A Question That Suggests An Answer
That Every Citizen Should Make
Said a clergymen iq a pulpit in one
of the Eeetern 'Townships of Quebec.
a year age; "Ther Canadian who
comes out of this war richer than he
went into it, will have cause to be
ashamed of himself."
Tile speaker bad inure iu his wind
than army contractors and their pro-
fits. Ile was thinking of the sacrifices
—financial as well as personal ---that
are inevitably imposed in time of war
on every good Citizen.
In the time of each a world cata-
clysm to the real patriot nothing can
be normal. He must view every act.
as it will help or hinder the winning
of the war, and he is bound to spare
no effort to save no money, if thereby
the cause ie advanced, When nearly
four hundred thousand Canadians are
so impressed by the gravity of the call
that comes to .them that they have
offered to risk the loss of limbs, of
health, of life itself, what good citizen
can hesitate to meet alt righteous de-
mands made in the same cause on his
pocket -book? Let us confess that
these demands are heavy: yet if Can-
adians were to give only their surplus
earnings over and above what they
were earning in, way, 1013, These de-
mande would be more than satisfied.
Of all these c elle, none is more Im-
portant than that of the Oanadiau
Patriotic Fund. This 1s the Fund
that guarantees to the mothers, wives
and children of our soldiers freedom
from all danger of privation while
their breadwinner is away. To make
this provision for the dependents of
Ontario's soldiers in 1017 will cost at
least six million dollars, of wbioh four
millions must be raised by personal
contributions of patriotic citizene.
Let every man whose profits or income
have been increased since August deb,
101.1, consider well if he will have ma
son to be ashamed of himself if this
great fund is unable to fulfil its mis..
Bion, and he at the same time is able
to count himself the richer for the war?

COMMUNICATION
To TM) Editor of The Advance
Dear Site --.-
Onlooker of "The Advance" recently
asked[ When will the war end? It
will end when pod wills it, a long
time it Lae sorely troubled lgany,
how that a pod of love could justify
a war so bloody, so terrible; but now
the awakening beginneth to dawn,
the eight Is far spent, and we see the
fleet glimmering of the Light in the
East. Its this, if we were all real, all
true, war would be pa more, alas in-
stead of worshipping God in purity
and love many so called ehristimes have
a fetish which le none other more or
leso, ,than cant, empty ritual, greed,
bigotry, prejudice and humbug; while
a gospel of Peace, joy, universal love
and brotherbuod is proaebed.from our
pulpits, yet alae, do wo see Christian
against Christian though acknowledg-
ing the same Lord as Master. 'We send
our paiesionarys to convert the heath-
en, preaching to them Peace on earth,
goodwill, to men, while at the same
time wading neck deep in our brother's
blood, "Consistancy, what a jewel,"
My heart is with the Allies and feign
world I this day be with them in the
fight but being rejected, because of
medical unfitness, I have to stay at
home and sigh; yet were our number
increased ten fold, the war would not
cease, until God stretches forth His
hand and bide us sheath the sword.
Yet we are nob justifiable, in taking
our ease, with the idea, that this being
God's of al; 1Ie will end it without any
help. God does not work that way.
He abhors those who in church, dep-
reciates self as something despicably
mean, and with vain eulogys to the
Lord, expect flim to expressly favour
them and leave the other poor fellowe
out in the cold, With all reverence,
Sir, I say to the Devil with such cant-
ing hypocrisy, a man has no more bus-
iness to underrate than to over-rate
himself. When purity in all her love-
liness, shall sit in the pew and be
preached at from the pulpit, and when
man's inhumanity to man shall cease,
then war shall be no more, and peace
shall reign on earth as it does in Heaven
Thanking you Sir in• anticipation for
space in your valuable columna,
I would as ever remain
A Lover of Peace.
