Nations Respect U. S., Bishop Says We Should Use Opportunity to Serve — Message of Thanksgiving Address. Bishop Homer C. Btuntz, address ing members of tho Continental club at luncheon yesterday In Hotel Fon tenelle, stated that this country has a unique opportunity to serve human ity. He was applauded when he as serted that tlie United Slates should exert an influence with other na tions, hut should not become involved politically with other countries. “It was not intended that this country should be Involved in the age oM feuds and Intrigues of other na tions," tho bishop said. He spoke in a spirit of thanksgiving—of the things that should Inspire a feeling of gratitude among the people of this nation. “America has a tremendous Influ ence abroad," fhe speaker added. “The world now knows that this country can fight when necessary. Hven Japan is convinced of that. Wo should he thankful because we have . shown such marvelous recuperative powers since the world war. We should he grateful when we think that we are so prosperous while other parts of the world are hungry. There is reason for thankful hearts when we realize that this country of ntns has furnished tho world the norm of political grow'th. I thank tlod for the measure of prosperity we have, for it is real prosperity when measured by the standards of the past." Bishop Stuntz exposed tne person who continually refers to the "good old times." or refers disparagingly to present-day conditions. "We are the most comfortably housed and fed people under the sun," the speaker added. "We arei in a more hopeful" condition than any courageous prophet would have pre dicted five years ago. I heard a man the other day—he was a preacher and should have known better—refer to the good old times. There never was such an animal. It Is an illus ion of mortal mind. In the good old times that I remember I arose in the morning in a cold house, hroke the ice in the wash basin, milked 10 cows before breakfast and rode to town in a box wagon. We had no paved roads. Think of the comforts, lux uries and refinements we enjoy to day, and then tell me not of the good oH times. We are in the good old times, here and now. bet us he thankful and grateful, bet us pro mote brotherly love and good will.” Frank Beaston,. Fred Trowbridge, H.
