He thought that the cost was far in excess of any gain, “While we were probably justi- fied in going into that holocaust of fire and death, where ten mil- lion men died and fifty-six millions were gassed or maimed or diseased, we are beset in our reasoning whether we have been paid in grat- itwle by the nations we helped save,” he said. “The second part of that anthem might well be put first, for it is casual. Good-will among men brings peace to nations. Jesus came teach and give an example of brotherhcod. When we understand people of other nations better; when we have a friendly feeling for the heathen in other lands, we will not in all probability fight them. The flying machine, the movie, commerce with all peoples is an as- surance that we have a world brotherhood looming in the dis- tance and peace will follow Chris- tian brotherhood.” The Rev.

Nations are coning to their senses and 96 have debated their differences, finding peace instead of the sword. This old world is sick of beastly car- nage. Such writers as Philip Gibbs and Will Irwin have unmasked the beast of war and his baseness, and the Prince of Peace beckons us to follow Him.” Dean C. E.

COUPLE RETURNS HOME SAFE AS SEARCHERS SCOUR WOODS Considerable alarm was occa- sioned here last evening when Miss Helen MacDonald and Marce] Stra- gler, who had gone for a hike to the Treadwell ditch in the forenoon, failed to return by dark. At ten o'clock searching parties were or- ganized to hunt for them, in the belief they were lost or one or the other of them was injured. After hours of thorough search over most of the country between town ple: walked into town from the end of the Island at 2:30 e'clock this morning, 'and a signal from the fire siren ended the search and all the scouting parties returned, According to their own story, a deer had been shot at by Btragier and then trailed until the couple found themselves om the other side of Mt. Jumbo. They had: then come out on the beach at Hilda |Creek, hiking hom around the south end of the Island. Although pretty tired they seemed none the worse for their adventure. F. 0. E.
