At last oil has reached one dollar
per barrel on long time contracts on
the Los Angeles exchange. Although
many new fields are being opened in
California there is no assurance that
the necessary supply will be forthcom
ing when the railroads begin the con-
sumption of fuel oil on AN extensive
scale. The pool at Beaumont, Texas,
is too flashy to give assurance of per-
manency. 1t is more on the order of
the oil pool at Pithole, Pennsylvania.

The Phenix Gazette Of Saturday
says: W. G. Greene, the copper king
of Arizona, today purchased an auto
mobile, for which he paid l5,0o0s. This
is the highest price ever paid for an
automobile. Mr.. Greene expects to
take this with him when he returns to

miles in twenty four hours, which is
an average of thirty seven and half
miles. 1t is the finest machine ever
made. 1t was manufactured to be pre-

declined to receive it, and it was sold
today at auction. Mr.. Greene was the

The Denver Republican says that the
Field Columb bian museum may lose its
choicest collection of Indian pottery
through seizure by the United States
government on the ground that the
collection was unlawfully obtained.
Other museums that have enriched
their collections through purchases in
New Mexico and Arizona are said to
be in fear of like seizures, while gov.
ernment agents are investigating re
cent purchases by private parties with
view to establishing prior claims.
Undoubtedly it would be a hardship
if such great educational institution
as Field Columb bian museum suffered
through government interference, and
the authorities are reluctant to pro-
ceed in such case, but something
must be done to stop the vandalism
that is going on in the archaeological
fields of the west. Unscrupulous col
lectors are destroying cliff ruins, owing
to the reckless digging for pottery and
other i'm plements of an early civiliza-
ton. In New Mexico and Arizona the
work of the relic hunters has been par
ticularly disastrous, and it is high time
that exam piles were made of some of
the offenders

was, This one thing 1 do, forgetting

press toward the mark for the prize of
the high calling of God,'' from the epistle
of Paul to the Philippians. He spoke in
part as follows:
Who does not feel ashamed in the presence of
such an example as St. Paul has set? In
comparison. even the most worthy of us to-
day sink into iasignihcance when our energies
are compared to the unfiagging zeal and con-
tnual pressing forward of Paul. He ever for
got the good deeds that he had done. He
forgot those things which were behind and
reached forward for those things which are

IdoIotry on Sunday,

There IL a way Of detecting all idolaters
watch man on Sunday if you would decide
whether lie is a worshiper Of idols. man
Sunday does what he likes and on week
days Re does what he is compelled to do. On
Sunday every man worships. If he does not
worship God he worships idols The idolater' s
day = devoted TO his eating, his drinking, his
Steering end to his play. His Sunday is no
different from that of his horse. Some of our
American men raise such d high plane that
they. like the animals in the park devote
their time to the lofty ideal of keeping them
selves in a state of perfect physical comfort.
lGOlatry means decay. If any one believes
that the civilization Of the American people
be it ever strong-can stand against the
enc rvating force of idoatry he has totally
ignored all the history of the nations of the
past This is a universe which permits the
survival of only the fittest The idolater who
does rot devote his Sundays to communion
wI.h God is not enrolling himself in the ranks
Of the fttest A lifetime of idolatry will turn
him out a demon and thus he will enter the
domain of the great hereafter.
Ny friends, let keep the second com
irdHdment. Let us place the things of the
world at their real value Let us so live that
The light of our Christian lives will shine out

begun in the Great Lake region by Episco-
Dalians in 1912.
Bishop Henry Y. Satterlee of Washing
ton spoke. on the plan to build grand

The Right Rev. G. w. Peterkin, Bishop
of West Virginia. preached special ser
mon at the morning services. His text
What is the great commandment? was
taken from the gospel of the day. In
answering the question Bishop Peterkin
said in part:
The greatest commandment is: Thou shalt
love thy God with thy whole heart. with thy
whole soul, with thy whole mind and with all
thy strength The next greatest command
ment is Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thy
self" 1 am afraid do not love God enough
but should not be discouraged Our re-
ligious love should come from within and not
from without True religion is the essence of
the attitude of the heart toward God. We
should love God because God loves us. A
Cody man loves God and Christ-like man
loves Christ. Such love comprises Christianity,
and Christianity is the highest possible con-
ception of humanity.
