Bishop Hendrix read a part of the elev-
enth chapter of Hebrews, beginning at

yesterday morning Bishop Hendrix spoke
on 1.-The Vision of Jacob Jacob must
be judged by his maturity of character"
declared the bishop.
Jacob had great faith, and as pa
trarch Jacob becomes prominent In
his manhood strength his real character
looms up
Jacob, with all his faults did put his
mind spiritual things Jacob craved
what Esau threw in the gutter-spirtual
things. Jacobs mother was heather
woman and he came from among the
heather. The influence OF Jacobs mother
! was by no means helpful and she would
have preferred Jacob having the birth
right rather than Esau.
we can say this for jacob He did
esteem spiritual things. 1t was like Ma
poleon, who got control of France at the
point of the sword from the gutter, and
God found Jacob who had a longing for
spiritual things.
God can find a man anywhere, wheth-
err in sorrow, happiness, prosperity or
the like 1t is in his manhood strength
that we find Jacob. After Jacobs trickery
God revealed Himself to this penitent
man, after which He gave him the name
which has gone down In history The
man who puts the right estimate upon
the family is the patriarch. The duty of
parenthood is reproducing In the child
spiritual things.
where are more beautiful characters
than Benjamin and Joseph? He was
robbed of his children, while Esau was
robbed of his birthright Hold sacred the
genealogical tables which tell of the an
eestors. God has blessed Jacobs vision
of the sacred duty for the family.
Friday the Bishop will speak on the

in Denver Wednesday and Roy E. How
ser of Holyoke was designated as the
candidate for senator on the primary

didate but he failed to secure enough

OF Us were generous enough to consent
that their support should be given to
the candidate from anothr county Sc.
curing the majority of the delegates
from the counties attached to Denver
in this district. Mr.. Howser secured
the suppoat of the delegates from all of
the other counties excepting Arapahoe

Some of the political workers seem
to have misinterpreted the primary law
in the matter of electing precinct COM
mitteemen. Precinct committeeman
are not elected by the precinct caucus
but are elected at the county primary
and in the same manner that party can
didates are selected. The action of the
precinct primary in designating candi-
dates for committeeman are not binding
on the voters of the precinct if they see
fit to place other candidates IN nomina-
ton.
