DEMOCRAT SKETCH
 INSPIRES SERMON
Dr. Walker Describes Inn. pressiOn Artist Conveys
 in Armament Race

"One week ago I saw cartoon on the editorial page of the Waterbury Democrat which gave me furiously to think" said Rev. Dr. John 0. Walker. pastor of the Second Con- gregational' church in his sermon yesterday morning entitled, Good Tiding of Great Joy"
 Rev. Dr. Walker said in part:
 The artist had drawn a picture of a retail store window. There were decorations there that reminded one of Christmas. There was an attempt to give the place a festive air. Busi- ness was rushing. The doorway was damned with men who semeed de- termined to buy out the stock of the store, But when you looked a little closer your heart sank. The articles In the window were weapons of war, tanks, bombs, bombing planes, air. craft carriers, machine guns, and the like. The name of the firm was Main and Kill, Munitions" There was a notice which gave you to un- derstand that the sales were not made on a cash basis. Payments were arranged, the munitions could be paid for at later date. Now the men who were rushing in to buy were national types. The Japanese was the lead. General France was there and Herr Hitler and Musso- lini. Yes, John Bull was there and UnclesSam! The final touch was the wreath in the window and in the center the motto: Hell on earth, Good VIII toward None" It was a sorry picture and this Is strong lan- guage but was the artist unfair? Has he drawn false picture or a true picture? leave that to your own judgment. We are spending s." 100000 a day to help keep up the competition in the armament race. Christmas Is more than holly and mistletoe, 1t is more than Christmas shopping and the exchange of gifts. It Is a holy season. It is the season of Christmas joy and good Will, O! Christian love and brotherhood, oE Christian benevolences and witness. The spirit of our Christmas ought to find expression in the words Of one of the saints of the church. Lord, make me an instrument O" Thy peace, where there Is hatred, let me SOW low; where theye Is in- jury, pardon; where there IS doubt faith; where there Is darkness light; where there Is despair, love; and where there is sadness, joy"
