EVANGELIST BUCK TELLS MEN
OF THEIR RESPONSIBILITY
TOWARD NEioHBoRs.

Evangelist Bucks message last
night at the revival service in the
Main Street M. Il. church was taken
from the text, Romans 1872. For
none of US liveth to himself and no
man dieth to himself" was an unusual
ly strong sermon, showing the infiu-
ence man has on his fellows and how
God holds man responsible for the Inn
pressions he makes on the lives of 9th
ers.
The music is one Of the big features
Of the meetings, the large chorus is do
ing splendid work, under the leader.

Greed makes mans heart so little
that If you would take 745 Of them and
string them together on hair there
would be room enough for them to
rattle and that Is all.
There are enough orphans in this
world made so by liquor to belt this
cid world around and across the seas
four times. Think Of It.
When you stick your little old head
up against God you have to give up
and you might as well give in first as
last.
God cannot push you into Heaven
backwards. That's not Gods way.
When you surrender everything to
God that moment you become child
of God and bless your sweet soul you
will know it the minute you become a
child of God.
No man goes through life without in.
fluencing everyone whom he touches.
We are just as responsible for what
we make other folks do, as what we
do ourselves.

The Trouble at the Panama Canal
Slides That Block 1t Are Mertabe for the Present
and Have Been Foreseen 81, f
BY JOHN M. GOODELL
Former Editor "The Engineering Record

There is absolutely no reason for
the people of the United States to feel
worried about the so-called slide
which will stop traffic through the
Panama canal for some weeks. Ship
owners who route their vessels via
the canal have been warned repeated
ly that the canal service Is still liable
to Interruptions of this nature. If
they run the risk of such delays as
that now imposed upon them they
have no cause for complaint if slide
They take a gambling chance with
nature when they tell their masters
to take the lsthmian route. Slides
will continue to happen until the
banks of the deep rock cut. where
they occur, have assumed slope of
such an inclination that there will be
no tendency for further sliding. No
body in authority on the Panama can
al has ever said otherwise. The ma
terial of the recent slide is being re-
moved in such a comprehensive way
that when the work Is completed little
more will be likely to break into the
canal in great masses. But no man
VINO has studied the nature of these
Interruptions to the use of the canal
will hazard a definite statement OF
the date when all sliding will cease
forever
The latest slide is not slide IN the
ordinary sense of the term, but Is
break or collapse Of an enormous
mass of soft rock about twelve hun
dreo feet long on one side Of the can
al and shorter mass on the oppo-
site side There was true earth
slide of enormous dimensions about
a quarter of q mile from the present
break. That slide began while the
French were digging the canal and
continued intermittently until Cen
eral Goethals decided 1t had caused
bother enough. He ended the trouble
there by washing away all the materi-
al capable of sliding, employing the
methods used in extensive placer min
ing operations. 1t is understood that
he wishes to handle the present break
in the same comprehensive manner, if
it proves practicable to do so. 1t
