Nevertheless, I am convinced that the coming year, the last vear of our present century, is fraught with big events. Occult and mystic thought for a long time looked ahead to the close of this century as to a critical era. The 0ld evangelicalism of theology. inter- preting the Old Testament prophecies, expected the coming of Christ some- where in the latter part of this century. As we understand the second coming of Christ, it means a great spiritual re- formation, or renaissance, or reviving. or a new illumination, a new vivifica- tion of Christendom. There are manv things that look like the fulfillment. even in the last year of this century. of this belief of our fathers. One of the curious things connected with this occult and mystic and pro- phetic onlooking of the end of this cen- tury is the confident expectation of our .vangelical fathers that the Old Testa- ment prophecies would be literally ful- filled in the return of the Jews to the Holy Land.

Per- haps we may have to revise some of our notions concerning the Old Testament prophecies should such an event come to_pass.

The meetings have been thor- oughly outspoken, with no concealment of personal belief or abatement of pe sonal conviction, as vet the sympathy and tolerance and underlying unity have been manifested beyond precedent —giving most auspicious promise of the | dawning of the day when there shall be | indeed a symphony of religions. 00000000000 WO0000R00000CO0C0O0000000 YOUR FIRST BALL. 5 % A strain from a violin, delicate sweet, A sound as of tapping and slipping of feet, A swishing of skirts, an embarrassing Fives | Of such are the memories of your first | ball.
