A Prayer:
Grant us now Thy peace, Good
Lord, in righteousness and strong en
deavor and in love; that all nations
of men that dwell on the face of the
whole earth may be one, as, Thou,
Creator Father, art one; that by the
exhortation that is in Christ by the
incentive that is in love, by the fel
lowship in one spirit, by the prompt
ing of tender mercies and compas
sion men may be of the same mind,
having the same love, of one accord,
of one mind, doing nothing through
faction or through vainglory, but in
lowliness of mind each counting oth
ers better than himself; not looking
each to his own things, but each also
to the things of others; that the same
mind may be in us all which was in
Christ Jesus, who for us sinners
meekly put aside His heavenly glory,
and for the love of men became man,
and was among us as one that serv-
eth, who humbled Himself, even unto
death, yae, the death of the cross, that
we, practicing His humility, might
be exalted together with Him, who
now liveth and reigneth with Thee
and the Holy Ghost, ever one God,
world without end. Amen. C. D. C.

THE PRAYER CORNER
“THE PEACE TREATY’
If the attempt to defeat the Treaty
succeeds we shai^ be left without allies

war. If it needs amendment, that can
be made bJy confenende with our allies
much mor^easily thav by new nego
tiation with gwvernme/nts more or less
embittered by\iur speech and our
actions.
