OUT CAFE PARTITIONS
Offending Houses Comply
With Orders of Chief
of Police

OAKLAND, Aug. 17.-Proprietors of
Oakland cafes where liquor is sold have
complied with the orders issued by the
chief of police that the letter and
spirit OF the box ordinance must be
obeyed.
Chief Of Police Petersen, following a
personal tour of the cafes Friday night
called the cafe and restaurant men
who had failed to strictly comply with
the provisions OF the ordinance before
him and instructed them that all the
partitions between rows of the boxes,
which served to obstruct the view of
the inner compartments, must be re-
moved at once.
AS q result, carpenters were busy
in several OF the cafes yesterday, and
an examination Of the cafes last night
showed that the box ordinance had
been complied with.
Among the cafes where alterations
have been made to comply with the
strict letter of the law are the Ave-
nue.. Saddle Rock, Kessler's, Barnum's, 8,
Optfmo and Milan and Dams cafes.
The agitation for the removal of any
obstructing partitions was started by
the probation officers and women's
clubs. who contended that girls were
being led to their ruin in these secreted
compartments. The testimony OF Helen
Sargent, the 10 year old girl now be-
fore the juvenile court. was to the
effect that she had always been served
drinks in these boxes.

THE SOCIAL CRISIS
l AND THE CHURCH

The Social Crisis and the Church
was the topic used by Rev. E. r.
Ollie. pastor of the Central Methodist
church. He said, In part:
The social crisis today means that a
new emphasis is being put upon the
relations of men to each other and
that an effort is being made to trans
form the individual and transform So
ciety by reconstructing all human rela-
tions IN accordance with the Will of
God.
Now, this thought of social service
is not a new thing n~the church. So
cial betterment has not been a mere
by-product of Christianity; 1t Is a
chief output
The first great labor movement In
history Is described in the book OF
Exodus The word, exodus, literally.
describes the means by which whole
nation made their way out of industrial
slavery to Industrial freedom
The second great labor movement In
ment and its leader was the carpenter
of Nazareth. Harnacx, the. great Ger
man scholar. says that the early Chris
tfan church was the first labor union
In the fourth chapter of Acts we learn
that when members of the church
which then. as now, was comp os ed
chiefly of working people. were un-
justly thrown out of employment, the
other members were levied on to sup
port them. just as labor unions now
tax themselves to support their COM
rades.
THE church Is responsible for the
social revolution of today because she
created It.. Says Benjamin Kidd, In
Social Evolution the revolution which
is taking place In human affairs today
Is not primarily intellectual or indus
trial. but religious and Rauschenbusch
says there are two entities in life
the human soul and the human race
and religion must save both,
Changing mans environment does
not touch his inner character Put q
man In the slums who has the spirit OF
God In him, and he will turn the slums
into a garden Of the Lord; put man
In the fairest environment who has
slum In his heart and he will change
his surroundings into a slum. What the
world needs is not more government
from without but more government
from within. To make a man good you
must begin with himself-not at the
circumference of his life, but at the
center of it. The kingdom of God is
within you IL 1t is anyWhere''

D ECOME A CHRISTIAN.
l. GODS CALL TO MAN

That the call to become Christian
is the call OF the Supreme being was
the theme demonstrated. in his sermon,
The Cali of the Highest" given by
the Rev. Charles Gordon Peterson Of
First Presbyterian church, he said:
The call to become a Christian Is the
call OF the Supreme Being to the whole
that came TO the first disciple was that
moned them to a life of allegiance and
devotion to him. Responding to that
call they entered into new world OF
experience and thought, the records OF
which form the Christian literature.
And today throughout the world mul-
titudes are hearing the call OF Christ,
following him, and enjoying the new
Christ put the highest honor on our
reason when he said that we must love
God with all our minds. To become
a Christian does not mean to stultify
Practically every college and uni
versity president in North America is
a professed Christian; -fourths of
the professors also. and every other
student. The call is to the affections.
Said Christ. the first commandment IS.
thou fshalt love God, and the second,
thou shalt love thy neighbor. While
be true. that the greatest thing in the
world is love.
And the love of the true Christian Is
what Walt Whitman calls a robust
love, not sickly sentimentality that
drivels, but healthy sentiment that
works. And the call is addressed to
the Will. The revelation of God, as
we have it In Christ. enlightens the
mind, kindles the affections. and moves
the will
Thus the call of the Highest is an
appeal to the whole man to become a
wholesome. healthy man. 1t is not a
call to take on something externally,
but to become something within. We
ind our true manhood and womanhood
as we follow the Son of Man
