tions, some remain in the cradle
of infancy; but the hour has
struck when all must.a,Uake to
Gods law of progress, which
removes mental shackles and
enables mankind to throw off
the sensuous apathy of the
Adam-dream,-to awake from
ignorance and superstition and
obey the mandate of Life and
Love, Gods righteous law.
Blind faith, without under
standing, or a knowledge of
demonstrable Truth, has
clouded humanity, until the sun
Of righteousness has been SO
Iobscured that to-day darkness
covers "the earth, and gross
darkness the people," Isaiah
lx., 2.) Having eyes, they see
not, and ears, they hear not. To
the material senses, Truth has
been entombed for centuries
but Christ has always been on
the field and is now marshalling
his disciples for final victory
over the enemy of good. He
has rolled back the stone of
materiality the second time and
is rising to refute ancient
theories and forever break the
mental fetters. which have
bound mankind to- sin and its
penalty, death, the Adam-dream
in which "all die" q. Cor
inthians XIV, 22.) Omnipotent
Life and Love, the l AM, and
there is none beside, has en-
throned Truth in America
that Mind of Christ which is
every mans royal birthright,
and in which all shall ''be made
alive" The clarion call is
heard, Awake thou that sleep
est. and arise from the dead,
and Christ shall give thee
light" (Ephesians V. 14.) The
words of that noble woman,
Julia Ward Howe, are being
realized:
"He [Christ] has sounded
forth the trumpet that
shall never call retreat;
He is sitting out the hearts
of men before his judg-
ment seat"
The efforts to continue to in
cite Americans to hatred and
violence, which those who are
ignorant of the power of good
or evil thinking are making, by
holding in thought the senti-
ments uttered by Francis Scott
Key, viz, che rockets red
glare, the bombs bursting in
air" 'the foes naughty host, "
"the terror of flight and the
gloom of the grave" and their
blood has washed out their foul
footsteps pollution the eff
forts to perpetuate these senti-
ments can no longer be enter
tained against our Anglo
Saxon comrade of to-day, Great
Britain, nor against any nation
or people. In the words of
Alice Morgan Harrison, Amer
ica must lead the longing
world from phantom fears to
Loves unfurled Omnipotence."
Americas planted seed of po-
tent good shall grow to world
wide brotherhood, mans true
estate"
The efforts of those whose
anti Christian purpose it is
to estrange the two great
English-speaking peoples are
doomed to defeat. No alien
despotism shall ever impair the
guarantee given by our Decla-
ration of Independence, of
"life, liberty, and the pursuit
of happiness" mot liberty to
destroy our brother man, for
God is the Father of all, and we
are all brethren; not liberty to
trample upon Gods command
ments, "Thou shalt love the
Lord thy God with all thy
heart, and with all thysoul, and
with all thy mind" and "Thou
shalt love thy neighbor as thy
self; but the liberty Of the
sons of God," which frees from
sin and it's penalty, sorrow and
death, and establishes the true,
spiritual brotherhood of man.
Under the solvent of Truth and
Love, evil must finally dissolve.
If there are those who desire
to continue to witness "the
rockets red glare, the bombs
bursting in air." and the de-
struction and suffering which
follow, that is their privilege.
Their weapons of warfare are
