TRACES JOSEPH'S CAREER
TO HOUSE OF P0TIPHAR
Pastor of Trinity Church Delivers
Second Lecture on Lessons to Be
Derived from Biblical
Narrative

Dr. j. W. Shoaff. the pastor of Trim
ity church, delivered his second lee
ture yesterday evening on the Life
and Times of Joseph" Tracing the mar
rative from the tragic occurrence at
Dothan to Joseph's promotion in the
home of Potiphar, the speaker said in
part:
what strange emotions must have
swept the heart of the boy when he
found himself a slave in the hands Of
foreign traders. And we almost wish
that these emotions had been put into
words in the sacred story But there
was no need that they should be writ
ten out in words, for they have been
written and rewritten in the tears and
sorrows of the centuries. We all know
something of the silence of grief. There
are crises in life when we cannot speak.
Stunned, overwhelmed and dismayed,
we were dumb with silence
again we learn something about the
feeling of loneliness that Joseph must
have experienced down there in Egypt.
Thousands were around him, but every
face was strange. With the loneliness
Of soul that settled upon him, what an
unspeakable inconsistencies he must have
felti There are times when most of
us experience something like this. The
birds sing and they sadden us. The
smiles of glad hearts seem to fling
shadows Of blacknesS across our own.
My young friend, you may be a
stranger in this city tonight, and you
may be having an experience something
akin to the feelings We have described.

The installation of a wireless station
on the Banning boat Hermosa, for

and r. d. Bleakney, Southern California
district manager for the United Wire

Stallation there. The next local i'm
provement by the United Wireless COM
pany will be the raising of the station
at Chutes park to five kilowatts, to
extend the Los Angeles facilities
Action against amateur wireless on
orators who persist in interfering with
commercial work may be taken in Los
Angeles similar to that recently carried
out in San Francisco. The United
Wireless company has found itself seri-
ously interfered with by Los Angeles
men and boys who have installed small
outfits and are ambitious to talk with
all stations they can reach.
I'VE do not like to take action. and
have been patient with amateurs, be-
cause we appreciate their interest in
wireless telegraphy," said Mr.. Bleaknev
yesterday, but we have been so both
cred of late that we cannot see any
other way out of the trouble A sur
prising thing to me is that one of the
worst offenders has been the proprietor
of wireless school, who should teach
the ethics Of the work. The govern
ment has demonstrated that amateurs
must respect the rights of others"

l do not know who you are or what
the peculiar limitation of yourself is.
But the God Of Joseph does. He is the
young mans unchanging friend.
''The story assures us that God was
with Joseph. So God seeks to enter all
life. If we put our trust in him in us
shall be fulfilled that word of divine
secret place of the Most High shall
abide under the shadow of the AL
mighty
Secret Is Twofod
LET us learn something about the
secret of prosperity. The secret is two
fold.
'First-God was with Joseph and he
prospered. We should put ourselves
into such an attitude of life and char
acter that. we can command the help
of Almighty God. Life without God is
a stranded life, Young man, be sure
to have partnership with God.
I'm the second place, while God is
willing to do his part, you must be
willing to do yours. So many in the
world are waiting and hoping for some
thing to turn up. Do not make that
mistake, my young friend. Determine
by the help of God to turn something
up. What would fair Southern Cali
fornia have been if the past genera
ton had waited for something to turn
up? Yonder mountain heights would
have been frowning still on a desert
and a waste. But men went to work,
and 10! the desert blossomed as the
rose. Let us learn the lesson. If we
do our part the God of Joseph will do
his.
Finally, the great lesson of the
evening is the law of mediation that
enters into all truly consecrated life.
God blessed the Egyptian house for
Josephs sake. That principle runs
through the divine economy through
the ages.
This great law-the law of media
tion-has its highest expression in the
vicarious work and mediatorial under
taking of the Son of God. For if,
through the offense of one, many be
dead, much more the grace of God and
the gift by grace, which is by one man
Christ Jesus hath abounded unto
many"

MEASURE TO ALTER NAME OF
CITY WILL MEET OPPOSITION

OCEAN PARK, Jan. 17.-With the
announcement that a bill has been in
troduced in the legislature making
provision for cities wishing to change
their names comes information that
former City Attorney Anderson will go
to Sacramento for the purpose of OPP
posing the measure.
Application has been made for some
time to induce the superior court to
change the name of this municipality
to that of Venice.
The petition asking for the change
was signed by large number of prop
erty holders of the city. Some oppo-
sition has arisen among those residing
near the Pier avenue district, but as
far as can be learned the change is
favored by majority of those resid-
ing within the city limits.

TO BRING PEACE
DANE ARRESTED ON CHARGE
OF INSANITY
ASSERTS HE is OFFICER OF IN
TERNATIONAL SOCIETY
Explains That Waitress Gave Him
Supreme" Test Wrong and He
Knew She Meant to
Poison Him

Declaring an attempt had been made
to poison him by placing a deadly drug
in his oatmeal, Amelius Larson, 692
Mimost street, a designer Of tombStones,
appeared at the police station yester-
day morning and asked for protection.
His wild talk and peculiar actions
caused the officers to place him under
arrest on a charge of insanity. He was
taken to the receiving hospital
By the arrest of Larson the detectives
believe a wholesale poisoning has been
prevented. A package of poison was
found in his room, and it is thought he
contemplated poisoning some food in
order to be revenged on a waitress at
the boarding house, who is said to have
discouraged his attempts at love MAX
ing.
Larson was at the police station
Saturday morning. He wanted a COM
plant issued against a bulldog that he
declared had git him. He was referred
to the prosecuting attorney, but evil
IDENTIFY failed to make his case strong
enough, and went back home. He was
bitten by the dog again, he asserts, and
then remarked that animals that were
so vicious should be killed.
The dog, a fine bull terrier with four
teen young puppies, is the property of
l.. B. Andrews, fireman attached to
engine company No. II. Andrews for
merly roomed at 692 Mimosa street, but
moved to Gil Hope street. He left the
dog with the boarding house people to
be cared for.
Dog Found Dead
Yesterday morning when Andrews ap-
peared at the place to get his dog and
puppies the dog was dead. Andrews
went to the central station to report
the matter to the police, and found
Larson had been arrested.
In the ward of the receiving hospital
Larson told his story. Il am an officer
Of the International Peace Negotiation
society," he declared. "Our object is to
obtain peace by the process of exter-
rnination
There are two classes of people
good characters and bad characters. To
enable the good characters to better
their conditions and produce a race of
good citizens who will be the future
peaceful rulers of the world it is neces-
sary to eXterminate the bad characters.
To do this all that is necessary is for
me to point out the bad ones and they
will be executed Immediately. With
the bad characters out of the way the
good and peaceful persons will have a
better chance

HOW TO SUCCEED IN
BUSINESS IS THEME
Declares Neither Prayer Nor Devotion
to Church Can Make Good
Transgression of Laws
of Commerce

How to Succeed in Business is the
subject on which Pastor J. E. Colon
discoursed yesterday morning at the
New Jerusalem Christian church, TAX
ing his text from Luke. xvi, 9-12: "And
/ say unto you, make to yourselves
friends of the mammon of unrighteous-
ness; that, when it shall fail, they
may receive you into eternal taber-
nacles. He that is faithful in a very
little is faithful also in much; and he
that is unrighteouSneSs in very little
is unrighteous also in much.' In part
the minister said:
There are definite laws in the bust
ness world, as well as in all other de-
partments of human experience. Sue
cess, materially considered depends
of ability to learn the nature and ex-
tent of human wants and to supply
them in the most acceptable and econ
Omical way; on circumSpection and
prudence; on ability to keep expenses
below income; to command the services
of others, and to avoid presumption or
the gambling spirit; and on courtesy,
which is to business what we'll kept
lawns and cheerful flowers are to the
eXteriors of our houses.
Piety and Business Separate
mo amount of prayer and devotion
to church interests can make good a
tranSgreSS1on of these laws, for piety
belongs to another department of our
nature, having it's own laws, relations
and productions. Piety is of the affec-
lions; business of the activity. Though
piety should sanctify business, it can
not insure its success; and though bust
ness should support piety and give it
concrete manifestation, it cannot gen.
crate It.
Success in business is to be deter
mined by the end contemplated. If that
and respects this life alone, the UNI
righteous fnammon will be used only
for worldly accumulation and not as
means for making friends of the lovers
of justice, sincerity, faithfulness and
public spirit.
Success or failure is then gauged
by millionaire standard. But if our
end respects eternal life, ali who have
failed in their business life to acquire
the true mammon of righteousness, sin
certify, fidelity, mercy and goodness
truly have failed. Giving few mil
lions to build universities, libraries or
churches cannot atone for the lack Of
these divine goods

DEDUCES LESSONS FROM
CAREER OF ROMAN SLAVE
Minister of Los Angeles Fellowship
breaches on the Life of and
Philosophy Taught by
Epictetus

"A Slave Who Was More Than
King" was the subject of an address
by Reynold E. Blight, minister of the
Los Angeles Fellowship, at Blanchard
hall yesterday morning. He said:
All the saints and heroes of the
race are not in the Christian calendar
So-called heathenism furnishes some
of the most heroic examples of endur-
ance, magnanimity and nobility of
character that history records. want
to speak to you this morning of a
crippled pagan slave, who, under the
whip of cruel master and in the most
degrading circumstances, rose to the
highest heights of manly character;
and for whom was written the mem
orable epitaph, L was Epictetus, a
slave, MANNED in body and a beggar
for poverty and dear to the immortals?
Epictetus was born in Phrygia, and
While yet baby was sold into slav-
cry. The slaves of a Roman house
hold were crowded together in i'm
mense gangs; they were liable to the
most violent and capricious punish
ments, and they might be subjected to
the most degrading and brutaliZing in
f1uences. His master, Epaphroditus,
was companion to the Infamous Nero,
and was exceedingly cruel in his treat
ment of his slaves. Although living
in these degrading conditions of pow
as philosopher spread throughout
Rome, and his pure and noble char
acter made a profound impression
upon his contemporaries. He was in
the highest sense a master of life.
With Greater Advantages
IF under these degrading conditions
Epictetus could rise to such heights
Of moral grandeur, to what heights
ought we to rise under our favoring
conditions? Not one of us but has a
thousand opportunities for develop
ment and incentive to endeavor for
every one that the Roman slave en-
joyed. The example of Epictetus re-
Dukes our complaints and our failures
and urges us to manly effort
1.-THE life of Epictetus proves that
no man can be crushed by his circum-
stances. Adverse circumstances are
the gymnastic apparatus upon which
we test and develop our moral muscle.
Only by bravely meeting the adverse
conditions, overcoming obstacles, beat
ing down temptations, shall we be-
come masters of ourselves and of fate.
According to Epictetus this mastery
may be obtained by: First, absolute
resignation to the will of God: second.
the conquest of every passion; third,
transparent sincerity, and fourth, the
realization that happiness is in ones
self, in true freedom, in the conquest
of every ignoble fear, a perfect self
government, in a power of content
ment and peace and the even flow Of
life amid poverty, exile, disease and
the very valley of the shadow of

STRICT OBSERVANCE
OF SABBATH URGED
Public Also Has Matter in Its Own
Hands by Refusing to Buy
Except on Week
Days

DIR William Mccormack, dean and
rector of st. PauPs pro-cathedraL
preached last night, taking as his text:
BLESSED is the man that keepeth my
Sabbaths from polluting them" Isaiah,
56:2. He said in part:
"A request has come to the pastors
of the city that they present the cause
of Sunday observance. 1 can very
easily imagine the reasons that
prompted such an appeal. They are
twofold.
'First-The fact that the state of
California is, I am told, the only state
in the Union without Sunday law.
"Second-Because of the great impor-
lance of the topic.
THE need of Sunday, one day IN
seven, is writ in letters of burning fire
upon the page of history
THE people of France tried the ex-
pertinent Of abolishing it at the time
Of the revolution, only to give it up.
There is published a very readable
series of addresses on the Book of Ex-
odus by DR.. Charles r. Brown of Oak
land. What appealed to me in the book
as much as anything was the fact that
the social upheaval in Egypt was pro-
test on the part of Israel against the
Sabbath rest
with so much of introduction I come
to my subject: rs Sunday Observed in
Los Angeles? Some of you will answer
Yes, and you are right in part. 9th
ers will say NO. and you are right TO
a very large extent
while the theaters are going. while
great multitudes are seeking pleasure
at public places, while stores and shops
of all sorts are open, it is impossible to
say that Sunday is observed to any
great extent.
Made Good by Law
Nov, what are you going to do about
it? Legislate? Certainly, answer. But
some one reminds me that you can't
make people good by legislation. 1 am
not so sure about that, because a law
always provides an environment, and
it follows that a good environment
tends to make people good.
But the great trouble with this ques-
ton is that it is discussed usually in
an academic way. Let me make a
practical appeal How are you going
to close the grocery stores and the
butcher shops on Sunday?
You don't need an act of congress
for that. The method is very simple
by getting the people to buy on Satur-
day enough to supply all the Sunday
wants.
Apply that method all along the
line, and the problem is solved. Then
we shall have a personal demonstration
of the truth of our text: BLESSED is
the man that keepeth my Sabbaths
from polluting Them"
