Oct. 12, 13, 14, 15, 1920. at
Wewoka, Okla.
The Negro State Fair will be held on the above dates at the Ranch of J. Coody Johnson, six miles north of Wewoka. The Fair bids fair to be the greatest ever put over by the Colored people of the State. The location is an ideal one for this exhibition being located in the heart of a 2500 acre ranch, in the best agricultural district in the county or state. The idea of having a Negro State Fair originated with J. Coody Johnson, who is the founder and president of the Fair association. The object of the Fair is to promote and encourage agriculture and live stock raising among the Negro citizens of our state. Too many of our people are leaving the farm for the already over-crowded cities, and increasing the high cost of living, and in order to bring our people up to their true worth we are offering premiums for live stock, agriculture and domestic art Exhibits. The Negro has this assurance that he will have a chance to compete for prizes against members of his own race to be judged by judges of his own selection.
Here is a chance to encourage your boy and girl to do something that will be a credit as well as profit to themselves. Just what you produce and exhibit will be shown at the fair. If you have a fine horse, cow, pig or other domestic animal bring them to the Fair. The good housewife will have a chance to compete with other women of her own nationality, in cooking, needle work, and all other arts in which women are interested. Premiums will be given to the boys and girls Clubs for their exhibits. There is no better way to advertise your business, than by bringing an exhibit to the Fair.
The grounds are located on a beautiful elevation where you can see the surrounding country for miles, on J. Coody Johnson's vast ranch, the finest ranch and farms owned by any Negro in Oklahoma. The grounds are electric lighted, at night, and present a picture long to be remembered. It is easy of access, being on the main highway through Seminole County. State Highway from all points east and west, north and south lead to this Fair ground. A few gallons of gasoline will bring you in your "car" with the whole family to the greatest fair ever attempted by Negroes, here you can have four days of real pleasure.
Amusements of all kinds for all classes of people. A splendid race track is being prepared where horse races, auto races and cycle races will take place, some of the best horses owned by our people will be at the fair. Airplanes in which you can ride and see the whole country will make daily ascensions.

HAMPTON ALUMNI

(By Wm. Anthony Aery)
HAMPTON, Va., Aug. 12.—The members of the Hampton Institute Alumni Association at their final meeting in Golden Hall subscribed, in cash and pledges, within a half an hour $2700. Of this amount, $2,500 will be given to Hampton Institute to establish a permanent scholarship in memory of the late Dr. Booker T. Washington, who was graduated in 1875 and who founded Tuskegee Institute in 1881.
William M. Reid of Portsmouth, Va., president of the Association, presented Dr. James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute, a check for $2,500—the gift of the Association for the "Mary F. Mackie Scholarship," in memory of the teacher who helped so largely in the training of Dr. Washington.

COMMENCEMENT CULLINGS
Langston Summer Normal closed in a blaze of glory that will be reflected by the many student-teachers, who have gone from its walls to teach the youth of Oklahoma to be the future leaders of its race. The public school music department gave a very creditable and interesting evening under its leader, Mrs. L. C. Clork of Muskogee. The teachers entered into the spirit of the occasion with all the abandon of children. There was no hesitation nor stiffness every one taking part in songs of all seasons, play ground games, folk dances, etc. The exhibit of music (written) was indeed fine and reflected much credit upon the teachers and the school. The Baccalaureate address to the class of 1920 by Senator Goiobie, of Guthrie was indeed fine and awakened much enthusiasm and applause from the large and appreciative audience.
The choir rendered some fine selections, class day exercises of Wednesday night were out of the ordinary. It was a playlet conceived of fostered by Prof. Fort of Okmulgee, in which the President of the class after reading a book on the transmigration of souls, falls asleep and many noted characters appear to her after the play, the student body entertained the seniors with a reception which was very enjoyable. On Tuesday night, Miss Beulah Douglas, head of Instrumental Music department and Madame Shelor, Voice Department, gave a joint recital which was indeed fine. The voice and piano number called forth much applause and much credit is due the above named ladies for their work. After this recital, President and Mrs. Marquess entertained the faculty with an enjoyable reception. Mrs. Marquess is the soul of hospitality and no one left until way after the light blinked. Thursday was Commencement night and the address was made by Rev. Johnson of Guthrie and the diplomas were given by President Marquess after a very forceful and snappy address.
Mr. and Mrs. Saddler gave a beautiful reception to the class of 1920, and the faculty. Mrs. Saddler made a very charming hostess. Miss Kennedy, also entertained the seniors. This summer normal was said to be the very best held at Langston, every available space was occupied by teachers, even the new laundry housed many of them. Long live Langston!
No Color Question At Bible Student's Convention.
The Hon. Richard J. Hill, the well known writer on religious topics for The Tulsa Star, has returned to the city after attending the convention of the International Bible Students' at Columbus, Ohio and at Scranton, Pa. Mr. Hill says these meetings were attended by nearly 3,000 delegates and representatives of nearly every race on the globe were there. The presence of many of the most learned Bible scholars in the world made the meeting most important. He says one of the most remarkable incidents of these conventions was the entire absence of any question of race or color, every one was on an absolute equality. Mr. Hill enjoyed his trip in highest degree.

Identify Marquess Proposes to Endtain the Delegates Free Of Charge.
(Star News Service)
LANGSTON, Okla., Aug 12. Through the versatile enterprise and serious consideration of Prof. J. M. Marquess, President of Langston University, the Women of Oklahoma in connection with the annual meeting of the Women's Federation in this month are to have an opportunity altogether remarkable and unusual in their history. This association is called to meet at Langston, Okla., on Thursday and Friday, August 26th and 27th, and on this occasion, President Marquess, to quote his own words, has "assumed the responsibility of entertaining all the delegates to this Federation, free of charge." This no doubt unexpected proposition is it possible for the Federation to have for this year the greatest attendance in its history, for through this offer the delegates are confronted in the matter of expense, only by their railroad fare. The beautiful buildings and surroundings and the facilities of this great Oklahoma institution are to be placed at the disposal of the delegates, and amid such an environment there is every reason to believe that the deliberations of this body will be greatly facilitated. President Marquess is making every effort to provide for the entertainment of the members of the Federation and it is his hope that all the Women's Clubs in the Shale will send representatives to the meeting, thus showing appreciation of his gererous hospitality.
TO THE NEGRO PHYSICIANS OF
THE SEVERAL STATES:
The Hospital and Health Board of Kansas City has granted privilege to the Colored Division of the General Hospital, to establish, freep of charge, an Intensive Training School in pathology and Bacteriology to all Negro Physicians in the country for one month beginning September 1, 1920.
This is the first time such an offer has been made by any institution in this country. The Board has spent several thousand dollars in equipping the laboratory to make this work the most beneficial to the physicians from a practical stand point. Several hours during the day will be devoted to the work; besides clinics, covering the same line of disease dealt with in the laboratory, dealing with all phases of blood chemistry; preparation and administering of vaccines and Auto-thereapy. Specialists from different portions of the country will appear before the clinic and in addition to this treatment will be given a special course in municipal Hygiene, including the protection and care of the milk supply; the water supply and the handling of the garbage systems and the control of quarantines of all descriptions of municipality.
A coterie of assistants and specialists under the supervision of Dr. Win, J. Thompkins, who is Super-independent of the Hospital will aid in making this course what the physicians in this country most need. It is the purpose of this institution to help those men of the profession who desire additional scientific and technical knowledge so essential in deriving at a positive diagnosis in the handling of their case, thereby rendering high efficiency in their work with a high standing of the profession generally.
This in brief has become the measure of the Colored division of the General Hospital of Kansas City.

Editor Smitherman Improving.
For the past week, the editor and proprietor of The Tulsa Star, has been at the Park Sanitarium, Guffinie, Okla., under the experienced and expert care of the widely known physicist, H. W. Conrad, M. D. The latest word from Dr. Conrad indicates that Mr. Smitherman is improving and that after several weeks complete rest from his unfiring and constant labors in the Star print shop during the past several months, he will be able to return and replace his "guiding hand at the helm of the greatest paper in the Southwest." The editor is a sufferer from extreme nervous exhaustion, and his many friends will be glad to welcome him back to the Star helm.
MASONIC GRAND LODGE
CONVENES AT BOLEY
Many Noted Oklahomaans Attended Annual Session.
BOLLEY, Okla., Aug 10.—The St. John Grand Lodge of F. A. and A. M. met in this city at 10 o'clock a.m. in its 20th Annual Grand Session in the Masonic Temple. More than 300 delegates and representatives from sister states are in attendance.
Most Worshipful Grand Master Hon. R. Emmett Stewart announced that the delegates would assemble in convention for praise services to be conducted by Grand Chaplin G. A. Patrick, and to be presided over by P. stmaster H. Butler of Euraka Lodge, No. 14 of Guthrie, Okla. The Grand Lodge was opened in due form.
The Lodges sang:
"Best be the tie that binds, etc." And the acting Deputy appointed an appropriate number of he brothers to export the Grand Master to the Grand East. After a few well timed remarks the Grand Master selected A. D. Johnson of Vinita, S. Lewery, Huskell and J. L. Dixon, of Checota as a Committee on Credentials. D. W. Lewis og Kingfisher was made reporter.

(A. N. P. Service)
CHICAGO, Ill. Aug. 11.—There is such a thing as a fellow taking himself too seriously. For instance, when a chap starts a "movement" and then straightway swallows the "movement" and caimly announces, "And now I will lead the way out of the wilderness." It just now happens that the politician is in the middle. It has been his habit not only to take himself seriously but also to take everything else he could say his rapacious hands on. He is going true to form. But there is just this one ray of hope flashing cantwise aftward the political sides of the moment. Mr. Politician is beginning to call himself names. It both appear that there are two breeds of the species, the genius Northerinus and the genus Southernus. By some terrifically unsavory means the genus Southerninus has "beef" the genus Northerinus to the first serving of the political pie. The very devil is to play, as a consequence. With characteristic perspicacity of perception, Col. Perry Howard of Mississippi who, by the way, happens to be sitting at the first table, rushes to the defense of the brethren and heatedly announces that "What the race needs is worth and efficiency, courage and tact, and not leather-lunged geographical location." This is alliteratively crushing. But it is sufficiently sensible to serve the purpose we all have in hand to achieve. The election of Harding or Cox is the main question at issue. To be squabbling about jobs at the several headquarters is "small town" stuff and is, fundamentally, unseemly and at variance with the operation of common sense at this time. It is economic and political stability which is the crying need of the hour. Breac crumbs for the few may mean starvation for the many. No North, no South, but a united Race held to gether in the pursuit of a clear interpretation of the Constitution and a sound furtherance of the finer and fuller spirit of American life, constitute our aims, and, by the Heavens, we propose to have all of this and more. To h_1 with the jobs we want freedom.
"More War," is in the air. Should it come to us I feel certain that the "Colored man and brother" will respond to the call to arms with an unanimity of spirit which will sound the death knell to the further maintenance of the lynching disposition by a large and influential element of the American people. More peace to the ashes of lynching. Save your money. Only the other day the Pennsylvania Railroad discharged twelve thousand men from one of its main divisions and the rumor is that more are in line for discharge before the winter sets in. It is also announced that several of the big corporations in the West will discharge large numbers of men in the near future. Save your money. Coal and food next winter will go farther than automobile rides this summer. But then the Lord is our Shepherd, we should worry.—(W. H. A. Moore)

those attending the ceremonies, and all were deeply impressed by his eloquence. Mrs. J. S. Netter and Mrs. W. D. Williams and her daughters also attended the funeral of Mr. Hill. The Rev. Spears, Mr. A. L. Ritchie, and Mesdames J. G. Glinn, J. E. Cotton and E.

VICTORY CELERATION
PLANNED AT COLUMBUS
(Reciprocal News Service).
Asson as the adoption of the National Baptist Convention Program that was prepared by the executive committee in its Springfield, Ohio, session by the local people in the big victory celebration spoken of in the program to be held at the fair grounds in this city Friday, Sept., 10th. It has been learned through Dr. E. P. Jones, the President of the convention who resides in Evanston, Ill., that this will be one of the most important days of the session, and that the prominent men from all sections of the United States who have worked with the Convention for more than a quarter of a century will be among the speakers on the program. That Dr. L. L. Campbell of Austin, Tex., the head of the Baptist all over the state who has just reported that their five million dollar campaign had proven a success would be the principal speaker. In this victory celebration Rev. Dr. Hughes, who heads the local committee here said last week, that Columbus alone would donate five thousand dollars during the day. Ceremonies will take place in, the fair grounds where the state fairs are held annually and a number of brass bands from various cities in Ohio will be brought from all over the state.
Riot Reports Unfounded.
(A. N. P. Service)
CHICAGO, Ill., Aug., 11.—The riot reported by the daily newspapers between Colored men and Italians at Chicago Heights is without foundation. There was a fight between a Colored family and a few Italians when the latter went to the house of the Colored people looking for a Hungarian who was accused of having killed an Italian last week. The Hungarian had moved and rented to the Colored family.
There are about three thousand Colored men employed in the steel mills in Chicago Heights where a strike has been in progress among the Italians and this has led to some train and feeling which the news articles have magnified. Deputy Sheriff Sultan said there had been no clash.
The ugly riots reported at West Fortfort, Ill., and Denver, Colo., in which mobs are reported to have killed a number of people and destroyed thousands of dollars worth of property show the unceasing tendency of the American public toward mob violence and lynch-law, said a prominent Colored official today. The Government has set suplinely by while mobs have lynched Negroes and committed other atrocities upon us and may expect to reap a whirlwind from the seeds of discontent which its indifferent attitude has permitted to spring up.

Crops in this vicinity are at their best, with the corn made, and the cotton loaded with squares and the melon crop yielding bountifully, the farmers need to rejoice and send up their thanks to God.
The attendance at Sunday School on the 8th proved to be a record breaker. The adult class was at its best, being presided over by the pastor. The advanced class was well represented by the young men and ladies of the neighborhood, who discussed the lesson with much intelligence. It is with pleasure that I speak of the pastor., Rev. Henry Johnson in the highest terms. He has done much to uplift his people. He has progressed slowly but surely, as we know wonders can not be achieved at once; we must be satisfied to advance in improvement as we walk, step by step. The fruit best worth waiting for, often ripens the slowest. "Time and patience," says the Eastern poet, "change the mulberry leaf to satin."
The light fingered gentry of our section of town had a big week during the last six or seven days. The stealing was not confined to any particular part but reached from way out in the addition down to the busy section along Greenwood and Archer. Quite a number of persons are bemoaning the loss of hard earned savings, while the other fellows are having a brief easy time on "Easy Street."
The Ladies' Home Mission has been organized and it is proving a blessing to the people. The common life of every day with its cares, necessities and duties, afford ample opportunity for acquiring experience of the best kind. These sisters plan to entertain the public with a grand social soon for the benefit of human welfare.
Mrs. Thomas of 517 North Greenwood is one of the sufferers thru thieving depredations. While she was out for a few moments the other day, some scamp cut the screen door in the rear of her place, andl made a ge away with her cash box, and a gold band ring. Her loss is estimated at something like $75 or $100.
Mrs. M. Golett and grand-daughter, little Alene Johnson are spending a few days at Hartshorn visiting friends. They are expected to arrive home in a few days.
Mr. Robert Harris, proprietor of the East End Feed Stor, and one of the most highly respected citizens of Tulsa, will be more careful hereafter when he undertakes to hide money in his feed store. Early in the week he put a roll of bills and some other silver currency behind packages in his office, in a perfectly safe place, as he thought. A "gemman" by the name of Derby who was sitting outside, and looking in the front window, immediately had business over the telephone. Mrs. Bell of the Bell-Little Cafe, came in also to telephone while Derby had the receiver in his hands, and waited on him to get through. Mr. Harris and a customer then came in while Mrs. Bell was using the phone, and when it was necessary to make change, the absence of the roll of bills, silver and likewise Mr. Derby became evident. Mr. Harris had a warrant issued for the arrest of Derby and at the trial held last Thursday after noon, he was held for trial in the county court. The loss in this instance was about $75.
Mrs. Laura Bird who has been very ill at her home is much improved of this writing.
MIAMI, Fla., Aug 13.—A riot was started here last Sunday by 400 Bahama Negroes who charged the local police with an unwarranted killing of one of their number, Herbert Brooks, who had been accused of assaulting a white woman. The Bahamans declare that Brooks was innocent of the charge and threatened to burn the city. Troops are in the city and are patrolling the Negro residence section.

CENTER Tex., Aug. 13.—Lige Daniels, a Colored man, was lynched here last Saturday by a mob of more than a thousand. The mob stormed and wrecked the jail. Daniels was hanged on the limb of a tree in the court year. He was accused of assaulting a white woman.
Mr. Smith living in the 700 block of North Hartford was the victim of some sneak thief who made way with his watch and some money.
Jealousy Causes Killing.
CHICAGO, Ill., Aug. 11.—Dorsey Cambliss, the policeman who after a sensational trial was convicted of having lured Bertha Wiebeck (white) into a life of immorality was taken to the penitentiary recently to begin a five year term. Citizens were much interested in Chambliss' case because the daily newspapers made a race fight out of it, and strenuous efforts were made to aid Chambliss. Mrs. Emma Ross, at whose house the Wiebeck girl lived before the illness which resulted in her death, also went to prison.
CHICAGO, Ill., Aug. 12.—Two killings marred the peace of the Colored population in this city last Sunday. Jeanette McDuffy shot and killed her husband, Clarence, at the couple's home in south Federal st., and Eugene Cesterro, a Porto Rican shot and killed his wife at their home in south Park Avenue, and then mortally wounded himself.
Cesterro was declared to be insanely jealous of his wife by neighbors and is said to have accued her with intimacy with other men. The

couple quarreled frequently. The murder was discovered by a policeman. Mrs. McDuffy stated to the police that her husband was very cruel and often threatened to kill her. She said that he came home Sunday drunk and commenced to fight her. In the fear that he would kill her, she shot him. She is being held by the police.

The judgment here implies a trial,
because there can be no judgment
without a trial. There can be no
trial first without knowledge, for
the reason that even the laws of
the land do not permit a man to
be tried without his knowledge.

the ininds of the people from the

the reason why Spiritualism is so

we thank God this condition will

that we ean stile confidently that
within a few more years the dark

In the course of these articles we
conlidentially expect to show. to
the reasonable mind that the time
for the overthrow of Satan's Empire
is at hand, that the time for the
establishment of Messiah's Kingdom
is at the door, aiml in consequence

contitence that when the people

like unto the Garden of Eden, be

We have come to the point wher:
all thoughtful persons would de
sire to know why do the majority
of the preachers teach error? ‘Th
proper answer to this question i
a short way is found in the fifty
sixth chapter of Isiah 10-11 verses
be sure and read it. Ecelesisasticisn
or the Great Church System of th
world, is made up of Diverse anc
numerous Sect, and each one 0
these Sect has its own Clergymer
who teach Diverse and numerou'
theories, inconsistent with them
selves and each other, One clas
of preachers. (Priests) have lon
taught and do yet teach that a
death a certain class of men go t
Purgatory, there to remain for ai
iidelinite season, and that the
Clergymen have power to say
prayers and Masses to reieve then
from their Purgatory — sulfering
This has proven to be a_ fruittu
source of money making. This class
of preachers have always had their
members to understand that no one
is ever relieved [rom Purgatory un
der a thousand years, and thus the
Clergymen seta date so far ahead
that no living person could — ever
pay the bill and therefore the obli-
gation would descend from one
generation to another, Still anothes
class of preachers teach that God
Jong ago. fore-ordained and pre-
‘destined that a few persons would
be saved in a Heaven of eternal
bliss while the great mass of man:
‘kind, without reference to anything
that they have ever done or ever
will do, must spend their eternity
in endless torment. In another way
of putting it, they claim that the
destiny of each individual is fixed
without the individual's: knowledge
or consent, Another class of preach-
ers hold and teach that God offers
freely to every man the opportuni-
ty for salvation in Heaven, and that
any one who misses that home of
endless bliss does so by his own
fuult. Another and more modern
school of Clergymen, teach ‘hot
man is a creature of evolutiv,
springing from protoplasm and de-
veloping stage by stage from ba-
boon to. monkey and monkey to
man, and continuing to progress an-
til sometime in the endless ages to
come he will reach a stage of per-
fection.
‘There was a time when most of
the Sects claimed to believe in and
teach the Bible as God's word of
truth, but the more modern schools
style themselves, (Higher Critics),
“Savants.” ‘They deny the inspira-
tion of the Scriptures, and hold that
they are wiser than the men of old
who wrote the Bible.
The time was when these various
schools of ‘Theology were at war
‘with each other, some going to the
extieme of burning each other at
tLe stake because of different views.
in modern times however, they ob:
serving that their inconsistencies
were so glaring, have sought a com-
mon union basis, each being will:
‘ing to give up his pet theory and
'subseribe to no doctrine at all ex.
‘cept an agreement to work together
in the formation and maintainance
of an Keclesiastical Trust. To ac
complish their purpose they haye
united with the financial and po
litical powers of the world, Many
thinking people have long been ob
serving the inconsistencies of the
theories advanced by the majority
of preachers, and necessarily hav
come to the conclusion that som
of them if not all of them ar
teaching error, The result has beet
that many honest minded person:
have been driven away from the
churches, from the study of the
Bible and from the Lord, The preach
ers realizing this fact have endeav
lored and are endeavoring to rally
their forces and organize a genera
system whereby they can all stanc
logether, Mr, William T. Ellis, writ
er of “The Religeous Rambler,” ons
of America’s most reliable authori
ties upon current religeous events
referring to the present conditior
of Ecclesiasticism says: “I find al
men profoundly concerned _ ovet
present conditions, Nothing is to
‘venerable or saered to escape th
lene of She. swan . Te seam
Peta iota eet te reeset ant ees plone
to the war scrap-heap.” Here is a
statement that after many centuries
churchanity stands admittedly be-
fore the world a complete failure.
The people of the world know that
the preachers are teaching errors
and naturally they ask the question,
“Why do they do it?”
The present condition of things,
fore-told, by the Lord's servants,
| Hoty men of Old as they were mov-
ed upon by the Holy Spirit or in-
visible power of Jehovah, (2nd
Peter 1:21), The Divine mind fore-
knew all things that would trans-
pire and caused a record of certain
prominent events to be made in ad-
vance, Prophecy, is therefore his-
tory written in advance of the hap-
pening of events, Only the Divine
mind could have fore-known and
fore-told such events. In this day
and ‘ime it is not at all uncommon
for preachers to be asked by. some
of their lay-members and explana-
tion of some phases of the -Serip-
ture, A preacher always assumes
be a learned man and invariably
he will answer his interrogator that
he Bible cannot be understood by
the tavimen even though it was ex-
plained to him, In fact we hear
very little explanation of the Bible
‘ny more. ‘The most of the preach-
“shave beeome indifferent to the
hings of the Lord, and are
jeep us to the importance of events
nv transsiting, ‘Through the pro-
els the Lord fore-told. this con-
| . tug: “For the Lord hath
ured out upon you the spirit of
cop steep and hath closed your
es; the preachers, rulers, the
ers hath he covered. And a vis-
1 (Understanding of his plan) of
1 is become unto you as the words
fa book that is sealed, which men
liver to one that is learned, say-
jag, read (explain) this, F | pray
thee; and he sayth, I cannot for it
iy sealed.” (Isa, 29: 10-11), The
\postles of Old speak of themselves
oy servants of God, The modern
Clergymen take thé name of “D.
i" and call themselves the watch-
-uien of their respective flocks,
claiming to be God’s watehinen, Of
this chiss the Prophet of the Lord
wrote: “His watchmen are blind,
they are all dum dogs (D. D.s).
‘hey cannot bark, sleeping, lying
down, loving to. ‘slumber, ‘(loving
ease and comfort). Yea they are
| greedy Dogs which can*never have
cnough and they are Shepherds that
cannot understand (Nor teach the
truth). ‘They all look to their own
way, every one for his gain (Gol-
| lection and honors) from his quar-
“ter (Seet or system)." "Ish, 36: 10
ie
| Before an architect attempts to
|construct a building he first pro-
vies himself with a well defined
}plan and he works accordingly. The
| builder could not properly construct
[it without such a plan, “Tt is most
[reasonable to conclude that the
Great Jehovah God had a well de-
[ined plan before he began to deal
jovith the human race. ‘The serip-
(ure proves that he did have such
Ja plan, “Known unto God were
jail his works from the beginning of
the world.” (Act. 15: 19). This
plan, of course, has been kept secret
from both men and Ange’s, and
has been unfolded gradually and
‘n Jehovah's due time. The “mere
faet that he has a time and that he
toes unfold it in a timely and or-
derly way leads to the inevitable
onelusion that it is his purpose to
vermit those to understand it who
diligently seek to understand it.
He did not promise to reveal this
unto the heady nor to those who
re wise in their own wisdom, On
the contrary, we read: “The meek
will he guide in Judgment; The
neck will he teach his ways.” God
esisteth the proud and showeth
his favor to the humble minded.”
| (Ist Peter 5: 6). It would not be
expected, therefore, that Jehovah
{would reveal his plans unto those
who are wise in their own conceit,
Jn the contrary, his prophets wrote:
("The secrets of the Lord is with
them that reverence him.” (Psalms
%: 14). To reverence God means
to recognize that he is the Great
First ecause, without beginning,
without end, whose wisdom is with-
| out limitation, whose power is in-
“finite, whose justice ‘s eternal and
"whose love is boundless, The man
‘| who attempts to please any earth-
‘ly thing above hns obligation to Je-
‘}hovah cannot be said to reverence
'|God within the meaning of the
Scriptures. The preachér that
[places his system above the loyal
"and faithful service of God cannot
‘lhe sald to reverence Jehovah. The

and made white and tried; but the
wicked shall do wickedly and none
of the wicked shall understand but
the wise shall understand.” (Dan-
iel 12: 8-19). Bible Chronology
shows that “The time of the end,”
is a period of years during which
period those who reverence Jebov-
ah will be perimitted to understand
ais secrets or plan and that these
are they who are termed “wise,”
not according to earthly wisdom, but
wise according to God's manner.
The modern Clergyman do not pre-
tend to study and teach the Bible,
but they study theology—man-made
theories. ‘They call in question the
very authenticity of the Holy
Scriptures and depend upon the
wisdom of the world. Concerning
such class it is written: “I will de-
stroy the wisdom of the wise, and
will bring to nothing the under-
standing of the prudent, Where is
the wise? Hath not God made fool-
ish the wisdom of the world?” 1st
Cor. 1: 19-20), Jehovah revealed to
Daniel and caused him to record
certain things as a key-note in or-
der that the Godly wise might un-
derstand, saying: “But thou, O Dan-
icl, shut up the words, and’ seal the
book, even to the time of the end;
many shall run to and fro, and
knowledge shall be increased.”

every where—yes, everywhere.
It has blazed its way with sinis.
