JOY RIDE ON A P0RP0ISE
Fisherman Explores the Ocean Bot
tom Mounted Finny
"Submartne."

A ride on the back of a big porpoise,
according to Charlie Penny of Flanders,
l.. l., is just a bit more exciting than selling
pink lemonade at a Sunday school picnic
He said so.
Penny jumped astride of the biggest por-
poise ever seen in these waters and took a
trip with him to the bottom OF the bay and
back. and a Joy ride around Peconic bay
for nearly mile, while the porpoise bucked
like broncho trying to shake off its cap
tor. It was no use. for Penny hung on as
western cowboy does to the horse he is
trying to subdue. Penny and his brothers
work for Captain George A. Vail OF River
head and Peconic as commercial pursuers
of the bluefish. OF late Captain Vail and
his men have been annoyed by a school
Of fifteen or twenty immense porpoises,
headed by a ferocious bull porpoise, which
dived into the hungry school Of bluefiSh
and filled them with such panic that they
refused to take bait.
In two powerboats, armed with shotguns,
Captain Vail and his fishermen started out
to round up the porpoises. Several were
killed, but the hide OF the bull porpoise was
so tough that the charges fired at him had
little effect. Two loads of buckshot were
fired into his nose and along his side. The
fish jumped at least six feet from the
water, turned on his side and darted away,
but soon came to the surface near the boat
to blow again.
None OF the fishermen had boat hooks,
and while the fish was badly wounded, he
still had much fight left in him. Blubber
and oil were oozing from the shot holes,
making him as slippery as a creased pig
at country fair. The men reached over
the boat, but the fish was alive enough
to struggle and slip away from them, even
when the fishermen got a slip moose over
him. Penny then produced a big bluefist
hook and tried to jab this in the thick
hide, without result.
Wait minute. boys; I'm going to have
that fellow" said Charlie Penny as tn,
other fellows were about to give up the
prize. Without waiting to remove shoes
clothes or hat, he leaped overheard, landed
astride OF the broad back of the fish
twisted his feet around its belly and his
arms around Its neck. and hung on. The
fish found new spark of life when his
enemy landed on his upper deck. He gave

Penny knew that the fish would hava Z,

Tor he was three-quarters dead before tn,
excursion started. So he held on A minut,
or two later Penny was long way from
his boats. He calmly reached around tn,
porpoise's head with one arm and jamme,
the big bluefish hook down his blowhole
The fish was then fast. He made anothe

and from the setting Of the text here, It Is
evident that by q king the author means
God. Granted as you may say, any kings
word carries power with 1t, but notice the
last clause of the text And who may
say unto him, what doest thou7"' That Is
to say, this kings word is unquestionable,
lnfallibe and final. There is only one such
king; he is Almighty God. And the word
mere referred to is the same as psalmist
had in mind when he sang: THE law of
the Lord is perfect, converting the soul
the testimony of the Lord is sure, making
wise the simple. The statutes OF the Lord
are right, rejoicing the heart the COM
mandment of the Lord is sure, enlightening
the eyes" The fear OF the Lord is clean
enduring forever. The judgments of the
Lord are true and righteous altogether
more to be desired are they than gold, yea
than much fine gold; sweeter also than
honey and the honey comb. Moreover by
them is the servant warned, and in the
keeping Of them there is great reward"
Or this word is the same that Paul graphi-
cally declared to be the Dynamite Of God
Unto Salvation" Yes, this is the same
word that Jesus referred to when he said,
THE heaven and earth pass away, my
word shall not pass away"
Because this word is Gods word and car
ries with it all power, have selected for my
theme, THE Fiat OF God, or Gods Effective
Decree" 1t is effective, in that through
this word as a means rests the power to
regenerate men, transform communities,
mould the course of nations and redeem the
world.
The word of God has power to regenerate
men. in vain Is salvation looked for from
the hills or from the multitude of noun
tains truly in the Lord God Is the saliva
ton of Israel. "All mans efforts to save
himself are vain. All have sinned and are
falling short of the glory of God" and
none can by any means redeem his brother.
Vanity of vanities have long since been
written over every path that has not Gods
holy seal stamped over it's archway. Look

Boss Of the Establishment

Come on I'M The waters finer yelled
the Boss Of the Establishment.
Thus he opened the swimming season
every year. For the familiar bromide con-
stituted a sort of grace before bathing and
the Boss wife would not have ventured
into the water without hearing 1t.
To her the formula had all the potency
of the umpire's play BALL" And now
that 1t was uttered she ran heedlessly into
the water, Just In time to meet with and
be bowled over by rude and utterly ruth
less wave.
Tho Boss wife came up spluttering and
laughing and ready for more, for 1t was
one of the young woman's peculisrihes
that though she shral in mortal terror
from q cold shower, she treated the ocean
quite as-if It were a playful puppy point
of view which was the more remarkable
because she had never learned to swim.
This year the Boss had determined to
teach her-a resolution which was also a
part Of every seasons program. So the
Boss wife was not surprised to hear him
say in his most decided accents:
Now, you've got to learn to swim this
yearl But first I'm going out to the float.
You just splash around shore till 1 come
back. And don't you dare to go in too
deepl"
1t was quite a long swim the Boss had
undertaken and his wife, after splashing
and duclkinE and shrieldng to her hearts
content got tired Of her lonely frohc with
the waves and waded ashore, where an
elderly woman artist from their hotel was
sketching from a vantage point OF shade
made by huge green cotton umbrella
Come and sit by me-" called the artist,
~ a lnI m
make a sketch of you in that red silk bath
ing cap
And, beguiled by flattery, she forgot
what she had told the Boss the night be-
fore-namely, that her elderly admirer
bored her beyond words-and sat down be-
side her.
AS she did so she looked out to sea and
saw, far off, the Boss head bobbing sleekly
up and down in the water like an unusually
progressive buoy.
The Boss wife had made a discovery
concerning the talented vestal now engag-
ing her attention which she had as yet
| failed to impart to the Boss. 1t was that
she viewed all mankind with the saccharine
sentimentauty which suggested that she
wanted to preserve them on the generous
principle OF a pound of sugar to pound OF
flesh.
The Boss learned all these things after
ward, however when there was also re-
ported to him a conversation which, as
nearly as he can remember it, ran about as
| follows:
you must be terribly worried about your
husband when he swims away out like
that" simpered the artist.
The Boss wife bristled as she always
did when It was remotely suggested thai
she might be sentimental about anything
| It is a habit that very sentimental persons
have.
why should I worry about him?' she
inquired. militantly. He can swim"
And just for that she turned away from
the water and faced the cliff which dropped
abruptly from the hotel.
Omaha daily bee., 1910-08-06

The artist resumed her sketching and the
Boss wife grew absorbed in the problems
of civil engineering and architecture in
volved In building a sand castle and a moat
She did not see the Boss as he emerged
from the water; neither was she aware
of the significant wink exchanged between
the artist and her dripping lord, as with
his finger at his lips he stole past them
and lay down behind a derellct barrel a
few yards away.
Perhaps the novel sensation of helping
a man to play a trick upon his wife
blinded the artist to the cruelty Of the
proceeding. AT any rate" she observed,
carelessly, as she went on painting, II Won
der where your husband is. / don't see
him any more"
A hundred and thirty pounds OF startled
womanhood whirled oceanward with the
rapidity OF a revolving fan. A pair OF
very wide brown eyes swept the Atlantic's
duslxy blue. But nowhere on its voracious
surface was the head of a man to be dis
cerned. Far as the eye could reach moth
ing married its mammoth monotony except
a few shabby fishing boats which had been
anchored all afternoon in an unromantic
quest for bunkers.
do you see himT' quavered the lady
artist.
Moo" faltered the Boss wife, and then
to reassure herself she added: But don't
worry about him. He's a wonderful swim
mer. He's all right. I'm not the least bit
afraid"
AS she said she was not afraid her fear
executed a roulade on the final syllable
that Terazzini might have envied.
And the Boss hearing 1t, chuckled be-
hind his barrel and was brutally glad.
But he reckoned without the suspicious
second thought OF a young person who
corrugated everything in life in the inter
rogative mood.
Suddenly, without any explanation to
the base conspirator beside her, the Boss
wife jumped to her feet and ran rapidly
toward the surf. As she did so the Boss
lost his supine serenity behind the barrel
and half rose upon his arm.
Once more a big wave gFowled an omi-
nous challenge to the strange, red capped
atom that was not afraid of it and then
opened its jaws and swallowed her
The Boss had not made such a jump
since his college days.
You little devil" he exclaimed, as he
dragged the dripping lady into shallow
water. What did you do that fort
Haven't you any brains at all?"
| That's why" his wife retorted, with
| something between a chuckle and a choke.
II just wanted to call your bluff. 1 knew
II you were playing a trick. and weren't
drowned, you'd be scared and come and
get me-and II you were drowned-why |
didn't care what happened to me-"
And then the Boss gave his wife swim
ming lesson.
But. as he admitted afterward, it waa
nothing to the lesson she had given him.

The Fiat of God.

Where the word OF a king is there is
power" or as the revised version reads,
THE kings word hath power and who
may say unto him, what doost thou?" Eccl.
SA, In Eccl 1910 we find these words:
The preacher sought to find out accept
able words; and that which was written
was upright, even words OF truth" In a
world as sin cursed as ours It is no wonder
the preacher sought to find out acceptable
words; many other preachers have thus
sought. And their hearers are led to be-
lieve sometimes that the preachers have
not always fallen back upon that which
was written. Paul said to Timothy
Preach the word; and this. too after he
had taken an invoice Of the sinful apostacy
OF the future Timothy was to preach the
word because in the last days perilous
times would come. Men were to be lovers
proud disobedient to parents, unthankful,
unholy, without natural affection, truce
breakers false accusers, incontlnent, fierce,
despisers of those who are good, traitors,
heady, high minded, lovers of pleasure
more than lovers Of God; having a form OF
Goodness. but denying the power thereof.
These were not to endure sound doctrine,
but after their own lusts would they heap
to themselves teachers having itching ears
and would turn away their ears from the
truth and be turned unto fables
The last days have long been here. Even
now many will not endure sound doctrine,
and not a few ministers have fallen into
the very error that Paul warned Timothy
to avoid They have adopted the policy
plan to please the itching ears of their
hearers. There is too much truth in what
Colonel Dick Maple of the st. Louis
National Rip Saw says, when he declares
In his coarse way, That many ministers
are cringing towards; afraid to condemn
evil because 1t is too much practiced by
some of their paying members. Rather
than preach the word and warn such people
of their sure doom as hypocrites the
preacher goes on tickling their ears for
fear OF losing some Of the dollars that are
coughed into his pocket for avoiding the
Word. Some preachers instead of study
ing To show themselves approved unto
God, handling Alright the word Of truth.
study to see how they can avoid the truth
and bend the scriptures to suit the hypo-
critical lives of their members. They are
held under surveillance by the fashionable
dupes Of their congregations and like a
monkey can so to the end of their string,
but no further. They can preach about the
latest novel, but must not say too much
about sin, Righteousness and judgment
They can preach repentance to an axtent
and conversion to a degree, but must not
say too much about Justice, mercy and
faith"
While the changed conditions that obtain
from generation to generation require diff
ferent methods of presenting the truth, yet
the principles of evangelism are forever
the same. The crying need of this-as we'll
as every other generation-is for the plain
gospel.
