circumstances, according to old-fash-
toned folk, a declaration of war
against the offending government
would be justifiable, and that decla-
ration would naturally be followed by
an American invasion by land or an
attack by sea.
"What then, under the Norman
Davis concept of aggression? Why,
the United States would be the ag-
gressor, for there was no invasion of
this country by the other govern
ment's armed forces. 1t is unfortu-
nate that Mr.. Davis seems to think in
terms of France and Germany and
not in terms of his own country. But
he has been abroad a great deal of his
life and cannot be expected to look
at things as narrowly as those Amer
leans who, not being International
minded, subject all new proposals con-
corning war and peace to scrutiny
essentially domestic in its nature"

BOOK OF PSALMS

This book has been most appropri-
ately called the National Hymn Book
of Israel. 1t contains $50 devotional
poems to be set to music for worship.
These poems contain expressions of
the most varied feelings, covering a
range from the depths of despair to
the highest spiritual exaltation.
Praise, devotion to God, trust, conf
dence, thanksgiving, triumph, sorrow
for sin, humiliation, detection, dis
enlargement, encouragement, Provi-
dence, vistory over death, are some of
the manifold themes that find express
sion in this sublime liturgy.
Among the authors of the Psalms,
David is credited with the largest
number-seventy- being assigned
to him in the titles, while twelve are
assigned to Asoph; eleven to the sons
of Koran, two to Solomon, one to
Moses.
Each Psalm is arranged under some
topic which appears prominently in it.
About dozen of the Psalms are be-
lieved to be Messianic and hence pro-
phetic in character, referring to Christ
as King, also to His sufferings, resur-
rection and ascension.
There are others, like the eighth,
which refer to mans exaltation, or
the tenth, which describes his sinful
ness. The worldly and wicked are
dealt with, their estate of relative
peace and happiness contracted with
the trials of the godly; their seeming
prosperity portrayed; their ultimate
DESTINY nointed ont

ton, old age, vanity, home, home
sickness.
They also tell of the safety, the
glory, the love, and unity of the
church militant.
The Divine attributes are described
in this marvellous liturgy, not only of
Israel, but of the human race. Gods
wisdom, majesty, power, mercy, and
love are set forth in immortal phrases
never equalled in the language of
man. The heart of man will always
respond to the chords struck by these
majestic hymns, running as they do
the gamut of human sorrow and joy,
and revealing in divine symphony the
love, grace and mercy of our Heavenly
Father, accompanying US from the
cradle to beyond the grave.
The following Psalms will richly re-
pay the earnest reader who will take
the time to acquire their message.
1t is timely and imperative: The
first Psalm-the righteous and wicked
contrasted; the eighth Psalm-God's
glory manifested in his works, mans
dominion; the nineteenth Psalm
Gods law, its excellence and power;
the twenty-third Psalm-the Good
Shepherd; the twenty-seventh Psalm
faith sustained by the power of God.
To make an adequate list, one must
include all of the Psalms, as each one
fills its own peculiar place in this glor-
ious collection of hymns, old but ever
new.
In these days of testing our hearts
respond to the thrill of David's heart
when he lifted his eyes to the hills
and exclaimed: "Whence cometh my
help?" The answer for the poet King
of Israel and for US is the same: "My
help cometh from the Lord, who made
Heaven and earthi"
