The Play's
Message of Peace
If this graphic presentment serves no other pur
pose, its message for universal peace marks it of
great importance. Morally and educationally it
establishes the futility of armed conflict. A mem
ber of the senate of the United States expressed
the foregoing sentiment.
"Anyone contemplating war should see this pic
ture," added the senator, "L sincerely beliove it
will do more to doter people from engaging in war
than anything written or, spoken on the subject in
years."
Great. caro has been taken not to glorify battle.
Even the music stops in its motif of glorification to
sound the liote Q.f. terror and desolation which is the
real truth of war.
Armies seldom settle disputed questions of state.
But, where thrty accomplish this much, in the wake
of conflict arises newer and more terrible questions.
But for the hatred engendered in the civil war, the
suffering of the reconstruction period would never
have been known.
