MEANING OF EUROPEAN WAR.
Viewed from Prophetic Standpoint by
Seventh Day Adventists.

The Seventh-day Adventists all over
the world have been preaching for 90
years the downfall of Turkey in Eu-
rope, and one of their beliefs is that
the Turk eventually will come to his
end as nation, the consummation of
this event coming with the battle of
Anna geddon, when Christ will make
his second return. "Never before have
men ideals been so suddenly and
completely shattered says an elder of
the church. tJust as the churches and
Ipeace societies were preaching peace
and safety the greatest war of the
| centuries burst unexpectedly upon the
world. A spirit of inquiry as to the
meaning of these things is taking
possession of all classes of people.
"Above the din of battle the divine
hand is seen. Fourteen long chains Of
prophecy are recorded in the Bible.
Some of these show us what we may
i yet expect in the future. In the third
year of Cyrus, king of Persia, the angel
Gabriel gave Daniel a detailed expla-
nation of the history of the world from
| that distant point to the overthrow of
| the Turkish empire and the end of the
world in the present age. The sacred
|
north shall come to his end in the
valley of the Euphrates and at Arma-
geddon, which territory is now ruled
over by the Turk, it will usher
in the time of trouble such as never
was since there was nation It
also says that 'at that time Michael
| (Christ) shall stand up; and at that
time thy people shall be delivered,
every one that shall be written in the
book
The important question for every
one of us to settle is not how we may
enrich ourselves by Turkeys misfor
tune, for when Turkey goes down the
whole world goes down in a universe
crash. The question for us to settle
now is whether our names are writ
ten in the book Of life. Well may
the lonely pilgrim of earth, by these
last landmarks of time, count hi.

Italy's decision not to take part in
the Balkan campaign is probably due
to a desire not to come into direct col
hsion with the Germans. Italy has not
declared war upon Germany, nor Ger
many upon Italy. Italy's declaration
was against Austria, and the fighting
of the Italians has been wholly against
the Austrians. At the same time the
situation is too complicated and arti-
fical to be maintained indefinitely
and it seems as if Italy would eventu-
ally be forced to fight against anybody
allied with Austria.

BRAFTLEBoRo JOURNALISTS.

One of New York city best newspa |
per reporters was born in Brattleboro;
but he made haste to get out of Brat
tleboro when a mere oungster-Barre
Times.
We judge that this quip is intended
to bring rise from The Reformer. We
bite. 1t is true that the late Harry
Stowe, one of the most capable men on |
the New York World staff, left Brattle-
boro in boyhood, but he always retain
ed his interest here and was a loyal son
Of the town of his birth.
The Times probably does not know
that Brattleboro has been a nursery of
authors and newspaper workers. We
won { make pretension claims to Rud-
yard Kipling and Steele Mackaye. the
dramatist. both of whom turned out
some of their notable works while resi-
dents of the town, nor of Mary Viii
| kins Freeman, who became famous as Il
writer of stories Of New England life
| while still resident here, but there
are number of persons whom we re-
| call from memory that are connected
with the town who have made good as
writer's or newspaper managers
Bert Lesion Taylor, the Chicago hu-
morist, who is a sort of second Eugene
Field, received his early newspaper
! training as a local reporter on The Re
former. Charles H. Davenport, found
CT of this paper, is chief editorial
writer of the Worcester Post, and his
son, Holton Davenport, was reporter
on the same paper before he was adj
mitted to the bar. The Hartford Cour-
ant is not only one of the oldest news
papers in America, but one of the best
from the standards which real journal
Clifton l.. Sherman and its business
manager is Henry H. Conland, both
graduates of the Brattleboro high school
Merton c. Robbins, manager of Iron
Age and other trade papers, and di-
rector of the United Publishers corpo-
ration, is Brattleboro boy who main
tains a summer home near the farm
where he was born. Lester G. French
of this town was for dozen years edi-
tor of Machinery and Steam Engineer
ing and is now at the head of the pub
LEGATION department of the national so
ciety of mechanical engineers.
Sally JOY White, one of the pioneer
newspaper women of the country who
for years held an important position
on the Boston Herald, was product OF
the local schools. Frank E. Howe OF
the Bennington Banner, former lieuten
ant governor, started his newspaper ca
reer in The Reformer office. William
f. Collins, in charge of the literary de
partment of the Newark News, wht
probably has travelled more extensivels
in Europe during the present war than
any other correspondent, is Il graduate

the period of year ago. Adviees from
apiaries indicate that the production
of honey in this state has been the
best it has been for several years and
that the bees are in excellent condition
for the winter period. Manufacturers
of doors, sashes and blinds report

points have been made during the past
week.
Retail merchants comment favosably

French Canadians who are coming
across the northern Vermont border and
who are making a success of farming
have been a factor in greatly increas-
ing real estate values. In Swanton,
Enosburg and other towns there are no
abandoned farms, and the demand for
farm properties is lively with high
prices prevailing. According to the
Standard, a farm in Enosburg, listed
under the last quadrennial appraisal at
$3,G25, sold few weeks ago for $4,000,
and few days thereafter, and after
some slight repairs to buildings had

1t is the aim OF the management to
