JERUSALEM RESTORED!

By long odds the biggest news
of the whole war was the an
nouncement that the Holy City,
Jerusalem, had been delivered
from the Turks. That is great
news, especially to students OF
prophecy, and it means a great
deal more than the world at large
has yet realized. 1t is plain full
flIment of prophecy and the be-
ginning of the great restoration
and the New Age that | have
been telling you about. The next
issue of Good News will have a
long and interesting article on
this subject. Watch for it.

THE. six DAYS"

AUong the various kinds and
classes of people chat Good News
has. brought me in contact with
are a few conscientious but nar-
row souls who insist on a strictly
.aiteral Interpretation of the
Six Days of Creation. They seem
unable to grasp the idea that a
day ever means anything but
a LITERAL day.
Well, let US suppose, just for
arguments sake, that the crea.
ton Of all things did take just
six of our literaI24 hour days. To
do so much creating in such a
short time certainly proves that
God is very great and powerful.
I don't deny that He is ABLE to
have done it that way. But the
thing that puzzles me is this:
flood is so great and pr werful,
and if this great and 20 verful
God has existed throughout all
past eternity, as we believe, then
what in the world had He been
doing all that time up to 5000
years ago? Can you imagine such
a God sitting with His hands
folded and doing absolutely moth
ing throughout all the inconceive-
able ages of the past? And after
being idle so long, what in the
world made Him take such an
industrious spell and work so
hard for just SIX DAYS and
then quit again?
It is the most unreasonable
thing I. ever thought about.
The only reasonable thing to do
is just to accept the truth that
each creative day.. was a long
period of time thousands and
maybe millions of years long.
don't deny that God is ABLE
to make a big oak tree from a
little acorn in one night; put il
happens that that is not Gods
way Of making an oak tree. The
tree grows slowly year by year,
and each years growth leaves g
ring" in the wood, and by
counting these rings we can
guess pretty we'll at the age OF
the tree.

who are interested in the paper. Ithas also been a great discour-
agement to me, but | have been doing my very best under the
circumstances. | have had a hard time of it all the while, and
the past two months have been unusually trying on me. In the
first place, the weather has been so uncommonly cold and disa-
greeable that | couldn't get along with the office work, and be-
sides that, | have had to be nurse, cook and h~ousekeeper most Of
the time. My only dependence for getting my type set is to stick
lit by hand Gas l am doing this piece or else wade NINE MILES
through the mud and snow to get it set on a Linotype Machine.
That's how bad need a Linotype of my own, and I just can't
make any progress till l getit. With a machine of my own I can
get out the paper every week much easier than | have been
getting it out monthly without the machine.

Most Of you know about the sickness in.

to get out the monthly all by myself. The
fact is, the monthly is too big a job for
me to handle all alone under existing con-
