SKILLED LABOR
HERE RESPONDS
TO u. S, APPEAL

The war bureau office in the First
Bridgeport National bank building
was turned into a recruiting office Sat
urday. Large numbers of skilled work
ers who last evening listened to the
arguments of the four-minute speak,
ers in the various theaters of the city
urging enliStments in the Ship-build-
ing work besieged the Office this
morning anxious to be enrolled. Each
man that applied was told to write
a letter to the bureau setting forth
his qualifications. The bureau will
keep in touch with the needs of the
government for the shipbuiIding work
and these men will be sent for as fast
as places are secured.
Owing to the vast amount of bust
ness done at the war bureau office it
was stated today that mail inquiries
will receive attention as fast as a
personal visit to the Office for enroll
ment as all recruits must file a writ
ten application.
Many of the speakers after deliv-
secured the names of many men in
terested in the work and these will be
turned over to the war bureau. The
next set of speakers to make appeals
for workers in this branch of the gov
eminent service are scheduled to APP
pear at the various theaters on Mon
day evening.

The balloon was guarded by three
Austrian chaser airplanes- These were
engaged by three Italian fighting ma
chimes while AncilIotto diVed straight
at the balloon, at which he opened
fire with incendiary bullets at range
of about twenty yards. At the same

BIBLE STUDENTS
SAY WAR is TO
END ON MARCH |.
That is Way They Interpret
Allegory of Beast in Book
of Revelation.
The war will end March 1.

At least that is what the very latest
OF the war prophecies declares, &C
cording to those who have studied it
1t is not really new prophecy eth
er, for it is part of the Book of Revel-
alton, and Biblical students have been
interested in it for some time. The
recent peace talk and the reports of
strikes in Germany has made many
believe that it will prove the first ac-
curate forecast of the termination of
the struggle.
The part en- which the prophecy is
based is as follows:
And 1 stood upon the sand of the
sea, and saw a beast Else up out of
the sea, having seven heads and ten
horns, and upon his horns ten crowns,
and upon his heads the name of bias
Phemy.
"And the beast which I saw was
like unto leopard, and his feet were
as the feet of a bear, and his mouth
as the mouth of a lion; and the
| dragon gave him his power, and his
seat, and great authority.
''And I saw one of his heads, as it
were, wounded to death; and his
| deadly wound was healed; and all the
world wondered at the beast.
And they worshipped the dragon
which gave power unto the beast, and
they worshipped the beast, saying.
Who is like unto the beast? Who
is able to make war with him.
And there was given unto him a
mouth speaking great things and BIAS
| Dhen1ipS. and mower was given INTO
him to continue forty and two
months"
The most striking part of the
prophecy is the reference to the for
ty and two months" which is to be
the time of the beasts" power. The
beast (Which is the German Emper-
orr has continued Il months since
. he declaration of war in August, 1914
