Classic Jack Hamm Comic - Significant Peace Conference

"Significant Peace Conference" By Jack Hamm. Patterson, NJ News, January 16, 1954

This panel was published at a time of a very young United Nations and many talks of peace conferences. Hamm's illustration is a reminder that peace can begin with prayer and on our knees. While no direct scripture is printed with this comic panel, the "Family Altar" is embodied by these scriptures:

Joshua 24:15 - And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." 

Deuteronomy 6:6-7 - And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.

Genesis 18:19 - For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the Lord, to do justice and judgment; that the Lord may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.
