Of most or all of its members, and

other places in Oklahoma, where the
Congressional church has had a foot

The slsLE AND BUSINESS.


ht htrt RUS AJI uNciutehs
Therefore all things whatsoever ys
would that men should do TO you. dc
ye even so to them. for this is the law
and the prophets
Keep your reputation good:
A good name is rather to be chosen
than great riches. and loving favour
rather than silver and gold.
Honesty the best policy:
Better is little with righteousness
than great revenues without right
Let him that stole steal no more
but rather let MIN labour, working
with his hands the thing which is good
that he may have to give to him that
needeth.
Reward Of diligence
He becometh poor that dealeth with
a slack hand: hut the hand Of the dill.
gent maketh rich.
He that gathereth in summc- is a
wise son: but he that sleepeth in har
vest is a son that causeth shame.
blessings are upon the head of the
just but violence coveretn the mouth
OF the wicked.
Not slothful in business; fervent in
spirit serving the Lord
Remove not the ancient landmark
which thy fathers have set
seest thou man diligent in his
business? ne shall stand before kings
he shall not stand before mean men
And that We study to be quiet, and
to DO your own business, and to work
with your own hands, as we command
you;
That ye may walk honestly toward
them that are without, and that yC
may have lack Of nothing
Hard work enjoined:
Whatsoever thy hand hndeth to do
do it with thy might; for there is nc
work, nor device, nor knowledge, MOI
wisdom, in the grave, whittier thou
goest.
A much needed warning;
For what shall It profit a man, 4
he shall gain the whole world, ant
lose his own soul?
Or what shall man give in ex
change for his soul?
Wrong kind Of business man:
And one of the company said unit,
him, Master speak to my brother
that ne divide the inheritance will
me.
And he said unto them, Take heed
and beware Of coyetousness: for I
mans life consisteth not In the abund
ance of the things which he possess
eth.
And he thought within himself say
ing, What shall do, because ! hay'
no room where to bestow my fruits?
And he said, This win ! do: vii
pull down my barns. and build grea,
er, and there win bestow all NJ,
fruits and my goods
And will say 10 my soul, Soul
thou hast much goods laid up 10
many years; take thine ease, eat
drink and be merry.
But God said unto him, Thou foo
this night thy soul shall be required 0
thee. then whose shall those thing
be. which thou hast provided?
SO is he that layeth up treasure 70
himself, aud is not rich toward God.
Keep the Sabbath Day:
Remember the sabbath day, to kee
it holy
Six days shalt thou labour, and d
all thy work
But thu seventh day is the Sabbat
of the Lord thy God; in it thou shal
not do any work. thou, nor thy sor
nor thy daughter, thy manservant, no
thy maidseryant nor thy cattle, no
thy stranger that is within thy gates
For in six days the Lord made heaN
en- and earth, the sea. and all that i
them is, and rested the seventh day
wherefore the Lord blessed the Sal
bath day, and hallowed 1t.

New Fire Fighter to Be
Employed by City.
Chief Wolf Will Have Charge Of New
Sub Station-inerease the
Department.

That the maintenance of the new
sub fire tation which is under course
Of erection at Alder and Park streets
is going to be rather an expensive nee
essity. more expensive than first an
ticipated is admitted by members of
the council after the force and equip
ment needed to make the station an ef-
fective fire fighting system has been
thoroughly gone over. Instead of three
firemen being stationed at the. new
station it is now figured that i've men
will be needed ut least and possibly
six. On the other hand it is figured
that it will be impossible to cut down
the regular force at the central station
and the outlook is that the fire apprO-
priatiOn will have to be increased at
condition of things.
1t has been about decided that Chief
Wolf will have charge OF the new sta
ton and that his place will be flied by
an experienced fire fighter from Sioux
City. Ia. The new man will hold the
position of chief over the whole de-
partment. He is expected to arrive
shortly to take charge of the depart
ment and assist in its reorganization
as soon as the new station is completed
The fire and water committee is
anxiously awaiting the receipt of the
new fire engine which was supposed to
be delivered here by the first of the
month 1t will be given a thorough test
upon arrival and if found in good con-
dition the old steamer will be put out
of commission for Il few weeks to be
thoroughly gone over and repaired
The committee will endeaEor to get the
work done here but if necessary it will
be shipped to Portland or the Sound
where the work can be done.
