A Treat for “Watchman” Readers

By Editor

Prof. J. W. Field, of the history department of South Lancaster Academy, has recently returned from Europe, where he has been doing research work for the past two years. He was in Germany at the outbreak of the war, later going to Switzerland, where he spent several months at the university at Gland.
We have been fortunate in securing an article from Professor Field for the August Watchman, entitled “All Eyes Turn Toward Constantinople,” in which we believe our readers will be deeply interested. He relates in a very interesting manner the European viewpoint of the relation of Constantinople to the war, and also gives a brief history of events connected with the struggle the Turkish power has been making for years to hold her place in Europe.
Among a number of souvenirs Professor Field has brought with him to the States, is a very striking picture with the inscription “Souvenir of the Mobilization of the Swiss Army.” This picture has attracted much attention in Europe, where it had had an immense sale. Constantinople is represented as the point around which cluster the vital issues of the war. This picture appears as the frontispiece in the August Watchman, and a full description is given of it in Professor Field’s article in this issue.
Mars:—Shall I paint the rest of it?
Mars:—Shall I paint the rest of it?
While this will be of special interest to our readers, still we are pleased to announce some interesting articles from our regular contributors. Elder Haynes has a most instructive article entitled “World Federation, World Court, World Peace, and World Religion.” Dr. Magan’s article this month is “Papal Prophecies of the War.” Four other articles of special interest are as follows:—
“The Far East,” by I. H. Evans.
“A Providential Agency in Africa,” by W. A. Spicer.
“Will the Pope Leave Rome?”
“Turkey Desires Peace.”
These are only a taste of the good things in the August Watchman. These good articles, with the striking cover design in three colors, and selected illustrations, make the August number by far the best issue we have ever published.
