DECISIVE WEEK IN WAR
PREDICTED BY FRENCHMEN

Days May Decide Contest, 10 30.
lief of French Writer.

Paris.-The most decisive week In
the European war has just begun. II
the French and Belgian armies con-
tinue victorious during the next seven
days and Englands fleet Is success
full. Germany's doom is sealed On
the other hand, German successes
would have the effect of prolonging
the war without having any decisive
effect upon the ultimate outcome.
Germany's stragetic plan as far rs
Liege is concerned is not altered.
Regiment after regiment is pouring
into the lines from Cologne and Cob
lenz to storm the gallant Belgian
forts. '-'
But what was difficult five days
ago has been rendered practically I'M
possible now by the tremendous &C
tivity of $4,000 skilled civilians during
the last thirty hours in strengthening
Liege's defense works and by the ap-
parent massing of the French and
British troops to the westward OF
Liege.
Reports from the scene of conflict
differ here Monday night, but assum-
ing that the Germans should over
power Liege by their overwhelming
numbers and at the expense of an In
calcuable waste Of lives or have al
ready done SO, the kaiser's legions
must encounter in a great battle the
coalition of forces somewhere be-
tween Namur and Brussels, probably
on the field of Waterloo.
Meanwhile with the tremendous
spur given the French army by the
occupation of southern Alsace, the
whole force now is advancing toward
German territory, where the first
great impact Of the main armies 10
expected.

VA the Parable OF the Talents.
They teach totally different
lessons. In the case of the talents. the
amount given each servant differed.
In the case of the pounds. the amount
was the same. This parable. there
fore. deals with something common to
all the class referred to.
Jesus and His disciples were ap-
preaching Jerusalem. where shortly He
was to be crucifed. The disciples. on
the contrary. supposed that the Messi-
anic Kingdom would Immediately be
established. This parable was intend
ed to inform them that long time
would first elapse.
The kings of Palestine were appoint
ed by the Roman Emperor. One Of the
Herods had recently gone to Rome.
seeking appointment to kingdom.
Some who hated him sent a message
to Rome. declaring their preference for
another king. Jesus seized upon this
circumstance az illustrating His own
case. He was the Appointee for the
Messianic Kingdom: but He would go
to Heaven. and there the Heavenly
Father. Emperor OF the Universe,
would invest Him with authority.
Later He would return to earth and
exercise dominion. This Is exactly the
presentatio OF prophecy. Psalm 2:S,

case at the Masters return Only His
servants will be held responsible for
either reward or punishment In respect
to their faithfulness.
In considering what is signitied by
the pound we must keep 10 memory
that the fulfilment must show some
blessing or responsibility given alike
to all OF Gods consecrated people. We
can think OF but one thing given alike
to this class. Their talents and oppor-
tunities are very unlike-wealth. men

of these varied talents belong to this
Parable Of the Pounds a.... ....
The pound represents Qualification.
The one thing which the Redeemer
does for all His followers is to Justify
them freely from all things. leaving
them on exactly an equal footing; for
Justification makes up to each IN pro
portion as he Ia short OF perfection.
"Bs Thou Faithful Unto Death"
All who now become Christ's fol
lowers must receive from the Lord, as
basis for this relationship. the pound
free forgiveness of sins-justi6cation.
Because they are thus alike qualified,
the results will show the degree of
loving zeal controlling each servant
As In the parable one servant gained
ten pounds, 80 such noble characters
as St Peter, St. John and others count
ed all earthly things as loss and dross,
that they might be pleasing to their
Master, the coming King. These. and
such as these. who have gladly spent
themselves In the Lords service, will
have the highest rewards. The servant
who reported gain Of Ave pounds rep
