THEM
Adventist Organ Levels Attack
on Prophecy of Christ's
Coming February 6

Despite a gentle rebuke from
the leaders of the Seventh Day
Adventist Church for the belief
that the end of the world will
occur February 6, dozen disciples
Of Mrs. Mary w. Rowan observed
the Sabbath apart from their
church in the home Of one Of the
"Rowanites" today.
A simple prayer service, led by
e. Aplin, leader of the Rowanite
movement in the District and
Maryland, and a reaffirmation Of
their beliefs in the divinity of the
Rowan prophecy, marked the
meeting of the disciples.
Expect Coming of Christ
The phenomena Of the solar
eclipse was viewed early this morn
ing by the Romantics as further full.
filling the prophecies Of Mrs. Rowan.
The eclipse was greeted with pray
ers by the members Of the Rowan
lite group.
In the past three months the
Romantics, both in Washington and
in other Adventist communities,
have sold their property and given
up their positions and trades to
prepare themselves for the end Of
the world and the second Coming
Of Christ, which they expect on
February 6.
In an attempt to check the
spread Of the Rowanite movement
in the Adventist center at Takoma
Park, the Review and Herald,
national organ of the Adventist
faith, has prepared a statement by
Francis Mcclellan Wilcox, editor
Of the Review and Herald stating
the official attitude of the church
toward the Rowan prophecy. Tho
statement will be published Monday.
AdVentists Set No Time.
Seventh Day Adventists have
never set a time for the Lord to
come nor are they engaged in any
such speculation or propaganda.
today" the statement will declare
Through the years there have
arisen from time to time those who
claimed to be Seventh Day Adven-
lists who have done this, and some
who claim to be Seventh Day Ad-
ventists are doing this at the pres
ent time.
'But this is entirely contrary to
the testimony Of the Holy Scriptures,
and Of the teachings of the RESPONSE
BILE leadership of the church,
1.-The evil effects following the
setting of time for the Lord to como
are legion the statement concludes.
sit creates disgust and unbelief. It
ministers to infidelity rather than to
faith"
Although Adventists believe that
the time of the second coming Of
Christ is near, officials declared to-
day the church does not recognize
that any sign will be given to man
setting the exact date of the coming.
Officials denied that tbs group of
Rowanites had been excommuni-
Gated from the Adventist Church.

Rents Not High, They Say, But
U. S. Salaries Have Not
Kept PAGES With Times

"Rents are not too high--Gov-
eminent salaries are too low"
This is the conclusion reached
by the Washington Association
Of Building Owners and Landlords,
one of the organizations which is
combating the Whaley bill to
regulate rents in the District of
Columbia.
The association today made pub
lie several charts in which an
attempt is made to show that the
rents charged at present in the
city are not exorbitant, and that
the increase is low compared with
other cities.
Comparison Of Pay Shown.
The various trades not represented
in the Government service. such as
hodcarriers, plasterers, and brick
layers, are shown to be receiving
compensation all out Of proportion
to the clerks in the Federal service.
Housing has increased less than
any other item entering into the
considerably less than the average
increase in all items combined,
which Is 60.2 per cent" the land
lords declare.
eff your salary has increased 60.2
per cent since 1914, you are in step
with the cost of living. II your
salary has increased less than 500
per cent, you cannot live on the
same plane that you enjoyed in 1914.
1.-THE Monthly Labor Review OF
September, 1924, lists twenty trades
where the 1924 hourly wage in
Washington is compared with that
Of 1914.
Trades Show Increase.
These trades have been increased
in pay from 81 per cent to 1913 per
cent. All these workers can well
afford the present cost Of living,
which has increased 60.2 per cent,
and rent presents no problem to
them, as their increases have been
from two to five times as great as
that OF housing
THE Government officer and en-
ploye Is confronted by an entirely
different situation. His salary has
increased but 20 per cent since 1914.
The cost of living in Washington
has made three times as great an
advance as Governmental salaries,
Housing. which has had the
smallest increase, has advanced be-
yond the reach Of Governmental
salary employees"

OLD ENGLISH FIREPLACES REPRODUCED HERE

pensive plumbing may be purchased
here also for those who cannot afford
the highest grade. but John p.
Gardner, proprietor Of the company,
advises putting the best possible
plumbing in house if one would
attract careful buyers.
Plumbing is being given more con-
sideration today than it has ever
given before in the American house.
Fifty years ago a bathroom was a
rarity, and the equipment of the best
bathrooms of that time did not COM
pare with even the inexpensive
plumbing fixtures Of today.
Exposed pipes collected dust and
invited water-bugs. and the wood
enclosed tubs were far from
sanitary. Today the bathroom equip
ment is planned for beauty
durability and sanitation combined,
and one may find all of these in the
fixtures sold by the Capital Plumb
ing Company.
AS a comfort feature, the auto
matio gas heater is not to be over
looked. for it heats the bathwater
quickly and economically when the
furnace is not in use and provides
a steady supply of hot water either
summer or winter.

Every one is familiar with the
necessity and use Of guttering, which
not only carries the water away
from the house but supplies the cis-
tern with soft" water so essential
for successful washing Of clothes or

kitchen stove however, is hardly
less important to home comfort, for
it not only prevents the soiling and
discoloration Of the kitchen walls
but carries away from the kitchen
all those offensive odors that arise
when cabbage. onions or other such
vegetables are being prepared for
the meal. With this hood, these
odors are confined to a limited space
in the kitchen; without il the menu
