We can comprehend how the Jeer
ing, leering soldiers, standing before
the Cross upon which the Son of God
was crucified, failed to realize the
meaning of that hour, and to under
stand that He who hung upon the
Cross was indeed the very Son of
God. and therefore we can see how
they could be unmoved even by the
physical agonies of the Crucified One.
since* their hearts had been hardoned
to human suffering.
We can understand how the Phari
sees might have been unmoved by Cal
vary's awful hour, and bow the very
disciples themselves did not fully, un
til long afterwards, grasp the trenpTed^
dous truths which found expression in
the djpath upon the Cross of the Sav
iour of inanklnd.
Hut we cannot possibly comprehend,
even in the slightest degree, how any
man or woman, boy or girl, whose
mentality is sufficient to keep them out
of the insane asylum, can face the ter
rific, the unspeakable and unvoiceable
agonies of the last three and half
years without having their souls bow
ed with grief andftheir minds and bo
dies quickened to concentrate and con
secrate their ^1 to saving this coun
try from the possibilities of the fe ful
agony which threatens us. ,
As our people stand before the Cross
of humanity upon which not one but
millions of men have died for others,
as ttaey see upon a thousand battle
fields of Europe men shot to pieces,
the rivers choked with the bodies of
the dead, with advancing troops mar
ching over the shattered bodies of
their comrades who had preceded them
as they see the soldiers of the Allies,
and now our soldiers living month af
ter month and stretching now year af
ter year, in the intolerable trenches,
full of mud and rats and sometimes of
dead men. continuing to meet the on
slaught of the enemy; as they think
of the hundreds of millions of mothers
and fathers and wives and sweethearts
sons, and daughters bereaved with a
sorrow which has engulfed the world;
as tlicy see millions and millions of
men ;:nd women and children stretch
ing out tiieir gaunt hands for food,
pleading that they may be saved fro'm
starvation while millions have died by
the wayside of cold and hunger, Is It
mi mi mil mini ill llliPilUllllll'i lU
be unmoved by the3e awful scenes of
agony?
Can any soul who thinks on tho.;e
things disregard the call for conser
vation of food, for increased produc
tion of food, for the building of ships
and the doing of all other things which
are needed to give victory to our ar
mies and those of the Allies as they
battle to save us and civilization?
Can anyone who realizes this situa
tion fail to devote every spare moment
j to Red Cross and kindred work, and
'to the utmost limit of ability stand be
hind our fighting men and behind the
(government which they represent?
Surely the people who in this hour
are slackers must have reached that
stage of degradation. mentally, moral
ly and spiritually, which would seem
? to justify classing them as among thos
who liird committed the unpardonable
sin for which even Heaven has no
cure.
| The men and women who heed not
this call, but live unto themselves,
who fill their bellies with the glut
ton's portions, who waste their time
or their money on worthless pleasures
which add nothing to the nation's
strength, who for their own personal
profit delay work, or who do not whole
souledly throw into the struggle the.
full measures of their power, are cum
berers of the ground, a curse to the
nation, a disgrace to all mankind, dis
honoring the mothers who gave them
birth. Let such men and women,
however high or low. however rich or
poor, be they capitalists, manufactur
ers, merchants farmers, mechanics,
day laborers, teachers, preachers,
clerks, or whatever be their occupa
tions, be spurned with unutterable
loathing and contempt.?Manufactur
