Feeger. He said: "It has said that

genuine Lutberanlsm nas sugnt chances to gather and bold into its i fold the English-speaking portion of our people, especially the young peoI pie. We are warned that we shall lose t our own youth as they become thoroughly Americanised. True Lutheranism and English-Americanism are eonsidered incompatible terms. This splendid gathering of young Lutheran people disproves the allegation. Rev. SehMlinger Speaks. ! The Rev, S.

PROMINENT EDUCATOR

Continued From Page One. in Europe anyway for the business; too many armed men. Bismarck said that the officers-in the army are always supposed to be for war. It is the business of the civil authorities to control them. Their business is fighting. "Strategy must always wait on diplomacy. This time it got ahead of diplomacy. There is only one victory that can come in ths war. I do not see myself how there can be any victory in military affairs. I do not see bow any act in this war can make any difference. It was from the beginning a drawn game. "There were half as many men killed in the battle of the Ypres as were killed in our Civil war. It is a hideous fact that nearly every family in Europe has lost some of its best members; that everywhere the Strong and fine have been slaughtered. One man In every three available for military service is gone, a thing that never happened before in the bloody history of the world. "There Is. a victory, the victory of peace. Who brought on this war? Nobody dare rise up and say; no nation dare say; no nation did bring it on. If you can find that any nation brought it on, we can easil prove that it was brought on by trickery. It wasn't so in olden times. Alexander the Great brought on all the wars he could. "The war will be over sometime. It won't be because they are out of money, because a nation has many ways of robbing its people before they realize they are being robbed- One way is by indirect, taxation. Nobody knows what he pays until he finds everything gone. "Another is by deferred payment. Just as long as a nation can borrow money somewhere it will continue to borrow. France in 1913 was the only nation that would lend money. The situation was simply appalling. All the world was short and all wanted to borrow. "The cost up to the present time is as much as all the farming land in the United States is worth; more than all the empire of Russia, all its railroads, farms and steppes. "What is the world's grimmest jest? What is the costliest failure? It is fighting war with war. It Is to bring

soldiers to fight soldiers, tt is piling up armament higher and ; higher and higher in the sacred name of peace or as insurance against war. : I do not mean disarmament. Nobody advocates that, for two reasons. Waiving the

reason that it would be foolish and

unsafe, there is no use in advocating this when it wouldn't be done. "The second reason is that every nation should have continuity of policy. "The war has cost more in another way. War in any form takes the best there is. the physically strong, carries them off. destroys great numbers of them, leaves only a portion of them to come back and leaves the weakest at home. The law of heredity runs like this: Like the seed is the harvest; feeble-minded breed feeble-minded the world over.

'This is the long cost of war. Every

nation concerned in this war ia visibly weaker, will have less initiative, less

moral force, less physical force, less

power to stand up for freedom, to

stand agalnBt the aristocracy of the

world, which is really the cause behind wars. - "One of these aristocrats in England

said that this war will not be fought in vain if it puts an end to British democracy. The war never would

have been fought by any or these na

tions if it weip-not for the man who

has something for nothing-

"In times of peace we have all kinds

Of reform movements: Work for woman's suffrage, against the entrenched privileges of the liquor traffic, against everything that is not divinely " appointed, against the state church in England, against the house of lords.

and against, the corrupt mode of vot ing.

"Men stand up in Germany against

things like the Invasion of Belgium

and the Lusitanla affair. When the nation is moving along it is not worth while to stand out very long against anything- This is the long cost of

war.

"It is our business to be neutral, because neutral means law-abiding- It Is our business never to send any

form of ultimatum- Mr. Bryan said

two years ago, 'There is not finality

among friends.' If you are dealing among friends, you can say a last word and be done with it. You can't

say 'take that or fight.' The answer of Mr. Wilson's first letter was not the answer of an enemy. It is with those who feel like Mr. Wilson the
