New Armistice Day Mood Greets Anniversary This Year Deep-Flowing Passion For Peace Animates All Peoples—Emergence Os “Moral Equivalent F o r War”—Bible Puts Fin ger On Need Os Hour.

By WILLIAM T. ELLIS Back from the trenches. I was [in Boston when Armistice Day dawned. 1 had spoken in SpringHeld tlie evening before, ut a great meeting wherein I found the families of hoys I had helped bury in France, and whose heroism I hud told in detail. Spent by the strain of the ordeal, I was sleeping late when awakened by the sudden outburst of whistles and horns and other Indescribable commotion. Half awake, there (lashed into my mind, unforgettably, the words,' "Thanks he to God, Who giveth us j the victory through our Lord Jesus | Christ." All <lay as I moved amidst ; the frantic throngs of joyous celebrants, that text was in the hack. 1 ground of my thinking. I then be-j lieved. and still believe, that it was ; ] the principles of the Master for! [ which the Allies were conlident they were lighting, that gave vie-! lory to our arms. Not for an instant did I then! I dream that it would take so long i for the lessoii of the war to he 1 learned Sixteen troubled years i have passed, and we are still connj ing, in a stern school, the conse- . quences of tlie world war. Direct- | ly or indirectly, tlie economic depression is an outcome of that I titanic struggle. And it seems strange that only [now should we he getting round : to unmasking tlie munition-makers 1 and warmongers, the propagana j liars, the business-controlled states- ; men and the other baser forces 1 that were controlling forces in the conflict. Perhaps so great a ! lesson needs ft long tim> for its [ learning. The price or peace is 1 ! worth all that it lias cost ns. And peace the masses of mankind are j determined to have. Before the eyes of all discerning statesmen stalks the grim alternative of: peace or revolution. Is War Imminent? j Does that sound brash? Am I not aware of the sabre-rattling to ; be heard in Europe and Asia? Have j : ( not read the countless prophecies 1 of wiseacres that another world war is inevitable and immnent? j Have 1 forgotten Mussolini and Hitler and France and the Japanese war lords? Do I not know that the nations are more fully armed than in 1914? All this I know If 1 were a wa-ve-watcher I would expect civilization shortly to be engulfed. But my business is to study tlie tides, not the waves; and I see. all around the horizon, a rising tide of the will to peace, of a purpose to he done with that futile anachronism, war; and an earnest quest for some new order of life that will forever remove the nightmare of armed conflict. At long last the mind of the masses has turned biterly against the war spirit. Real statesmen perceive this. Mustapha Kemal Pasha, the dicta tor of Turkey told me, with in. tense feeling, that no true statesman would dare today to lead his people into war. Last of the sttrvi- | vors of the great war leaders, Lloyd [ George has lifted up his voice in confessional conviction tbat civiliization must be saved from another war—and that the preachers of the Gospel, must bear a primary j part in saving it. The New Will To Peace Belatedly, others are seeing, with Lloyd George, that the real [ preventive of war is more vital pro j sentation of Christianity. I am not j a pacifist; for 1 cannot find that i the Bilile teaches pacifism 1 regret the extremes of anti-national-ism into which many preachers and students have been led. But, out of whatever knowledge and conviction I have been able to ac- 1 quire, 1 believe that another world war is preventable and needless; and that the supreme measures to be taken lie within the proper scope of religion. On every hand I find a purpose of peace with roots far deeper than the efforts of professional peace.promoters and pacifists. The mind of the masses has been profoundly affected by the accumulated evidence that war is usually made by interested persons, who ********* ********* * The International Sunday School Lesson for November 11 (Armistice Day) is: "The Christian Citizen." — Galatians 5:13-26. ********* ********* I

| themselves Incur no perils and are ! assured of personal profits. Also ■the big crowd of folks have slowly come to un understanding of many of tlie far-reaching consequences of war. They now so that It is a fool's game, in which the players are mostly pawns Above all, there has gradually grown the convic. ! tion. fostered by the various forms of social propaganda, that human- • ity is entitled to 11 netier world ! Ilian the old order of which war was as expensive an 1 hurtful a i part. Flowing together, n multitude j of streams of influence have bej come a veritable tide of peace. “A Moral Equivalent to War” Dr. William James. Hie phtlosni pher long ago declared that what | tin* world needs is a moral equivalent of war"—something that .will [ give scope for tlie heroic, sacrifi- ! cial, adventurous loyalties of tlie I ruce. Exactly that is provided by I (lie Bible's program for a new life j of liberty, freedom, self-control and j service. Fresh fearless and open minds' are needed to face iiie tru,h that ' what tin- world lias newly been seeking lias ail tlie while been I waiting in tin- Scriptures It would lie more flattering to our modernity if some "brain trust" had dis- ! covered a novel way out for tile; world. But the best that our vauntetl new philosophies cun 00 is but ! . to lead its up to tlie steps of tile altar whereon is Inscribed, in tlie words of Scripture, " Thou shalt love thy neighbor us thyself." A | new law of life definitely meant to lie practiced by mankind, is laid down in our Lesson. We shall get away from tlie jungle code which 1 has so long ruled mankind only by an acceptance of the Christ code. This is more than a program I that tlie Bible offers, more than a set of desirable rules, it is a new , way of life, a transformation of nature, by the substitution of the Divine Spirit for the'oJif.self spirit ■ Tliat means empowerment as well ! is guidance. Clear beyond any jnis- ! understanding is the Scripture’s ! teaching that God gives enabling I to all who obey His law “Walk by ! the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh." New natures instead of old are the grand offer of this Book. The Path To Peace Here it is summarized by Paul, writing to the Galatian Christians, who dwelt in what is now Turkey: "The fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, meekness, self-control: against such there is no law. And they tliat are of Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with tlie passions anl lusts thereof." Both kinds of peace, which make life really livable-—inward, spiritual peace, and peace in all outward relationships, are the heritage of those who live by the Spirit. Tnis is the path to peace — peronal peace and world peace— and there is no other. Selfish, greedy, hate-filled ind: viduals are those who, in the aggregate, make the mass-mind of war, we must have a new order of human beings. Even tlie prevalent anti-war mood will not continue
