SOUTH PASADENA CHURCHES

The churches of South Pasadena are
vigorous and aggressive. The past year
has been one Of great growth and pros
perity. These churches represent five
of the larger rdenominations-Meth
Baptist Christian, Protestant Episco-
pal and Presbyterian. The Metho list
church has been ministered to during
the past two years by Rev. Wesley X.
Beans, d. D., now of Corona. A new
and beautiful building occupied by this
congregation stands on the corner of
Ell Centre street and Fairview avenue.
The present pastor is the Rev. John
oliver, who during the past five years
has been the successful pastor of the
Santa Paula Methodist church, and the
ready response of the people to his
ministry promises great things for the
future. This church gave $1,000 for mis-
sions last year, besides contributing
largely for other benevolent and church
work.
The Baptist congregation worsh'ps at
present in temporary quarters. A fine
church building is in process of erec-
tion on the corner of Ell Centre and
Mound avenue. The Sunday s-hool
room, which will cost $4,000. will be
completed and occupied by April. The
entire structure, which will be built o.
concrete blocks, when finished will cost
$30000 The Rev. ]. Harvey Deere IS
the pastor of this devoted people, and
during the first year of his p storate,
which is just completed, has received
one hundred new members into the
church.
The Christian church people are at
present without a church building, but
have a fine church property and are
expecting soon to build a church COM
mensurate with their rapid and strong
growth The pastor Rev. L. J. McCon-
nell, has recently returned from the
great Centennial convention of the
Christian church In Pittsburg, whittier
he was sent by the generosity of his
devoted congregation. The Bible
school has been multiplied by five in
the past two years, and the membership
of the church has been trebled.
The ST. James Protestant Episcopal
church occupies a fine property on the
corner of Fremont avenue and Mont
Grey road. The church building is of

PARENTAL SEVERITY

The children of two centuries ago
fell on stern timse, If one NAV believe
that the spirit Of family life was ac-
curately expressed by an excellent
mother of that day when she said,
without humorous intent, that her
children 'loved her as sinners dread
death" There is little doubt that
parental control at that date was as
rigorous as this anecdote indicates. 1t
is said that when little Andrew Eliot.
afterward lieutenant governor of New
York, objected to boiled mutton, his
father, Sir Gilbert Eliot, frowned.
Let Mr.. Andrew have boiled NUT
ton for breakfast" commanded the
stern parent, "cold mutton for dinner
and cold mutton for supper till he has
learned to like it."-Youth's Companion.

Is THE GOLDEN
RULE YOUR GuIDE7

To The Forum: DID you ever read
about or hear anyone tell about slav
cry days in the United States? How
they had an overseer or niger driver
who carried whip all the time and
followed the slaves around at their
work. He would lash them with the
whip to make them work faster. or
to make them fear him and show his
authority.
The slave owners would buy old
slaves If they could get them real
cheap, make them work until thev
dropped dead. or whip them to death
IL they could not do as much work
as they wanted them to do. Sometimes
they would steal slaves and sell them.
but they always stole able bodied or
young ones that would bring a good
price. Sometimes the owners did not
know how brutal these drivers were
and did not try to find out. Just so
they got the work out OF the slaves
that was all they cared for.
Now, does not this make Won think
OF the treatment of horses in Fargo.
Horses should be treated like a faith
full servant. They should not be made
to work both day and night; nor driy-
en- when they are so lame that every
step is agony. How would Won driv-
ers like to be whipped and made Ia
run with sack of wheat on your
back and nall in your shoe, sticking
In your foot every time you stepped

That is the way you make horses 70

have been among animals all my
life and not one ever injured me in
the least. They like me because the7

not say the same of human beings
some of whom do not deserve the
name Of human.
There is time coming when these
scoundrels win cry for mercy and CRY
in vain.
