WHAT SHALL WE CALL THESE?

THE Christian Work of January 6 says:—
Happily the opening of the year again finds the world at peace:
Nor war nor battle’s sound Is heard the earth around.
But how long shall this be? That depends upon the strength of mutual interests which will prevent conflict. By and by it will be a question of the application of the Golden Rule to the conduct of nations. That will mean the ushering in of the “Age of Gold.”
But what shall we call the state of things in Cuba and in British India and in Africa? And what shall we call the vast amount of strife almost as wicked as war? God’s age of righteousness and peace will be a far different one from this. The world will not be found at peace till Christ, the King of Peace, shall reign.
