Special music appro- priate to the day was well chosen and contributed toward. the beauty and dignity of the service. The offertory solo was given by Miss e, | Mae -D. Torrance, who sang for Mrs Story, and the offering was taken for the United Workers, as usual, and amounted to $24.93. - Rev. Dr. Howe presented a thought- ful sermon upon the relations of war and civilization. His text was taken from Ecclesiastes 1:3, 2:11 ang 4:1. “What profit hath a man of all his la- bor :which he taketh under the sun? ‘Then I looked on all the works my hands had wrought, and on the labor that I had labored to do; and there Was no profit ‘under the sun. “So I returned and considered all the oppressions that.are done under the sun; and on the side of the op- pressors. there was power.” These are the words of a king of ancient times and -his: description of the civ- ilization- of that time. There - are many -definitions of civilization due to different ways of looking at 4t. It has been treated in its social and insti- tutional aspect by some, and in its in- dividual aspect by others. Mills de- fines it as whatever gives us escape from barbarism and presses the ‘race ‘towards culture, self-control, self-de- velopment, refinement, and makes for progress. It is the sum of the frults of human- progress. Some writers treat only the material progress, and think of man only as a healthy animal. The ideal of one country is wealth— a meang of life. That of another is militarism, while to still another it may be the humanization of man. This dazzling idea of civilization as a promise of pleasure, comfort, refine- ment. social glitter .and intellectual adornment has been over done and has not proved an escape from barbarism. Barbarism may withdraw from. the outer life. while the savage still lurks in the inner man in both mansion and hovel. Versuvius still rages be- neath the vineyards and orchards on its slopes. The finest civilization you know _has - pandemonium - at its heart if Christ is not its mainspring, says the writer. Another says that civilization has m parts—the spirit of a ntleman the spirit of religion. the re- latlon of civilization to war depends upon the kind of civilization. The civ- ilizations of the past were mainly ma- terial—man’s creations. K The Assyrian and the Chaldean aimed to beco: and artistic leaders but their civilization was honey combed with social vice. There was no ministry to man's deepest wants either. Angd the civilization of modern Europe is not much better. It has not proved redemption. On the other hand, war may often be in defence of civilization. Many times it has been a defence from barbarian | invasion or a deliverance from-tyrany. & 5 you freely.
