AN ENQUIRER
AFTER TRUTH
As Resolves Happiness In lncreas'
ed Information

sunday evening at the Calumet
conversational church, Rev. Luther X,
Long spoke ON the subject "A Model
enquirer" the incident of Philip and a
Eunuch, recorded in Acts S;26-4O.
AN enquirer after the truth is al
WAYS an interesting person. said Rev.
Long Here is "A man looking for the
way Of life. Who was he? He was the
treasurer of Candace, queen of the
Ethiopians in Africa. The queen of
Sheba, from that same region, many
years before had come TO King Solo
mon and asked him many questions.
Some think that what she saw and
heard at the court of Solomon not
only satisfied her mind but led her To
believe in Jehovah and that she car

fact that he lived long way from the

things they specially need To hear and
the influence meant for their good by
absenting themselves from the place
appointed for Worship and revelation.

he was reviewing and studying more
closely some of the passages used i'm
the public service. With the word in
his hand the spirit directed his atten-
lion t. the portion of scripture that
had in ii help for him. and at the
same time moved Philip who could
help him to join him i'm his journey.
g. He asked help from one who
could teach him. OF whom speaketh
the prophet this? OF himself, or of
some other" Then could Philip from
that scripture preach unto him Je-

quirers IL they felt more free To ask

ADVENT OF SUMMER. HERALDS ADVENT OF
 HIGH RUNNING BOARD
Trolley Passengers Suggest That Run ming Boards Be Not Changed at
 St. Thomas Church.

(By Our Special Correspondent
 Fairfield, June 11.-Did you ever att tempt to step upon the running board of a trolley car in front of St. Thomas ordinary effort? For a long time the Connecticut Co. has given orders to its motormen and conductors to stop their cars in front of the church to let down the right running board and to raise the left. In proceeding from Westport through Southport and up to the church passengers must alight on the left side. At the church the change is made, but why no one can guess. Indeed a more unreasonable place could not be picked out. It is effort for an athletic young man to hop upon the board at this point. while it is almost a physical impossi- bilfty for a woman or child. Yet this condition has been going on without any remedy for some time. Residents near the church are wise and do not get on the car at this point but walk to either of the next white poles. The steep roadbed at this point is the real cause but it would seem that the trolley company would be saving min utes to themselves and unnecessary efforts to their patrons if they chang ed the running boards at another stopping place.

Washington, June 11.-Rental charges of approximately $9,0OO,0oo should be made against the postal service for the use of space in the federal buildings throughout the coun- try, according to former Senator Jona- than Bourne, Jr., chairman of the Congressfonal commission investigat- ing matters of railway mail pay and relative subjects.
 In a statement, today, MT.
