“If every lingiishman is not setting himself heart and soul to the prevention of war, tnen lie is plaviiiig the devil’s game, ’’ said Arc-nbishop Julius, preaching a t the Feudal ton Church (says tlie “Press.”) The Archbishop said that unfortunately there were two codes for humanity, one for the private and personal c-cmroit of the individual, and another for international comfort. In the past years of thei Empire, for example, many things were tolerated now, isueh as the excessive punishments for trivial crime, and the industrial conditions of a century ago; yet the dear people went to church just the j same then. They tolerated as a whole, | actions and conditions they would not dream of countenancing as individuals. “Even now,” lie said, “we tolerate as a nation actions which we would not tolerate as individuals. It is as though a man has one code, but let him get on to a governing body or ,a. town council and he is different. We are often amazed -at the savings and doings of public bodies when we know the upright men who belong to them. The man has a conscience, but an institution has none. Is there one code for the Christian and another for the nation? “During the years, I am glad to say,’’ said the Archbishop, “there has been a. deepening of tne spiritual life of the community. All parties, no matter how they may strive against each other, are more winling to cooperate and assist. ft is, I think, the birth of a kind of national conscience. (By special arrangement.
