SOME WONDERFUL

The higher critics of our day, of j
course, in discrediting Daniel and the I
Prophets and the Psalms of the Old j
Testament, these critics really dis- j
credit Jesus and the Apostles. These j
higher critics of all the great colleges \
have undermined faith in the Bible as
the word of God, and thus undermine j
all faith in a personal Creator with
many. These critics have little to say J
against him who spoke as never man
spoke. But the discerning minds of
our day perceive that as Jesus and the
Apostles quoted Daniel and the
Prophets as divinely inspired, the dis-
crediting of the one is the rejection of
the other. How could we rely upon
the testimony of Jesus and the
Apostles respecting other matters, if
they erred respecting the prophecies j
of the past? The condition of Chris- |
tendom today is truly deplorable, and
although we can see how it has come
about, it seems almost impossible to
restore faith once lost. Only the very i
honest-hearted may we expect will be 1

for anarchy. The wonder is that the
great and rich, supporting colleges
which thus teach, do not realize that j
they are bringing anarchy upon the
world. Even now, labor, like the
thus defined the issue and the verdict
is now in. It is a definite repudiation
of a leadership that was believed to
be exerted in the direction of an easy
peace. For that was the subject on
which public attention was centered
in the weeks immediately preceding
the election.
There is no denying that th«i Nation
and the Allies for several days were
exceedingly uneasy over the Presi-
dent's maneuvers in connection with
the German application for an arm-
istice. His first reply came as a tre-
mendous shock to the country. It
was explained by newspapers that
were regarded as his unofficial spokes-
men, as the preliminary to a "healing
peace." At once a flood of telegrams
of protest swept into Washington.
The telegraph offices were swamped
with messages urging that the fruits
of the war be not .thrown away.
Democratic senators and represen-
tatives were badly frightened. The
effect at the White House is not
known. But it is a fair inference that
the uprising throughout the country
came as a big surprise. The Presi-
dent had been so sheltered from
criticism by the patriotic feeling that
the country must stand behind the
commander-in-chief in the war that he
probably had come to feel that his
leadership would be followed im-
plicitly.
Indeed this feeling was frankly

In those Northern and Western
which there is a real ex-1 " ■
vote Republican one year and Demo
cratic another, the result was an over-
whelming repudiation of the Presi-
dent's leadership.
Under the constitution it is his
plain duty, of courfee, to co-operate
with the newly elected Congress which
represents the latest mandate of the
people. Particularly is it his duty to
guide his course in the peace confer-
ence so that it will receive the Sen-
ate's approval since a two-thirds vote
of that body is necessary to the
treaty's adoption.

Many Shall Run t«> and Fro.
Everybody knows that stimulated I
by printing there has been a greater |
development of knowledge along ev-
ery line within the past century than
during the preceding fifty-nine cen-
turies. Everybody knows that the
telegraph, telephone, wireless, electric
lights, gas lights, and steam railroads,
electric roads, machinery, conven-
iences, etc., of our day were all un-
known a century ago. But although
we knpw this to be true, it seems al-
most incomprehensible to the rising
generation. These things have come
so gradually that few realize that
they are foregleams of the great thou-
sand-year day of Messiah's kingdom
in which the curse will be fully re-
moved, and instead the blessing long
promised of God will be outpoured
upon humanity abundantly. The f
Bible declares the coming glory of
earth, when God shall make the
place of His feet glorious, when the
whole eart^i shall be a paradise of
God. Our great scientists who give
no heed to the Bible, testify that
present attainments are as nothing to
what is just at hand. God describes
our day in Daniel's prophecy, saying
in the time of the end (of this age)
many shall run to and fro; knowl-
edge shall be increased; the wise shall
understand and there shall be a time
of trouble, such as never was since
there was a nation. (Dan. 12:1-10;
Matt. 24:21.)
Are we not in the, midst of the run-
ning to and fro which this prophecy
predicted 1 We must, therefore, be
living today in the period designated
the time of the end-—the time in
which this age will gradually close
and a new age will gradually dawn
with greater blessings. The first
locomotive was built only a century
ago. Now in every land, multitudes

Helping Whip the Hun
The giant tank—monster of the land—playing so
mighty a role in crushing Germany, owes its uncon-
querable strength to the tiny rivets—thousands of
them—used in its construction.
These rivets are almost exclusively hardened in Gas
Treated Furnaces.
Gas Treated Furnaces have been selected for this
tremendously important task because of their adapt-
ability, their reliability, their speed, their economy,
their fuel-saving and man-saving advantages.

RED CROSS NOTES.
The definite program of the propos-
ed Christmas membership drive of
the American Red Cross will be an-
nounced shortly. The campaign,
which will be from December 16 to
23, has for its objec*. the enlisting of
every American in the world as a
member of the organization. The
campaign will be for members and
, ,, , . j -| not for funds. A drive for funds
fathers probably never traveled fifty probably will be made in the spring.

miles from their birthplace. Surely
no prophecies could be mohe accur-
ately fulfilled than this one. Who
but God could have known and fore-
told this marked peculiarity of our
day? Jesus quoted a part of this
prophecy.
Knowledge Shall be Increased.
Daniel not only disclosed that our
day would be marked by running to
and fro, but also gave another indi-
cation; knowledge shall be increased.
Surely we have this fulfillment also.
Instead of plowing with a crooked
stick, we have up-to-date steam
plows which accomplish a hundred
times the work. Contrast writing
upon stone and upon parchment, la-
borous and expensive, with our mod-
ern printing. Contrast the beginning
of printing with today. No printing
establishment in the world better il-
lustrates the perfection of this art in
our day (than does the U. S. Govern-
ment printing office at Washington.
No library better illustrates modern
learning than does the Congressional
library. Today the learning is not
confined to the great, the wealthy, or
the few; it is general. The schools
of the civilized world are full, and
thuss too, knowledge is increasing.
How wonderful that God foreknew all
all these things and foretold them
through Daniel's prophecy twenty-
five centuries ago, saying "Many
shall run to and fro and knowledge
shall be increased." Here we have it
we are evidently in the time of the
nd mentioned and well we may rejoice
in the oncoming new age.
No longer do we hold that the
world will literally end, and with a
combustion which will reduce it to a
cinder. We are ready to believe
God's word—that He created not the
earth in vain. He formed it to be in-
habited—to be the paradise home of
humanity, regenerated under Mes-
siah's kingdom. (Isa. 45:18). Year
by year we see the earth preparing
for full inhabitation. Recent earth-
quakes closed some and opened other
channels of the Japan streams, af-
fecting the climate of Alaska and the
Arctic zone remarkably. Gradually
the glaciers in the form of icebergs
are running out and dissolving in tbe
more equatorial waters. Gradually
the curse will be removed and the
arm band with a gold star, to be worn
in lieu of regular morning by rela-
tives of men lost in the service, has
met with general approval of be-
reaved families, the demand for them
indicates. The American Red Cross
has just received orders for 20,000 ad-
ditional brassards. As in the past,
they will be given free to parents and
widows of the men, and to other rela-
tives at cost.
Eugene Pettus, director of conser-
vation of the American Red Cross for
the Southwestern Division, has issued ! Americans pursuing the Germans ad-
an appeal that a more active cam- t vanced so rapidly that it was found
, ,, .. e .. .. , I difficult to bring up emergency sup

that clubs be formed for the purpose
of collecting nuts. The pits and
shells are used in the manufacture of
gas masks for American soldiers.
The American Red Cross for the
Southwestern Division has opened 40
recruiting stations in Missouri, Kan-
sas, Arkansas, Oklahoma and Texas,
in an effort to obtain active Red
Cross workers. The demands being
made on the organization are increas-
ing daily and unless a great number
of workers are enlisted the efficiency
of the organization may be somewhat
impaired.
Men are wanted in the military
camps in this country to help sol-
diers and to supervise the distribu-
tion of Red Cross supplies. Men and
women are wanted in Washington and
at division headquarters of the or-
ganization to work as accountants,
stenographers, secretaries, buyers of
drugs and hospital supplies and for
general clerical work.
Red Cross provisions and supplies
were taken to American soldiers in
the front line trenches by airplane
during the' recent offensive. The
tors, flying low, dropped pressed b;ef
chocolate, cigarettes and other ar-
ticles.
