I needs must conte another day
Te nnu my garden's richest bloom.
So in a sweet bewilderment
I turn to leave my peony beds;
I have not found the flower I meant
To give the name I love, but spent
The morning hours where beauty
spreads.

THE CHURCH AND WAR
,Considerable confusion exists in lithe
minds' of many people as to the 'darty
oh the Christian church in time of
war. One thing ought to Ibe (kept
clearly in mind, than the chief task of
the church either in time 0.3 war or of
,peace is to bear witness to spiritual
values. In Itim)es like the present
when night and power -have Ibsen in-
voked for the settleinen't sof interna-
tiona'l problems, an .urgent task of
the church is to Ibenr ,faithful (testi-
mony to -the !limits of ,force.
Lt is true that the church may not
he agreed as Ito what these limits are.
A mifnority witthin the •clvurch would
allow n -o place ,For .force in ,the ser-
vice of God's Ipuapose. 'Others while
