RUSSO-JAPANESE
WAR IS FORECAST
Europe Declared Concerned
Over Tokio's Policy in
China.
BY Radio to The Star

BY Radio to The Star
PARIS, France, April 26-European
diplomatic circles are much worried
over the Far Eastern situation.
1t is believed that Japan intends to
occupy Tientsin and Peiping, separate
North from South China, and organize
a new government at Peiping, under
Henry Pu-Yi, former boy emperor and
now chief executive of Manchukuo.
1t is reported further that the
japanese plan to seize the whole of the
Chinese Eastern Railway without COM
pensation to Russia, which possesses
joint interest.
new RuSSo-JapaneSe war in which
Japan would attempt to occupy Vladi-
vostok and the Siberian maritime
provinces is considered imminent by
some well-informed observers on the
spot. Such war, it is thought, might
cause the collapse of the Soviet regime.
This supposition gives point to recent
German diplomatic soundings as to
whether Poland might be willing to
cede the so-called corridor to Germany
ana take as compensation the Russian
Ukraine, including Kiey and Odessa.
The present leaders of anti-Soviet
policy are believed to be Great Britain.
Japan and Germany, while France and
Poland now tend rather to favor
Moscow.

THE MARYLAND BIBLE SOCIETY'S CORNER
''The Word of Our God Shall Stand Forever

We shall now turn our attention
away from the various ancient trans
lations of the Bible to a consideration
of the book itself.
The Bible is often referred to as
library of sixty-six books, thirty-nine
of them comprising what we know as
the Old Testament, and twenty-seven
the New Testament. A simple men,
DRY system for retaining these num-
bers is found by linking them up with
the number three. There is multiple
of &c, the entire number of books in
the Bible. The Old Testament con-
tains 80 of these, and three squared,
or multiplied by itself gives 9. This
nine put in the units place and the 8
in the tens place will give 80, the
number of Old Testament books. Then
multiply by 8 and you have 81, the
number of books in the New Tesla
ment. Now, let US state it again: 80
books in the Old Testament plus q
books in the New Testament makes
total of &c books.
Considering these books as litera-
ture, they naturally divide as fol-
lows: In the Old Testament, seven
teen historical books, five poetical
books, seventeen prophetical books.
The New Testament is composed of
four Gospels, which tell the life story
of Jesus of Nazareth from slightly
different viewpoints. Matthew deals
with Jesus pre-eminently as the Mes
siah; Mark looks upon him as the
Wonderful person; Luke writes of the
Son of Man; John of the Son of God.

These Gospels are all that remain of
the biography of Jesus the Christ.
The book of Acts tells the story of
the founding of the Church.
The twenty-one Epistles, or letters
are doctrinal, and bear somewhat the
same relation to the Gospels that the
Talmud bears to the Jewish Scrip
lures.
Last of all comes the revelation
given to st. John on the lonely Isle
of Patmos, containing in its last
chapter that royal invitation to all
the children of men: "And the Spirit
and the bride say, Come, and let him
that heareth say, come, and let him
that is athirst come. And whosoever
will, let him take the water of life
freely"
The world owes it's Bible to the
Hebrew nation. The Bible rests on
three great promises or covenants,
the first to Abraham wherein God
promised that in his seed all nations
should be blessed. In the second the
Hebrew nation, sprung from the loins
of Abraham, were promised prosper
ity in the lond of Canaan if they
would be true to Jehovah. In the
third David was promised that his
family should reign over Gods peo-
pie forever.
The great purpose of these cove
nants was to bring into the minds
of men a belief in one true, living,
loving God.
Our study for next week will be
based upon the Pentateuch, or the
five books of Moses.
