A TRAVELER SEES

The Viewpoint of a Man Who Has Twice Circled the Globe. The outstanding impression of the observing world-traveler is the compar

ative diiTerence between Christian and non-Christian lands. In a way tremendous with significance, wherever the forces of Christianity have flowed, civilization and progress and rower have followed. So strikingly is this true that critical study reveals the so-called "worldpowers," whether because of their military, commercial or educational strength, to be Christian. Japan is far from an exception to the rule; for her recently acquired power and position have come, from adopting the arts and sciences of Christian nations; her weakness from a failure to acquire Christian principles and ideals. No demonstration is needed to show the dominant part of the church v fostering this growth of favored positions of the earth toa greater civilization. She is. and has been, the Go.i-given agency for the spread of Christ's kingdom among men. Through her instrumentality, the bright places of the world have been lighted. Without her, we in America might be of the caliber and condition of the mystical Hindu, the mediaeval Chinese, or the benighted African. The foregoing proposition is so commonly recognized that it will ordinari go unchallenged. At the same time, here in America, multitudes of persons are not onlv not supporters of the church, but by their easv indifference and criticisms are hindering the great work which all historv shows that the church has done. "He that is not for Me is against Me."

CHURCH IS TO STAND BY THE

companion star was actually seen in a telescope in 1S2: ill presem e had hern previously preijetod because of the periodic changes in Sirius,' positions as it traced out its orbit through 5;rice. s'it vim. Jut reaching over the h-i.izon at the time d our map is the tieat rlr.pcd planet Saturn, the second largest of the entire solar family. Jupitei- alone exceeds it in size. Saturn's orbit lies just outside that of Jupiter, and it was the outermost planet known to the ancients; for the planets Uranus and Neptune ate both modern discoveries. Saturn exceeds in Interest and beauty loth his larger and smaller hrothers. because of the rins, which he alone pos.-esses. Of course, it requirts a telescope, though not a powerful one. to see the rings, and the view then unfolded to us is unsurpassable. One sees a great gleaming ball surrounded by a bright ring, elliptic in shape. The ring is very nearly circular, hut we are looking at it more or less edgewise. On a. good nicht we soon make out the dark spaces between the ring and the body of the planet, where we are looking through, between them, to the black background of the heavens. Terhapa we can make out also a d irk line on the surface- of tho ring, marking the dividing space between tho two outer rings which at first appear to constitute only one. Within theso rings there is still a third ring, called the "gauze" ring, not visible in small telescopes because of the extreme attenuation of the matter w hich composes? it. The rings were first seen hy Galileo in 1510. but he did not recognize them as such. He thought they were appendages on either side of the planet and was unable to understand or explain them. In 1655 Iluyghons recognized their true nature and published his discovery in the form of a riddle. If hi discovery had not been confirmed with the more powerful telescopes which astronomers soon obtained, he would never have given the solution of his riddle and thus would have saved himself from ridicule. The third ring was not discovered until IS'O, at which time the nature of the rinps was a subject .of much discussion. The mathematician Maxwell showed theoretically that the gravitational conditions required that the rings be composed of small discrete masses and could not be either a continuous solid or liquid. This was actually proven to be the case by means of the spectroscope in the hands of Keoler. an American, who showed that the inside edge of the rings moved with greater velocity than the outer (dge, which puts out of the question a solid, rigid ring. The early days of January present jn opportunity for the observation of Mercury. Knthusiastic astronomers will have to arise before the sun and watch for Mercury on the eastern horizon, close to the place where the sun will rise. If

WORLD'S GREATEST CIVILIZING AGENCY

Federated Church Council Comes Out Strong For League of Nations and Peace

carli: to iki:st WILSON". '"The Executive Committee Federal Council of the Churches of Chri?t in America in annual session passel a declaration and resolution favoring the establishment of a leigu of free nations. Such a league is not a mere poral expedient. It Is rather the itical expression of the Kingdom of God on earth. The Federal Council calls upon all Christians and upon all believers in (od and lovers of man to work and pray with v:hole souls and out of the ashes of the old civilization may rise the fair outlines of a new world based on the Christian ideal of justice, cooperation, brotherhood and service. (Signed) PRANK M. NORTH, President. CHARLES S. Macfarland, General Secretary. Seldom has n gathering of churchmen acted In such hearty accord as did the executive committee of the Federal Council ir its annual meeting at Atlantic City in passing the ringing endorsement of Pres't Wilson's plan for a league of rations. Presented to it by the Commission on International Justice and Goodwill of which Pres't W. H. P. Fauncc of Ilrown university. Is chairman, and the Rev. Sidney L. Gulick, secretary. The executive committee enforced its stand hy the appointment of a special commission to go to Paris to bear to the peace conference its urgent endorsement of the league of nations. Those appointed were Dr. 1 M. North, president of the Federal Council: Rev. James I. Vance of Nashville, Term., chairman of the executive committee; Dr. Henry Churchill King. chairman of the Commission on the Church and Social service of tho Federal Council; Dr. Frederick Lynch of the World Alliance, and Hamilton Holt, editor of the Independent. Others names will be added before tho personnel of the commission is complete. Declaration. The war crisis of the world has pnssed, hut p. world crisis is upon tis. "Shall there be a common standard of right and privilege for all peoples and nations," Pres't Wilson inquiries, "or shall the strong do as they will and the weak sutTer without redress?" "Are we to lapse back," asks Lloyd George, "into the old national rivalries, animosities and competitive the usual horizon clouds are fortunately absent this sacrifice of comport will he fully rewarded.

.'armaments-, or are we to initiate the

reitrn on earth o: the prin e oL peace . The time has come to organize j the world for truth an! risht. j istiee ;and humanity. To this md. as I Christians we ui ue the i stahli-hme: : of a league of f r nations at the ! coming pe.-e conference. Su h a league is not a mere politiral ipdient; it is rather the political ej preinn of the Kingdom of God on earth. The vhur- h of th" inr.c (Sod rightfully tails for the creation of agencies adequate to enforce law. to keep order throughout the wo: Id. and to preserve the rights of the ! weak and helpless. Sehish and lawI less nations must. le rt strained. I Security and fair economic opportunity must be guaranteed to each by the united power of all. "The impartial justice meted out must 1 j involve no discrimination between mos 10 wnom we wrsn to ue just and those to whom wo do not wish to be just." These are matters fundamental to the rule ol the prince of peace. The world Is now so small, the life of nations so intertwined, the mastery of nature's titanic forces so complete, and the power of scl!ih, economic or nationalistic groups to enslave whole peoples and to bring tragedy to th entire world so dangerous, that the reestaMishment of the old world order of irresponsible states has become intolerable. We must have a governed world in which the security and rights of ep.ch shall rest upon the combined strength of all. Humanity must he organized on a basis of justice and fair dealing. Tho law of brotherhood must supersede the law of the jungle. A league to attain these results must be democratic in spirit and in. form. It must be capable of continuous adjustment to the advancing life of separate nations and also of tho world. It must he directed by th enlightened conscience of mankind. The heroic lead will have died in vain unless out of victory shall come a new earth wherein dwelleth righteousness. The church has much to give and much to gain. It can give a powerful sanction by imparting to the new international order something of the prophetic glory of tho Kingdom of God. What is the Kingdom of God, if it be not the triumph of God's will in the affairs of men, "righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit?" And what is this vision of a world-federation of humanity organized on a basis of justice and fair-dealing, for the effective and Impartial maintenance of peace, if it be not of tho Kingdom of God? The church can give a spirit of good- will, without which no league Firestone, superintendent. rrlmsry iohool meets at the sam "uour; M1m Margaret WLtlmcr. euperlnten-lent. tendent. llrt Church of tb Brethren Indians et. and Miami st.
