S2O s2s—s3o " \ . " a ' ( -'4 | 'Stetson" "Schoble" and "Hawes" Hats 04 Market Street Harrisburg, Pa, **— 1 ■ . i ■' ' " ■ Russell spoke on "The Present War in I the Light of Bible Prophecy." giving the development of God's purposo as it has already been unfolded and is proph esied for the future. Dr. Russell ald: "When Israel failed in her mission God laid upon her the judgment of Gentile chastisement, which began with the captivity under Nebuchadnezzar, which period is called 'the times of the Gen tiles." Then God gave to men. through Nebuchadnezzar's dream interpreted by Daniel, a vision of the whole course of Gentile rule, as recorded in Daniel, chapter 2. It represents four world kingdoms. Nebuchadnezzar's, the Medo- Persian, the Greek empire of Alexan der, and the Roman empire. As history has followed the development of this vision iti all the great initial outlines, we are justified in expecting that the territory once occupied by the Roman empire will become a federation of ten states, five eastern and five west ern. corresponding to the ten toes of the image. Though the outcome of the present war cannot be forecast, it is noteworthy that the whole territory of the ancient Itoman empire is involv ed and there is the possibility of a new alignment along the very out lines of tills prophecy. "At all events, the vision will bo ful filled thus: First, the federation of 10 kingdoms; second, the restoration of Israel; third, a national Jealousy against Israel and the gathering of the nations for her destruction when will be fought the Armageddon of proph ecy, on the field of Meglddo, west of the Jordan river; fourth, this will be at the return of Christ In glory, when there will occur the judgment of the nations and the establishment of the world-rule of Israel. This will be the stone cut without hands that demol ished the Image. The Btory of the last siege of Jerusalem and the last battle of pre-klngdom times Is given in Zacli artah 14. Then Gentile domlpion wit* come to ail end and the kingdom will be given to the saints of the Most High God. "The prophecy of the '7O weeks' df Israel's destiny, in Daniel, chapter 9. also applies here. The 70 prophetic •weeks' represent seven years each, or 490 years, divided into throe groups, seven weeks, 62 weeks and 1 week. The seven 'weeks' or 4ii years was the period of the rebuilding of Jeru salem under Ezra and Nehemiah. The 62 'weekß' or 431 years, extend from that time, according to one .ctlronolo glst, to the very week of Christ's cru cifixion. Then the Jews broke with God. Time then ceases to be prophet In and the era of the Church begins, white one 'week' of Israel's destiny lies in the future. , Sees Israel Reborn "At some future time Israel will be given national existence, and a treaty will be made by a world power with her for seven years, which will be broken at the end of years. Then will come the assault on Jerusalem, the time of Jacob's trouble and the world tribulation in war such as has never been. After that \vill come the manifestation of Israel's Messiah and our Saviour and the glad kingdom days of the earth (Zacharlah 14)." At the close of the service many now friends said goodbye to Dr. Russell. • KILLED BECAUSE CAR STALLED Blnghamton, N. Y., April 2.—George F.
