Here is the “war dope” that
you have been waiting for. It
is this: This cruel war is going
to end pretty soon; England
will be the victor. She knew
she would in the beginning, and
she knows now that she will
come off conqueror in the end.
It is and has been a great war,
the greatest that the world has
ever known, and throughout
the struggle it is plainly appar-
ent that the wiser heads of
Great Britain have never for
one moment entertained the
idea of losing. 'She, as a coun-
try, has allowed France and
Russia to do the main fighting,
possibly wishing them well in
the struggle; but never at any
time has England “put her best
foot forward."- She has played
ceived. At 8 o’clock he will
talk on “The War Against Sin.”
Evangelist Brown has not yet
put in an appearance, but is
certainly expected by the 12:45
