Both Peace and War

SEVERAL popular writers are busying themselves, in these days, writing stories for the magazines, as well as the daily papers, in which they picture invasions of this country by great victorious armies. Of course the only object in such writing would be to stir the nation to a vigorous preparation for war, so that they might repel any such attacks.

There are also notes of peace sounding. The voices on both sides are waxing louder and louder and stronger and stronger.

Without question, there are true patriots and very honest men among those who are urging so strongly these war preparations; and on the other hand, those who are advocating peace, doubtless have the conviction that they will be able to establish perpetual immunity from war. But lest we be confused by these conflicting voices, we should carefully study the prophecies of the divine Book, so that we may know what will be the outcome.
