BIBLE STUDY WOULD

That an intensive study Of Holy Writ
and a correct Interpretation Of it by
Wilhelm Won Hohenzollern would have
saved the world from war and that
monarch from ruin was the assertion
made last night by Evangelist A. S.
Booth, in his opening lecture at the
Queen Theatre.
The evangelist found in the book Of
Daniel a revelation Of the nations who
should rule the earth for 250O years.
after which he was Of the opinion that
Daniel prophesied the second coming Of
Christ.
The evangelist explained in detail his
Interpretation Of the broken image
described by Daniel, which he thought
meant the breaking up OF the Roman
Empire and the prophesy that never
again could one nation rule the world.
There was a large congregation pres
