Of talk I am giving you this timei
If you believe my New Message

THE Finished Mystery"


Several readers have asked me
to say what I think of the book
The Finished Mystery.
We'll, to be right plum plain about
it, | think it is a great big little old
humbug, an unmitigated fraud, a
shame and disgrace TO the good
man whom it tries to claim as it's
author.
The late Pastor Russell wrote
six books of Scripture Studies that
are we'll worth the careful study of
every person in the world. They
r not absolutely free from error,
but they are so much nearer the
truth than the average book on
the subject that they deserve to be
more widely read and understood.
Butsince the death of Pastor Rus
sell the men who have pretended
to carry on his publishing work in
Brooklyn have simply run the
thing in The ground. They have
gone ahead and issued a seventh
volume' called "The Finished
MI stery' in which they make
statements that Russell never
would have made and they claim
things for him that be never claim
ed for himself. The book pretends
to be a posthumous work of Rus
sell, but it is not SO. To be sure, a
large part of it consists of quota
tons from Russell's miscellaneous
writings, but The quotations
are misapplied and misinterprsted,
and the compilers have putty in
enough of their own wild ideas tc
spoil the whole thing. Part of the
book is seditious and all of it is
dangerous. | an glad the govern
ment has taken action to suppress
the humbug.

Book Department

For some time pastI have been
receiving so many inquiries about
the various books on prophecy
mentioned in Good News that
| have decided to establish a reg
ular Book Department and under
take to supply my readers with a
few Of the best books along these
lines. [ will handle and supply the
books at publishers prices, or
less, merely as al accommodation
to the readers Of Good News.
The world lis full Of books on
prophecy, but most Of them have
been rendered obsolete and out
of date by the mighty events of
these last days. Only a very
few prophecy books1 are able to
stand the test Of the actual fulfil
ment that is now going on around
US. These are the books that I
propose to handle, and [ trust
the readers Of Good News will
buy and read these books and
give careful heed to the mighty
message contained in them.

The Great jubilee.

A.8H i
feel impressed to keep right on
telling my readers about the types
and shadows of the old Jewish or
dor and how they are to be fulfilled
IN a later Age.
God began to create types right
at the very beginning when He set
apsrt the seventh day as a Sabbath
Of Rest. That seventh day Sabbath
was a type, and it moves ahead by
Gradual steps to the great Thous-
and Year Sabbath of the earth.
Every seventh year was a Sab
bath Year, and then every seven
Of the Sabbath Years led up to the
Year of Jubilee, which occurred
each 50th year. If any Jew had
lost everything during the past SO
years it automatically came back
10 him or to his children in the
Year of Jubilee. If any Jew had
accumulated great wealth during
the same period he had to give it
all up when the Year of Jubilee
came. Everything was then adjust
al and eoualized and everybody
could take a fresh start.
That was a good law even for
that time, but the best thing about
it is that it was a type of the Great
jubilee which is now about due.
We get the time of the Great Ju.
bilee by the same rule of mathe.
mates by which the Jews got thei,
50-year Jubilee-by merely get
ting the square root Of the one
before it. The square root of sew.
en- gave them 40, and so when the
10th year was finished the mex
was the Jubilee .
Now we begin where their las
5o.year Jubilee ended, and we ge'
the square root of so and it tells
US when the Great Jubilee is du'
to begin. Many great Bible schol
ars have figured over it and the,
all agree that it comes right abou
low. And if you will Just look I'm
DER the surface a little you will SCI
everything shaping toward it
There will be no more millionaire
and no more paupers. l could tel
you just how this will be done
but | believe I'll let you guess a
1t awhile longer.

American or French Girl?
Which is Best?-QuestiOn Answered
BY a Lad of The A. +. +.

My conception of American girls
has not been changed by the dispo-
sition Of French girls, but by the
behavior of the girls We left behind
US. l don't believe that the girls at
home have been as steady in the
rear rank as We have been in the
front. We have been through all
the horrors OF war. | have seen
many touching things. but the sad
dest of all is to see some bright,
handsome fellow receive letter
from home, supposed to be his only
comfort, tear 1t open with a smile
Of joy on his face, read the last lines
with tears in his eyes, and remark TO
his comrades. She is married, and L
wish to God l had never lived to see
it."
Figure up the thousands of like
circumstances in our grand army,
and ask yourself the question. whose
opinion would not change under such
evidence? And further more, they
fail to trust us as We do them. But
when you ask ne if French girls are
more pleasing than American girls, |
answer no. Nothing is more pleas
ing than a real, sweet American
girl They are the theme of thou
sands of A. E. F. dreams. The lon
ger We stay, the more We think of
the girls we left behind us. Though
We have nothing but our dreams to
remind us how they look, we won't
compare them with the Fernch girls
as sweethearts.
Everybody who went over the top
had a most beautiful vision before
his eyes. 1t was the vision OF his
old folks at home, and his sweet
heart The boys over here value
most highly the girls back home and
never could a French girl capture
the boy who has a sweetheart in the
are exclusively feminine, but their
alteration for American boys only
shows their appreciation of what we
are doing for France. lt the case
were vice-versa, our girls would be
far superior, both in kindness, adora-
tion and hospitality.

am thinking of home so much since
the ending of the war, but have plen-
ty of work yet to do. There are lots
of fellows who will never see home,
as they have been shot down in bat
tie. 1 am not going to worry so much
about home, for I will be home some
time before long, SO take care OF
yourself the best you can until l

to worry you in regard to the war, for

PLAN FOR RELEASE OF
FORMER EMPLOYEES
Employers Who Want Their OH Men
Back in Former Places Can Aid
In Getting Their Release From the
CantOnmentS.

The United States Labor Bureau
has made arrangements to aid as far
as possible in the discharge or soldl-
ers in the cantonments of the United
States who are assured of receiving
their old positions by former en-
ployers if these employers will do
their part toward getting the request
for the return of these men started
in the right channel
If the former employer who de-
sires the return of their old employees
to take up their former positions,
will make a request to County Agent
c. E. 1eathers, and he will take this
up with the Employment Serviee Of
flee at the Camp with which the man
is located. The whole scheme has
been arranged in such a manner as
omake it possible to get a very
quick return of these soldiers where
their former employers make It an
assured fact that they will get back
in their old positions, as it is propos-
ed to discharge the men in the can
tonments who will be guaranteed
employment on reaching home.
1t is the intention of the Govern
ment, as far as possible, to discharge
the men from the service who will
get back their old places without
loss of time, and the applications OF
these men will be the first acted up
on by the Government.
AfTidavits will be filed at the Coun-
ty Agents office. You can get the
proper papers flied out. and thus get
your labor back for the early spring
work. Give this matter prompt at
tention.
