, W$MT MAKES PROPHESIES PREDICTS THAT MO&T OF POPULATION WILL BE WIPED OUT , '« '* [Woodstock Daily Sentinel] "It is not necessary to wait until you die to go to heaven, neither is. ' it necessary to go outside of Mc- Henry county. Just jump into your car and take a spin over into Hartland township and there you will find "Heaven.* s It does not resemble the pictures which have .been painted for us of the pearly gates and the streets all paved with gold. But it's heaven jast the same, at least that is what Albert J. Moore,calls his little colony of about 100 acres of farm land on which is situated a very common looking farm house and the usual number of outbuildings. Maybe when the founder gets thru with his ' plank, as out-lined in a 50-page pamphlet which he has been distributing thruout this section of the country, the modest country fgfrm home will be transformed into a beautiful city, fitting to its name, but it will take time. He paints a word picture of a colony to be made out of the Hartland farm, which will accommodate approximately 250 people, working about two hours a day, handling no money whatever, but enjoying all the good things of life. It looks like a beautiful dream, which will appeal to a large number of folks who are looking for an easy, sialple lif£, and it is called heaven. *EHeaven Everywhere" is the title of the Mospectus which Mr. Moore claims isput out by The Life Institute, of which Moore is the president and founder. In this book he tells V>ow to find the solution of all the world's ills. He tells how to live well, satisfied and happy. The author shows how one can live and have everything free. "No rent to pfty. , *No food to buy. "No clothes to buyif $No doctor Jaill to ^No dentists to pay. •No nurses to pay. *No taxes--almost. *No insurance to keep up. . "No death to worry over. ' *No funeral expenses. .^No hell, like most people^ now have. > «No heaven to go to when you die. *9fo charities to keep up. » "No poor relations. -' *No school books to buy. .••"A place to live and be happy." < This is Albert J. Moore's heaven-- as he pictures it. This prospectus was issued in 1922 and here are some - of the predictions made: "The year 1928 will be known in history as the year of the world's greatest money panics. "The year 1924 will be a year of universal labor strikes, bringing horrible devastation. The year 1925 will bring reactionary revolution on a world wide .scale. "In 1926 the leaders of the world will resort to the old trick of 'when there's trouble at home, start greater trouble outside to divert attention," with the result that the real world war--the Armageddon--Will break out, the long-expected war between the yellows and the whites. With the qther serious things prophesied to take place during 1926-32, the outlook is that three-fourths, of the world's population will be wiped out. "After that we shall see the new dawn. , ; "In the new era, Which will be heaven, there will be no political lines nor alliances; no Banks nor bankers; no churches nor preachers; no greed, graft nor grind. There will be no big cities, hospitals, doctors nor prisons. The world will be a theocracy and all will be equal." . Now, if you are lucky enough to-be one of the one-quarter of the world's population that is left in 1932 perhaps you may be also lucky enough to have joined, the heavenly colony out in Hartland and not be bothered with bankers, churches, preachers and politicians. Because, according to the above predictions there will not be any such animals left. Of course to realize such a dream requires money. After inviting you to come yourself, Moore says bring your family, your friends and your MONEY. "If you have a little farm to donate, humanity can use it; if service, it is useful; if live stock or automobiles or surplus food, it is welcome. Join the happy throng, sing "Onward, Christian Soldiers" and go forward, not just sing about it. Help yourself by doing, then help everyone else by co-ordinating and then ^o-operating. It will require fifty million ($50j- 000,000) dollars to establish, universal peace--the Kingdom of God on earth. There are but eighteen months in which to raise it and about a year more in which to use It. "Small amounts are welcome and we want ten people to back this greatest work in all the world with their names and sihgle contributions of fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) each. "What can and will you do for humanity?" If you decide to go to heaven you will not need any money, because you will not have to be bothered With it. The board of trustees will take care of all that for you. At the present time there are about thirty-five residents at the colony in Hartland township, • The farm home is not large enough to accommodate all of them, so quarters have been provided in the barn and some of the other buildings. But eventually Moore's plan provides for living quarters adequate to take' care of all the peqple who come at the rate of a room for each one. At present all of the members eat in a tent back of the house, which serves as colony dining room. Visitors to the heavenly city receive a cordi al welcome and an invitation is extended to any who care to make the place a call.; Drive right in and see what heaven on earth is like. ' SUPERVISORS IRE VETERINARY (Continued from last week) Mr. Thomas' reference to the attitude of the great Chicago newspaper made a deep impression, on the members of the board, who really understood what it would mean to McHenry county's milk industry if such a powerful moulder of public opinion as the Chicago' Tribune should stamp the milk from this county as "unclean." It would mean the loss of thousands of dollars to the dairymen of this county. It was explained that there is no disposition to force the test oh any farmers, but it was pointed out that Wisconsin has started to test every herd in that state and that iv is only a question of time wnen the test will be practically, a necessity in order to market the Wlk. Mr. Thomas stated that not less than $34,000 would be McHenry* county's share of the Reimbursement money if we take up the test. He believes it will be much larger. What is the "area" plan, was asked by several .supervisors. It was explained as a word now used to indicate that certain territory or "area" is being "cleaned" up. The word has no further meaning. Supervisor H. E. Whipple made the motion that the county employ a veterinarian and appropriate $4,000 or so much "thereof as may be necessary to carry on the work. After much discussion the motion was altered to include the appointment of a committee of the board to have complete charge of the expenditure of this money Upon roll call all of the supervisors voted for the appropriation, except two--Desmond of Hartland and May of Burton. The chairman then appointed Supervisor Walters, Desmond and McConnell as a committee to employ a veterinarian and supervise his work, as provided in the motion The action of the supervisors, we believe, was wise in opening up the way for McHenry county to participate in the state and federal money which will be paid out to farmers suffering losses by reason of the testing of their herds. McHenry county is one of the greatest dairy counties in the country and it would be a calamity which could not be . measured in words if this county should be publicly singled out as one of a very few which are not willing to coltaply with the most rigid requirements of the milk buying pubilc. It is not a question whether we believe the tuberculine test is reliable or not or whether We believe that bovin^. tuberculosis can be transmitted to humans or not, but it is a condition which exists and that condition requires that our dairymen must comply with the demands of a growing sentiment in the markets where they must sell their products* The action of one great newspaper, whether just or unjust, in proclaiming the milk or a certain locality of doubtful healthfulness would be sufficient to wreck the industry in that locality and the board was wise, in our judgment, in bringing this county in line with the situation to meet the growing sentiment of the cities which are demanding milk from tested cattle. LOCALS TRAVEL TO WILMOT NEXT SUNDAY The McHenry team will travel to Wflmot, Wis., next Sunday afternoon to take on the local outfit. Wilmot has always proven a stumbling block for the McHenry team and with the showing they have made thus far this seasbn the locals realize that they will be up against a tough proposition. However, McHenry is going up to Wisconsin fully determined to give the Badger state boys a real argument and are also going to do their level best to win. It is hoped that a large following of local fans will accompany the team to the Wisconsin town. Souvenirs and toys at Vycital's. W-A.
