FRANCE IN THREAT AGAINST GERMANY Poincare Says Berlin Will Be Forced to Make Pay* ments. ■ - firs PEACE HAMS ON TREATY Premier Declares Enforcement of Versailles Pact la Neceaaary to Injure Nation's Future —Nonag. greaeion Treaty Approved.

Bar-le-Duc, France, April 26. France will, If necessary, undertake Hlune to see tnat the treaty of Versailles Is executed It the Germans default In their reparations payments. Premier Poincare intimated In a speecn before the general council of the department of the Meuse. May 31, when the Germans must either aeee;t the conditions laid down by the reparations commission or default In their payment, would be an important date for France, said the premier. It was France’s duty, ne udded, "In full Independence" to assume the duty of maintaining the Integrity of the Versailles convention. “All we have ever asked, and all we ask today. Is the execution of the treaty," said M. Poincare, "and that we must have and shall have. The peace of Europe depends upon It. Our future and our national prosperity depend upon It “It Is not by precipitate action or by decisions without reflection that we shall obtain It. It Is by persevering and methodical action. But It must be done." The premier declared he ardently hoped for the co-operation of the allies In case Germany defaulted. "But, according to the terms of the treaty," he added, “each may In case of Deed take, respectively, such measures as are deemed necessary, and we shall not suffer It that our unfortunate country succumb under the burden of reparations alongside of a Germany that does not consent to make the necessary effort to discharge her' debts. „. “We shall defend. In full Independence, the French cause, and we shall not abandon any arms the treaty gives us.” Referring to the charges of militarism and Imperialism made against France, M. Poincare said: “The Imperialism of France I* a current theme In some countries. In which we are charged with ulterior motives of conquest Ido not know of a single French public man who has ewer dreamed of territorial annexation. But who does not understand today, after the Rapallo accord (the Russo-German treaty), the Imprudence there would be In our disarming too rapidly. “That accord brings out Into the full light the sympathies which hail developed In the darkDess between the Bolshevik! and the Germans." M. Poincare referred to the discoveries of stocks of arms and munitions In Silesia, the formation of police organizations In Germany composed of former noncommissioned officers, which, he said, were so easily transformed Into a framework of military force. He Instanced these things, as well as the pan-German agitation, to justify the precautions of France. . "Things are going In Germany,” he said, “as If the pan-Germans were watching for an opportunity to foment trouble sooner or later.

“What is going 6h fit Genoa.” continued the premier, "singularly confirms gll we knew of the state of min<s of too great a portion of the empire. How long back had Germany prepared the treaty with the solvet government nnd are we sure the treaty has been entirely published? Is It or Is it not accompanied by secret clauses? Is It simply a shield for political auj military conventions?” Premier Poincare announced that If the French delegation at Genoa could not go ahead with Its work under the agreed conditions France would regretfully have to cease participation in the conference.

Isaiah doe* not set forth merely an Ideal for a world at strife, But foretells what shall actually take place In the latter days, which shall put an end to all earth’s strife. In these Scripture texts he reveals the fact that Jesus Christ shall come and establish His kingdom and remove from men's hearts the cause for strife. I. The Kingdom Established (Isa. 2:2-4). By “mountain” in the Scriptures Is meant “kingdom" (Dan. 2:35; Rev. 13:1; 17:9-11.) 1. Its position (v. 2). It shall be In a place of supremacy. It stands at the head of all kingdoms. In fact the kingdoms of this world shull then become the kingdom of Christ (Rev. 11:15). > 2. The restored nation the teacher of the Gentiles (v. 3). God called Israel thkt He might make His name known among other nations. Now after many centuries of apostasy and rebellion the chosen nation comes into Its own. God's favor will be so outstanding as to gain the® attention of the whole world and cause the people te come up to Jerusalem to hear the law •f God. 3. The divine judge (v. 4). The problems of the nations of the world shall be adjudicated by One who Is allwise, and He shall rebuke many people. Because of this rebuke they shall convert their Implements of war Into implements of husbandry and they shall learn war no more. 11. The King (Isa. 11:1-5).

1. His lineage (v. 1). He Is of royal stock, of the house of David. From the fact that the "branch” grows out of David's roots. It Is shown that Messiah shall come when the fortunes of the nation are very low. 2. His qualifications (vv. 2-3a). The Holy Spirit shall res,t upon Him in His completeness, qualifying Him for His work. “Wisdom and understanding refer mainly to the clearness of Intellectual and moral Insight; counsel and might to the qualities which givesound practical direction and vigor to follow and carry through the decisions of practical wisdom; while the knowledge and -the fear of the Lord define relation by its two parts of acquaintance with God founded on love and reverential awe which prompts to obedience.” He shall have quick understanding in the fear of the Lord and His delight shall be~to do God's will. This has fulfillment in Jesus Christ In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge (Col. 2:3). >\ - 3. The character of His reign (vv. 3b-5). (1) "Not Judge after the sight of his eyes.” His- knowledge Is perfect; Ills judgment pierces through the problems, even seeing the motive Which lies hack of the act. (2) “Not reprove, ufty the hearing of tjuj Pfir. u The- word "reprove” means “decide.” His decisions, therefore, will be on the basis of fact, not on hearsay. He cannot be deceived nor imposed upon. He knows all tilings, even from the beginning. (3) “With righteousness shall Judge the poor:” He will mete out Impartial justice to 'hem. Many times now the poor saffer because the wealthy are able to bribe the judge, but when Christ shall reign as King the poor shall get justice.* The poor shall not suffer in Justice because he Is poor-nor escape justice because he Is poor. (4) “Shall reprove with equity for the meek.” “fleprove” here doubtless means_“declde." In fact the meek shall Inherit the earth (Matt. 5:5). (5) “Shall smite the earth with the rod of his mouth." By the “earth” Is meant here the wicked inhabitants. When Messiah comes to reign there will be great wickedness In the earth (see I’salm 2:9-12j_Luke 18:8). (6). He-shall be girded With righteousness and faithfulness (v. 5). He is absorighteous and will faithfully carry out all His words. ill.

LAND OF AMAZING FERTILITY American Settler In Western Canada Tells of Splendid Crops Raised Year After Year. Harold J. Gregory, of Lowe Farm, Manitoba,writes as follows: “When I came to Canada from Lexington, 111., in the full of 1913, it was with the spirit of adventure and through cariosity. I always imagined that crossing the boundary line took me beyond thg limits of civilization into ‘No Man's Land,' and that this country abounded with bears, moose, caribou and other wild game. Imagine my disappointment when I reached my friend’s home Just In time to help him through a month of harvest—wheat, barley, flax and oats. I realized then the possibilities that this ulmost untouched territory held open to the home-seeking settler, with its rich, virgin soli, good markets, railroad systems, graded roads, etc. “In the spring of 1914 I came back with the Inteutlon- of testing out my judgment concerning the soil's graingrowing powers. This I did with complete satisfaction. I am now farming 480 acres of land at Lowe farm, and have raised crops of equal value to the purchase price of the land on which It was raised two or three different times. I have found this land to be superior In fertility to any land that I have ever seen, and I have seen land in Indiana, Illinois, Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Wisconsin, aud parts of Minnesota and North Dakota. ‘"The present low prices of machinery make this year an exceptional one In Its opportunities to the man who wants to make anew start under favorable conditions. Why raise corn for 50 cents a bushel on S3OO per acre land, when you can get good Improved wheat land for SSO per acre, and wheat selling for $1.15- at your local elevator? 1 was enabled to purchase a Gray Dort automobile from the profit of a Jjny crop produced In one year.

Poor health makes you nervous, irritable and may be despondent; it makes any one so.
