THE DEADLIEST OF WARS ,
There's a war in progress right
now that will produce more cas-
ualties than the two great world
wars. It makes the current cold
war look lime a Sunday 'School
picnic. It, is being fought in
the home, in the schools, and
in the streets, in every country
in the u orld.
The war I'm talking about is
the war between youth and age.
There has been no declaration
of war, no single incident which
has provoked hostilities. But the
fighting has begun, and it's going
to be a long, cruel destructive
one before it ends, a war' like
no other the human race has
seen.

The war was° ineyitable. For
5,0.00 years, the majors managed

of guile, economic pressure and
sheer numbers (infant mortality
was high), the elders kept the
young in check.
They convinced them that age
and wisdom were synonymous.
They assured them that older
men made better politicians,
preachers, and generals. They

subject, "What does the Resur-

You and Yours?" in the Saugeen
District High, School in Port
Elgin on Sunday, Novmber 21.
• This -was the main feature gst
.the, circuit assembly held there.
Mr. Statton said. "We are living
in a world of atheistic thinking
when people are more prone to
accept the ideas of man than the
word of- God as to the hope of
the resurrection," Mr. Statton
continued- by saying, "The Bible
speaks.of a first resurrection 'and
then an after resurrection, and

We hl -ow up our hands in
horror at their likes in dress
and in music, at their popular
heroes, at their natural desires.
When ,they are. polite, we grow
pompous. When they are in-

Yep, the war is on. Don't
worry. I'm not- a traitor. I'll
stick with the majors. I've al-
ways been a sucker for lost
causes. And I have never yet
left a sinking ship.
