The Coming Economic System trouble with the world is that the old system is definitely dying and those who stand against change will not let the n iw system be born. The coming new, system will have a gretly improved economy of production, an economy of commodities for use. It will be based on a righteous, sober and industrious life spent in partnership with the fruitful for c s of the Creator operating through nature Its object will be a career for every individual secure from the menace of destitution and liberated to the higher accumulations which spring from a union of work and worship. ' One Destiny of the Jews The national borne of the Jews will be established in Palestine and this will be made so definite before the end of 1641 that no one can doubt it. Destiny is working there in the interest of these persecuted and driven people. Just lately a new and very plentiful flow of water has been found in the Beersht-bdistrict, which will mean new colonisation efforts. II G, Wells is wrong when be intimates that the Jews will be completely exterminated. They will be made to suffer beyond the power of words todecscribe. They will be scourged, driven, dipos se seed, 'mobbed, and thousands murdered,' but exterminated, never. And the law of retribution will wiU'visit upon the guilty nations all the violence and terror that they visit upon the Jews.

Iniquity will be swept away; dictators will go the way of the first Herod, one of the crudest and meanest dictators who ever lived, and a better and fairer world will emerge from the present mess It will be cloth d with a deeper verdure and greater beauty. It shall be garlanded with roses like unto Sharons. It wastes will abound with the best things that can be produced, watered by crystal rivers and sparkling fountains; and over its deserts shall hang a brighter Bow of promise than has ever been seen by man. This new earth shall be blessed as was Eden of old and over all its fair bosom shall appear, like jewels, thousands of beautiful and wonderful cities swarming with a redeemed and superior humanity, fit not only for men to dwell in. but also fit for the habitation of Gods. Then .indeed will it be Merry Christmas for every soul. And every day will be filled with joy and the music and song of universal and everlasting peace and plenty. Do not despair you who are bent and broken by your burdens and fears and worries. As surely as you live it is coming. If you do not live to see it you should be gloriously happy in the knowledge that your children and your children's children shall see it and know it and possess it with that knowledge brightening your vision you should go smiling and joyfully to your graves snd thank God that hope and opportunity for them shall never again perish from earth. will-fin- tt-a- t YOU AND I GOVERNMENT A told by by Bird Trego to (He Editor This country enjoys a democratic form' of government, When we speak of 'government we peak of you and me and what we do in governing our Country our State, our I County or our City.

Interest on money being abolished by state of Utah legal enactment (assuming this legally possible, in reference to the nation and national hanks and banking laws), suppose the banks are socialized, salaries of the officials and employees being paid out of the tax i h funds? I, 'Suppose that bank stocks were now sold to all citizens able to buy it? The money coming in from this would buy out and pay off present investors in banks. When a man had bought $500 worth of bank stock, he could then be issued up to as high as $5,000 credit, enough to purchase an inheritance, whether a home, a home and farm, or a stake in some valuable industry or enterprise. (Banks can issue credit up to ten times the amount of assets.) Naturally, ba.iks should be empowered to stipulate how much and when the credit should be given out, based on the individuals ability to pay back the money issued. Let us quit dodging, whining, blaming others or assuming a particular righteousness and probity in ourselves!. Let us all pull together to make life better and increase human joy! , If political parties remain for a time (due to human ignorance) all candidates of any party who stand for a true build Utah be supported!
