Shadows Of Coming Event-latter
Day Scoffcrs Contradicted by the
Signs OF the Times.
To the Editor
The scoffers at Gods Word, Of whom
Peter speaks his prophesy. declares
that "all things continue as they We're
from the beginning of the creation.' 2
Peter ga. They profess 70 see no
marked change in the course Of events
10 signs of the times heraldng the
spired writer says OF them that
they arc Willingly ignorant" 1t is
possible to be willingly ignoran- OF
even the most. evident truth. With
| the eyes shut, it is impossible to see
anything.
There can be no excuse for ignor-
ance OF the fact that all things have
not continued as they were from the
beginning OF the creation. It is true
that for thousands of years 10 mark
ed change took place with respect to
the knowledge of the arts and scienc-
es: no men lived in the days OF George
Washington very much as they did
in the days of Abraham. They fought
their battles and hunted with differ
ent Weapons; but in other respects
there was nothing to indicate a mark
ed distinction between the civilization
OF the eighteenth century A. d.. and
that OF a thousand or Two thousand
years earlier.
Great events had however, occurred
in political and in the physical worlds.
The Empire of Rome had passed and
the ten kingdoms foretold in the pro-
phecy Of Daniel had taken place. A
revolt against the doctrine OF the di-
vine right of kings had begun TO make
Roadway in the world. Absolutisnl
in both state and church had been
terribly shaken and to large extent
dls&redited among nations. And: near
$thcr close OF HeS,eighteenths century
great signs had appeared in the hea-
,vens; the SUN lad been mysteriously
darkened and The; moon at the same
time had tbeen, blottet ont of the; sky,
and next appaaredSas ball OF blood.
But as we come down to "the last
days" at which time these scoffers
were to appear, q great change is to
be noted in the civilization Of the
world. No longer do men live as their
ancestors lived Il thousand years be.
fore; no longer do things continue to
move in their accustomed channels
and whatever excuse could have been

made before the assertions OF scoffers
there is no possible excuse for them
now. If George Washington could
arise from his grave and look out ov-
err the world since the close of the
eighteenth century would he affirm
that. all things had continued and
were now going on as they had from
the beginnings Of creation? Probably
he would be impressed above all other
things with the rapidity of travel and
communication over all parts OF the
world. Speed is certainly the chafact-
eristic of this age. Men live their
lives at a rapid pace. 90. T.
This, however, does not contribute
to the happiness of the human race
or to their health, Or to their morality.
When we come to inquire what good
purpose is served by the lightning
rapdity with which things are done
at the present time we can give no
reasonable answer except that it has
come about in the fulfilment OF the
prophecy to prepare the way for the
setting up of the kingdom Of Christ.
All the world must be warned OF
the coming OF the day OF God. While
that was yet, far in the future. there
was IU IlGCu LHdl any IlSdIS oIOuIu
exist for accomplishing such work
But whSu that great day is nigh at
hand and when the generation is
reached which IL to behold the return
of Christ in the clouds OF heaven
then some means must be available
for giving warning to the world in
tho time of that generation. God has
prepared the means today, and he has
been and is, preparing the world for
the coming OF the warning by the
| work Of the explorer, Of the Bible so,
Ecieties, of the statesmen and OF the
Inventor. !, j. {
r. Let us not then be among the scoff,
ers, saying, Where is the promise OF
his ,coning%' Neither letauS be OF
those who say we cannot tell whether
his coming, VILE take place tomorroW
or at the end Of ten thousand years.
ELet eus not, shut our; eyes, TO- the signs
I Of the times and the plain ful'ilment
of Bible prophecy pointing TO the cv'
Gnt. ~ ,Ettt .
The promise is "This gospel of the
kingdom shall be preached in all The
world for IL witness unto all nations;
and then shall the end come" Matt.

SKIM MILK FOR THE. CALF.

Although whole milk is undoubtedly
The best feed for young calves, yet be-
cause oLthe high price paid for butter
fat 1t Is not always the most econOm-
zeal. point out the dairy husbandrymen
at Iowa State college. A system of
feeding employing skim milk. grain
and good hay. they say, will raise
calves that are as good as calves fed
them is much less. ~
1t is probably best to- allow the calf
to- remain with! It's dam: for, two .or
three days. Then feed it whole milk
until It is about 8 weeks old. giving 2
10! pounds of. fresh, warm milk 3
times day. AT this age begin to, sub
stitute skim milk for whole milk. feed.
Ing twice day. Make this gradual
and complete It when the
calf Is 6 tot weeks old. At this time
II should be receiving IL to lG pounds
pf warm SKINNED milk q day.
I. Do not -4inc rea Sc the allowance nf
mix too rapidly, as overfeeding will
cause digestive troubles. Continue the
skim milk feeding until the calf is Z
or months old When on full feed il
should be receiving l6 to IS pounds
per day. ,. - - r
Calves will begin to eat a little, grain
when but few weeks old. A valuable
grain mixture consists OF equal parts
corn, bran and oats, with small
kamount OF oil meal. Crack the corn
atntlrst, but later feed it whole. Either
whole Or ground oats can be used. In
addition, feed good mixed hay.

come" and, to another man, you
stay" regardless OF the individuals
wishes in either case. This discrimi-
nation will be applied in such way
that only those of certain ages, OF sat.
isractory physical fitness and Of eco
nomic freedom shall be sent to the
front. 1t will be used to keep in their
civil pursuits all those who can be of
greater service to the nation in that
capacity than carrying a bayonet!
! Those with valid moral or religious
| objections to military service also will
| be exempted.
The list of occupations which will
exempt men from the trials OF the
| firing line is subject to revision at
any time. The idea of OccupatioHal
exemption, however, is basic. 1t is
| founded on the experience Of every
power in the present war. and Is due
to the modern condition of warfare
in which organization of a. nations in.
dustries is as important as formation
OF its armies. Because of failure to
tselect properly, France and Great
Britain We're compelled months after
the war began to send back from the
front hundreds OF thousands of work
men whose services we're vitality need
ed in the industries that fedsahe war
machine. In the case Of Great Britain
no record had been made of the quail
ficati0ns Of the men enlisted, so the
iiob OF getting the right men out Of
Ethe ranks and into the factories was
q wracking one. No. only was the
time and the effort and expense of
| training these men wasted, but the
country suffered and the army itself
suffered through their absence from
the factories, where all the time they
belonged.
! The government will cause all young
men within certain age limits to reg
| lister. The age limits may be expanded
at any future time if that is deemed
Unnecessary. After they are registered,
tie government will apply its stand
ardized exemption rules. The married.
man and the man with dependents will
be stricken Off. The religious scruples
of some against war WIG be investi-
gated. and If found to be- genuine will
entitle those men to exemption. The
men needed badly on the farms. in
the munitions faotories,& son:the rail-
roads Orsin other important lines OF
Industrial wsofk WIZ. kef illuminated.
Them the physically unfit will be
moved aaiie. And the remaining NoNng
men will have to serve III the army.
| If not all OF, them are needed at once,
the required number may he filed out

WINTER EGGS AT SUMNER PRICE

One step in the thrift program
which can be taken right now by the
housewife is the waterglassing of eggs
to preserve them for winter use, sug-
gests the poultry men at Iowa State
college. 1t costs but a cent dozen
to preserve eggs by this method,
for more than year. They can be
used to replace strictly fresh eggs for
nearly all purposes. r.-,

soc to 81 a gallon at any drug store:
