QUEER ANIMAL TRAPS
Not Intended as Such, but They Prove
Deadly Lures

Ihat almost unerring instinct which
carries animals through grave dangers
has led in many instances in the Mid
way and Sunset oil fields of California
to their undoing. Chief among such
victims are rabbits and water fowl.
A jackrabbit and a cottontail find
a nice round smooth hole. There are
many such in the oil fields, where oil
piping is necessity for the transporta-
tion of oil to the refneries. The rab-
bits decide to set up housekeeping
there The cottontail desires perma-
nent home. and the .iackrabbit wants a
refuge safe from malevolent man.
Soon they discover their habitat is
being moved. No doubt they are
frightened, but they instinctively stay
within their retreat. One end of the
hole is closed. Even then they do not
leave. Soon the other end of the hole
is darkened. Then it is darkness eter-
nal for the furry pair.
Some time later it is discovered that
newly-laid oil pipe line is choked.
After great labor the line is disjointed
and the remains of many rabbits re-
moved. Thousands of rabbits have
been thus exterminated in the oil fields.
The death rate among water fowl is
even greater. Again, as with the rab-
bits, instinct leads them to certain de-
struction. Every little lake of oil in
the vicinity of gusher is a trap for
the mthinking birds. At twilight and
dawn these tar-colored lakes appear as
bodies of water to the deluded fowl

that four out of five of your fallen sis
ters have lost their virtue through the
dance, won't you sacrifice your pleas
ure in it for the sake of the girl who
goes down to hell through it? You say
people danced in Bible times. Yes,
Bible characters danced to the Lord,
and the sexes danced separately. Just
announce dance at the town hall to-
morrow night for men only and l II be
there, but most of you men wouldn t.
The only fascination in dancing is in
the thrill of the embrance of the oppo,
site sex.
"No girl can frequent the average
dance hall and be embraced by every
Tom, Dick and Harry, and come out
with the same modesty. Now, don't go
away and say | said no girl who dances
can be pure. / didn't say that. Many
pure young women do love to dance,
and it is for their protection that |
speak. You say You go only to select
dances and dance with the best young
men, you may be very much mistaken
as to their moral character. You can t
be soul winner and dance, you II have
no power with the Son of God. In the
name of the weak ones who need you,
in the name of the Christ who died for
them and you, won t you make a sacri-
fee for Jesus Christ?'
As Mr.. Miller appealed to all Chris
tians, whether or not they have danced
or played cards in the past to pledge
themselves to do neither, henceforth,
the space in front of the platform was
crowded, and the aisles half wav back
were filed.
Mr.. Fulton led in a prayer that these
Christians, by reason of their taking
this stand, might be led into great and
effective service in winning souls for
the Master. Mr.. Miller said after the
meeting that he had never before had
so full a response to such an appeal.
A number of persons made definite
acceptance of Jesus Christ at this time.

was held in the tabernacle taking the
place of the cottage prayer meetings.

SUFFRAGE WILL WIN IN end ]
|. Says SENATOR N. c. CLAPP.
Audience Filled the House of Repre-
sentatives Last Evening When the
Senator From Minnesota Discussed
Suffrage

An audience that filed the hall of
the House of Representatives last night
heard United States Senator Moses 4.
Clapp, of Minnesota, deliver brilliant
and convincing address in favor of Civ
ing the ballot to women. Senator
Clapp's address was particularly eff
fective and opportune, inasmuch as the
suffrage resolution was to be presented
in the House to-day by Representative
William H. Wilson, of Philadelphia.
This decision was reached yesterday
after Mrs. Frank NJ. Roessing, president
of the Pennsylvania Woman S Suffrage
Association, and committee had dis
cussed the matter with Governor Brum-
baugh. The resolution, after presenta-
tion, will at once be referred TO the com
mittees so that there may be no delay
in sending it through the House to the
Senate.
Senator Clapp was introduced to the
audience of men and women by Speaker
Amber, after Mrs. Mabel Cronise
Jones, president of the Central Penn
sylvania Suffrage Association, under
whose auspices the meeting was held,
had opened it.
Senator Clapp's speech was a
aightforward presentation of the sub
ject of equal suffrage. lie urged that
the most important reason why women
should obtain the ballot was not that
she was entitled to it, but that the
American republic needed her as a mem
Der of the electorate. He declared
. that the government of this country
will never be true democracy until all
of its citizens are real participants in
its administration. We are bound to
have democracy some day, and no mat
ter how the granting of the rights of
franchise to women may be temporarily
delayed, it is sure to come -
After the address twenty men told
Senator Clapp that they intended to
vote for the bill, and one man, who
said he had fully decided to vote
against it, would now vote for it.
