f ' FSGE RIGHT mrbforp mail tribune, medford, Oregon, Friday, November so, 1023 TO WOULD PEACE OR FORFEIT RESPECT "What Makes a Nation Great?" was tho subject of tho meswige of Rev. P. R. Leach at the union Thanks giving service at the Main St. M. E. church So a tli Thursday evening. Tho sermon waa based on Isa. D8:2. Tho text, said the speaker, tells of a na tion which sought God; .practiced righteousness and upheld God's ordi nances, and took delight In serving God. Could such a nation bo called great? When do wo call a nation great today? Wo say that tho United States is a great nation. Why? We cite Its wealth, its big mines of coal and iron; Its miles of railways as evl dences. Would a nation bo grea without these things? If we possessed them and had no character would we still bo great? If we had no sense of honor; no national Justice; few groat men; no sense of social juHtlce, wou Tin; ww-v, of thk m:w KOCTJI A I'HK'A N ; VI !lt NOIt No more wood . to pack No nor any more coal or ashes for anyone tolug!

Is a per son great who docs not lovo his follow men, and grinds the poor and hoards his money, and is Immoral in his habits? Kussla Is not culled a great nation, notwithstanding hot great fields of grain and largo army. Wo say she is not groat because sho has dono so little for her people; given no freedom of speech and of religion; has shown little love or sense of social justico. Wo call SwIUorland grout, tho small, bocuuso sho has done so much for nor people. China is a populous nation but is never spoken of as a -great nation. Scotland we call a great na tion, because sho has given to the world groat men. A nation Is called great then not because of her rail roads; her wheat flolds or army and navy, but because every citizen Is given economic1 Justico and an oppor tunity to work at a living wage. The question Ih, thercforo, as a nation Is our social system Just; havo wo a happy contonted people; are we pro ducing the highest type of manhood, that fears nothing but baseness, and dares to face great Issues and solve them, and hus clean heurts? A nution Is great when it teaches tho world some great truth. No one would therefore call Turkey a great nation. Greece with no great rail roads or mineral wealth is crowned with glory A nation is great that dares trust in. Justice rather than force. Thero are two ways of defend ing a nation. Ono Is to crcuto a great standing army and build a strong navy and say "touch mo If you dare." 1 The other way is to be Just in all one's dealings with men; to exerclso GATHERS GIFTS FOR NEAR EAST Delegates from fourteen nations met a fow weeks ago to provide some way for the feeding and training, until they can become self-BupportIng of 100,000 hungry and orphaned children of Bible lands, who suffer and starve this win tor as, one result of the war and the bitter persecution which ran riot in those countries then and since.
