Ui* TWO REGIMES AT WAR IN GERMANY ■'s PERSONS KILLED. OVER 100 IN JURED IN SUNDAY CLASH EBERT FORCED FROM BERLIN Members Os The Old Government Have Moved From Dresden To Suttgart ,• • London.—During the fighting in Frankfort fifteen persons were killed and a hundred wounded, says an Ex change Telegraph dispatch from Ber lin. The police were compelled to jleave the town in consequence of the mob seizing an arms depot. I A dispatch from Berlin says the .two governments of Germany are now matching their wits and forces to gain control of the republic.

IMPROVED imirOEH INTERSATIOHAL SMTSOIOOL Lesson (By REV. P. B. FITZ WATER. L). D.. Teacher of English Bible in the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.) (Copyright. i#2o. Western Newspaper Union) LESSON FOR MARCH 21 JOHN’S PICTURE OF WORSHIP IN HEAVEN. LESSON TEXT—Rev. 7:9-17. GOLDEN TEXT—Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honor, and power, and might be unto our God tor ever and ever. Amen.—Rev. 7:12. PRIMARY TOPIC - The Heavenly Home. JUNIOR TOPIC.—A Glimpse or Heaven. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC —A Vision of the Glorious Future. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —Permanent Message of the Book of Revelation. I. The Worshipers (vv. 0-14). 1. Who they are (vv. 0, 11). (1) Redeemed men (v. 0). They are main ly Gentiles —“of all nations, and kindreds,. and people, and tongues.” They are those to whom the “gospel of the kingdom” has been preached by converted Israelites (Matt. 24:14). In the first part of chapter seven we saw God sealing his chosen ones from Israel. They were sealed with the seal of God in their foreheads, which doubtless means the supernatural en dowment of the Holy Spirit on the last days (Joel 2:28-32). While tills was partially fulfilled on the day of Pentecost, its larger realization is still future (Acts 2:15-21). This out pouring is for the equipment of the Jews for their divinely ordained mis sion, namely, to preach the gospel of the kingdom to the whole world. When God sends forth the 144,000 Jews with the unction of the noly Spirit, the innumerable multitude j from all nations will receive Christ, j the slain Lamb, for their redemption. | (2) All the angels (v. 11). These j angels indorse this ascription of praise offered by these redeemed men by saying “Amen." 2. Whence came these redeemed? (vv. 1.3, 14). They came out of the great tribulation (v. 14). After the rapture of the Church (I Thess. 4:IH -18), awful days of suffering and trial shall come upon the world (II Thess. 2:7, 8). It is the time of sorrow when the anti-Christ shall hold sway; such days as were not before nor shall he after, in which if not short ened no flesh could be saved (Matt. 24:15, 21, 22; cf. Dan. 7:8; 9:26, 27). 3. What they say (vv. 10, 12). (1) Salvation to our God and the Lamb (v. 10). They ascribe their salvation to God through the sacrifice of the Lamb, Jesus Christ. (2) “Blessing.” They acknowledge that all blessings come from him. (3) “Glory.” They acknowledge liiin as the glorious one and the one to whom all glory should | be given. (4) “Wisdom.” He is in finitely wise and all wisdom comes from him. (5) “Thanksgiving,” be cause salvation was provided by him. (G) “Honor.” Their hearts went out to him in high esteem. (7) “Power and might." They recognized that all power inhered In him. 11. The Blessedness of the Worship ers (vv. 13-17). 1. They are before God’s throne (w. 9, 15). They are in heaven and near the throne of God. Jesus Christ is now preparing mansions for those who shall go to heaven (John 14:1-3). 2. Clothed with white robes (vv. 9, 14). Their white robes suggest their ; character. They have been made such In the blood of the Lamb. The only i way for a sinner to he made ready 1 for heaven Is through the blood of Christ. 3. They hear palm branches (v. 9). The significance of the palm is found In the use that 1 lie Jews made of It at the Feast of Tabernacles. It was a time of groat joy, because it repre sented the gathered harvest. 'Hie bearers of the palm branches will ex perience the blessedness of not only | being in heaven, but of enjoying re- j wards for their work on earth. 4. They serve God day and night (v. 15). Heaven is not a place of idleness, or altogether of singing God’s praises, hut a place where real, vital service is rendered to God; in- j deed, there are nobler fields of en- ■ deavor awaiting us beyond this life. Tills life Is hut a training school In which we are made ready for service In heaven. 5. God dwells among them (v. 15). j To get to heaven at all would he truly blessed, but to be there and have God to dwell among us will he wonderful. ! G. Hunger no more nor thirst (v. 1G). I Here life is one continuous round of hungering and thirsting. In heaven we shall neither hunger nor thirst, ; for Jesus Christ, the Lamb, shall feed j us. The straits and necessities of life will then he over. 7. Neither shall the sunlight or beat come upon them (v. 17). 8. God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes (v. 17). - - This Day Only. Enjoy the blessings of the day If | God sends them; and the evils hear ; patiently and sweetly; for this day : only is ours: we are dead to yester- j day, and not horn to tomorrow. — ! Jeremy Taylor.

ROAD BUILDING DRAINAGE IS BIG ESSENTIAL Chief Requirement of Good Earth Road Is Drainage—Keep Crown Properly Dragged. It can be truthfully said that drain age Is the chief essential in putting earth roads into proper condition. An old Scotchman, an expert road builder, aptly said that the three requirements of good earth -oads are drainage, more drainage, and still more drainage. The roads must not only have good surface drainage but must also have good un der drainage. Surface drainage is se cured by proper grading, adequate side ditches, and by keeping the crown of the road properly dragged. Stretches of road that do not dry out quickly must bo under-drained by tile. The drag must be used after each rain, if the best results are to be se cured. Don't go on the road while too muddy, let it dry out slightly ; it should be wet enough, however, so it will not !

When properly used, the drag brings a thin layer of earth toward the center of the road which is rolled and packed between iiip wet periods. If too much crown Is secured by dragging, the angle of the drag should he reversed. Getting the earth roads graded, ditches open, well drained, and prop erly crowned by dragging is about all that can be dm * until the people are ready to surface the road wllli gravel, broken stone or some other surfacing material. GREAT 1920 ROAD PROGRAM Necessary for Many States to Post pone Expenditure of Federal Funds for Building. David F. Houston, secretary of ngrl ■ulture. In his annual report, calls at tention to the fact that tin,* lIJIIJ pro gram for federal aid road building Is greater than any previous annual road-building accomplishment In this Country. II is so great. In fact, that It undoubtedly will be necessary for many of the states to postpone until 1020 the expenditure of the federal funds bemuse of the necessity of de veloping experienced eontrnctlng and engineering organizations from the 1 stagnant conditions brought about by the war. Under the terms of the fed j eral aid road act, the apportionment, i to a state for any one fiscal year re | mains available for expenditure until i the close of the succeeding year. It is estimated that funds already pro vided will be sullieient to finance next year n program more than four times ! greater than any that has over been ! undertaken. GOOD MARKET IS REQUISITE °rime Essential for Successful Diversi fied Farming—Bad Roads Are Drawback. Farmers sooner or Inter learn the de i sirabillty of diversified farming. I’er- I haps no cause limits farming of this i description so much as had roads, for ! the prime requisite for successful di versified farming is a good market, j i This market, may he either a nearby town or a city, or a distant market which requires railroad transporta j tlon. ADVANTAGE TO AGRICULTURE Time Saved in Hauling Over Improved J Roads Really Reduces Cost of T ransportation. One of the great advantages of irn- | proved roads to agriculture Is the time ; saved in hauling, which In reality i amounts to n reduction in transports- ! Hon costs. BIGGER TAXES ON BAD ROADS Lost Time and Labor on Poor High- i ways Will More Than Build and Maintain Good Hoad. Some folks object to n good roads tax. The American farmer pays great er taxes on bad roads than he dries on the const met lon and maintenance of good roads The time and labor lost on bad roads will more than pay the tax levy to build anil support a good road. \ i * «► r. il Take Aspirin With Water I • - '■■■ - * * •► * ► 4» « » * * If your Aspirin tablets have the 1 contains proper directions for • * ] \ name “Bayer” stamped on them, j Colds, Headache, Toothache, Ear- * ’ * * they are genuine “Bayer Tablets ache.
