AMERICAN GLASS IN CHINA.

Most of the window glass import
ed into China at present is of Ameri-
can manufacture, instead of being
the product of Belgian glass works,
as before the war. The United
States also supplies the larger part
Of the plate glass imports, says Pop
ular Mechanics, and would supply
practically all of both grades of
glass, according to our consul gen.
eral at Hongkong, if freight rates
from this country were readjusted to
meet those from Great Britain.
Large stocks of Belgian and Brit
ish window glass were on hapd in
Hongkong warehouses when the war
came, and it took a year or more to
deplete these stocks and open the
market for American glass, which
was sent to China in large quantities
IN 1915.

FAMOUS sHlP IS PRESERVED
Vessel on Which Amundsen Sailed
Through the Northwest Passage
lies on Shore Near Golden Gate.

The ship Gjoa, in which the vail.
ant Norwegian explorer, Raold
I Amundsen, made his famous trip
through the Northwest passage, dis
covering this new route, no longer
rides the waves in quest of new and
novel corners of the earth. She has
become a monument to her own and
her commanders great achievement,
and now lies, Gagged in an iron fence,
as though she were a beast, on the
shores of San Francisco bay, over
looking Golden Gate.
The Gjoa has been preserved just
as she was when Amundsen made his
memorable journey in her. She is a
small sloop-rigged vessel, but thor
oughly seaworthy in the hands of
hardy, trained sailors. She carries
a "crow's nest" or lookout station,
high up on her lofty mainmast. This
was used as a lookout point on the
trip through the passage.
The Gjoa, though now beached
for good, has an appropriate setting
for a ship hailing from q Scandi-
navian country. Immediately behind
the vessel stands not q Dutch, but
an American, windmill of the Dutch
type of construction. 1t is one of
group used to pump water ON the
beach near Golden Gate, and which
give the shoreline, viewed from in
coming ships, the appearance of a
'Little Holland" The famous old
ship is now at it's last anchorage.

Dor" stated Rev. John S. Burns in
his Sunday sermon at the First Pres
byterian church. We are looking
today i'm these troublesome times for
something that will show US the
meaning OF the titanic events that
are happening about US. Let us be
sure that this old world is not run

not lost its way.
IF you get on a ship and see the
waves and winds you cannot tell in
which direction you are going. but
if you look back you can see that
you are travelling in a straight line.
These lines as we look back repre-

are the lines by which we are to be
guided. We are assured that God is
at work. Light is right and light

pleasures Of that home There may
be those here tonight who are look
ing forward at an early date 10 the

Whenever we think about the
thought from a number of angles
we can see that everyone present
is more or less concerned in the
home. The home origin is the garden
, OF Eden. God created the first man
and then God found il was not good
for man 20 be alone and created a
woman as his helpmate. God has al
ways been concerned about the
home and horne life Later when
( Jesus came into the world he mani
tested a direct interest in the home
and home life. And the eternity
alone will reveal the pleasures en-
/ joyed which came 10 the home from

"Too much OF strength of charac-
