LIES FRAGMENTS DESCRIBED
Rev. ]. B, Clayton breaches at First
Baptist Church.
Economical Processes Of SHtur'
Dealing with Immortality.

IN his sermon preached al the First
Baptist Church last evening, Rev. James
3. Clayton said, in part: Christ had
the rare faculty Of gathering Up all OF
the fragments Of experience, learning
obedience through the things which He
suffered and using this wisdom for the
benefit Of others. The suffering that does
not leave some fragments Of wisdom and
sympathy IS wasted; no grief ought 20 be
barren and no JOY ought 10 leave Us poor
er- All the great appeals to the human
heart through the drama. the Bible, great
books. and daily life may lose their recog-
nized influence, but they leave the in
delible impress Of divinity upon charae-
ter, and every passing event and ass0cia-
ton which feeds the heart IS not 50 fully
used but that some fragments are left
which We may wisely gather for another
days inspiration and guidance. The
bread we have eaten is forgotten: but
il has changed into life and activity
Great ideals, experiences and friendships
cherished in the soul become part Of its
life Feilowships may be broken. but the
memory OF them may abide. as the soft
ened light At eventide reminds US or the
MONDAY light whose fading guided our
steps into rest.
We ought TO make the most Of life by
the conscious and persistent endeavor 10
save its every fragment Of joyful and
sorrowfui experience for another DAYS
profit. The greatest gain may leave Us
poor, the greatest loss may leave Us
rich. but the greatest values are not
thrust upon Us, but are gathered by our
selves from the experiences Of life: from
others sorrows we may gather wisdom,
and from our own We may rise into the
heights Of universal sympathy with those
who rejoice and weep. After love has
wrought in our hearts the miracle OF
multiplying JOYS by diminishing our
selfishness, and the sunset hour has
come. shall We leave no gathered memo
ries and inspirations TO guide Us. If we
walk alone amid the shadows We
are richer for loving and being loved, and.
lose whatever else We may, ne shall have
infinitely more at the end OF the feast
than al the beginning. even II beloved
hands touch Us no more, for the frag-
nents OF life. wisely and lovingly lived.
are greater in value and quantity than
the little possessed By youth in its one
basketful OF hope
Moreover, the other life Of which We
dream so often, hear Sc much, and know
so little. must necessarily be largely made
I'D % fragments Of the life We are now
living. For love IS immortal; and love is
daily working the miracle Of feeding the
hungry heart. giving il to-days supplies,
and leaving IN memory fragments Of food
for days and the ages Yet to come"

of the Noted Johns.

The final lecture in the course, Les

talk. in which he drew lessons from the
lives Of the different reformers. He spoke

Fl. WAYNE WANTS
HAMMOND WATER
Railroad Negotiating With
City for Supply for It's
Roby Yards.

The Fort Wayne Railroad company
is now negotiating with the city of
Hammond for water supply for it's
Roby yards. When its big water tank
at Roby is completed the company will
need anywhere from 100000 to 200. 900
gallons of water.
There is a significance in the rail-
roads desire to buy Hammond water
instead Of locating its water tank at
INDIAN Harbor or at the East Side in
South Chicago. BY doing this the
company would incur the higher rate
for water, which is more than double
that is charged in Hammond. BY US
ing Hammond water the railroad COM
pany secures the wster at a rate of 3
cents thousand gallons.

Quarterly Meeting of Local
M. E. Officials Approes
Rev. Switzer.
NOTHING DEFINITE IS KNOWN
Churchmen Refuse to Disclose Pref
erence in Case Pastor
Gets Promotion.

At the quarterly meeting of the Of
fetal body of the First Methodist
church last evening it was voted unani-
mously that it is the desire of the Of
fetal body that the Rev w. r Switz-
er. the pastor of the church, be re-
tanned. provided he is not raised to a
district SUPPLEMENTARY
The probabilities of promotion for the
local pastor and the resulting loss to
Hammond's Methodist church were
some of the topics for discussion last
evening. There can of course be no
official announcement as to the Rev. w.
F. Switzer becoming a district super
intendent. but his ability and fitness
are thoroughly recognized in the con-
ference, and IN view of the fact that
there is a vacancy at the GreencastIe
district it is highly probable that tle
promotion viii come to him
Successor Being Discussed.
The going away of the Rev Switzer
raises the question as to his successor.
His appointment is a matter entirely in
the hands of Bishop Goodsell, but this
does not mean that the local Method
lists, at least some composing the Of
fetal body, do not know what they
want. They do know, but they decline
to express their preference for it is
feared that this might raise an unnec-
essary storm in the congregation.

FEDERAL PRISONER
GAINS HIS RELEASE
Blaza Murzyn, Held on
Charge of Conspiracy,
Proves Innocence.

After a preliminary hearing before
United States Commissioner Surprise,
in the federal building this morning
Blaza Murzyn. who was held on the
charge of having conspired with an
other foreigner to cash a money order
that did not belong to them, was re-
leased this morning
The defendant wasrepresented by At
torney Charles Greenwald, who was
able to show that, although Murzyn
did identify the man who cashed the
money order. he thought he knew i'm
wen, in fact, he did not.
1t was clearly shown that Murzyn
was not implicated in the fraud and
that the United States government will
have to look for the other fellow.
A peculiar fact about the case was
that Frank Cralina came all of the way
from McKee's Rock. Pa, to testify in
the case. The federal government was
represented by Assistant United States
Attorney Clarence W. Nichols.
Deputy United States Marshal D. c.
Rankin took charge of the prisoner
last evening. but released him today.
