The Union Guards

A NEW boys' organization has been started in Niagara Falls, N. Y., called the Union Guards. They meet together for a half hour for Bible study—for the study of the Gospel of peace—and then a portion of time is given to military training. Later the boys will be furnished with wooden guns and probably uniforms. This is but one of the many straws which show the increasing militarism of the age under the guise of Christianity and civilization.
