Consider the pumpkin.
 It hideth itself among the growing corn.
 It is the lowliest of all the things that groweth in the fields.
 The proud farmer spurneth it and the Small Boy laugheth it to scorn.
 The Wise Men of the Agricultural College lectureth not upon it. Never hath it caused a car shortage.
 The bugs devoureth it not and the beetles and the little and big worms and the moths and the weevils and all the mighty host that preyeth upon the naughty corn and wheat and the spuds, give it the go-by.
 Behold it is the Goat of the Vege- table Kingdom.
 Yet there cometh day when the wife of the husbandman cutteth the Pumpkin into golden squares and boil eth it in the syrup of the sugar cane and addeth thereunto sweet spices, yea even cinnamon and cloves and ginger.
 And To. A miracle is performed.
 She bringeth forth from the oven the Pumpkin Pie, and the odor there of is sweeter than the breezes from Clutch.
 And the husbandman and the small boy and the Hired Man falleth down in adoration and watereth at the mouth.
 For it is morsel fit for Kings and Princes.
 You know it.

What? Why he didn't want to tell-though it happened on July P, and, but for his brother, City Councilman Walter Moser, the Examiner wouldn't know it yet
 Miss Ivy Klaus used to be a popu- lar nurse in Yuma, and left for the coast Alvin went also in auto. Near Les Angeles a wreck occurred and here is where the romance comes in just like in the movies, nurse was summoned, and it happened to be Yumas popular nurse
 Alvin quickly recovered under care ful nursing They were welded at San Diego where they are spending some of the honeymoon and, before returning to Yuma, it is probable that they will visit other points.
 Mr. Moser is a talented singer and capable business man. Their hosts of friends join with the Examiner in extending congratulations.

MOB TAXES LED FRANK FROM JAIL PLACE BODY 0N VICTIMS GRAVE'

Milledgeville, Ga, Aug. 17. Leo M. Frank, Georgia s noted life term convict, was removed from the Georgia prison farm here late last night by twenty-five armed men who overpowered War den Smith.
 Previous to the attack the wires leading out of the pri- son itself were cut. Frank was placed in an automobile and rushed in the direction of Eatonton.
 It has not been ascertain ed whether Frank was lynch ed or whether the party that removed him from the prison were his friends.
 The attack was made very shortly after midnight. The warden and most of the guards were sleeping on the rear porch of the main build ing in which the prisoners were confined. Both the Warden and the guards were handcuffed, after which the party entered the prison and removed Frank.
 The mob is variouSly esti- mated at between twenty-five and seventy-five. The first reports that they might be friends of Frank were dis carded when a prisoner said he heard a member of the mob say that Franks body would be placed tomorrow on the grave of Mary Phagan at Marietta, for whose mur- der Frank was serving a life term.

Christian, and after he had aroused the

question, the preacher pointed out that
the only Scriptural ground for divorces
was adultery, and told how he had turned

divorced.
"On the divorce question I'm a Roman

to show what the American people spend
for luxuries and in dissipation in a year.

Text-"And why call ye Me Lord, Lord,
Luke, vi, 49,
do you believe Jesus meant what He
said?" asked Billy Sunday last evening
as he opened his sermon.
He referred to certain bishop of
the Church OF England who said that
the teachings of Jesus Christ were
merely ideal and not to be carried into
effect in this day, and to a certain Judge
who made a similar statement "And
yet both had the audaclty to call them
selves Christians" he explained. "There
Is as much difference between Christians
and Christianity as between heaven and
hell"
1t was his regret he said that Chris
tianity as generally accepted had retro
graded from the early form when love
was the dominant principle. Love may
be thwarted and baffled. but It can
never be defeated" he declared.
He told of a hobo who went to the
back door of a certain house and begged
for a handout. Instead of something to
eat, he was given a tract, which he inn
mediately tore up amid curses and de-
parted for some more generous locality
1t was practical Christianity that the
hobo wanted, said Mr. Sunday and the
way to thaS mans heart was through his
stomach, not through his brain. Love
is the mightiest thing In the world The
world is starving for practical demon-
stration of Christianity" he exclaimed.
Turning to the labor question, Sunday
declared there was no difference between
capital and labor which could not be set
tied by the principles laid down by the
Son of God and that II these principles
were followed strikes and lockouts would
be abolished. If these principles were
not followed. he said. efforts at settle
ment would fail Just as others had failed
In all ages Of the worlds history.
