Forty-Six Arrive Safely After
Anxious Time in
Germany

mit to a more rigid censorship. The
majority of the travelers, however,
leported that they had received stud
iously courteous treatment and de
clared that the stringent regulations
enforced were nothing more than
what was to be expected in view of
the situation. In several Instances the
arrivals told of special favors that had
been shown them during the list
week. As far as could be learned none
of the party had any information
about the fate of the Yarrowdale pris
oners and knew only of contradictory

booklet on the famous libel case in
which Mr. Russell figured.
The pictures shown each Sunday by
the denomination were scored by Miss
Palmer. She said Russell preached
about the second chance, which sho
declared to be without in
the Bible. Following a solo "Prepare
to Meet Thy God" by Prof. Roger Hick
| man, a number of conversions weic
announced. Miss Florence H. Hax-
I man sang "Where Will You Spend
| Eternity?"
| Large delegations from the First
United Brethren Church and from the
• Otterbein Church were present at tne
i service. Others who attended were
j Bishop W. M. Stanford, of the United
Evangelical Church; the Rev. Mr. and
j Mrs. Clyde Lynch, of the Unglefctown

Cold Water Brigade
"Every church has a cold water
brigade," said Evangelist Bodell, at
the Bodell-Maxwell meetings in the
Covenant Presbyterian Church. "So
sooner is there a little Are than they
pour on water. What the Christian
needs Is a bellows. The church to-day
has the members and the machinery.
What It needs is zeal. Says tho critic,
'Let's not have zeal without knowl
edge.' But I would rather have zeal
without knowledge than knowledge
without zeal, for the only man that
ndver makes a mistake is the dead
one."
The evangelist was preaching on
revivals, and he illustrated the condi
tions of revival from the Incident ol
Philip and the Ethiopian, showing that
God used Philip because he gave to
the Spirit of Ood obedience, faith,
zeal and exercised promptness In his
obedience. "He got there on time.
Had he been ten minutes late he would
not have found the Ethiopian in the
desert, and his mission would have
been a failure, declared the speaker.

"Mother's Prayer." Services will be

Count Von Reventlow
Says War With Kaiser
Won't Be Spanish Affair
Amsterdam, via Liondon, Feb. 21. —
Count Von Reventlow, writing In the
Tages Zeitung, discusses what he con
siders a possibility that President Wil
son might be induced by the pressure
of American workmen to declare war
on Germany, believing that all trans
portation difficulties would be removed
thereby. Count Von Reventlow says:
"If President Wilson believes he has
to declare war this will without doubt
be done with such a great and clever
use of the tom-tom that at tirst a so
called wave of enthusiasm will go
through the whole population. But
the question is what will remain when
the wave has ebbed and subsequent
weeks and months show that things
this time are quite different to the
Spanish war. The more effective Ger
man submarine war will proceed in
the meanwhile and the United States
will have to recognize that neither a
declaration of war nor energetic meas
ure* have removed the difficulties at
home or abroad."
Count Von Reventlow then criti
cises Ambassador Von Bernstorff's
farewell message to America. "We
cannot say," he writes, "that this ef
fusive talk of a heart overflowing with
friendship is opportune at the present
moment. It looks as if the ambassa
dor lost his sense of proper perspec
tive."
