THE LAST FIVE MONTHS OF WAR

When France tottered on the brink of
disaster, end the war seemed about to end,
Eenito MussoIini plunged the dagger into
The back of his neighbor. II Duce un-
tubtedly expected Italy to gather her
share of the spoils with a minimum Of
sacrifice.
The course of the war has probably
surprised the Fascist leader but it has pre-
sented Adolf Hitler with a great surprise
also. When news came that France had
requested an armistice Der Fuehrer cut
loose with jig, to the delight of his en-
tourage.
There is every reason to believe that
both dctators thought the war had been
brought to successful conclusion and that
the new order" would begin almost imme-
diately in Europe.
The events since that day in June
have brought no confirmation of their
joyous thoughts of complete victory. The
stubborn and pernicious British refused to
quit their war and the battle goes on.
In the diplomatic manoeuvres, since
June, Hitler and Mussolini have scored only
mediocre successes. Despite their pressure
Spain remains aloof and looks to the British
to permit food shipments to reach Spanish
ports Bulgaria and Russia have balanced
on the fence and Greece has taken up her
own protection. Turkey gives no sign of
bowling to German demands.
The warfare, since June, has not pro-
duced decisive totalitarian victory. The
British drop bomb for bomb and refuse to
weaken their naval forces in the fighting
areas to protect conveys on the oceans. In
the Mediterranean the Italian navy fails to
protect the line of supply to Libya and the
fighting in Greece, to this time, is nothing
but an Italian disaster.

A DANGEROUS CONDITION

The shortage of fire buckets on
wooden bridges of Overseas Highway, re-
vealed by The Citizen yesterday, is a SUBJ
ject which should get immediate attention
from the county commission.
Obviously, it is difficult if not impos
sibe 70 patrol the bridges to point where
the buckets cannot be stolen, but equally
obvious should be the danger of leaving I'M
protected the sole means of travel between
Key West and the mainland. The long
string of wooden links in the highway rep
resent serious fire hazard and the de-
struct;on of any one of them, particularly
during the tourist season, would mean a
vital loss to Key West.
State and county patrols should make
every effort to see that the buckets are kept
in place and filled with water, but beyond
that it is up to the commission to have on
hand sufficient supply to replace the in
evitable losses. To close the highway, even
for day, would represent a terrific blow
to Key West both in loss of visitors bound
here and in the discomfort to travellers re-
turing to the mainland

RELIGION OF LIFE


Nazi Germany claims that the
world, as a whole, opposes the
every principle of Germany and
that by proving her strength she
can rise to a supreme place in the
world. This is possibly true in
every realm, save that of Re-
ligion. There must be power be-
hind the throne of permanent,
successful nation and the only
power comparable of standing is
the divine power of God.
The spiritual power that is in
culcated in the Christian religion,
is the strongest developing force
of the universe. We hold our
own, or slip backwards bit, un-
til time of peril, or a crisis, is
reached, then we ask divine as
sistance. And true to the prom
Use of Christ, "If two of us shall
agree on earth as touching any
thing it shall be granted US"
Matt. 1919. The aiding power
of God becomes prevalent. What
would be the outcome, if, in the
time of peace. Gods people should
turn to him? Here, the failing
Point of religion is found in fight
ing defensively the opposition of

evil and wrong. The American
civilization lacks offensiveness in
times of peace, allowing our peo-
pie complicated morality, so
when it is necessary to oppose the
serpent, it has grown very large
and is hard to overpower.
David failed to build a temple
for the Lord because Of constant
warfare. We are finding it hard
er to worship God without error
because, as the Church and edu-
cation grow, the opposing forces
become proportionably as large.
1t is time that our educational
forces and religious groups leap
ahead of the undercurrent of the
world James. the disciple, asks,
Can a fountain send forth at the
same time sweet water and bit

! We must, if we save our civili-
cation, take a concise stand.
Knowing the crooked shall never
be made straight, we must stop
giving in to evil forces and de
mand the respect of right, and
take with, David, Il have set the
Lord always before me because
He is my right hand, I shall not
be moved" psalm 1879.

Some remarkable facts concerning the
travels of the Rev. Lorenzo Dow, who was
born in Connecticut in TIT, are given by
the Christian Science Monitor. which calls
him the most travelled preacher of his time
When it is considered that he lived be-
fore the days of railroads or steamboats,, the
records of his travels are amazing.
When % years of age. he covered, in
70 days, 1900 miles, conducting 1S4 serv-
ices of between two and three hours each
This averaged almost 30 miles and three
sermons a day. A year later he maintained
the same average for longer period, cover
ing 900 miles in seven months. 1t is said
that he finished his tour without shoes,
stockings, or outer garments
For many years he travelled from 1000
to 10000 miles year. holding from 600 to
TOO meetings each year. He visited Eng
land and Ireland. and on one of these trips
travelled so miles and held nine meetings
in %, consecutive hours On another oc-
easion he travelled LOO miles and held 200
