Once more let me remind YOU
that the things you loo k ahead to
are never like you think they are
going to be. You can read a de.
scription of a place you have
never seen, and you. think YOU
know just how it looks. But when
you really see the place with your
own eyes it will hardly resemble
the mental picture you had form
ed of it. And that is just the way
it will be with the future events
that the Bible tells about. They
will be SO different from the COM
mt n conception of them that they
will scarcely be recognized when
they come. The Last Trumpet.
the Judgment Day, and all these
things, will probably be nearly
over before the people realize
whatis is happening.

You can generally tell pretty
well how much truth any reli-
glous doctrine has in it by
watching to see what sort of
people take up with it. IF the
big rich and prominent people
and leaders of the land take it
up and help spread it-you bet
ter let that alone. But if it's
mostly the poor common folks
that accept it-then it's all
right. But the poor heard

WHAT is 'sNORMAL," ANY
HOW?

I find that a considerable num-
Der of the "stand-patters" are
expecting the world to gradually
get back into it's old channels
and run on just like it did before
the war. "Get back normally
as they express it. And they
think that nothing can be NOR
mali unless it is just like it was
before. They seem to entirely
lose sight of the fact that the
world is continually changing,
and that it never back-tracks it
self, This has been true to some
extent all through the ages, but
1t is even more true to-day.
For six thousand, years we
moved very. slowly. and it took
u.s. a long time to pass a given
point. But having once got
past 1t, we never went back to
It. For almost the entire six
thousand years the world trav-
elled at an OK cart gait. But now,
please yer honor, it is travelling
At electric speed. Whereas It
used to take thousands of years
10 pass through one normal"
condition and enter another one,
the same distance can now be
covered in a very few years.
The length of time we stay in
any one place or condition Of So
ciety is in exact inverse ratio
to the speed at which we are
travelling.
And having passed a thing, we
never go back to it. The condi-
tions that obtained before the
war were normal then, but
they will never be normal"
any more. We have used those
things and left them behind,
and we will never go back to
them.
After the water has turned the
mill, it never turns THAT mill
any more. But the same water
may go on and turn ANOTHER
mill.
And so the old conservative
and stand-pat folks who are ex-
pecting us to get back to pre-
war conditions and stay there
are in line for a mighty big sur
prise. They might just as reas-
onably ask the giant oak to
crawl back into the acorn or the
grown man to become a little
boy again.

THE FORD PHILOSOPHY

- - ASA~s - AA4AASh1OA = A4 n
And our friend Henry Ford
has started a paper. Or rather,
he has bought and overhauled
one that was already started.
The Dearborn Independent,
Dearborn, Mich, was just a local
sheet, but Henry Ford touched
it with his magic wand, and it
suddenly became a national in
stitution. The sleepy little post
office at Dearborn has had to
wake up.
Of course Henry has a hired
editor, and all that, but he has
set aside one page as his very
own, and on. that page each
week he prints his own. ]. ideas
and opinions about things in
general. And it is simply won

things. You wouldn't think
that a mechanical and business
genius would be much of a
writer, but you WI have to
make an exception in the case
of Henry Ford.
Frol, purely human and ma
terlal standpoint, the clearest
thinker and the soundest reason
er in America to-day is nobody
but Henry Ford.
Of course I don't suppose
Henry takes any stock in ; the
Bible prophecies. So. far as I
have noticed he has not men
toned that subject. Like so
many others, he expects us to
have a man-made Millennium
some Of these days right away.
In which he will be disappoint-
ed, OF course. But I can say
this much for Henry-if it were
possible for mans ideas and
plans to bring the Millennium,
Henry's ideas and plans would
stand about the best chance of
any.
And remember this: Ford is
not an idle dreamer. He is not
visionary and impractical. He
has used his ideas in his own
business and has made a wonder
full success. He has proven that
they will work when given a
chalre. The Ford Philosophy
extended to the whole world is
just what the world needs.
But the reason the Ford Philo-
sophy cannot be applied to the
whole world just yet is because
OF the Unborn selfishness and
meanness of human nature.
Ford can apply his philosophy in
his own business because he can
control his own business, but he
cannot apply it to the whole
world unless he could control the
whole world.
Some of these days pretty
soon there will come Ruler who
can control the entire world and
compel it to do as he says. and

HAS GOD GOT A "PLAN?''

- A&AANS
The average religious person
OF these days has a very COM
mon habit Of speaking of Goods
eternal plan," or Gods divine
plan," and yet when you sound
these people right down to the
bottom they don't actually be-
lleve that God has any "plan. !"
They seem to think that the
whole mighty universe is Just
drifting along hap-hazard so
far as God is concerned, and
that NAN does all the big plan
ming and carrying out plans. f'ss<
Now Of course man THINKS
he is doing it all, but rs HE :? T
think you will find, if you look
into it. carefully enough, that
back Of all mans big boasting
there stands q DIVINE ORDER
that causes even the wrath Of
man to honor it. Nations can
rise into power, and as quickly
fall into decay. Men can be-
come great and sway the multi
tudes. But neither men nor ma
tons can do any Of these things
without following out a program
that God decided on before the
world was. God has made his
program big enough to give man
all the room he needs for exer-
clsing his own free will in every
thing he does; but still that di-
vine program hens him in like
a fence and he can't get out. In
the long run everything that
man does must shape itself to fit
the divine plan.
Yes, God has a plan and an
order for everything. He has
given us in the Bible a complete
outline of the whole program
from the>beginning to end. The
Bible is just full of numbers and
dates and periods of time, all set
down with almost mathematical
certainty, when you once learn
how to look for them. But the
average person who claims to be
familiar with the Bible is entire
~ ignorant of all those things.
Nlnety-nine preachers out of a
hundred don't even know that
such things are in the Bible.
They don't even have any sort
of comprehension of the wonder
full type" idea that runs like a
silver cord through the Book,
making it possible to figure out
many things that have always
been considered hidden" AL,
most every act, circumstance or
event in the Patriarchal and
Jewish ages was type of some
thing to come later. You will
notice that many things con-
corning the lives and doings of
the Patriarchs are told in such
minute detail that it seems al
most as dry as reading a govern

then the Ford Philosophy, with
many improvements, will be put
into operation everywhere.
That will be the Good Time we
are looking for, and it isn't very
far off.

SUGGESTS USE
Of 3 TRACTS
AS MEMORIAL
Model in Clay Being Shown
Here to Give Idea
of Plan
PARK PLAN 2 E IS POPULAR
On Wonderland, Gregory and
Hayes Tracts as the Pro-
posed Site

In order that the people of the city
may get a comprehensive idea of his
plan for a soldiers and sailors me-
mortal, Mayor Frank Dorsey has
caused to be made model in clay of
the memorial which he has suggest
ed as a tribute to the young men of
this city who took part in the great
war.
The model is now on exhibition in
one of the windows of Reynolds
Brothers store, where it is shown to
splendid advantage and it is attract
ing no end of attention. Peter G.
Olsen and DR.. Fritz Abegg designed
and furnished the model from ideas
submitted to them by the mayor.
The plan of Mayor Dorsey calls for
a memorial park to be established on
the Wonderland Park, Gregory and
Hayes tracts which are already own
ed by the city, having been purchased
several years ago at total cost of
100000.
The mayor thinks it is high time
that the city got some benefit out of
that investment and in order that full
advantage may be taken of the loca-
ton he advocates building bulkhead
of stone or timber along the bulk
head line and filling in behind 1t. The
bulkhead line is, shown on the model
and 1t goes out a distance of 400 feet
from the present bank at the foot of
Second street and runs 1900 feet out
from Brighton avenue. BY the filling
in process there is gain to the city
of land that could be laid out into
approximately 168 city lots, each of
which would be rs by 100 feet.
The total frontage on the Raritan
of these tracts. including the street
ends, is 1895 feet, more than a quar-
ter of a mile. With regard to riparian
ri
rights to 425 feet and the balance can
doubtless be secured or leased from
the state board because of the fact
that il is to be used for park pur-
poses
On the property thus laid out the
mayor proposes to establish one of
the finest parks in this section with
facilities for recreation and enjoy
ment of every person in the city.
First of all, of course, there will be
a monument, the cost to be made up
by popular subscription, to be erect
ed to the boys who died in the serv-
ice. The monument as proposed will
cost in the neighborhood of $4,000
and will be Sc feet high. That will
be an expression of gratitude from
the citizens of Perth Amboy to their
sons who made the great sacrifice.
But for the boys who come back and
their families the rest of the park
will be devoted and some of the
things meant for their enjoyment fol-
low:
There will be a bathing pavilion
with provision for 700 rooms: a bath
ing pool for the kiddies. an athletic
field and baseball diamond, mall in
front of the monument that will ac-
commodate from $500 to 1000 per-
sons. These and many other features
the mayor thinks will commend his
plan of a memorial to the people.
However, the idea that he offers is
only a suggestion and he in anxious
to have the matter thoroughly ex-
plotted so that the very best plan may
be finally adopted.
