FIGHTINGOFFA FLYING HIE The Aeroplane Has Introduced a New and Interesting Element in the Art of War The aeroplane has introduced a new and confusing element into the art of war. for its rapid development has triad o it one of the best, means for obtaining information concerning an enemy; and not only can they be used for dropping bombs within the ene mie.l.’ lines but the big airships are even provided with rapid-fire guns. How It is proposed to meet these new forces is told in the following extract from the special war number of the Scientific American of September sth: There are two means of combating a flying machine. Many military stu dents contend that the way to de stroy an aeroplane is to put a machine rifle In another aeroplane and attempt to combat it in the air. This will probably he the method followed in a modern war at the present time. An other means is to provide field ar fJllery guns able to fire in the air and many balloon guns of this type have been tribd out by various countries. One notable cannon of this type is the Deport field gun, which is so arrang ed that it can be used as a field ar tillery gun for low targets, but may he trained for aerial targets as well. Difficulties. There are a number us difficulties connected with firing against balloons or aeroplanes, and extensive experi ments have been carried on in various countries for the purpose of solving this problem. The large ordnance manufacturing pom-erns of the Krupp and Khrhardt companies, in Germany, have designed npd manufactured guns firing 3-inch projectiles mounted on automobiles or on wheels; but so far no definite conclusions have really been reached as to the most effective manner of firing at balloons. Among the difficulties experienced Is the fact that the aeroplanes move very rapidly, making it difficult to follow them through the sights of the gun. Anothe difficulty to he encoun tered is the fact that the required angle of departure for a projectile to reach a certain range varies as the target moves above the horizon. For instance, a target on the same level with the gun at 5,000 yards range may require an angle of departure of 11 degrees; while if this target should he located 45 degrees above the hor izontal the super-elevation, which is the elevation of the gun above the line drawn from the gun to the target, would he only 4 degrees or 5 degrees. If tin* aeroplane should he the same distance, hut vertically above the gun, no elevation over the direction of the line of sight would he necessary. Estimate Distance. It is 41 Iso a difficult matter to cli mate the distance to these balloons, and the use of range-finding instru ments, due to the rapid movement of the targets, is at times almost impos sible. In some cases experiments have been carried on with a view of firing projectiles with burning tracers attached to them. These tracers, by burning in the air, will show the path of the will show how close the projectile may be to the tar get. * % That rifle or small guns can he fired from aeroplanes has been demonstrat ed While these guns would probably riot he very effective against tropps on the ground, there is small doubt but bombs dropped from balloons would he a very dangerous inconven ience for the enemy. Experiments carried on have shown that these bombs can he dropped with great ac curacy from a considerable height, and a sighting arrangement for drop ping them has been fairly w’eil per fected. The principle of such a sight ing device is to set the sight <t| r cer tain elevation, depending o*» the silted of the aeroplane atul its height, aim at the target, and release the bomb as soon ns the sight is on the proper target. 1,000 DELEGATES TO CONVENTION Atlanta, Ga. —A thousand delegates will come to Atlanta for the twenty ninth annual convention of the Brother hood of St Andrew, whose sessions will he held here front October 14 to 18. in clusive This is the largest convention of lav men. strictly speaking, which meets tn the (flitted States.

His text was, “These shall go away into ever lasting punish ment, but the righteous into life eternal.” (Mat thew 25:4C.) The Photo - Drama o f Creation depicts this subject of the destiny of human ity, and greatly assists the public to understand the Scriptural usage of the ■words Skeol and Hades, so long mis understood and misrepresented. The I*»Btor said: Closing Scenes of This Age. God has stated times and-seasons for every feature of His great Plan for the Salvation of Mankind from sin and death conditions. In the end of each of these seasons there has been a fin lshing up of its work and a clearing off of the rubbish, preparatory to the beginning of the work of the Incoming Age. Thus in the end of the Jewish Age there was a Harvest—a separa tion of the wheat class from the chaff and a complete rejection of she latter class from God's favor. With the few judged worthy In the end of that Age a new arrangement began—the Gospel Age—and now we find ourselves amidst the closing scenes of this Age— the Harvest—during which the wheat class and the tare class are being sep arated. With the wheat class, of which our I.ord Jesus Christ is Head, a new Age, the Millennium, is about to be inaugurated. At the close of the Millennial Age there will be still another Harvest, in which the sheep class will be separated from the goat class, and ushered into the glory of the ages to follow. In the past niany of God’s people have read their Bibles very carelessly. Onr minds have been sluggish to spir itual things. For instance, the Para ble of the Sheep and the Goats was at one time applied to the Church. We failed altogether to notice that it does not sny even one word respecting the Church, but is applied to the world, the natious. the heathen. For many cen turies the Jews had been accustomed to think of themselves as God’s nation, God's people: all others they styled heathen. Gentiles, the nations, the peo ple: and In the Old Testament prophe cies God has treated the subject from that standpoint In line with this usage, when Spirit ual Israel was received into Divine fa vor as the Royal Priesthood, the holy nation, the peculiar people, all the re mainder of mankind were properly enough to lie thought of as the nations, the Gentiles. Following this thought, our Lord tells us in the Parable of the Sheep and the Goats what will befall the nations alter His Kingdom shall have been set up—after tbe selection of the true Church class to be the Bride, the Ijimb's Wife The Parable Descriptive of the New Age. That this parable refers to the work of the Incoming Age is clearly indicat ed in the opening verse. There the Master distinctly says, “When the Sou of Man shall come in His glory, and •11 the holy angels wjtb Him. then shall He alt upon the Throne of His glory.” The scene of this parable evi dently is laid after the Time of Trou ble, when the nations shall have been subdued. Satan bound, and the author! ty of Christ’s Kingdom established. Before that time shall hnve cotne, the overcoming Church will hare been seated with her laird as His Bride In Ills Throne. As the Apostle writes, "Know ye not that the saints shall judge the world?"—I Corinthians 6:2. Then follows a description of the work of the Messianic Age: "Before Him shall lie gathered all nations.” All the people In the world, except God’s holy nation. His peculiar people, the Church of Christ, will be gathered before the great white Throne of Dt vine Justice. Mercy and Love. First will come the living nations; and then In their npi'oiiited lime the dead of all nations will lie called to appear before the Judgment Seat of Christ, there to eeeive a fair. Impartial trial as lnd: vlduats under the most favorable clr timelatt-es. the outcome of which wtlt lie a final sentence of worthiness O' an worthiness of life everlasting. Six thousand years ago. in Eden Adam and his entire race were on trin! for life But Adam failed, and wu senfei-cd to death His posterity, sin nine Bt »p4»n'’ed In him READ HERALD WANT ADS and none of Uia race ure worthy of ev erlasting life. All are sinners; “there is none righteous, no, not one.” But in due time God sent His Son to die for Adam’s sin, in order that “as by a man came death [of the entire human race], by a man [Jesus] also will come the resurrection of the dead [the entire race of Adam]; for as all in Adam die. even so all In Christ shall be made alive”—"every man in his own order.” -1 Corinthians 15:21. 22. The first order to be made alive in Christ is the Church, which has been called out of the world, separated, be gotten of the Holy Spirit. Thig class pass their trial, their judgment, for life or death everlasting In the present time. Hence the worthy ones, those whose characters ar& pleasing and ac cep table to God. will be quite ready to be the Bride of Messiah, joint-heirs with Him in His Kingdom and His as sociates in His work of judging the world. He has promised that all who are faithful shall sit with Him in His Throne (Revelation 3:2l)—the very Throne pictured in the parable undei consideration—the Throne before which all the nations, all people outside of the Church, will be gathered. General Description cf tha Judgment Day. The gathering of the world will b< the result of knowledge. The Time oi Trouble will lend on to great enlight enment; al! the blind eyes will tx opened, all the deaf eel’s unstopped and the knowledge of the glory of Goii will fill the whole earth as the waters cover the sea. There will he some however, who will resist this knowl edge and will decline to accept Chris: as their Mediator; this class will no enter into this judgment, but after or hundred years of resistance will be dr stroyed. Those who constitute the two elasse* mentioned in the parable, the Paste declared, are those who have accept.’ Christ’s terms and desire to be o: Judgment, or trial, for life everlast ing. This will include all that are ir their graves; they will come forth, no all at once, but gradually. Messiah' Kingdom will exercise Us power air disseminate the knowledge of God m of the principles of righteousness, with a view to encouraging, helping and u; lifting all Ihe willing and obedient All such may arise gradually out o sin and death conditions—up out o imperfection of mind arid body, u out of immoral conduct—to tbe fr. image of God, as possessed by Fatin’ Adam in the beginning. The entire Millennial Age will he r quired to bring this about. Righteous ness will reign then, as Sin reign now; that is to say. righteousness wi: be in the ascendency, in the control Then whoever sins will suffer prompt ly. Hence all mankind will avoid si:> and the world in general will be grand place: "nothing shall hurt or do stroy”; “the inhabitant shall not sn; I am sick”; the curse shall be gr:: unlly 'rolled away, and there shall b no more crying, no more sighing, in more dying: the blessing of God v,, prevail, bringing perfection. Surely i will be a happy Day for humanity and all who live throughout the thou sand years will receive great blessing Importance of Right Heart Condition The Pastor then discussed the sub Ject of punishment for sins commit*-ct in this life. He showed that It will l> equally as just for God to forgive t!r. sins of the world for Christ’s sake u it has been just for Him to forgive tin sins of the Church for Christ’s sal, If the one is just, so will,be the other: for God is no respecter of persons, am. Is equally as willing to forgive tin eins of the wofld as the sins of tlr Church, when the world repents an.i turns from sin, accepting Christ a.- their Redeemer. This does not mean, however,. that Justice will be ignored. In the case o ? the Chureh, the sins of youth often leave their scar as id sting to the end of life; and so we may reasonably as lume that certain stripes, or punish ments, will he permitted to follow tin world in just the same vmanner. It will be from these weaknesses and frailtle.- that they will be gradually raised ffj to perfection during the blessed thou aand years of Christ’s Klny'tfotn, whei Satan will be bound and unittle to do celve any one. Some may reason that If eontcrmitv to the Divine Law in an outward wav will bring blessings to ail. there stil may be an inward difference people.' some coming heartily into ex cord with the Father, and others merely assuming an appearance of har mony because this harmony will be the way to perfection. Undoubtedly thi* reasoning is correct. It is along this very line that the parable under con slderatlon teaches. Outwardly the sheep class and the goat class will have much the same appearance and de meanor, except to the Judge, the King who will read the heart and ultimate!.! will manifest to all that there has been a real heart difference between the two c* -ses. all of whom will have been di Lull for a thousand years, receiving blessings from Messiah's Kingdom. Character the Basis of Judgment. Meantime each individual on Judg ment vflll he making character. This the Great Judge will fully appreciate, and will rate the Individual either as a sheep or as a goat All the sheep clasa will thus be received at the right hand of the great Jehovah: and all the goat clasa will be rated as out of favor with Him. even though all the while they will be receiving the blessings of the Millennial Kingdom nnd outward ly rendering obedience to Its laws Not until the close of the Millennium will the decision of the Jndge be manifested. Then both sheep and goat* will show great surprise at His decision. To the sheep class the Judge will aay. "Come ye P!e**ed of My Father USE HERALD WANT ADS. SUNDA?', ’SEPTEMBER 2G [the kind met My nucuer n* pleased to grant everlasting Ufe], inherit the kingdom prepa f° r L°U from the foundation of th world. \> lien God laid the foundatiiW. the eart h and planned for its ht.T* !an habitation.

On the contrary, it A e kingdom which God gave Adam, but which he lost through disobedience 11 which Christ redeemed by the sa<tiv*3 ce °* Himself. It will be given ,7\ily those whd will have developoA tb® God like character —those who dXjV'mg the Millennium have become tbe LcTh’s sheep. To the goat class He Will say, "De*- part, ye accursed ones [doomed ones], into everlasting punishment.” Grant ed all the privileges, blessings and ex periences of a thousand years of con tact with righteousness, truth and the Spirit of God, you indeed render an outward obedience, but at heart you have not come into harmony with God. I cannot present you to the Father as blameless and irreprovable. You must be destroyed In the Second Death— “everlasting destruction.” The penal ty upon you is everlasting, because there will be no further provision made for your redemption or your res urrection from this Second Deatfe, You will be as though you had nev«» been. You have failed utterly to ap preciate the goodness of God and to copy His character-likeness. Eternal life is for those.only who have the Di vine likeness and spirit. Both classes were surprised at what the King, the Judge, declared to be the basis of His judgment. To the sheep He said, "I was hungry, and ye gav* Me meat; I was thirsty, and ye gave Me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took Me in; naked, and ye clothed Me: I was sick, and ye visited Me; I was iu prison, and ye came unto Me.” The goat class. He declared, had failed to meet these tests. Both sheep and goats claimed to have no knowledge of such experiences. Bnt the answer was, Inasmuch as ye did it unto one of the least of these, My brethren, or did it not unto them, ye did it, or did it not, unto Me. The Resurrection of the World. Then the Pastor explained who these are respecting whom there will be a test upon the sheep class and the goat class, and how it is that there will be sickness, poverty, hunger and prisons during the Messianic Kingdom. With the establishment of the Kingdom all who come into harmony with it will have the great privilege of doing some thing to help others. The world is blind and starved now, for want of spiritual food and the anointing eye salve of Truth. While tWj Millennial blessings will be showerij^upon tuosfe who accept the Lord’s terms, there will be others who will need assistance. Those who hate the Spirit of God, the spirit ft love, will be glad to carry tbe Heavenly Message of reconciliation to all humanity, glad to apply tbe eye salve to the blind, glad to unstop the ears of the deaf, glad to help the sin sick back into harmony with God, glad to help them to cover their nakedness •with Christ’s merit. Those who take pleasure in this work will thereby demonstrate that they have God's Spirit and are co-laborers with Him. All these will be the sheep. But those who are careless respecting their Vow. and merely enjoy tho Millennial blessings themselves, will be of the goat class and will thus mark them selves as goats. Correspondingly they will be out of favor with the King of kings, their J udge. The Prison-House of Death. The prison referred to in the parable is undoubtedly the great prison-house of death, Into which approximately twenty thousand millions already have gone. All these are to come forth, not all at once, but “every man in his own order,” as the Scriptures declare. Only the Chureh will be in the First Resur rection. During the Millennium the awakening from the sleep of death will, we believe, come about by Divine Tower, of course, but in answer to prayer. Each family circle, as it can prepare for another and another mem ber, will be glad to do so, nnd will make request for his return. Thus the race will cotne out of the prison-house In reverse order to that In which they entered, aud will be acquainted with their friends and relatives, who will have prepared for them aud will Iden tify them. While the blessing of the Lord will provide an abundance for all. never theless we may snfely assume that the firovlsion will be In the hands of their iV-'lowa. It will be the sheep that will be’ especially interested in those in the greAt prison-house of death, and who will Jpe praying for them and prepar ing fiV them. By so engaging their time at, <1 energy these sheep will be manifes VRS a purpose, a will, in har mony wl.’V that of the Creator. God has willed \‘hat all In the graves shall come forth C 8 the command of the Lord Jesus; and th<V e in harmony with God and Christ will V e co-laborers with God .in accomplishing the work for which Christ died. Whoever is not Interested in that work will lnckln K ,n Spirit; and this Is 1 exactly what U charged against the gdv't class. The King, hiving redA’tned the world of mankind nnd having provided for the resurrection of nil tljx redeemed, counts them ns in a certain.sense rep resenting Himself, as He strys In the parable. IDs reproof to the gdCt class Indicates that they were not reA'lf In terested In tin* things of God. Yheir Interest was merely st selfish one. bad more or I ss of the spirit of s.?lfVkti ness. which Is the spirit of Satan. The Lord's provision, as the Apostil point* out. is. "The gift of God is eter nal life through Jesus Christ our Lard,’’ but "the wages of sin is death.”—Ro mans fi:23. READ HE4ALD WANT ADS
