WANTS TO BE DEP0RTED
Thought Willy Celestial Is Working
Government for Passage
tc China

SAN BERNARDINO, Oct. 24.-Wong
Vol, the Chinaman arrested here Fri
day charged with being Illegally IN the
United States, it has now become
known has been a resident of this city
alone for over ten years. There are
many who now believe that the Mon
golian, advancing in years and ready,
no doubt, to return to his native land
to live his remaining days amid the
scenes of his boyhood, is perfectly
willing that the government deport
him at its expense.
For years, on account of his snowy
white locks, the old Chinaman has
been known as grandfather" among
his countrymen, and it is the general
suspicion that he is now only playing
a clever scheme to be sent to his ma
tive land free. For ten years he was
not molested, and finally, when he Is
ready to give up hard labor, he con-
scented to be captured.
1t is not known who gave the gov
eminent authorities the tip of Wong s
presence, but as he was found where
he was supposed to be and with a
comfortable fortune, which his coun-
trymen say he has accumulated, it is
suspected he practically arranged for
his own capture.

FELLOWSHIP STANDS
FOR ABSOLUTE TRUST
Minister of Los Angeles Congregation
Outlines Philosophy of organiza-
ton, Which Brings Good Cheer,
Serenity and Polse
H A r n E S S

absolute Trust" was the subject Of
the address of Reynold E. Blight. the
minister of the Los Angeles Fellow
ship, yesterday morning in Blanchard
tLll. He said:
1--WE say the Fellowship stands for
absolute trust as the fixed attitude or
the mind. What does that mean? 1t
it not the easy optimism of the shall
low thinker or the bland philosophy
that disposes of the injustices and in
CAPABILITIES of life by simply denying
their existence. Absolute trust faces
life as it Is, and recognizing that the
order. purpose and progress discerni-
BILE in nature prove an inner, unifying,
all-perVading beneficence, determines
to trust that central heart of love at
all hazards. It is a realization that
this is a moral world, and that right
eousness is the law that governs all
its phenomena.
"Such a philosophy welcomes every
experience, knowing that our expert
ences come to test the moral fiber of
our souls, to destroy that which is I'M
worthy and to refine the spirit, that
the highest truest character may be
produced. 1t greets every person as
a real manifestation of Cod and seeks
no longer to use other people for its
own peculiar advantage, but seeks OPP
portunities to serve, knowing that God
is honored thereby.
"Such a philosophy brings good
cheer, serenity, poise and capacity
to rise superior to every environment
and to meet even the bitterest expert
ences of life triumphantly. The trust
ing soul can never know fear. Whe1
a man lives in constant realization of
Gods presence he has solved life's
secret"
