TURN IN FALSE ALARM
Someone Called Out Fire Depart
ment Tuesday Evening When
There Was no Fire.

Someone who apparently had an
unbalanced mind turned in fire
alarm from the box at the corner Of
Sixth and c streets Tuesday evening
about 1920. The boys turned out
and hauled the heavy wagon down
there from the city hall by hand,
only to find that there was no fire.
The police have a pretty good idea
as to has been turning in false
alarms, and say that if it is repeated
the suspected parties will be exam
ined as to their sanity.
The city ordinances provide a
heavy fine or Imprisonment for any
one turning in false alarm or 9TH
erwise tampering with the system.
The city is put to a cost of close to
$40 for every time the department is
called out and there is a strong dis
position to make an example of any
one caught giving a false alarm.

ON LIGHTING
Professor Pagan Had a Good Crowd
Tuesday Night and Gave Very
Instructive Talk.

The lecture on electricity given by
Professor Pagan, an electrical illum-
mating engineer, at Chautauqua
Tabernacle Tuesday evening, was at
tended by a good sized crowd despite
the unpleasant night Mr.. Fagan is
well posted upon his subpect and
gave some very interesting examples
of good and bad lighting, especially
in the way of show windows He
showed clearly that with the lights
rightly placed there was not only
much better lighting with less cur
rent, but it was much easier on the
eyes of the onlooker and much more
pleasing in effect. Mr. Pagan also
went into detail as to the manufac-
ture of the different styles of incan-
descent lamps. He congratulated
southern Oregon on its cheap cleo
trical supply and closed by stating
that he would be in the city Wednes-
day and would gladly give his advice
free of charge to anyone wishing it.
Mr.. Fagan's local expenses were paid
by the Ashland Electric Power G.
Light Company, and he is kept out on
the road by the General Electric
Company, thus giving the paradox
cal example of a firm sending a man
out to show how the people can get
more by using less of their product.
The uses of electricity are yet in
their infancy, according to the belief
of many of the best posted savants,
and lectures along these lines are
both interesting and profitable.

Senator Vardaman, so the story
goes, once rented a plot of several
acres to one of his black neighbors.
The land was to be planted in corn,
and the senator, the ex-governor, was
to receive one-fourth. The corn was
duly harvested, but the senator did
not receive his fourth. Meeting the
negro one day, he said:
Look here, Sam, have you har-
vested your corn?"
"Yes, sab, boss, long go"

Hopes Extent.

The comfort and extent of the Chris
tian's hope reaches to the resurrection
hour For those who are raised in Christ;
raised in power and glory, there would
seem to be no farther ministry for hope.
The Apostle Paul in writing to the Thes-
salonians tells of the resurrection of be-
levers and states that what he says is
by the word of the Lord: II would not
have you be ignorant, brethren, concern
ing them which are asleep, that ye SOr-
row not, even as others which have no
hope. For If We believe that Jesus die
and rose again even SO them also which
sleep in Jesus will God bring with Him.
For this We say unto you by the word of
tie Lord, that we which are alive and re-
main unto the coming of the Lord shall
not prevent them which are asleep.
And the dead in Christ shall rise first
This Is the resurrection to life i'm
mortal and glorious.
In speaking of the extent OF hope
a heart that was never broken, but of a
heart that has been broken and healed
again. A pure bright star fixed high in
heaven, it reaches with its rays the up.
lifted eye Of the weary pilgrim: but stars
shine not in the day, the darkness brings
them out. So grief summons hope to the
aid of the sufferer When the ransomed
rise from the sleep of the grave and open
their eyes on the dawning Of an everlast-
ing day this gentle star, which had often
soothed them in the night of their pill
grimage, will nowhere be found in al
the upper armament; for in the presence
of the Son of Righteousness, hope, nc
longer needed, no more appears.

The Blessed Hope.

Paul in his letter to Titus says: For
the grace of God that bringeth salvation
hath appeared to all men. teaching us
that denying ungodliness and worldly
lusts, we should live soberly. righteously
and godly in this present world, looking
for that blessed hope and the glorious ap-
pearing Of the great God. and our Savior.
Jesus Christ. who gave Himself for us.
that He might redeem us from all in
EQUITY and purify unto Himself peculiar
people. Jealous of good works"
1t is not the hope for riches, social dis
tinction or worldly renown that counts for
much in LIES brief span, but 1t Is the
blessed hone for treasures that "moth
doth not corrupt. nor thieves break through
and steal'. for the fellowship and COM
munion of saints made perfect. and for
the heavenly honors of being kings and
priests unto God forever, that animateS a
life worth living at all.
This is the hope that cheers even in the
dark hours OF bitter trial and tribulation.
The hope of heaven is the stay and sup
port OF the weary and heavy laden chill
dren OF earth. 1t puts strength into the
languid and perseverance into the feet of
exhaustion. Unhappy indeed is the lot
OF those whose forlorn condition of i'm
pen,teuee and sin puts them outside the
influence of this greatest of earths COM
forts-this hope which survives the flight
Of riches. and the wreck of reputation, and
the break of health. and even the loss of

truths, which linger in the diviner side

it was a wonderful message, and, coming
from Him. how doubly wonderful it must
have seemed.

synagogue, that all might see and hear
Gods Messenger and His divine message.
II. THE SAME MESSAGE IN THE
HANDS OF YOUTH TODAY.
AS we have watched the unfolding OF
the Masters life. and are now come to
study the plans and purposes, the duties
and dangers of His perfected manhood,
the thought must come to us that the
same message in our hands-the hands of
consecrated youth-if backed by the same
ZEAL and glorified by the example of our
King, will still lead men and women,
boys and girls. to holy living and to pur-
poseful endeavor.

| ing of the matchless life of Him who
was both God and man. and whose glory
lies in the fact of His conquest of mans
enemy through the channel of Gods
grace.
1t is wondrous life that expands be-
fore our reading of these topics. this
life of the Master. We saw the waiting
shepherds; we heard the angels song: We
listed as the boy Christ wove the magic
of his personality about the listening
scribes and Pharisees. Then, after the
waiting years were past, we saw Him
come to Johns baptism and assume His
life task: saw Him pass out, driven by
the spirit into the wilderness, there to
meet and overcome the adversary of
mans soul; passing the portal to the
halls of victory by yanquishing the three
temptations to which humanity is heir
to the flesh. to pride and to expediency,
or the easy way to greatness.
We now come to the period Of His pop
ularity-to the time of His first prea ching
tour. How wonderful it all seems. as we
read the Scripture narrative and see re-
demption's work begun! 1t is not strange
that He should be popular, this fresh
and nobly sweet young prophet from
Nazareth. 1t would be strange If it We're
not so, and naturally we turn back into
the Old Testament for a glimpse of the
young prophets of other and earlier days
Two Scriptures are given U.S. The first
tells of the Masters first preaching tour
and of the effect of His work upon those
who saw and heard Him, while the sec
ond carries us back to the time of the
prophet Amos, and we see that fearless
young seer proclaiming against the sins
Of Jeroboam, while the priest of Bethel
beseeches him to desist and go away.
Two thoughts come to us as we stand
with the multitude and listen, first to the
Young prophet from TekOa, Amos, and
then to the young prophet from Nazareth,
Jesus.
