All Methodi.ts Join.

At a special sixtieth anniversary meet
ing OF all Omaha Methodists at the First
church in the afternoon the three score

brated and talked over by Methodist lay
men of the city. A representative OF each

quenly interrupted his remarks. Religi-
Gus truths mingled with witty illustra-
tons, and his enforcement of scriptural
facts was constantly interspersed with
humorous stories that served the double
purpose of holding the congregation
tense with interest and OF interpreting
religious doctrine in terms OF everyday
life. As a result the listeners were deeply
impressed, and were so strongly moved
by the alternating moods and style OF
the visiting pastor. that when they were
plunged from breathless attention to
amused relaxation. they forgot the limit

plause.
Rev. Mr.. Mitchell preached on the
themes of mans personal accountability
to God. his personal duties. his oppor-
tunitieS to shape his own destiny in the
world and his privilege nevertheless OF
casting his burden on the Lord" The
minister said In part:
THE place does not make the man
Man makes his own place In this world

spite OF his environment. He cannot

GENEVA PROFESSOR
 LOSES HIS JOB BY
 HIS WAR COMMENT

Berne, Switzerland. Dec. 9Prof. Hugo CIaparade, of the University of Geneva, son of the Swiss minister to Berlin, has been disrnissed from the university by the Swiss federal coun- ci1 on the ground that his expressed views concerning the violation of Bel giun neutrality are in contrast to the observation of neutrality by switzer- land.
 Prof. Claparede had offered his resig- nation following demonstration against him by the students but the federal council declined to accept it and instead dismissed him.
 The student demonstration occurred on November 24 as Prof Claparede reached his classroom. A delegation Of students met him and read an ad- dress in which they asked him to re- sign because your attitude prohibits you to continue to occupy a public post remunerated by the state Later the matter was brought up in the federal council through an interpretation by Deputy De Rabours.

BREMEN BROUGHT BEFORE BOARD FOR
 ERROR ON ALARM

 Fifth Against Speeding

Five dremen were before the com l nissioners last night, four to explain how they came to go wrong in re- l spending with apparatus to an alarm on November 26 and the fifth, to ex- plain why he turned the corner of i Mountain Grove street and Fairfield avenue so sharply in responding to an 1 alarm on November 26 that his lieu tenant was thrown off.
 Novem Der 26 was Thanksgtving l day. An alarm for a brush fire came in from box 852. Lieutenant West of No. Engine company counted the : box as S5. James Alexander driver of the company brought his engine to box 85 at the direction of Lieut.. ] west William Flick. driver for No. i 2 truck was on his way to the proper box but saw Alexander going in an other direction and thinking that he was wrong he followed Alexander. He , with his captain, Patrick HamiH ap- peared before the comrnissi toner's last night. The men explained what had happened and were allowed to go with an a5dmonition to be more careful in the future.
 Driver Killian of No. 3 Engine com pa,ny was accused by Chief Mooney Of driving at the rate of 40 miles an hour when going to the fire on the afternoon of November 27 when his brother. Lieut.. KiIlian was thrown off. He told the commissioners heswa go-@ ing less chan 25 miles an hour He. too was allowed to osafter being told to be more cautious in the future
 Conferences Of the fire captains and the commissioners will be held next year for the purpose Of discussing matters of interest to the department.
