The Reflector -

.. The Power of .Woads

': . Heretofore we'were only 'spectators in 'the great war games of the world. Now y e are enlisted as active combatants in a fight for what we think,is right against a foe that is equally convinced of the rightness of its cause. It is a display of the co-ordination of man power and machine power and 'of the .super- iority .of intellectual power. The. end of the game will- bring 3 life-sized statue of a world carved by rr war god iilspired by. hatred,:jealL

' ousy, and treachery with big guns, bullets an& , .bombs as .his to+. The f i e r e s onJh~,~st$Ue

that represent: human beings mill be misshapen and bent as a result of the effect of the loss of confidence and faith of fellow mortals' in . . . one another.

Birr Euns and bullets alone cannot destroy confildence and faith. ' I t takes'lies spoken B Y once. trusted friends and . promises that are made. without intention of being kept. It takes: treachery hidden by bold 'fronts built up by vain words of peace and pledges.made for show which, in truth, only Conceal the am- bitious aspirations of conniving men. These slay the spirit the loss of .which is greater. than loss of'human life. It is the power of words! . ' . In .Christ's 'last stand in, this 'life. a t Fort Calfary he won a moral victory Over the forces of men by' the words of his merciful pnyer,

. "Father, forgive them; for they know nqt what they do." Christ's words are full of comfort, love, ' life, ' forgiveness, and salvation. They da not destroy life, .except the evil one, but rather they create life and.a new spirit. . They .established faith in God and tell of the beauty of the spirit of brotherhood:. . , :

' . In past history we have seen the $@ty'of war and today in our far:advanced civilization i t is an insult to our intelligence to try to settle our differences by,force.. Maythe coming gen- erations profit by OUT mstakes and build their world not in terms of lives spent in'dev&af; ing war but in terms of lives saved by pe?ce- .. ful arbitration., ~ '' 8 . .. . .

. . . . . . The Dilemma . . . . . . . of ':a. Christian

I

You and I are citizens'.of a .n+n 6t ,\vir. The question that'now faces US is, "What pml shall we'play in the mar?"

-The interventionist says to the ,pacifist 'IY& enjoy the same privileges of democracy that 1 do, yet you aren't willing to fight for them.' The pacifist in return replies, "Does war bring these privileges o r have other means been em. ployd 40 secure. them'.'? .

,Yes, 'it's true , that the Chhskan today ir faced with a dilemma. Paul says be subject tc your .government, but. the Bible also . sayr

, . "Thou shalt not kill." War is still killing ever though sanctioned by the government.. . . .

,' .The ironic.part of w a r strikes home wher we remember the slogan of World War I, "Thc War to'end all wars; to make the world safc for democracy.'' NOW we are engulfed in an

. . other'.world mar and with the spirit ,of hati and revenge so prevalent, we . . . may.have anothei

. . . . .

,vdrld :war for .the :sons o f : today's.'youth .to fight.
