May Take Civil Service Exmainations
 Wherever Given.


 The United States civil service com mission announces that on March 2l- 191S the president approved joint resolution of congress suspending, dur ing the period of the present war, the operation of the provision of law which required applicants for civil service examinations to be examined in the state or territory in which they reside. During the period of the war therefore, applicants for any examina- ton held by the commission may be examined at any place at which the examination is held, regardless of theil place of residence.
 An act of July 2, 1908, required ex- aminations to be taken In the state O. residence. While this provision is sus. pended for the period of the war, il is still required that only those who have been actually domiciled in tht state or territory in which they reside for at least one year previous to tho examination may become eligible fol permanent appointment to the appor- tioned departmental service in Wash. | ington, D. c.
 The commission expects this change to make it easier to obtain applicant, for positions in Washington. Compe tent stenographers, typists and book | keepers are in great demand. Exam ], nations for these positions are fel( weekly throughout the country. Rep. resentatives of the civil service com mission at the postoffices. in all cite! are furnishing detailed information ant application blanks.

Rev. J. H. Selden,- acting pastor of Broadway church. was at the Shelter ing Arms for the Sunday afternoon service. He read for the scripture lesson the Sermon on the Mount, choosing the text, Take no thought for the morrow. Can we obey this is not foresight given us? he asked What Christ was saying was in ref erence to worrying about the future Our most grievous anxiety has been about things that never happen. Even if there is some cause for worry, it Is wonderful the strength we. have to bear it. There is q reserve of strength in human hearts, we should not BS afraid to draw upon it. Just when we think we are failing we may be sue ceeding. The things for which now I am most profoundly thankful are those that went contrary to riy plans
 The teaching of Jesus goes deep; He says, worry is a sin. : Anyone who looks forward with a heart of fore boding is doing positively wrong. be cause this is contrary to the 'funda- mental truth of religion, the nearness and reality of the goodness of God. Christ says, Your first business is to live in the spirit of confidence in God
 being sure that He will allow nothing to touch your life except what will be for good,
