Louisiana with an apportionment of
100000 will have over 800, 900 sign

vote ever cast In that state. The
campaign managers In the other two
states, Idaho with 100000 and North

Ship Christmas Parcels Early

Chicago.-A campaign for early
shipment Of Christmas packages was
inaugurated at a Joint meeting of
the American Railway Associations
car service committees of Chicago,
Milwaukee and South Bend Coop
Grafton in this campaign was prom
ised by representatives of the Nation
al Industrial Traffic League and the
Chicago Association OF Commerce.
Each railroad is to do everything
possible to promote early shipments
of Christmas packages. whether by
mail or express. according to a reso-
luton adopted by the car service
committees.
There is at the present time a
shortage of baggage car equipment
that affects the handling OF mails"
said p. j. Schardt, government sup
erintendent OF railway mail service. :"
"and this shortage will be felt more
keenly with the approach of the hol-
iday period. when the flow OF mail
increases far above normal.
THE selective army law has made
serious inroads on our clerical force.
Unless the public will take into con-
sidoration the shortage OF equipment
and OF labor that the railway mail
service will be confronted with dur
ing the holiday period, serious- con-
gestion and consequent delays to
Christmas mails will result, to say
nothing OF the disappointments to
both senders and receivers of belat-
ed packages"

OMEN OF ULTIMATE
VICTORY.
BY the Rev. w. H. Carwardine.

The sign of the cross has low
cred the sign of the crescent in the
Holy Land. The capture of .jeru-
salem will be heartening to the
allies and bring joy to Christians
and Jews throughout the earth.
1t is phenomenally significant
from every standpoint. Biblical
prophecy is fulfilled. Retributiom
to the Turk has come. The long
looked-for return of the Jews to
their ancient city under the Zion
ist movement is made possible.
The opening up of the holy
places of sacred interest in the life
and tragedy of the Christ to
Christian inspection and contro'
is effected after nearly 700 years
of domination by the Moslems.
Joshua, 1.444 years before the
birth OF Christ, captured a portion
of the city. Under King David, it
later became the capital city of
the Jewish people.
In 599 B. G. Jerusalem was
taken by Nebuchadnezzar, king of
Babylon. This was followed by
the exile of the ISraelites.
Under Cyrus, king of Persia, in
536 B. c., Jerusalem was restored
and the Temple rebuilt. The over
throw of the Persian power by
Alexander the Great brought Je-
rusalem under the Greek domin-
ion. In B. G. 302 the whole of
Palestine came under the control
of Egypt.
In 63 B. G. Jerusalem came un-
der the control of the Roman EN-
pire. Years of changing masters
brought horrible disasters to the
ancient city. Successfully under
Antiochus, Seleuchus Philopater
and Antiochus Epiphanes, it felt
the rage of these contending
parties.
This resulted in the revolt under
the Maccabees, until in 63 B. c.,
when Pompey brought the city
under the control of Rome.
In 70 A. D., then foretold by
Christ, the city was destroyed
under Titus. 1t was the most dis
astrous siege of all human history.
Under Constantine the Great
Christianity gained world power.
In 637 A. d. the Moslem power
arose and the Holy City passed
under their control.
In the year 1000 A. d. began
the era OF crusades, seven in all.
Jerusalem was captured by God
frey de Bouillon in A. D. 1899.
The city was retaken by Saladin
in 11S7 and the Ottoman Empire
has retained it's hold up to the
present British occupation.
Notable events in the great Pal
iestine campaign is the gradual
capture by the Allied armies of
such noted sacred sites as Hebron,
associated with the history of Alb
raham, progenitor of the Jewish
race, GAIA, where Samson stole the
gates of the city, and Joppa, an
cient seaport.
