I'VE have the worst prospects I
ever saw for a corn crop" said
Negley.
Rain and cold weather, alternated
by one week of intense sunshine
that baked the fields, have caused a
very late season. Many farmers
have worked all day each Sunday
this month in an effort to get their
corn planted or cultivated.
The crop will be late, Negley said,
and unless frosts come later than
usual this fall much will be ruined
then. Many farmers have. planted

NOW IS THE TIME
TO PREACH GOOD
WILL TO NATIONS
DR.. PhiIputt Draws Timely
Lessons From Fourth
of July.

ut is high time men and nations
were listening to the counsels the
King of Peace DIR. A. B. Philuptt
said Sunday at the Central Christian
Church while preaching on THE He
roism of Peace"
1--WE need spiritual armament
rather than material. the force of
good will and brotherhood in place
of high explosives and poisonous
gases" DR.. Philputt said.
This is time to preach and to
practice good will to nations" he
pointed out IF we preach brother
hood and yet back up big business
in its exploitation of the resources
of weaker nations the United States
viii stand among the nations with
a furnished glory.
1.-TWO centuries ago. the English
philosopher, Hobbs, said that war
was mans natural condition, and
that peace is only an interlude. The
mounting war budgets of Europe and
America would seem to favor his con-
clusion. The Church of God must
stand like a wall of adamant against
such philosophy or be disloyal to
every statement and implication Of
the teachings of Jesus Christ.
War Means Wounds
No one denies the heroism of war
nor that it has welded tribes into
States and States into empires. 1t
has 1eveIoLed some great human
qualities. The soldier faces the last
extremities, hunger, wounds, torture
and death, the last full measure OF
devotion.
But war means wounds, hatreds
and ferccity, the sack ofstowns and
the making of widows and orphans.
It's arms are the instruments of
torture and it's purpose is the
Slaughter of mankind.
Man is a fighting animal, but
what and whom shall he fight?
There ere problems economic and
social, scientific and personal that
REQUIRE the highest type Of devotion
end sacrifice.

nected with war that may not he

II OUGHT to he Then. Why war?
There is a better way. The prophets
of old thought so.
Where Will We End?
"They spoke of a time when men
should beat their swords into pillow
shares end their spears into prun-
ing hooks. In the name Of God when
will that time come at the rate we
are going?

The Apostles counsel is wise and
