Evwently Mr. Al exander and othe'j' who -beiieve; with him that the European war is thejbeginning of the end, have not made a Very close study of political government and "t h e general trehd of thecurrent of world events and manrs civiliza tion. ; Judging by the past, the time is ripe for a 4 great political revolution in .Europe. :' - Beginning Vith the fall'of Rome there have bwn four distinct e pbchs in European histdryV The first, known as the Dark Ages, dates from the fall of Rome (A. D. 500) to the Eleventh Century ; the second, the age of Revival, rom the owning of the Eleventh Centure to the discovery of A- inerica ra tne tniro; tne Era of Keforraation, . from 1492 o 164S: the fourth, the Era of oliticaf ReVmution, from 1648 to.1798;' From 1798 to the present. has been omr bf forma- ion of Federal States, territor ial expansion, invention and in dustrial development. Neyer,rin he world's history Jias- there. Jbeen so much done for the prog ress and he'development of the race as withih the last 100 years. Th's is not a new idea of the ul Ailment of prophecy, but the working out of the historic evo- ution and the divine destiny of he race. ; The war in Europe today is clearly the endof royal and.mon archkl government arfd the com ing of democracy, and the feder ation of States' wider' 'a govern, ment modeled after, that of" Our American. Any' one . can see' that is bound to be the' ultimate result or thew.will be a break in the "current of. events of the world's history. ... .; .. .. Europe, the. mother of Nations; has gone tanner zenith of her glo ry . in dominating the thought, business and education . of the world: her civilization is crumb ling; other natfopg are ;wakirtg up Eastern and Western powers are preparing to take out of this world's tragedy today the ele ments needed to build a1 newer and b 'tter civilization. And. as our countryimdw almost in the center of the civililized world, may it not be that here in this land of the free and the home of the brave) is to be the stage up on which is to be enacted the, fl hal drnraaof a new and better Christian civilization? From the standpoint of Christianity we see that in the last millenium that every 500 years has witnessed a great forward movement .'.of the Church. ; in the Twelfth Century was the revival , of faith ationg the WafdensesinSbtithern France and Northern Itely; iQ thefoim teenth.Century the giving of, the Bible to .the w.orld, by Wyckliff and others; in the Sixteenth Cen tury the Reformation under Mar tin Luther; 'in the . Eighteenth Century the great revival of Wee ley and others. v Now, what is to be the great forward movement of this centu ry? Iittnot th Layman's Mis sionary Movement when the bue iness men in the church are com bining their energies and plan niitg to evangelize the world in a generation? The layman's mpve ment is the answer to the call of God in the great onward .march of man's civilization as well as our political and spiritual salva tion. Let's keep historyfltraight.

We enjoyed feasting on the beau tiful red apples and inhaling the pure, invigorating air. At Elk Park we took, a car- 4 iii riage ana wound arouna tnose beautiful mountains until we reached Boone, the home , of the Appalachian Training- School. BOone boasts of being the high est county site East of the Rocky Mountains, having an altitude of 3,333 feet. The Appalachian Training School is the highest in stitu tion of learning in the South: The plant consists of six princi pal buildings and a number of small cottages and farm houses: A landscape arphites was em ploy ed to lay off .the cattipus, ' which is 'dotted with beautiful skade trees, and covered with crass and Xrn-o manful oliPiiho in this institution we found a- bout three hundred ybuihx men aM womewyhoje influence will 1 .. . .''.-'-:,..E." oe greaiiy. ieiL in xne progressive movements of North Carolina. he faculty consists, of six, men and nine wome.
