-con-
troll the tercentenary of which is soon
to be celebrated, the pilgrimage of
those pioneering souls that adven-
tured from across the seas into the
very midst of utmost peril that exile
might thereafter be the lot only of
such as would enchain mems souls.
Truly it is not less meet for nations
to be equal to adventure than for in
dividuals. We have just recently
emerged, though not wholly victori-
GUS over death and pain, from the
greatest adventure nation ever
braved,- adventure which tasked
our soul, withal promised nothing
save the joy Of service to world-free-
dom. And 10, we are summoned to

may not again lightly be broken. It
is an adventure that calls for the
spirit, not unheeding but unafraid,
of the pioneers. The adventure Of
war and its sacrifice pledged us to
the lesser adventure of peace. Yea,
this may prove to have been in vain
unless we now dare to serve peace
by the side of our Allies as we joyed
to serve shoulder to shoulder with
them amid wars perils. How can
we hesitate unless we are to sink to
the level of the undaring who care
only for themselves, for their individ-
ual and collective security?
Death-Last of Life's Adventures.
The adventure of death may be
said to raise questions not unlike
those asked by the adventure Of life.
No life of high adventure can be
lived in the terms of resignation or
surrender at the end. Resignation is
to do nothing more than to give life
back at last as man needs must. But
the adventure of death asks more Of
me than that I let go that to which
I can no longer hold fast. Resigna-
ton is nothing more than an item
at the end, is, shall we say, the back
ground of the stage upon which the
last of this life's adventures is
enacted. I give back, but must do
more than give back the framework
of life given me. I do not resign.
Rather do I hold and cling to a
great hope. I do not merely suffer
life to slip and fade out of my grasp.

have elected or been enabled to in

keep my faith undimmed. If this
were all, and death were beyond
peradventure the end, still should /

ture reckoning in one form or an
other to all at the end.
For us it is, and most especially

primary faith seems much shaken,
to have new viewpoint, to take
new attitude toward death. Let us
