Crests and Hollows Of the Great Sea

In the World war human nature seemed to rise to

Unfaltering devotion to the highest ideals of humanity
seemed to be most marked among the nations that sut-
fered the most The most advanced leaders Of human
thought exulted in these splendid manifestations Of cour
age and loyalty. and many of them predicted that
humanity had risen to a level and would never
return the older and lower ways
1t did not take long prove that human nature was
not equal to the task of living permanently on the
war levels Soldiers and civilians suffered from reaction
The results of enforced discipline seen in lavess
Those who had been intensely and unirngly active
in works of charity and public service changed TO the
other extreme of incidence or selhshness. Amid the
pers of the nations turned to God in the safety
of peace they regarded the Devil and al his works
Undoubtedly there Is crime IN the United
that is dangerous TO the nation. Part of it Is tenn
porsry condition of the readjustment period following
the war. Part of 1t may be due TO relaxation OF the
moral tension of those upon whom the nation depends
for the maintenance Of its moral standards But when
all these allowances duly made it still remains
that moral health of the nation measured by the
immortality of the few but rather by the morality of the
many.
The nation Is still sound at heart. even tho the
