Dear Fellow White Ribbonars:

Lately I've been thinking a great deal about the Department of Peace and Arbitration. We have celebrated the Chrstmas Festival of peace and goodiwili which Christ came to bring t.) all people. lilay that Ipirit linger in our hearts and radiate to all around.

These days many people seem confused and almost, accept the inevitability of war. Fear seems to dominate their lives. Let us not be of that number. We read. "Per- fect love castcth out fear." "The greatest thing in the world is love." How earnestly we should pray for

ve.

Someone has said we must not be content with the negalivo luncfnri of keeping the peace, but with the positive task of creating it. One of the positive things we can do is to join the United Nations Assoc- iation. The U. N. will not he cl.’- pfeqtlye Qlnlll its represents, not gov nments. but peoples. Towards this end ‘we’ must‘ befinoving: We yet may see' what Tennyson called ,“Tli'e'_"‘fas:ln'esrleiif of thin-n", Science prdddctlori. mili-tfiarlsnl? wealth; are all futile to bring pear-o.

We are told that clghlcon million men are under arms, tvrenty-seven billion dollars a roar are ‘being spent by thirty-nine countries on warPWhat a colossal sum to use for destruction. while men, vromen and children die of starvation. A sad commentary on modern civilization. Rev. Bruce Gray after World War I said at ‘a League of Natons CgnfergnQQj."GO(I is love, war is hate. God is light. war is darkness.

“What is Canada's greatest evil?" was discussed at Immanuel Baptist Church by Rev. D. S. Calkin. He mentioned the labor strife as s great evil. and the atomic bomb. Mr. Calkin spoke of the galloping bankruptcy of the Canadian family as a great evil and peril, but said that the growing‘ consumption of liquor in our nation “is perhaps the greatest evil and peril we have to face today."

For the sollowlng reasons, Mr. Calkln explained why he hated liquor traffic:

(l) Because it is undermining the moral structure of our nation and people;

(2) Because it is the reason why men end wmsen. little boys and girls are not safe on the highways "idly. with liquor-drinking people driving; .

(I) Because it wastes material: “$000,000 spent for liquor in the Dominion during 194d. with only 015141004100 ‘Ipfint for education

things to counteract and stop this mighty peril.

"First. we need to wake up. Why did we lose prohibition? Because as Christian people we lost in- terest. Why are we in Nova Scotia on the verge or beer rooms and cocktail bars? Because we have not given our whole-hearted sup- port. The liquor interests have not been asleep. ,.

"Christian people need to awake t0 the need of temperance action.

Secondly. our church and tem- perance lodges opinion against liquor. We need to give our whole- hoarted support to the W. C. T. 0., the Sons of Temperance. the I. O. G. T.

"thirdly. we ought to have es our objective the closing up of the government liquor stores.”

THE TEMIPERANCI IIIDIIATION

The Temperance Federation is rapidly increasing. This is largely due to a rally held in Charlottetown at which the chief speaker was Rev. A. J. Langley. Saint John, and ducted by Dr. Coburn of Toronto.
