Several years ago a member o f
the Russian dujna said these words:
“ The history of mankind leads ua to
hope that the principles of liberty
and Justice w ill eventually triumph
over wrong and oppression, and that
the happiness o f the human fam ily

dream. But the road to liberty lb

In th e Oregon Journal by Dr. tooyd,

on the topic, “ Is the church laalng

And
among other things he said, “ T h e

Jesus but to learn to express H is

A prominent m in taler in an eastern

must supplant war, cruelty and ha

mental and physical, must recetfb
