opinion there is a point in thè race for scanty clothing at which a girl must stop, lest the body be chilled too much, and weakened. * * * An item concerning a recent gathering of the British Association for the Ad­ vancement of Science, has found front­ page space on many of our newspapers. It seems that one zoologist, G. P. Bidder, has traced our modern appreciation of dancing and jazz music right back to our jellyfish progenitors, out of which, he says, the race evolved. Didn’t the jellyfish quiver “millions of years ago”? How’s that for scholastic bunk? * * * It was no pessimistic Premillennialist who penned the following lines, but none

other than the English statesman, Lord Rothermere; and his words appeared a short time ago in the London Daily Mail :■ “Paramount with the Allies during the Great War was the desire that when peace came it should be permanent. What­ ever else victory might bring, the men and women of the Allied nations wanted it to ensure that there should be no more Al- (sace-Lorraines to keep the war-spirit smoldering. “It was the professed aim of the Peace Conference, when it gathered in Paris in 1919, to rearrange the map of Europe on a basis of self-determination. But as its work went on this principle faded from sight. The result has been that Central Europe today is piled high with the ma­ terials of a "new conflagration.

“The primary cause of this is the par­ titioning of the Hungarian nation among its neighbors by the Treaty of Trianon, imposed upon Hungary in June, 1920, whidh transferred—in compact masses contiguous with thè main body of the Hungarian people—600,000 Hungarians to Rumania (out of a total of 1,750,000, most of whom are intermingled with the Ru­ manians), 1,000,000 to Czecho-Slovakia, and 400,000 to Jugo-Slavia.” * * * We have been reading several articles of late, defending modern youth and at­ tempting to show that bur young folks are even more fit for life than those of past days. There are, however, some facts which cannot be argued down. A late report from Washington says that How fitting to the New Year season are the_ words of Mrs. Moser in the accompanying song! The omens of our Lord’s coming are everywhere prevalent. We seem to be in the very midst of THE apostasy (2 Thess. 2:3). Organised Atheism not o n l y spreads poison through the daily press, but takes to the air and broadcasts it into millions of homes. I t seems that man op­ poses and exalts himself above God, more than ever beforehand while he is ever learning, never seems able to come to the knowl­ edge of the truth. Pulpit se­ ducers wax more bold in their assaults upon the Bible, while thousands observe but the form of godliness, having not t h e power thereof. These are the tokens that Satan’s time is grow­ ing short. It is not strange that many of the Lord’s anointed grow weary o f the conflict. Here are lines of real encour­ agement from Mrs. Moser, and we have tried to give them a mu­ sical setting that is simple and usable. This is a good time for all believers to take up the chorus: “Farewell to sorrow and shame! Farewell to sin and its reign! We’ll soon be at home, Never more to roam, ■ We’re almost, almost home.”
