Thoughts For The Times
Constitution Of A Blessed Land. AIT tilings, whatsover ye would that men should do unto you, do ye even so to them. There is the remedy for all the ills that a.'fflict this old world of ours. It is an everlasting treaty of peace between individuals, states, and nations. It is stronger in its guardianship of peace than huge battleships with armor clad or great air lilies with banners. Whenever we care to accept it and apply it. w shall have a cessation of turmoil, and we shall see no more wars forever. It is as easy of acceptance and use as any of the thousand and one panaceas offered for th e regeneration of the world. Possibly we think it is a. too simple remedy to serve our needs. Still, it fs “the law and the prophets,” and the constitution of that blessed land where the bloodless sword serves as a plowshare and the spea,r as a pruning hook, where the lion and the lamb lie down together, and there is peace on earth, and g toward men. All things, whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them.
