So as Bro. Loaeh says, IL we follow
the teachings of Christ we must love
one another and not call each other
bad names
"Uncle Tom" yonr last letter was
good. see You have been reading
the prophecies. No. We ara not left
to guess about the glorious reign of
Christ, as il Is most beautifully por-
trayed by the mouth of Gods holy
prophets. The next great change of
the world. or in other words. the fifth
universal kingdom. will be the king
dom of Christ. the glorious millen-
ium which is now dawning and al
though the dark clouds of the great
battle of Armagejden are very near
and threatening. still thru the eye of
faith we may see the beautiful silver
lining of the dark oloud of trouble.
Thru the eyes of faith we may sec the
beautiful silver lining of tue dark
clouds of trouble. Thru the eve of
faith we can see this sin cursed world
purified and made like the garden of
Eden. We can see the new heavens
and the new earth wherein dweleth
righteousness. All present govern
ments and earthly systems must be
dissolved in the great conflagration,
the fire of the Lords anger, the battle
of the great day of God Almighty,
Then the new order Of things will be-
gin, the kingdom of Christ will be
established. Then instead of the mar
row way the highway of holiness will
be cast forth and all the obedient may
walk up to the perfection forfeited by
Adam but brought back by our Lord
who paid the price on Calvary, but
only now in the gospel age do any
have the privilege of walking in the
narrow way. suffering with Jesus,
presenting ourselves a living sacrifice
that we my gain the prize of the high
calling, which is to be like Christ our
Lord, to be co-workers with Him in
bringing the world to perfection and
harmony with God to reign with
Christ thousand years. Paul says.
know ye not tue saints shall judge
the world
So let us strive to be accounted
worthy to escape the judgements that
are coming upon earth and have q
part in the first resurrection that on us
the second death may have no power.
So let us be up and doing while it is
yet day, ''for the night cometh when
no man can work.

BUCKINGHAM-BEHRENS
 SUPPORT FOR HOME

Casting aside all sentimental req sons. the plans of Bridgeport Protec- tive Association to establish home by April 1, for women who have er- red and are repentant, and wayward girls is being endorsed from a civic and economic viewpoint. Students of the needs of a large and growing city as well as keenly interested in any movement tending to aid human 1ty, perhaps there are no better equip ped persons to pass upon a. question of this sort than former Mayor E. T. Buckingham and President F. William Behrens of the Charities Board. Both of these come forward in unqualified endorsement of the proposed plan and believe that its successful opera ton will prove of much material good to the city.
 Asked concerning the institution yesterday, MT. Buckingham said that it has long been a needed adjunct to the civic improvement of the city. During his administration, he said, attention that there might, and un- doubtedly would have been a differ Eent disposition, had there been such an Institution as is proposed. He advocated such a. work, but unfor- tunate1y, the time was not considered ripe then. He said that he is greatly pleased that it appears to predict a successful completion now as he be- lieves that it will mean much to the city as well as to the individuals.
 MT. Behrens is another realizing from experience that such an insti- tuition can accomplish much good. As a member, and president of the or ganfzation he has heard many pathet- ic stories of domestic tribulatfons and other troubles. He says that the in- stitution can not fail to be one of the most potent influences for good in the city to-day. Others endorsing the in- stitution are Mayor Wilson, Superin- tendent of Police Birmingham, Cap tain of Detectives Arnold, State Police man Virelli, Superintendent of Char ities Fred R. Johnson, Probation Off, fcer c. W. Simpson and Superinten- dent Merle c. Cowles of Lakevtew.
