TOWNSVILLE

Jonesville, Nov. love had
thunder showed Sunday which laid
the dust and set the ground in good
ploughing order. Much small grain
is being sown in the country which is
the thing to do and it is a good, sure
way to cut acreage.
l haye already said in these. col
umns that l did not believe in the re-
duction act passed at the late session
OF the legislature, neither do think
the bond issue act amounted to a row
OF pins. but mind you, it cost the state
as much as millions of rows of pins
and this is no time to be wasting the
peoples money, either And then the
warehouse bill with it's long list of
commission with "curly headed" john
ME at the top is all wasting the peo-
pies money as l see it,
said in nv letter last week that I
verify believed that cotton would
gradually work it's way up to 10 cents
and 1T has since gone up fourth of
cent. The European war is dread
full calamity to the whole world and
there is no hore for it's ending soon
so we must just make the best of con-
ditions that We can, and move on as
usual with a whole lot of economy
and .practive the motto, Give and let
live"
Some of those people who are hunt
ing for signs and wonders and for the
time to come when the world will
come to an end are talking and writ
ing and even preaching that the great
European war is about the last Of the
prophecies concerning that awful
event, but l do not see it or under
stand it that way. Some people have
located the time by reading the Book
of Revelations in the New Testament.
but | have my predictions on what our
Lord and Savior said about it in the
24th chapter of Matthew. He told the
people plainly that there would be
wars and rumorS of war, earthquakes
and pestilence in divers places, but
the end is not yet. All these things
must come to pass before the end of
time and then He goes on to say
that an hour no man knoweth, no not
even himself and the man that is un-
dertaking to place the Judgment day
Is claiming to be more than Jesus
Christ. After all the prophecies have
been fulfilled the Savior saws the end
will come but He does not saw even
then how long afterwards it will be.
so it may even be thousand years:
then as the Bible says a thousand
years is no more than day with the
Lord. The Savior says this, "Be We
ready for ye know not when the Son
OF Man cometh," and that is all i'm
portant part of ito be ready and
it is really those that are not ready
that are troubled about it. Then if
the Savior comes at cock Growing or
at noon,-it will be we'll with your soul.
