The winter season ia approaching nnd nt this time of year there seems to bo a tendency to nllow rubbish to accumulate in back alleys and yards and even in some instances, in front yards. PandonJs getting to be acity of largo cough proportions that it should bo the pridco f everyone to keep their places looking presentable at all time. Much rubbish is allowed to acumulate in many plnccs that could just us well be burned up and gotten out of the way. It is possible to burn practically all garbage and in fact, by taking a little precaution, there is on reson whatever why we cannot have a city beautiful to be hold the year around. Grass grows in Unndon every month in the year and we never have bleak, barren lawns, fozen up by the cold weather in the winter. In the face of this fact we should take ad vantage of our opportunities to al ways havo beautiful lawns and plenty of flowers and other vegetation.. It does not cost much and is a big ad vertisement for the enterprise and thirft of the people. THE OPEN FORUM . 0 . ArmngeddonAgain; Editor Bandon Recorder The Aug. 28th and Sept. 1, issues of The Recor der contained certain articles! by T. G. Bunch nnd A. Hnberly, respective ly on the present European war and its probable bearing on the end of all things temporal. I wan absent from home when the articles appeared but on reading them find aomet hings said wheih I dare not let pass unnoticed. In his reply to Mr. Bunch Mr. Ilabcr ly made use of such (lings a3 "mis interpret," "misplaced zeal" "ap peals to fear of men," " biased inter pretation," "even a limited knowledge of history," "detached verses of scrip ture," etc. I esteem Mr. llaberly as a friend and Christian brother, but feel it my duty to take thiH up in tho interest of tho cause of truth and be cause of his utter repudiation of tho fact of tho Christian minister being able by comparing history and proph ecy to so Interpret the "signs of the times" no to KNOW His coming is near. I once believed as he doe3 but dispitc his declaration that Advent- ists intehrprct "detached" verses of scripture to suit their doctrine, was forced to change .my doctrine to suit the inevitable interpretation and I know of hundreds of people who did tho same. To assume that prophecy cannot be understood is to impugn God's wisdom in giving it. The God who once "hid certain things from the wise nnd prudent nnd revealed them unto babies," is unchangeable. Our Lord wept over Jerusalem be cause they "knew not the time of their visitation." Tho business of prophets of old was, among other .hings to foretell future events; the luty of preachers of the gospel is to nterprct those prediclions-in tho light f passing events. He quotes that .hrcadworn passage in Matt. 21:30 'But of that day ami hour knoweth 10 one." (A. R. V.) But Brother llaberly, why not con ic nyourself to day and Jiour nnd not .o proximity? And why did you "de .ach" that passage from its proper jetting? Was it to suit your own doc .ricn? Haven't you noticed in the context three verses nbove, "When ye ice all those things, know that he is ligh, even at the doors." Is not one 'know" from our blessed Lord as lutboritativc and forceful ns another? n now take off your biased denom national' glasses and re-read Mr. clunch's article and tell us why your jnboundod "misplaced zeal" allowed ou to misquote him in your very irst statement. You say he was mak ng an effort to prove this European .var to bo the Armageddon of scrip .urc; whereas ho definitely says it is .lot the Armageddon battle, and that ;hey may make peace for a short time He is on safe ground not setting lates but interpreting events, studying proximity. Referring to tho power tnd coining of Jesus and what he saw in the mount, Peter says, "We have more sure word of prophecy where unto we do well that we take heed as unto a light shining- in a dark place." Dut why carry tho lamp of prophecy unless wo throw its rays on our path way of events to show us where we are walking? What would you think of a train crew who placed their head light on the rear of a swiftly moving passenger train? The Lord has nev er brought great judgement on a na tion without faithfully warning them. It may appeal to tho fears of some but will never scare a true Christian to known the Lord, whom ho loves is at bund. Paul says (I Thcss. 15:4) "But yc brcthern are not in darkness that that day (of tho Lord) should overtake you as a thief." Ono of the ablest preachers 1 have been permit ted to hear on the second coming of Christ was tho Into Dr. Brooks of St. Louis in an interdenominational pro phetic confercenso In Los Angolos, and one of the most forceful writers I have ever followed and whose regu lar contributions I have read for years was E. P. Marvin, D. D. who spent 48 years in the ministry at Lockport, N. Y. and who held revivals of great spir itual power in many states and cities from Boston to Denver. His articles on "Signs of tho Times" and the se cond coming of Christ were more vig orous than the one in question by Mr. Buch. I mention these two scholarly Christian gentlemen because they are of Mr. Haberly's own denomination and I hardly think he would say their knowledge of history or prophecy was "limited." I can furnish names of scores of able men leading denomina tions outside either tho Adventist bod ies, who teach along these' lines. The late Mr. Moody was a strong believer and preached on the Lord's soon com ing and said that subject was men tioned oftener than any other in the new testament. The Savior puts the danger on the sideo f delay saying "the evil servant will smite his fel lows and say. my Lord delays his cominir. while the good servant is giving meat in due season." Lot us contend earnestly for the faith, but do it with Christian courtesy. J.

Standard OU Company ICAIJIOWWAi Jitfll'Jon German Chemicals Needed. Editor Recorder: From Washing ton, D. C, comes the complaint that the import of German chemicals and colorings for textile articles becomes so scarce that within a short time a million textile workers of this coun try will have to bo laid off. This, how ever, is not the greatest difficulty, the need of coloring matter to print post age stamps and the making of paper money will have to be stopped until the export of such chemicals will be allowed again. M. G. POHL. A NoUy Comet. There bad been great excitement over the coming of a comet, and Ore- year-old Bobby bad been eagerly watching for It One night bis father roused him from sleep nnd took him la bis arms to see It "Wake up, Bobby, wake up!" said bis father. "Look, Bobby I Do you see the comet?" Bobby looked sleepily up Into the sky. Then came the long drawn bray of a donkey. Bobby's bend sank down on h!a father's shoulder. "Oh, Bobby," Bald his mother, "wake up nnd see tho cometl" "1 seed It" murmured Bobby nnd refused to look any more. The next morning Bobby was playing In tho garden when bo heard n sound that mndo blm raise bis bead. He listened attentively. It was the bray of a donkey. Bobby rushed Into tho house. "Mother, mother," he shouted, "there goes tbo comet again!" Hli Descent. "When ambition led me into nn acci dental seat in congress," says nenry A.

Addrcaa Tlllt RKG1STRAH, (tw-7-16 to 9-9) Coreallla, Oregon Constipation, if Neglected, Causes Serious Illness Constipation, if neglected, leads to almost innumerable complica tions affecting the general health. Many cases ot typhoid fever, appendicitis and other severe dis eases arc trace able to prolonged clogging of the bowels. Regard thc effects of constipation, C. E. Ayers, 6 Sabin St., Montpclier, Vt, says: "I was afflicted with constipation and biliousness for yearaj,ina at times necamo so- uan i wojSSb'econiruiii-onscloiis. I liavo been fqurujln thiultondltlori many time. rnyBtciana nujjpot seem to no amo 10 do jno any T,"ood. I would liccomo wciic and for days nt a tlmo could do no worK.

I hellovo I have nt last found the remedy that sulta my cane." Thousands of people arc sufferers from habitual constipation and while possibly realizing something of the danger of this condition, yet neglect Jloo long to employ proper curativeWneasures until serious ill ness often results. The advice of all physicians is, "keep your bowels clean," and it's good advice. Dr. Miles Laxative Tablets arc sold by all druggists, at 25 cents a box containing 35 doses.
