NEW YORK, Nov. io.--I have been
asked BY young wives coming to New
York to live: aIsn't IL lonely in New
York-is there any possibility OF
making friends?"
Yes, it's lonely. Where the lar5-
est masses of people are, it's lonely.
But among those thousands and
thousands of folks are some just
like you, craving for the company
of you.
Indeed. there are real folk in New
York. as elsewhere.

Rx DIR. ALVIN Y. BELL

November n. 1918. Is certainly
m OF the most memorable dates OF
modern times. The celebration OF
its tenth anniversary on the Lords
day suggests the fact that loyalty
to God. as expressed in religion,
points the way to loyalty to coun-
try rs expressed IN patriotism.
Our lesson is taken from that
practical section Of the epistlo to
the Romans which which Paul closes
that wonderful letter. In the first
eleven chapters of Romans Paul
deals with the great fundamental
doctrines OF Christianity. viz. con-
demnation because of sin, iustifica-
ton through faith in Jesus Christ,
sanctification in Christ. glorifica-
ton with Christ and restoration
even for Israel through Christ.
Life the Fruit Of Doctrine
Not until Paul has set forth these
great doctrines. which. in the open.
ing verse Of our lesson he refers
TO "the mercies Of God" does nc
turn to the practical matters OF
Christian living. and when he doe.
so. he connects the two directly and
in~separably with that characteristic
word therefore" which Is found In
all his great doctrinal epistles like
a golden hinge connecting Christ
ian doctrine and practice: Il be.
seech you therefore, brethren, b
the meTcies Of God. to present
your bodies a living sacrifice, holy
acceptable to God. which il your
spiritual service. Ard be no. fash.
toned according to this world, but
be We transformed by the renewing
Of your mind. that We Ia prove
what is the good and acceptable and
perfect will OF God" This sort OF
a life dedicated TO God as a living
sacrifice. is the fruit borne by ths
mercies of God. expressed in tbs
sacrificial death of Christ. So, al
ways. doctrine and life are connect.
ed as root and fruit.
Similarly. true patriotism must bs
rooted in and nourished by an ap.
probation of. the fact that our heri.
tage as American citizens has come
down to us through the lofty devo,
tion and supreme sacrifice of a lons
line of heroes who laid down their
very lives for our country. Their
willingness to sacrifice even their
lives for their country is our strong.

sacrificial death for our America de-
mands our sacrificisl living for
America. and shames any lesser con-
secration.
A Call Of Peace
Whether they we're too idealistic
or not. the fact remains that our
boys vino laid down their lives prior
to and following the first Armistice
day in 91s did it in the noble en-
thusiasm of a crusade to end war
forever on the earth. II therefore
remains for US the living TO highly
resolve that in that noble cause Of
world peace they shall not have died
in vain.
Let America. therefore, lead the
nations of the world by applying to
international affairs Pauls injunc-
tion in this lesson. If il be possible,
as much as in you lieth. be az peace
with all men. Avengc not yourselves,
beloved. but give place unto wrath

Limitation Of airships and their ornaments in any
ing powers Of the world within the next few years is
unlikely.
We must first agree on the things much more i'm
portant. such as was done at the Washington confer
cnce in 1921. where capital ships were limited. Aux
ilirry craft, such as cruisers, destroyers and subma-
rines. probably will be considered for limitation before
the nations of the world give serious thought to air
ships.
The airship is somewhat out of place at the present
time in these discussions because il is not primarily a
fighting craft.
Airships are important, but nevertheless auxiliary
to the surface ships as naval fighting craft. They are
extremely valuable for scouting and observation, but
at this stage Of dirigiblc development they can not be
very effective because Of their vulnerability to attaek
The airship is a comparatively easy target for fast
fighting planes. The maximum speed Of the dirigible
about IS miles per hour, is only about half that Of the
fighting plane.
Concerning the practicability Of arming airships
they may carry light guns and even bombs. but, in war
fare. because OF the danger of attacks. the carrying u
high explosives would be extremely hazardous.
The airship now must take a subordinate place IN
naval combat. We must wait for progress.
1t is strongly urged by some of the delegates on The
aerial armament. be considered with a view to agree
ment; but to my mind the airship does not yet war
rant this consideration.
