SAYS FOLCflESS FAILS
IN INTERPRETING OMENS
Allinnc, Nrbr., tremhr 13. To
the Alitor of The Hernld. Dear Sir:
In your issue of Deremtar 10, there
aprearrd n short articlp by Mr. FoM
ueFH. His inference, that, the preat
conflict of ArmnpwMon is to be stap-ed
in Asia Minor la more likely to be the
result of a somewhat ,ular conclu
sion than a true interpretation of
prophecy. The natural mind is more
prone to be absorbed in the ephemeral
character of time and place than it is
able to assimilate and digest the many
lessons evolving out of them. The
word Armageddon expresses that con
lict between truth iind error, which is
ore likely to be contested in the mo.-i
'goroui and active centers, rather
han find its million in remote local
!e of the eurlr eflV.e civilization,
'onequcntly th:s count ry of oars i
lore likely to be the chosen arena
f Ihr.t world contest, seeing that its
'tizens hive involved the several
YiracterVt'cs and qualities of the
world's peoples.
It would tKo be weM fc him to con
der the fact that the prophec!es to
-refu'ly audited have both their po'ar
'unar and stellar, etc. division o
l,me, and that the places adapted fr
he mnn' Testation of evolved and in-
'Tfit-vl characteristics are as little

regarded in the divine mind as are
our irtoialiou and sen-ual personali
. es. Further, with all forward move
ment there is a co ncidental recess on
ry movement set up in all the man
festing degiees of activity. It, there
ore, becomes impossible lor the mun
.ane mlml to arrive at any precision
especting the harvest of those Chris
an qual'tics at present under con
ideration. Jlis materialistic conception of a
oVsal and fabulous city to be erect
d at the restoration of the Hebrew
at ion is about as fantastic as the
t-'hodox Christian acceptance of a
heaven up yonder," whose streets are
iterally paved with gold, or the for
orn hope of the w orld s emancipation
rom the prevailing unscientific con
eptions and interpretations f sound
overnmcnt.
Again, his dcclara'ion that fourteen
t ons will collectively rule and favor
lie earth with a thousand yeurs oi
eace must certainly exhaust our not
xaltrd and flattering concept'on of
he enduring unity and amicability of
.ations. No such plurality of nations
ould possibly uphold their pluraRy
f governments without the severity
it disputes and conflicts arising. True,
jiey might temporarily hypnotize
hemselves into a godless truce, to 1a
.cr lw bruised and broken under the
livine rod of a restorative just:ce.
Such an experience i snow being en
'Such an experience is now being er
'urope, which ho1oc-au:-t of Buffering
will continue until the respective na
ions are decimated and their re
ources exhaustel.
The fury and fanaticism expressing
.hrough the voluntary w'lls of men
orresponds to the recessionary pro
ess incident to the unfoldment and
pression of the elected and chosen
haractcrist'es of the God-man. The
ti esent conflict of Gog and Magog is
rior to the final conflict of Truth and
ror, wh'ch prepares the earth in its
mptism of fire, both spiritual and lit
ral, for the incoming and establish
ment of one nation and one people
Ahich in the scientific of their or
ganization will constitute the temple
nd city of the living God; and ex
ress in their qualitative appointments
he twelve respective functions of the
ee of life. This integral people will
l ligently and consistently uphold the
ne true form and function of uni
ersal government; which pattern is
guratively expressed in the co-ordl-;t!on
of the physical heavens that
cientifically manifest the law of per
etuity and therefore r'ghteousness to
V involved in the recognition of one
ontral throne and star. Yours truly,

THE UNIVERSAL CAR
To the business man, retail or wholesale; to the manuf actum ; to the commia
ion man; to the trucking company, the Ford Model T One Ton Truck makes
an irresistible appeal because it has in its chassis all the merits of the original
Ford car; the wonderful Ford Model T Motor, the dependable Vanadium steel
chassis, and the manganese bronze worm -drive. A strongly built truck that
serves satisfactorily and last in service If these statements were not true,
the demand for Ford Trucks wouldn't be so constantly on the increase. We
will be pleased to take your order for one or more Ford Trucks, will see that you
get reasonably prompt delivery, and will give you an after service that insures
the constant service of the Truck. But don't wait too long. Get your order
in promptly.

DON'T RISK IT
NO USE taking the risk of carrying money or of
having it around the house. You may have it
stolen and you may lose your life at the hands of
some bandit. Deposit your earnings in our bank and pay
your bills by check. We do the bookkeeping.
Be Practical
The young man in love often goes into raptures about "the
blue of the sea in her eyes and the golden haze of autumn
in her hair' but remember this, young man she'll eat
just the same as any other healthy girl. Therefore get
down to practical affairs. Save your money, deposit it in a
good reliable bank like ours and get ready to own a home
for you and the girl and to provide the three square meals a
day that you will both need as long as you live. You know,
when poverty comes in at the door, love sometimes flies out
of the window.
