with stones in their hands. and
Jesus came up and said, Hold on.

Neither do l condemn you. You

I asked Jarius. the ruler, who
was Jesus?' "Oh, He gave back
my child to life. He turned my
tears into joy, my sorrow into
laughter-that was jesus"
Then I asked the great multi
tude as l see them. who was
Jesus?" and with glad voices they
shouted. "Oh. Jesus gave US hear
ing. He gave us sight. He made
the lame to walk. He cleansed the
lepers. He fed us when we were
hungry,-that was Jesus!"
And 1 asked Barabbas. see a
fellow coming down the streets of
Jerusalem, his wife on one side
and leading a little boy by the

who was Jesus?"
Why" he said. Jesus was the
one that died in my place. I was
condemned TO death, and justly,

With their heads high and AFRO

Jesus, that deceiver Who told US
to our faces that we were whit

children of he'll, that We were a
generation of vipers. that we de-
stroyed widows houses and for
pretense we made long-winded
prayers, that we comprised land

when we had made him he was
two-fold more a child of hell than

He. sir, that told US that we were
vile and like a platter that looked
fine on the outside, and was like a
sepulchre, made fine appearance
with the flowers on top, but in

and dead mems bones? We, the
proud children of Abraham! He
goaded US to such desperation, sir,
that we bribed one of his followers
He committed suicide as we came
down the street. He is lying out

money. And then by false testi-

Nearly every afternoon Rodey
helps the audiences to learn a new
song. He is helping them to learn
. many of the songs in the books
which are used at the meetings, and
from time to tine these are intro
duced at the evening meetings.
The Moline high school sent a
large delegation of young people
to the tabernacle last evening and
they were running over with pep
and enthusiasm They had a loT
of yells and songs which they
pulled off with zest and vim.

sides of it's bearings. Also, if the ignl- tion occurs too early in the stroke the piston will be forced down on the shaft and cause a bad knock. This may also arise from pregnition. The camshaft, although not subjected to the extremely severe service of crankshaft, is, new ertheless, source of noise. If the bear ings become loose the valve springs, when compressed by the lifting cam, will force the camshaft away and thus cause light tapping noise which is extremely hard to locate. As there are eight cams on a four-cylinder motor and more on a six, eight or twelve, this noise will become almost continuous at uni formly high speeds with even slightly loose bearings.
 The piston often becomes loose on it's pin on account of it's location. and diff hcult of providing fabrication due to heat As the piston changes it's direction twice for every revolution of the crankshaft. the noise will be quite pronounced with but slight wear in the bearing. This also is true if the rings are loose in their slots. for they will stop every time the piston changes it's direction. After long use the cylinder becomes oval-shaped. owing to the angular thrust exerted by the con- meeting rod, and as the piston becomes worn on the same surface decided loose ness will result.
 The connecting rod having a bearing on each end, is a very prolific source of knocks. Its direction is changed twice

at the usual driving speed with spajN lever set. Then, by varying the spaT4.< lever, the slap will continue or cease. It can be eliminated for a short time by injecting heavy oil in the cylinder. This slap is caused by a large cylinder bore, small piston, or a tapered piston or bore. A remedy occasionally suggested is to offset the piston pin hole when re- newing the piston. A broken or loose ring will be difficult to locate, and is generally diagnosed as either of the above two knocks.

 This is distinguished by hard. con tinuouS rattle or a series of sharp knocks, particularly at low engine speeds. The nature of the knock will change as the motor is speeded up. It can be located by releasing the clutch and rocking the

tinguished by a sharp metallic noise, oc- curing twice when the spark plug is short-circuited. The knock will appear regularly, and it is very sharp when the engine is pulling hard. The knock can also be located by speeding up the motor, then closing the throttle suddenly. In doing so you will get a double knock which is very sharp. Piston pin knocks are caused by cracked or broken pin, or a tight or, badly worn member.
 PISTON

Motor knocks may be due four distinct causes which may be defined as follows:

The Birmingham age-herald., 1919-10-05

This is a characteristic sharp bump or thud. The best method to locate it is by ,short-circuiting the spark plub, when two knocks will be noticeable, since the explosion pressure is eliminated, Con meeting rod knocks may be caused by twisted rod, loose bearing, scored bear ing, burnt-out bearing or side play. In the case of seized or burnt-out bearing, the motor will also groan when starting cold The connecting rod bearing will make much louder noise than piston bearing. as the latter will make more of a tapping sound than a knock Another good indication of connecting rod bear ing knock is that the knock will not be near so prominent when the spark is retarded with the motor running idle.

REJECT GERMAN IDEAS

Effect of Terms.
Declare Germans Fail to Appreciate
the Enormity Of Their Response
bility for War.

Paris, May PA categoric mega
tive reply to the German note on the
economic effect of the peace terms was
sent by the Allied council to the Ger.
man delegation. The reply charac-
terizes the German note as exagger-
ated, and says ii indicates failure to
appreciate the enormity of the Ger
mans responsibility.
The Germans are reminded that Ii
is right that Germany, which was re-
sponsible for the origin of these ca
lamities, should make them good to
the utmost of her capacity"
The Allied reply to the German note
regarding the league of nations, which
was delivered, says in general that
the council considers that "the pro
posals for the covenant are much more
practical than those of the German
government and better calculated to
secure the objects of the league"
Regarding the suggestion of a sep
arate mediation office, this is not con
sidered feasible, since such a body
would not have the requisite authority
to maintain the peace of the world.

BurIeson Sends Recommended
tions of Control Board to
House Committee.
END LABOR TROUBLES
Proposals include Creation of Tribunal
to Hear All Controversies That
Arise Between Companies
and Employees.

Washington, May 24.-Postmaster
General Burleson forwarded to the
house postoffice committee recommen-
dations of the wire control board that
legislation returning the telephone and
telegraph systems of the country TO
private ownerships provide co-ordi-
mated operation of the various sys-
TENS and fixing of rates by the inter-
state commerce commission.
The wire boards recommendation
also include creation of tribunal to
hear all controversies between employ
ers and employees and that changes In
wage schedules shall not become effec.
tive until submitted to the Interstate
Commerce commission, SO that CORE
spending changes may be made in
/ rates.
Mere return of the wires to their
owners will not solve vexatious prob.
lens confronting the companies, Mr..
| Burleson said in his letter to Repre-
| sentative Moon of Tennessee, ranking
Democratic member of the committee,
transmitting the recommendations.
/ EtYH ACStS 10 1OuttUuCs
Extraordinary costs of operation and
maintenance fastened upon them as
result of war;" the Postmaster Gen.
eral said, will continue for some
time after control passes from the gov
ernment."
Because of these extraordinary
changes in the operating conditions
the letter continued. "a serious re-
sponsibility rests upen the government
to adopt every means possible, consis-
tent with sound policy, to protect the
public and enable owners to operate
their properties.
Members of the board are of the
opinion that in order to provide the
most efficient wire service the various
service systems should be co-ordinated
as to operation. This does not require
monopoly of ownership, but is neces-
sary so there can be a consistent and
harmonious regulatory policy.
To Stop Duplication.
Through this means only can the
attempts at wasteful competition and
the economic loss occasioned by dupli
cations of plant and force be avoided
Hence it is believed the law should
be so amended as to empower the In
terstate Commerce commission to fiz
rates for telegraph and telephone com
panies, subject to provisions OF the
act and that any company whose lines
are located entirely within state, but
which transacts direct interstate bust
ness should be subject to the act"
