In spite of the stormy weather there was a good attendance at the Gem theatre Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock to hear Frederick Stray of Washing- ton, D.

There were great peace movements, great in- crease in national socialism, and the fact that the bulk of the world’s re- sources were gripped by a few men would make such a war impossible. Many reasons given but they have all failed, the greatest conflict in modern history has come and contin- ued for years almost; this is the sec- ond year and still no great decision. Verdun Greatest Battle. I suppose that thi at battle that has been going on for weeks at Ver- greatest single battle in vy of the world. For hun running of miles alon; esmen, the greatest relig- have said that such a war was impossible; the world would never see such a conflict. I wonder hat s of a civilization we are go- ing to have in Purope after this mighty conflict, which robs the world of the best. If civilization progresses along line, then civilization we at is no more than the rbarism of our forefathers. The great quest! is, what does the Bible have to say about it Has it foretold any condition as is seen today? Just such a confli been foretold, not only the conflict it- self, but the cause and its outcome. Bible Foretells Events. You have heard it said that the Bi- ble is like any other old history. All the histories I have ever read were seeking to place before world things that had occurred. BEut the Bi- ble is the history of events thousands of years in advance. We find it written here that the Jows were to be scattered from one end of the earth to the other.

In the second chapter of Daniel, Daniel declares that there will be four great world nations and no more. In all the history of the world there have only been four great world nations, The fourth great empire was Rome. There has been no universal monarchy since Ceaser. Why is 1t? &t is not because men have not iried to set up the throne of Ceaser. Napoleon tried but failed. Queen Victoria and other great rul- ers have tried by intermarriage with other rulers to reunite these lands so that such a conflict as the present would not be.
