A Great Victory for co-EducatiOn.

After a twenty fiveyear fight the
most conservative of English univer-
stiles has yielded to the demand for
eo.education. Oxford. by a unanimous
vote of its governing authorities. has
decided 20 admit women students on
the same plane with men. \ genera
ton ago any such proposal would have
been scofred at as absurd Even in the
early wears Of the Goth century il
would have aroused a violent storm OF
opposition But sentiment has been
gradually moulding Itself in favor Of
co education during all'these years and
II has nov made itself overwhelmingly
manifest
II women may attend oxford. Is
there any other university the world
over which can permanently resist their
requests for admission The Older uni

encountered this question in any cru

them up as opposites. Now, if
YOU have got any sense at all,
why can't you see that the
REAL opposite Of LIFE is
DEATH? And why can't you see.
that the most extreme opposite
Of ETERNAL LIFE that any
body could conceive of would be
ETER NAL DEATH2 Let the
wicked remain dead as long as
the righteous remain alive, and
then you have the real opposites.
But your way of granting end
less life to both, and only chan
ging the CONDITIONS under
which they live-that does not
make opposites at all. Life and
death are opposites, but two diff
ferent kinds of life are not. They
are extremes, not opposites. You
can have wo~extremes Of the
same thing, but you can't have
opposites Of the same thing. Git
me?
Mister Trumpet says there
can't be any heaven of endless
JOY for the righteous unless
there is also a hell Of endless
torment for the wicked. Well,
well! If the devil and his al
legged hot place are as important
and necessary as all that, seems
like we ought to treat the devil
with great respect and look up
on him as a friend and benefac-
tor, because it is really the dew
il that makes it possible for us
to have a heaven to go to-. It
seems, according to Mister
Trumpet, that God would be per-
fectly helpless without the devil
to help him. And just think,
what a calamity it would be to
the saints if the devil should de-
eide to put out his fires and re-
tire from the hell business! He
Ecould thus wipe heaven plum off
the map, because heaven, you
see, couldn't exist nary minute
without a hell for it's "oppo-
site" Speaking Of slick ways
for the devil to, get ahead Of God
and wreck all of His divine plans,
what is the matter. with that
one? I'll bet a purity the devil
has never thought about that.
Seriously now, Mister Trum-
pet, amt you ashamed of your
fool self?
You remind me of the man in
a city hotel who was aroused one
night by the fire alarm. He
jumped out Of bed and jerked
on his breeches wrong side in

him fall, ran to him and asked

my attention to an article on
"Hell and Everlasting Punish
ment," that he wants me to an
swer in The Fool-Kfller.
The article starts out just like
all the rest of them-by assum-
ing the Immortality of the soul
to be a fact-and then trying to
bend every Scripture passage to
fit that theory. The references
given are the same old thread
bare things that the eternal
torment advocates have tried to

have been explained and answer
ed in these columns time after
time and it seems unnecessary to
repeat so often, hence I will pass
on to the last part of the article
where I find an argument" that
hasn't been used and answered
quite so often. It is called the
claw of Opposites," and I will
quote that part of the article
here and follow it with my Ill
sWer:
"There IS a fixed law which teaches
that to all things there must be al
opposite. This no intelligent person
will deny. We have in the physical
realm sorrow and joy, sickness and
health, cold and heat, light and dark
ness, life and death, male and female,
etc. This same law holds good in the
spiritual realm. There we have good
and evil, saint and Asinner, spiritual
death and spiritual life, Satan and
God, heaven and hell. The disputer
of the doctrine Of hell says there is
a place called heaven where the right
eous shall dwell forever, where sorrow,
pain and tears are unknown; a land
where sickness and death are strang-
es, and everlasting bliss and happiness
reign supreme; yet he fails to see that
if there is such a place, it must Of
necessity have it's opposite. To deny
u one is to deny both. This law declares
in u~nmistakable terms that there can
be no heaven unless there is a hell
that if everlasting happiness and joy
are to be the reward of the righteous,
then everlasting torment and punish
ment will be the reward of the wicked.
Men may, and do, reject Scripture with
the shallow excuse of mistranslation,
but here they meet their Waterloo, fol
there is no possible way under heav-
en- to overthrow or dodge this law of
opposites. I consider this to be one
of the strongest arguments in favor
of hell and everlasting punishment
that can be produced."-Gospel Trum-
pet
Now just watch me.

pets great argument left tc
make a greasy spot where
mash it. If that is the strongest
argument, then I pity the weak
est.
Mister Trumpet couples off {
lot of well-known ''opposites'
= such as life and death, health an6
sickness, JOY and sorrow, gooe
and evil, saint and sinner, ane
so forth. And then he takes thu
position that all these things
have always existed and always
must exist.

here Was your law OI OppO-
sites" at that time?
Mister Trumpet says that we
must have saints and sinners.
But when the first pair were
placed in Eden they were not sim.
ners-not until Satan came along
and persuaded them to commit
sin. The1 after they had sinned
they were both sinners, and
there was not a saint in all Gre
atiCn.
Where was your claw of oppo-
sites" at that time?
Mister Trumpet says there
must be both JOY and sorrow, or
else there can't be either.
What an unreasonable state
ment!
There was joy in Eden before
sin entered, but there was no sor-
row. There was health in Eden
then, but there was~no sickness.
There was life in Eden then, but
there was no death.
Where was your claw of oppo-
sites" at that time.
And if God was able to fix it
ONE TIME so that there could
be life, health and joy without
their opposites, don't you sup
pose God is able to have that
condition again?
Your great claw of opposites'
certainly did not hold good in
Eden before the fall. But when
Satan ~sneaked in with his evil
work, then all the bad things
were introduced as the result of
sin. They had not existed be-
fore. And God did not consider
the evil things necessary in order
that His good things might -ex-
list. Not a bit Of it. In fact,
these very evil things (sin, sor-
row, sickness and death) which
you say are necessary and must
always exist in order to support
your claw of opposites"-they
are the very things that Christ
came to destroy. He has prom
ised to restore the creation back
to the condition it was in before
any sin existed. And that will
certainly play smash with your
claw of opposites,"
The Bible says: 'The soul that
sinneth, it shall die"
Mister Trumpet says: "No.
the soul that sinneth shall live
forever, in order to support my
law of opposites,"
Phe Bible says: "Yet a little
while and the wicked shall not
be-"
Mister Trumpet says: eyes
they shall be. They jist GOT K
be, in order to support my Law
of opposites."
The Bible says: 'There shall
be no more sorrow"
Mister Trumpet says: eyes
there shall be sorrow right OF
and on. There's jist GOT to b,
sorrow, in order to support my
law of opposites."
But looky here, Mister Trum
pet, if you are really trying to ar
