(Continued from Page 43
See that you aim at nothing less than the stature of per- feet manhood in Christ' and, you will, no more bo a Kra33- hoppar in your own sight or that of others. “With God's halp passible," is the motto for you. and nothing meaner.
The late Lord Kitcheneria said | [to have received ‘onca from a
subordinate à long explanation: why a certain order could not be carried out. The general listened to the end and then remarked, Your reasons for not doing it are the best I ever heard: now go and do it." Does not the same rejoinder often make itsell heard in our own consciences when all our excuses have been {tabulated ?
The same principles apply in the application of Christian principle on any serious scale to: practical affairs. Without cour- age it is never done, for there is never any of formidable reasons). [to the contrary.
Yesterday's news was that n body of prominent Landoa business men are appealing for funds for an active propaganda in favour of the League of Nations on the ground that it has become
absolute necessity AN. A businesa proposition, and is the only alternative to another war which would utterly ruin the in- (dustry and commerce of the whole of Europe. That is good reading. It is always good to find practical; men making the discovery that the Kingdom of God is the most practical thing in the world, in this case that the choice looks like being between the Kingdom of God and no world at all. Fear of general collapse is urging us farward on the path we ought to have taken long age, and nothing is needed for is more distinctly than continued courage, for there are gigantic hindrances in the; way they will never be overcome if the grasshopper view ci possibility is adopted. "It can be done," is said to be the motto: exhibited in all the offices of one) of the greatest of American trading corporations: i: js A Dne motto, for trade. or Christianity, or international. politics either. Nothing can be more clear than that the present generation is called upon to willi determinedly and act boldly tom ward the happier social conditions and nobler international relations which every sane person not only admits are greatly to be desired but is coming to see must verily, İbe established if only for self-
preservation's sake.
With God's help possible," is what we must resolve, as Caleb and Joshua did, Their words brought them a shower of stones at the time, but they lived to see them come true, and I have hope that those who to-day are young) will live 10
ideals 402 (which some of us have been trying to uphold all our lives in face of unbelief and contemp:} practically bodied in the affairs) of life. For I think there is ground for applying the acute observation of old Caleb to certaini of the gigantic bindrances which we see today. Their defence} is departed from them." said he. and the Lord is with us." and well he knew that better a God- defended grasshopper than a God- deserted giant. The hollowness
of much that had made itself) great bas met with telling exposure in the events which of late hare sbaken the world. Mankind has bitter rega#03 to distrust the methods of force and maveritisit which have brougEYİ us to our present pass. We are! coming to perceive, however im- perfectly, that instead of deriding| our ideals we must put forth oar utmost efforts to get them em-) bodied in practice. It can be done. If there is enough will, the way will be found: if not, there is another long ture in the old wilderness for our poor humanity. The League of Nations and all that bangs on it is but one illustration. Endless others might be given. Too long we bave let curseires put up bopelessly and Himoofbusly with what are called irremediable:
