 America, are doing as much 10 de- ktroy the peace of the world as the others Great Britain with her war ships and you with your refusal to join the League of Nations. Your country and mine are admitting that the problem of peaceful and right eous government is beyond human solution,
 Are we to accept the position as hopeless? We have proved that inc world Is face 10 face with another var this minute. There are more countries than one In which this may start. We buoyed ourselves up dur ing the past war with the thought that it was to be the last That was seven years ago and in all this time we have discovered only the futility of human effort. Humanity being poweress to accomplish the task there is only one source to which we can look. That Is God.
 "The Bible in its prophecy is not only superior to any other guide. but 1t tells ns how the thing is to be done. It paints the present unfor- tunate conditions. It promises the remedy. Tho remedy is Christ.
 "I made practice Of studying the prophecies of earlier events and l found all wewre fulfilled. Take the case of Ie Jews from their early | history up to the present minute now they are going back 10 the Promised Land Not only in Jew ish history but in Gentle history arc , the Bible prophecies being fulfilled, The prophecy of Daniel in the time | of Nebuchadnczzar through Babylon, the Medro- Persian, Greek and Ro- man empires you get all the phoph- ctic fufilment 10 the present day.
 Earthquakes Accepted as Sign.
 we find in the incarnation Of Jesus Christ, His crucifxion and res urrection, the signs He said would predict His return. They include the return of the Jews to this promised land of Palestine, the present actiyi- ties of the group Of Gentile nations, wars and rumors of wars, a. general state of disturbance ana earthquakes in divers places
 Tn all Bible prophecies concern ing the signs of the end of the age, earthquakes are a definite sign. In 1 nnnliti inria the very eve of His return, the earth quake is a pronounced feature.
 There is no such safeguard against panic as the Bilical petition. long to see leaders of the people recognize the fact. People who do see it, are lifted above the fear of these caiamitics,
 ''The real question Is not how our death is coming, but what IS our re- lation to God. We don't feel any alarm at these indications. Among primitive people there is always the idea that storm and earthquakes are an indication Of divine dlspleasure. This may be correct,
 "Great caIamities arc always link ed up with q Goddess and sinful state of human society. on the day when Gods kingdom is installed on the earth these things will stop. Time Not Far Distant ? This will come within the life . time of the present generation probably even within the lifetime O the older people. The signs are st pronounced the time cannot be fal distant. When we look back through the last 10 years, we find that the speed Of history is very much accelerated One year now is as much as 8 cen, tury in the past. The question i' | Prepare 10 meet thy God 5 in the person of Jesus Christ
 "Do you really mean literal personal. flesh and blood return through the skies?' she was asked
 T do. / The first coming was one Of weakness. Tho second will be one of power It will seem to be of . more miraculous nature.
 People ask me if it is scientifcal ly possible. We don't know what i' scientifically possibly. We can , limit the bounds of scientific possi bihty."
 Discussing the statement made by a lecturer that if heaven were or , the nearest planet and Christ hac travelled at the speed of a ray O light, 1ss ,hoo miles a second, said t' he the fastest possible speed in th' i universe. he would not yet have ar . rived, Miss Pankhurst said, "Th' speed of ray of light IS a hnit' philosophy. Christ ts infinite. W, are no judge of relative speeds Ligh is not the minimum speed. Tie figh of the elcctron fro none atom t , another. airplanes, radio ronmun : cation, all are scientific facts bu
