She said that her father was not living, and immediately wired her mother in Glendale Cal. who replied. granting her consent.

 Following up closely the line of thought presented the eVenng before Evangelist Barnett took three illustra- lions of conversions from Acts of Apostles. and from these showed the uniformity of the law operating for conversion. In brief he spoke as fol- lows: "The Holy Spirit has seen fit to have certain conversions recorded in detail. From these we learn the steps necessary to salvation. In the case pf each Of the three conversions studied ionight-that of the ethopian noble man the samaritans and the Philippian iailor-We lind that the Holy Spirit always used the message and the mes Senger.

SULLIVAN CUES
 TO WINDY CITY
After Holding Coast Posi- tion With New York Cen tral for Eight Years Is Promoted to Higher Of flee In Chicago

Phoenix friends of F. R. Sullivan commercial agent of the New York Central Lines with headquarters in Los Angeles, have received news that is gratifying and at the same time regretted. Sullivan, who for the past eight years has held his posi- tion on the coast and whose duties have required frequent visits to Phoenix, has received deserved promotion. having been advanced to the position of export agent of the New York Central Lines with head quarters in Chicago.
 News of his promotion has been received with pleasure, but the ad- ditional news that he will remove to Chicago and that hereafter he will not be required to pay four to six visits yearly to Phoenix has made his friends almost wish the com pany hadn't recognized his ability but had left him alone in the south west.
 Sullivan has been in the employ of the New York Central railroad be- tween eivhteen and nineteen years. For eight years before coming to the coast he was employed as traV- cling freight agent with headquar- ters at St. Louis Harvey Betts, who sticks around the capitol these days worked for a living in the days when Sullivan first came out here 3etts was then in the employ ol the santa i'e as travelling freight and passenger agent, or some such position, and he and Sullivan formed q friendship that only death can sever. Goldswofthy. whose initials are W. $, and who has a life iol i as general agent of the santa Fe, is also a close friend of Sullivan. al though this should not mitigate against Sullivan. Archibald Reginal, 1 Cater, general agent of the south ern Pacific, Paul Mccoy, of the sam' ! firm. and hundreds of business mei of the southwest all have Sullivan
 on their calling list.

declares, eventually crowds out the
other birds. It multiplies rapidly
and preempts the trees and spaces of
the other birds who move out and
away before the disagreeably ag-
gressive neighbor.

like exclusive territory. They could
never become dwellers in flats. This
