L. E. Trout's Companion on Col

KANSAS CITY, Jan. ia miracle

of l.. e. Trout and Charles Pepper
dine, from the fifteenth story of the
Bank of Commerce sky-scraper y%ester-
day, when a scaffold collapsed. While
Pepperdine fell to the fate natural to
such a plunge, Trout's descent was dr.
rested midway, when the vibration of
a rope at the end of the ~scaffolding
brought it, as though providentially,
within the grasp of the falling man.
After sliding mechanically down a suf-
: ficient portion of the rope to reach a
point of safety, Trout's consciousness
gave way and he dropped with but
slic' : injury the remainder of the dis
lance to the ground.

fastened at both ends, had carried it

in my lightning-like descent I had hap

THIS GIRL TYP|ST
FINDS It HARD TO
LIVE LIKE CHRIST
Conscientious Miss Currier
Loses Her Job Because She
FrOwns on Rum Traffic.

BOSTON, JAN. 15.-Miss Elizabeth
Currier, a young stenographer, MEM
Der of the Warren Avenue Baptist
Church, is finding it hard work to
live the Christ life here and at the
same time to earn a living.
She went from an employment
agency to a downtown office which re-
quired a s~tenographer. Her future
employer picked up a letter lying N
his desk and began to dictate an
answer. 1t was to a liquor dealer in
reference to an advertisement which
he intended to place with the business
man. Miss Currier stopped.
'"I cannot take that letter." she said.
Il am sorry" She left the Office and
went to her home. She today again
looked for employment,
The startled business man told his
story to almost every one who came
into his office yesterday. Today, as a
result, Miss Currier was found II
simply couldn't do it; that's all,' she
said when asked to give her reasons
for refusing to write the letter in ques-
ton. Let me make my position clear.
l am a member of the Warren Avenue
Baptist Church, a teacher in the Sum-
day school. Our pastor has been
preaching a series of sermons on the
liquor evil, and these sermons have
convinced me that IN person who,
directly or indirectly, profits by reason
of that traffic is not true to the teach
ings of Jesus.
IF, even as a stenographer, / wrote
to a liquor dealer, and, when receiv-
inc my weekly salary, accepted money
that may have been the price of a lost
soul, the profit made by some man who
waxed wealthy by sending some other
less fortunate man to a drunkard's
grave, I should be equally guilty with
that liquor seller and unfit to call my
self a Christian
do you expect to continue work as
a stenographer. n still remain true to
tn Sc ideals?" she was asked. 81 shall
be true to my God and to myself" the
young woman replied. But / am be-
ginning to think that it may be impos-
sible for me to do SO. and still remain
a stenographer."
