PREACHER PREDICTS GREAT THINGS
TO HAPPEN DECEMBER II TO 20


miles per hour. The others travel at
varying speeds. A very unusual thing
| is to occur OH December II, 1919, when
the planets Neptune, Jupiter, Saturn,
Mars, Venus and Mercury will swing
around and pull on the same side of
the sun at given time. The earth Will
] be in such a position at that time
that it will be liable to receive
a very great shock. Since no one was
| living on this planet when all these
| planets were in that position before,
there is no telling what the outcome
may be. The moon could plunge away
from the earth and become an indie
pendent planet. The Bible speaks of
that. Or series of awful storms could
occur. But whatever happens, it will
be something very unusual. Everybody
should be ready for any emergency.
Owing to a strange grouping of six
/ mighty planets, such as has not been
in a score of centuries, the United
States next December will be swept
by the most terrific weather since HUI
man history began. 1t will be caused
by the biggest sun spot on record-a
sun spot that will be visible to the
naked eye. Since man began to make
records of events, no sun spot has ever
<
the aid of instruments. This one will
be. The sun spot that will appear
December II, 1919, will be a vast
wound IN the side of the sun. 1t Will
be a gigantic explosion of flaming
gases, leaping hundreds of thousands
of miles out into space 1t Will have a
crater large enough to engulf the
earth. Such a sun spot will be rich
; enough in electro agnetic energy to
fling our planet into a disturbance
without precedent or parallel. There
!, will be hurricanes, hghtnings, colossal
rains. It will be weeks before the earth
, will regain its normal weather condi-
! tions. There will also be gigantic
} lava eruptions, great earthquakes, to
: say nothing Of floods and fearful cold.
Be warned in advanced Tremendous
! things are going TO happen from Dec
: ernber II TO December 90, 1919, and
: afterwards.
Here are the simple, yet astounding,
? facts. It is mostly because of my study
) of the planets, which have revealed
certain results with mathematical GER
tainty. The planets, in their orbits,
swing in great echpses about the sun.
They are linked to the sun, and to
= each other, by chains Of electro-mag-
netic energy, whose compelling forces
2 counteract each other and hold each
e planet in its regular path. Whenever
, two planets wheel into such positions
that they pull together on the same
/. side of the sun or in opposition with
the sun between them, their united
t pull causes the suns gases to explode
t and leap out into space in a whirling
' volcano, which we call sun spot.
g These sun spots, in turn, cause storms
IN the atmosphere of our earth and
doubtless on other pGnets' as wall.
Two planets united ere enough to
\ cause small sIin spot and a small
storm, Three united will cause a lar
4 ger one; four will make great storm
indeed. But on December II, 1919, no
less than seven planets viii pull point
ly in the sun. These will include all
the mightiest planets, those with the
most powerful pull. Six of them-Mer-
curry, Mars, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn
and Neptune-will be in conjunction
grouped together in the greatest
league of planets ever known n the
annals of astronomy. Tkuy VII be
massed together in II. n;,~.,.' limit
OF twenty-six degrees OH the sane side
of the sun. Directly opposite, coming
n into opposition with this great league
viii be the huge planet, Uranus, anc
the six planets will pierce the sun like
a mighty spear. Our earth is outside
of the league at an angle Of nearly
ninety degrees-in perfect position Il
receive almost the full force of tht
monster electrical disturbance as il
leaps in to activity on what to US vii
be the eastern horizon of the sun:
disk. This means that we will get the
full strength of the storm when the
sun spot is at its worst, before thu
exploding gases have had time to di'
down. Such close grouping of planet:
has never been recorded. The Wholt
solar system will be strangely out o
balance What will be the outcome
Ny knowledge does not permit me t.
state beyond the fact that the storms
eruptions and earthquakes will be tire
rnendous in their strength and scope
Remember the date, December |
to 20, and after. Foster.
