Escape Was Narrow.

Fire broke out in the laboratory Of
the Central high school, Grand Rapids,
Thursday while 200 pupils we're in
the midst OF the morning work. The
signal for the fire drill was given, and
the children marched out in perfect
order The building was emptied in
two and one-half minutes.
The Central high school is over
crowded and the stairways inadequate
and fears OF possible panic have long
been felt, but the fire drill today
proved the salvation of the 1920 chill
dren.
That there was no panic was proba-
bly, due to the fact that professional
photographer had been taking fash
light pictures i'm the corridor Of the
high school few minutes before the
fire broke out and the students had
been warned not to get alarmed. The
warning and the taking of the pictures
had treasured them and when the fire
drill came they thought II was for an
other picture and marched out quietly
The fire started from steam pipes
below the floor of the chemical labor
atory on the first floor. The damage
was nominal, but only the quick actor
OF the fire department prevented Z
! serious fire.
The photographer was in the schoo
for the purpose Of securing picture!
| showing the overcrowded condition
! These photos are to be used in furth
ering a campaign inaugurated by thu
board of education for a new anC
larger high school.

The exercise given today is one
with a chair-something which you

had been specially constructed for 1t!

THE STATE IN
-" ''"'- GENERAL
SUPREME COURT DECIDES IN
FAVOR OF NOVEMBER
ELECTION.
SIX OPINIONS WRITTEN
So the New Constitution May Be Well
Considered Before the Voters Decide
On Acceptance or Rejection.

The supreme court has decided that
the new constitution must be voted on
at the November election according to
the contention OF the constitutional
convention. The court was very much
divided on the question. five of the
judges holding for submission in No
vember and three standing opposed.
Six opinions were written.
Justice Carpenter, in an opinion,
says that while he agrees that the
convention had no authority to fix the
date for the submission OF the con-
sttution and that the duty belongs to
the legislature, yet he believes that
the constitution itself fixes the date
by implication in November, when all
! the electors of the state are most
! likely to go to the polls. 1t is pointed
out that, as the constitution stood
prior to 1876, a revision must be sub
mitted to a vote of the electors at a
biennial November election, and that
this language can mean nothing else
than the next biennial November cleo
ton. 1t is held that in extending the
former constitutional provision giving
the legislature authority to propose
amendments, the people did not grant
the legislature any new authority re
speeding the submission of a new con
stitution.
Six opinions were filed by the court
Judges Carpenter. Moore, Grant, Blail
and Ostrandsr holding that the consti
tuition must be submitted in Novem
Der, while Judges Hooker, Montgom
cry and McAlvay concluded that the
legislatures power to Ak a date FOL
submission is ample.
In a separate opinion OF the court 4
is held that no election need be hell
in Detroit April 6 for the submission
OF the proposed amendment to thu
present constitution.

over her. King Ahab in confusion
struggled to make answer, but he had
only spoken a few faltering words
when Jezebel broke out again:
Here thou hast been seeking for
thy enemy and the enemy Of thy peo-
pie for the past three years, and when
the gods give him into thy hands thou
lettest him get quite away again."
But IL was not the gods that gave
him into my hands" Ahab protested,
for he came boldly to meet me, say
ing his God had sent him"
His God" scornfully repeated Jez-
ebel. What god is there beside the
god Baal whom we Worship"
And he has asked that all the
prophets of Baal and the prophets OF
the groves who eat at thy table shall
meet him on Mount Carmel" Ahat
continued, without answering Jeze
bells question.

she seemed more demon than woman

w.;.t TrImmed to Match skirt.

To be quite up-to-date every skirt
must have a waist that matches, IL
not in material, then in color.
There are, however. plenty OF sep
arate waists on hand that do not
match the skirts and these may be
brought into relationship by the add
ton of bretelles OF lace, net, SILK,
braided filet, ETC.. or by hemming
them with velvet or silk in a style
matching the skirt worn.
The waist should be either white or
cream, and IL the belt is made of the
same fabric as the hens there will
be an air of completeness 20 the
toilet. This is not an expensive idea
neither does 1t call for great deal OF
skill in construction.

SERMONETTE.

"The God that answereth by
fire, let him be God."-Fire was
the element over which the god
Baal was supposed to have spe-
cial power, and when Elijah pro-
posed his test it appeared
in every way reasonable to the
people and the prophets Of Baal.
The fire should be a sign to the
people as to which was the true
God. The result Of the test we
know.
Fire was the symbol Of Gods
presence, and il was the fire
which God had kindled and
which the priests were to keep
constantly burning by which the
fire on tho altar of sacrifice was
to be kindled. Long since be-
! cause Of the apostssy Of Israel
had this fire been quenched, and
! now II the altar fire was re-
kindIed IL must be from God.
Thus was Elijah choosing
! token which would at once test
the strongest claim Of BaaI and
at the same time bring the peo-
pie together in the divinely-or-
dered form of worship, and make
possible the revelation Of Gods
presence and power.
The child of God need never
) fear the test which involves the
: true elements OF worship and
! seeks the revelation OF Gods
presence and power. But we
1 must remember that Elijah was
three years getting ready for
: this task on Mount Carmel.
Three years of waiting. Three
years % prayer. Three years
Of fellowship with God. Three
: years of simple, childlike de-
pendence upon his care and
protection. And then came the
call from God and the opportu-
nifty for service.
y II was the testimony Of Moody
: as under his leadership the fires
! of revival were kindled wherever
he went, that it was the result
= Of the long-continued prayers
: and the patient waiting Of some
: saint or group Of saints. II is
= prayer and faith which brings
: down from heaven the manifest

Of the evil.

and that of Judgment.
