So. from Moses down to John the Baptist. souls kindled by the Spirit of God saw the evils of their time as horrible in God's sight and were lnsplrl-ri to fight against them -with a supernatural energy that has ciiallgcd the course of history. when Jesus saw the worship of ms is house being corrupted by men. He took the law into ill hands and cleansed the lfritllic. He fclmd the zealots stir- ring up a revolt nganst Roman rule i"I'llCI'l He foresaw would be fatal. and over against their campaign of flow hate.

The men closest to God through the I-cntllrlea have been the strong- Pst opponents of injustice and inl- purity in every form, The Wes- lerall revival changed men and then changed all their relation- Fhllls. Social reforms and mission- lllr enterprises in the l9th century were the direct products of spiritu- al revival.

SPRINGFIELD, CIIAPAUD PAIusHES.- The Induction" of Rev. S. J. Armstrong. 3. A.. L.Th.. A. T. J. C. M.. will take place at St. Elizabeth's Church. spring- field, on Tuesday evening at 8 PM.

THE FIRST CONCERT of the Prime of Wales Concert series to- night will be under the disting- uished patronage of His Honour the Lieutenant-Governor and Mrs. Prowse. the Hon. Chief Justice T. A. Campbell. President of the P. W. C. Alumni and Mrs. Camp- bell. Premier J. W. Jones and Mrs. Jones. and His Worship the Mayor and Mrs. MacDonald.

SONG PUBLISHED - Mrs. Ruhama Schienfeld Prank receiv- ed word Saturday morning of the publication of her song. ”Lullab.v Prayer". for the Hansen Choral Library by the Charles H. Hansen Music Company, New York. A pub- lished copy of the song has been forwarded. with the musical set- ting by L. Marguerltte House. a personal friend of Mrs. Frank. The words and music are copy- righted.

a block for liquor when oppor-

tunity was taken out of their path. when the bars were closed in West Toronto. liquor was obtainable at a few minutes car ridetln thrge di- rections, but within six months af- tcr that measures went into efect dealers in the I ecessarles of life re- ported n sharp upswing lnstheir sales, and particularly in cash pay- ments. The automobile has made a difference; but it has not changed the principle .that with open (fears for drinking at every corner men will patronize them who would not go out of their way to get liquor.

Last week we spoke of the call to advance; here is one path of pro- gress. Cromwell matched the spirit of the Cavalier with the religious zeal of the Puritan, and he drove his enemies from the field. The love of money will drive men to great effort and the liquor traffic and other dealings in the weak- nesses cf men offer large gains What people will do for gain must be matched by what Christians will do for the love of God and love of men. The time has come for a march forward against evils established in our social customs and in our laws.

Thought: For Our Time

By His Eminence Cardinal McGuigan (Copyright), I

We have become so accustomed to the paradoxes which exist in the World of international affairs that we tend to disregard their full significance. This was particularly evident in short while ago when United Nations Day was celebrated. on that occasion all the modern devices of propaganda were used to mike people "United Nation

melons." At the same time. how- ever, the daily papers were carry. ing announcements of war and preparations. for war. It is diffi- cult to stimulate enthusiasm for the ides of United Nations and at the same time to be preparing for war among what are, in fact, til.- Ununited nations. While the success of the United Nations forces in Korea has been looked upon as a symbol of hope nevertheless there is every evid- ence that the world scene has not greatly changed. As a consequence the war machines of the western powers are being reactivated at a rapid pace and people are being gradually conditioned toward the possibilitles of a war. the like of which history has never rworded. There is no hesltancy on the part of the leaders in telling us that we are now engaged upon a. struggle for the preservation cf civilization itself. With the discovery of the atom bomb and its lnore awful successor, t.he hydrogen bomb. the issue is that of survival. to which all other issues are secondary. At this point it is only natural to ask how this had all come about. What has happened to the post- war plans? It is but a. shcrt time since we heard such phrases as "After the war the world will b-: recrdered. After the war men will get due recognition of their basic rights. After the war an era of peace will begin." The war did and and an era of rrcollstructioll com- nlellccd but. before the wcunds of war have been actually healed. men are once again thrcatcncd with the terrors of a world war and this time with the threat of annihilat- ion.

Are we to conclude that all the plans for peace. including the United Nations Organlzatlcn, were but idle dreams and that peace among nations is an Inlpossibliity? Obviously not. For the Christian knows that Christ came to this earth to bring peace to men of good-will and if only man would put his will ill accord with God. then war will not be a normal phase of history.

We have reached the present critical point in lntematicnal af- fairs. not because the United Nu- tions organization is a fantasy. nor because men too soon forgot the evils of war. but rather because there is little effort to attend to the one thing that really matters: the root cause of war. It is not a simple question of reducing the military might of Germany. or in time. of Russia. but rather of getting to the moral roots of the problem. It is not a ques- tion of our will, but of God's will be done. But. because we have been betraying our Christian ideals for so long a time, we are unable ln.a crisis to invoke those principles and so attack the pro- blems that confrcnt us. As a. re- sult we seek refuge behind the fragile facade of armed strength It is of extreme importance at this moment as our country enters into 3 period of warlike activity. to remember that the strongest army and the most deadly weapons can not bring about peace. They may be instrumental in staving off a terrible war but we will not thel--.-- by have victory. Moreover. if an- cther world war should envelop us and if in the long run we are able to trample upon the iron horse of Communism, even then we will not have peace.

Too long we have thought of peace as a mere absence of conflict. as 3 time when no great sacrifices were required of anyone. We have been wrong. To win lasting peace is even more difficult than to win a. war. for it will require a constant sacrifice. The state of mind that. is habitual on the eye of war-the

anything to avoid war-ls the proper state of mi.nd in which to end a war and build up the peace But this calls for a reversal of our ldeas. Because for us the return to normalcy means the return to sell- ishnels-the cause of all wars. Thr: price of peace is sacrifice. and either we must: WY this D1100 0T we are doomed.
