Thomas on Real Religion.
J G. Thomas spoke informally on
his personal idea of what constitutes
Religion. He said that the religion
hi service is the only real religion,
and that churches and similar instf-
buttons were not religious il they do
hot serve the people. Mr.. Thomas
thinks that these organizations have
been established as a means for peo-
ple to work together collectively In
Serving mankind.
Religion said Mr.. Thomas, CON
|sists in mans being square, honest,
Blind. gentle, and in making people
|happy-in giving rather than get

who said that "the measure of mans
success depends upon what he gave

rs the biggest kind of success pos

Old Glory Highest Of All.

In commenting on the tribute that
is paid great men he said:
Germany. until she had lost in her
soul materialism worshipped at the
shrine of Martin Luther, but 1t was a
long step downward from the high
idealism and Christian standards or
Luther to Herr Krupp with his big
guns.
1--WE honor the tri-color OF France
and the Union Jack of Great Britain
vet we know that Old Glory stands for
higher ideals than any other banner,
"Where patriotism is handed down
from one generation to another, that
nation can never perish from the
earth.
THE world ie being remade and
recast in a new mold; thrones are
tottering and crowns are tumbling
from the brows of erstwhile kings and
sceptors are falling from the palsied
hands of rulers. Human history is an
evolution. We are not perfect but we
are going on toward perfection"

Nethercut.
The veterans of the civil war, re-

their own seats reserved for them.
There were number of the khaki

Very Large Audience There.
The large audience filed the large
auditorium of Trinity church and
overlooked into the connecting Sun
day school room.
AS each soldier of the wars en-
tered the vestibule, pink carnation
was pinned on his coat lapel.
The minister spoke in well modu-
lated tones, very distinctly, so that
the older veterans could understand
his words, and they seemed to appre-
Iciate this.
They all were highly praising the
sermon this morning, many saying IT
was one Of the best they ever heard
and that it was very appropriate to
the occasion.
"The remembrance of the past Is an

speaking on the topic Retrospect ana

NO other nation has such abundant
reason to give thanks for anniversary

Retrospect emphasizes the value OF
liberty. Man was born to be free. The
voice of Moses speaking four thou

LET Isreal GO, was the voice of God
and God has spoken to the Pharaos
of all ages saying that His people
must be free.

continuation of an age old war: the
same struggle that has been going on
since time began. Two principles
have been struggling for supremacy
since the world began-demociacJ
and autocracy."

CONTRACT WORK FOR DRIVING OF
 JUAL|N TUNNEL
Day Work Has Been Aban- doned on the Big Tun- neI and Work For it Has
 Ben Let by Contract

The driving of the Jualn tunnel has been let by contract and Olal Tronstad, c. Bomby and Carl Edl son, three well known miners, have secured the contract
 The company has been driving the tunnel heretofore by day work with a crew of men under Foreman James Chapados, but decided that the work could be expedidated under the con tract system.
 This is the tunnel that is to drain the mine as well as acting as a tram ming tunnel for the mine. The Hume that is to carry the water is to run underneath the track It is expected that when completed the new work will solve the mining problem at the Jualn, the mine having been exceed ingly wet and difficult to work on that account.
 The contractors left last night on the .Estebeth for the scene of their future operations with a view of min CTS consisting of some of the best hard rock men in this neighborhood

MINING WORK
 IS PROCEEDING
 ON BIG SCALE
Much Development Work Has Been Accomplished at William Henry Bay
 By Mining Company

Today there is one of the best displays of ore in the window of the Brunswick Cigar Store that has ever been seen in Juneau. The rock is from the mine of the Alas ka Endicott Mining and Milling Company at William Henry Bay and was taken from the face of the from the mouth.
 The rock is very heavily miner alized and carries values of gold, silver and copper. The values are mostly in the concentrates. The company has had crew of twenty men working all summer drifting on the ledge and they have been in pay ere all the time. The ledge is known to be at least twenty feet in width.
 Among the Improvements made on the property this summer have been the construction of bunk houses, a wharf and saw mill SO that now there is quite a camp on the bay.
 The President of the company. c. W. Mason, is TOW at the Sea Level mine near Ketchikan. dis mantling the thirty stamp mill on that property and he, with his crew of men and that mill. will be on board the City of Seattle bound for William Henry Bay. Upon the ar rival of the mill on the property active construction work on the mill will commence and it is thought that in short time it will be in operation.
 As most of the values of the ore are in the concentrates it is thought that for a time the concentrates will be shipped to a smelter for treatment and as the ore is a flux- ing ore the smelting costs will be kept down.

Astronomer Says Planets VIII Be Grouped in a Way Never Before Ex-
 perienced

Owing to a strange grouping of six mighty planets, such as has not been seen in score of centuries, the United States next December will be swept by the most terrific cataclysm experienced since human history began, according to Prof. Alberta F. Porta, who has the fol- lowing to say:
 It will be caused by the huge5t sunspot on record
 A sunspot that will be visible to the naked eye.
 Since men first began to make records of events no sunspot has been large enough to be seen with out the aid of instruments. This one will be.
 The sunspot that will appear De- cember IT, 1919, will be a vast wound in the side of the sun.
 It will be a gigantic explosion of flaming gases, leaping hundreds of miles out into space It will have crater large enough to engu'f f the earth as Vesuvius might engulf football
 Such sunspot will be rich enough to electro-magnify energy to fling the atmosphere of our plan ct into disturbance without precc- dent or parallel.
 There will also be gigantic lava eruptions, great earthquakes, to say nothing of floods and fearful cold.
 I make this startling phophecy with no desire to be merely sensa- tional or alarming. It is because study of the planets has revealed certain results with mathematical certainty, that l say to you: Be warned in advance Tremen- dous things are going to happen from Dec. 17 to Dec. 20, 1919, and afterwards.
 Here are the simple yet astound- ing facts, that enable me to make this prophecy:
 The planets in their orbits swing in great eclipses about the sun They are linked to the sun, and to each other, by chains of electro magnetic energy whose compelling forces counteract each other and hold each planet in it's regular path. Whenever two planets wheel into such positions that they pull to- gether with the sun-either in "con- junction to the same side of the sun, or in Opposition" with the hnf thpiP IInitn6 causes the suns gases to explode to leap out into space in the whirling volcano we call a sun- spot.
 These sunspots in turn cause storms in the atmosphere of our earth-doubtless on other planets as well.
 Two planets, united are enough to cause a small snnspot and 8 small storm. Three cause larger one-four make very great storm indeed.
 But-on Dec. IT, 1919, no less than seven planets will pull jointly on the sun These will include all the mightiest planets, those with the most powerful pull. Six of Mercury. Mars, Ve- nus, Jupiter, Saturn and Neptune will be in conjunction; grouped together in the greatest league of planets ever known in the an nals of astronomy.
 They will be massed in the mar row limit of 26 degrees, on the same side of the sun.
 Directly opposite, coming into op- position with this gigantic league, will be the huge planet Uranus. The magnetic currents between Ur- anus and the six planets Will pierce the sun like mighty spear.
 Our earth is outside the league
