Faces of Street Audience Gave Mtns
lister Inspiration for ''Life Line"
Surrounded by a model Of Lyle
gun. a piece OF cable. life buoys, msgA
phone, wig-wag flags, tailboarda con-
tanning instructions to sailors and two
life ropes, the Rev. e. s. Ufford, OF

the afternoon Of that Sunday l went
to the village square and spoke to
non-ohuroh goers. AS l looked upon
the faces of those about me-faces
upon which were written the story of
sin-they seemed to be like perishing
men In the pillows Of death. This
must have suggested to me the inspirs
alton for my version of the hymn. .
returned to the parsonage, sat dowX
and wrote the hymn at once.
"It has been often thought that [
at one time must have been associat-
ed with seafaring men to give 80

Costing $4,000

Automobilists, pedestrians, drivers,
every one eager to get into land
which poor roadways have sealed for
many years, will rejoice at the opening
of a level highway between Healds-
burg and the Geysers. The 19 mile
road runs through one of the most
beautiful parts of Lake county.
With much ceremony the modern
boulevard will be opened for traffic
next Sunday. 1t is wide enough for
two teams to pass at any point and an
unusual concourse of vehicles is ex-
pected to crowd the highway on the
opening day All through the summer
it is anticipated that the road will be
heavily used, and arrangements have
been made to keep it in the best of
repair.
The beautiful Alexander valley is
traversed in the first 10 miles of road
The other nine miles winds through
some of the most picturesque country
in California. The old Hogs Back
road, made famous by the dare devil
driving of Clark Foss. the stage driver
of the early COS, is crossed by the new
boulevard.
More than $4,000 was spent on the
