come ii matter, mute n lnaIlll-
ate, tho changed by the forces of ma

never die, will the imperial spirit Of
man suffer humiliation after it has
paid a brief visit, like a royal guest,

Rather let us believe that He who
in His apparent prodigality wastes
not the raindrop, the blade of grass,
" the evenings signing zephyr, but
makes them all to carry out His eter.
nal plans, has given immortality to
the mortal. and gathered to himself
the generous spirit Of our friends and
sisters.
But this is not a "lodge Of sorrow.

practical and helpful significance is
in viewing this as an inspiration for

have no hope.
Next Sunday all Christendom viii

OF all the scriptural truths emphas-
lied in the beautiful ritual Of the Or

more prominent than those e%xemplifl-
ed by Martha at the Fourth Point Of
the Star, symbolizing not only her
sisterly human grief, but also her I'M
shaken hope Of Immortality because
of her individual belief in him who
said II am the resurrection and the
Life"
We can beat honor the memory OF
our departed sisters and brothers by
following their footsteps, as led by
"'The fairest among thousands, al

!.1One Of the most significant phrases
in the optimism and service address,
es Of MI. johnson, who talked to us
so i~nspiringly last week is: "You
don't have to die to go to heaven-you
have to live, and you cross the line
just as Don as you start serving
Others" We.have here epi:omized in
a new setting, the old ideas of faith

The past year has been a red letter

COPENHAGEN, June "a Dane

When this took place he said, there

The leading Bolsheviki, he de-
clared, realized clearly that the
game was lost. The Red army was
absolutely unreliable. Epidemics
we're raging throughout Russia and
there were not enough collins for
the dead. Communications were at

the very second he rose to his full
height to lead his men to the as

SAN FRANCISCO FANS
PICK DEMPSEY TO
WIN BIG FIGHT
WILLARD BUT HUGE
BULK

SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, June g.
In no city in the country are Jess
Willard, the heavyweight champion
boxer, and Challenger Jack Dempsey
better known among the followers
of the ring than in this city. Both
men practically made their start
here-that is, their serious ring
careers, although both men had
fought practically as unknown be-
fore coming here. For this reason
an unusual amount of interest is
being taken here in the champion
ship contest which is slated to be
staged at Toledo on Independence
day.
Wizards fight against "Gunboat"
Smith in which Willard lost the de-
cision, was the first real opportunity
followers Of the ring here had of
estimating the worth of Willard. 1t
Is recalled that Willard did not
make much of a reputation for him
self as a fighter but his great bulk
was the wonder of the day. 1t fire.
Guently was commented on at the
time that If Willard ever gained
the championship it would be more
through his enormous size than for
any particular ability he had as a
fighter.
Willard engaged in several minor
bouts here after his meeting with
Smith but he failed to convince the
sporting fraternity. He made a poor
showing against Charlie Miller in a
four round bout. Miller, who Is a
motorman, had little to recommend
him aside from his size and rug
gedness but he succeeded in maxi
ing Willard practically run away
from him during the IL minutes of
boxing. This was called a draw by
the referee.
Dempsey, on the other hand.
made a decided hit from the start
and it was predicted that he was a
fighter who must be taken into con-
sideration sooner or later. Under
the circumstances it is not difficult
to account for the strong Dempsey
sentiment which exists here among
ring followers, the majority OF
whom, as far as can be determined,
believe Dempsey will be returned
the victor after his meeting with
the present champion. Those who
favor Willard continue to point to
his great bulk rbther than to his
fighting ability (which later, how.
ever thew say Undoubtedly has i'm
proved through experience since he

HOME RULE HOPE
IS INCREASING
IN IRELAND
INCIDENTS DURING VISIT OF
AMERICAN DELEGATES
ARE SIGNIFICANT

DUBLIN, June 10.-The ne re-
suit of the visit to Ireland of three
American delegates representing
Irish societies in America apparently
has been to convince the American
visitors that the great majority of
the Irish people desire a republic
and nothing else. Another apparent
effect has been to convince doubling
sections of the Irish people that the
establishment of an Irish republic
is practical.
The American visitors dealt with
De Valera as though he were a
real president and when Frank
Walsh, one of the Americans, an
nounced that he had a to ex-
pect that a safe conduct would be
granted to enable De Valera and
Count Plunket to go to the peace
conference, the Sim Feiners were
iUbilant.
The Unionists passed resolutions
and set all the wires working to
check any possible relation between
Premier Lloyd George and the Irish
republicans.
The attitude of the government
authorities while the delegation was
in Ireland was regarded as signifi-
cant. There is a stringent military
order f%orbidding professions and
n,,H1;, nnnnk;nnc yutthn,,f a nnrv,tf
ard before the arrival of the Ameri-
cans there had been numerous prose-
cutions and sentences both in Dublin
and throughout the country punish
ing men for unauthorized meetings
and for forming fours" in process
sion.
Yet there was not the slightest in
reference with the huge professions
organized in Cork and Dublin for
the delegates, or any attempt to pre-
vent either them or the Slim Fein
leaders whose guests they were from
addressing mass meetings of thou
sands who crowded into the fashion
able square in Dublin in which the
delegates had their residence. The
Lord Lieutenant and the Chief Sec
rotary wei said to be dissatisfied
land helpless.
All this has made a deep impress
sion in Ireland with the result that
very many people who a few weeks
& thought an Irish republic was
either a pretense or a dream have
come to think it a possibility. They
will look eagerly for the fulfillment
of the expectations aroused. If they
arc not realized, and experienced
politicians do not see how they car
be, the disappointment is likely to
be very great.

BRITAIN'S ACE Of ACES IS
ANNOUNCED BY MINISTRY

LONDON, June THE late Ma
jor E w. Mannock was the leading
ACE" of the British aviation corps
but it was not until months after
the armistice that the fact was
known and he never will be Off
cially credited by the air ministry
with being E%ngland's premier flyer.
1t was the policy of the ministry
during the war not to proclaim in
dividual exploits and it has not been
changed since fighting ceased.
The record of Mannock's Is
months service is most unusual. He
started by outwitting examining
physicians in ~concealing the fact
that he was blind in one eye. At
80 years of age he was older than
most of the pilots in training but
he seemed to lack nothing required
of a successful air fighter and soon
qualified and went to France.
Immediately he adopted tactics
peculiar to himself and it finally
was a deviation from those that
brought him down. He always flew
very high and enticed his adversary
into a high fight but, in bringing
down his 73rd German he chased his
falling foe too near the ground and
a bullet from an anti-aircraft gun
Hended his career.
Officers of the Royal Air Force
has acclaimed him the greatest air
tactician in the service. He had
none of the eccentricities prevalent
among successful French aviators
but he was scientific. persistent and
logged. One of his brother officers
recently said that he had seen Man
mock stalk a Hun for an hour or
more, attempting to gradually draw
him higher and then. when the

turning to the moving picture thea

the amusement business.
More moving picture theaters
have changed hands in California

than ever before in the history of
the business. This is similar to the
change in ownership of the moving
picture houses that was noted when
Oregon and Washington were put in

picture business are authority for
the statement that prohibition in

RUHR STRIKE HAS
COST WORKERS
HUGE sum
COAL STRIKE Is CAUSE OF A
HEAVY LOSS no
GERMANY

BERLIN, June 1O.-The strike
recently concluded in the Ruhr coal
district has cost the miners 73,500,-
900 marks in wages. The output
deficit for April is 3,330,000 tons
representing more than 10000, 900
marks. The loss to physical prop
erty is believed to be so great as
to preclude profitable operation for
a long time to come.
The miners in the Ruhr coal fields
are more than 100000 marks
out on their wages account as the
strikes have been going on inter-
mittently since the beginning of the
revolution. In the Hamborn district
miners struck SO days out of lao
working days between November 8
and April %.
The loss to the nation as a re-
suit of the coal strikes cannot be
computed. 1t caused a general par
alysis or railway traffic, the shut
ting down of industrial plants and
a loss of revenue and freight to the
state railways. The national strike
fever is believed to have caused a
depreciation in the national currency
of more than 10000, 100000 marks
and to have aided to depress the
value Of the German mark abroad.
