Woman is the custodian of the

have made her 'heady.' She presents
a new problem in faith.
Feminine unbeliefs are more difficult
to meet than their masculine counter

has developed passion for a life of

she hungers for the fruit Of the tree Ill

The Rev. Mr.. Runciman defended the
brotherhood of man and urged tho

said. Ten years ago Europe was the
most prosperous and incomparably the
most interesting continent. To-day the
eastern half of Europe is swept by fam
inc and plague and central Europe Is
little better than a stagnant inland sen
of exhausted mult!tudes. The west Is
bankrupt, the workmen clamoring for
work and the fruits of their labor, for
which war has killed the demand.
1T was the climax and the harvest
of the old order. which before the war
made foreign relations unsound in Eu-
rope and Asia. The grave error lay In
imagining thai the prosperity OF any
one nation could be attained through
the misfortune of its neighbors The
alteration of force and belief In super
