THE CHRIST OF THE
CENTURIES" SERMON
Rev. DR.. Sewers breaches Force
full Sermon To Large Congre-
cation Yesterday
MANY MIDSHIPMEN THERE

AT College Avenue Baptist church
yesterday morning, the minister, the
Rev. Dr. John S. Sewers, preached
before large and representative con-
gregation. including many midship-
men from the Naval academy.
The music by the choir and congre-
cation was especially good and appro-
pirate to the service. The subject of
DR.. Sewers sermon was "The Christ
of The Centuries" The minister chose
his text from Hebrews, thirteenth
chapter and eighth verse: Jesus
Christ is the same yesterday, today
yea, and unto the ages"
DR.. Sewers said, that as we pass
from the old year and come the new
year, 1919, we are impressed with the
transformers of everything earthly,
and we feel like saying as many faith
ers, mothers and children doubtless
have said in their bereavements of the
past year."
abide with me, fast falls the even
tide,
The darkness deepens-Lord, with
me abide
When other helpers fail, and COM
forts fee,
Help of the helpless, oh, abide with
me-"
The minister spoke of the many
changes in homes. in fathers and
mothers, in children, in friends, and
even in ourselves that the year has
witnessed. He said, that while there
was tinge of sadness in seeing our
dear ones grow old, change is neces-
sary or life would be too much same
ness and one magnificent monotony,
and that an individual. or church, or
nation which does not change is not of
God.
Change, however, may sometimes go
too far and become poison. We need
two things as we go into the new year
Ia source of permanence, and
spring of eternal freshness. These
things cannot be found in ourselves,
or in our friends, or even in our cir
cumstances. They can only be found
in Jesus Christ, the same yesterday,
today and forever, for He alone is
the source of absolute permanence,
the foundation upon which we may
build our life. He is the spring of
eternal freshness and is calling us,
like the freshness of the spring. Per-
manence does not mean anchorage,
but as house must have foundation
on which to build. human life must
have something on which to build If
life is one monotony it becomes in
ertia; for there can be no growth in
business or in intellectual thought or
in heart power unless there is a source
of freshness and inspiration, Jesus is
Jehovah of the Old Testament, the
heir of the ages, the effulgence of the
glory of God. In the beginning was the
Jesus, and the Jesus was with God,
and the Jesus was God Let us note
what Jesus was yesterday He was ap-
proachable-the children, the leper, the

SAILOR
SAW BOAT TORPEDOED
Richard Hyde, Home On Fur
Tough, Recounts Some Inter
esting Sea Experiences
HELPED FIGHT U-BoATS

OF the interesting experiences of
Annapolis youths who have served
their country on land and sea, during
the war which has just closed, that of
Richard Hyde, navy man, ranks
high He holds the rate of ship-fitter
and is now visiting his mother in this
city, having been given a brief fur
loughe~
Young Hyde enlisted in the early
days of the war, and the fact that he
was a skilled plumber enabled him to
get the good rating which he now
holds. Since June last he has been in
foreign waters. and shows the gold
chevron on his left forearm which
stands for at least six months foreign
service He has been attached to the
destroyer McDougal, and has been on
patrol duty of various kinds, during
which he has been participant in
many exciting adventures.
The McDougal has been on duty as
a patrol in the Bay of Biscay and the
English Channel and adjacent waters,
and has been largely engaged in meet
ing the American transports and con-
voying them. when emptied of the liv
ing freight, several days out from the
shore. 1t was on these trips that
much of the adventure of the naval
service was encountered. The young
sailor is very modest in his statements
but was willing to answer questions
about his experience.
Perhaps the most exciting adventure
which he actually witnessed was the
sinking of the transport Mt. Vernon,
about two months ago. The Mt. Ver-
non, a transport, was leaving Brest,
France, with another transport the
Agememnon When quite distance
out, German submarine came up be-
tween them in such a position that
she could not be seen by any of the
numerous destroyers which were con-
voying the ships, and was not in
position to be attacked to advantage
was about a quarter to seven in the
morning.
The submarine let loose torpedo
which struck the Mt Vernon very low
down. Water and wreckage were
thrown high above the ship. and
great hole blown in her. Twenty-six
men were killed by the explosion, but
the ship remained afioat and got back
TO Brest, while the rest of the convoy
continued its trip.
The destroyers at once closed in and
dropped depth bombs but it is not be-
lieved that submarine was hit. Ac-
cording to Mr. Hyde, il was a very
clever piece of work on the part of the
commander and company. of the u
boat.
On another occasion, while in the
Bay of Biscay, the McDougal answered
ship Westward Ho!, and arrived in
time to help it to harbor On this oc-
casion, another destroyer, the Tucker.
came up with the U-boat which had
sunk the merchant ship, and sunk her
with gun-fire. She was given official
recognition of this feat
The McDougal was not so fortunate
as to get official recognition for any
sinking, but it is believed that she gave
the quietus to two or three of the un-
der-sea pirates. In view of the fact
that it has been admitted that more
U-boats were sunk than were officially
reported, this is most likely, is the
opinion of the Annapolis sailor.

CHINESE MERCHANTS
 IN SONORA JAILED
 UNDER LABOR LAW

Every Chinese merchant in the mu- nicipal city of Magdalena, Sonora, Mexico, has been arrested by order of the mayor, Jose Maria Arana on the charge of failure to comply with the Sonora state statute making employ ment of at least 80 per cent Mexican help in all establishments, industrial or commercial, compulsory, accord ing to Fl Tiempo, a newspaper pubss, lished in Cananea, which reached Douglas today.
 The merchants were first given warning that they must replace Chi nese clerks with Mexicans. Upon their failure to comply within the time limit allowed, the merchants were arrested, tried and convicted. 'Heavy penalties were imposed' the paper said but whether this included both fines and imprisonment, allow able under the terms of the law, IS not stated.
 Mayor Arana has been the leading figure in the anti-Chinese agitation which resulted in the passage of the 7 80 per cent law at the session of the Sonora state congress in June.
 He was particularly active last year in speech making throughout Sonora in an effort to arouse the Mexicans to what he termed the "Chinese menace.
 Chinese control most of the mer- cantile business in Sonora through their mutual benefit society to which every Chinese in the state is said to pay dues. It is understood steps are to be taken to test the legality of the 30 per cent law in Mexico courts. Attorneys for the Chinese are said to be preparing briefs to show that the law violates the favored nation clause in the treaty between the gov ernment of Mexico and China.

TOO LUCKY HUNTERS SOON
 GET CHANGE TO SHOOT ELK

Any hunter in the United States will have a chance to shoot elk in Arl- ;zona next November-that is if he IS lucky. Game Warden Prochaska is now arranging for a raffle to be held soon in which the 100 winners will be granted a special license to hunt elk in the wilds of the Sitgreaves national forest. Only one animal will be allowed to be taken by each hunter during the open season of one week. The object of declaring a limited open season is to reduce the surplus number of \males. The herd, originally trans ported from the Yellowstone National park, has increased from 30 to more than 300 head.

i5SO,0O0 IN MINE TAXES ARE AVAILABLE TO STATE NOW

The sum of $58O,OO or whereabouts, which has been helds by the county treasurer of Gila county pending a settlement of the Inspiration and ln- ternational Shelter tax suits will now be available to the state, and many will come into much needed real money. State school funds have been most seriously affected.
 The last day for the filing of mo- tion for rehearing having expired without action on the part af the de- fendant companies the supreme court yesterday returned its mandate to the lower court. This mandate reversed the order of Judge Shute and upholds the tax officials of Gila county and the state tax commission. Judge Shute ordered a $20,000 reduction in the assessed valuation of the proper ties. An appeal was taken by Gila county and state tax commission and the matter argued in supreme court
 The full amount of the taxes were paid under protest by the companies treasurer, Recently State Treasurer Ross demanded that this money be turned over to the state. He contended that the state should hold and draw interest on it rather than the county notwithstanding the fact that the case had not been fully adjusted.

NATION WIDE DRIVE TO
 IMPROVE LIVE STOCK

Washington, D. C.-"Better Sires-- Better Stock"
 This is the slogan of national bet ter livestock crusade, to get actively in motion October 1, that is announced by the United States Department of Agriculture, working in cooperation with the State Agricultural colleges and other agencies interested in I've" stock improvement. The campaign looks forward to the future food needs of this country's increasing population and results from long and careful oo- servation of the livestock industry in this cuntry, and was planned after extensive consultation with specialists and breeders. The plan is to hasten the replacement of the multitude of scrub domestic animals in the United States with pure-bred or hlgh-grade stock, and also to improve the quality of pure breds themselves. The goal in view is greater efficiency in pro- duction.
 The campaign will be the first or SdHlZeu CTuSduc III 1 iol SC SooaeAS oo improve all live stock simultaneously. It will interfere in no way with any work in livestock improvement now being conducted, but makes all the work more definite and effective by providing official recognition for pro gressive breeders.
 The campaign will be supervised from the Department of Agriculture in Washington, and in each state by the State agricultural college. Coun- ty agents and other field workers of the Department of Agriculture and of the State colleges will handle the campaign locally. Every livestock owner actively cooperating and keep ing and using none but pure-bred sires of good quality will be given an em- blem as an official recognition of mer- itorious effort.

prices than those who have not test ed"
 Valuable in Cattle Exports
 "We consider cooperative tubercu- losis eradication work as now being conducted to be the greatest forward step that has been taken in a decade, and any breeder who fails to cooperate in this work is confessing that he fears the test. Our opinion is that the law should be compulsory in every pure-bred herd of every breed.
 "From a selfish standpoint, will say that putting our herd under State and Federal supervision is the best and cheapest advertisement that we ever made. It is also invaluable in our ex- port work. We have considerable trade on cattle going to other coun- tries, and having the Federal test on our whole herd saves us considerable inconvenience in having to make a Federal test of each individual ship ment."-R. R. Giltner, Giltner Bros., Eminence, Ky.
 Believes In IB FlSnt
 "All owners and breeders of dairy cattle should avail themselves of the opportunity the Federal ani State an- thorities are offering to assist in the eradication of tuberculosis" Thid is stated in letter from A. A. Pigford, farmer and stockman of Lumberton, Miss.
 Loss, Disappointment, from TIE
 "The value of keeping a pJre-bred breeding herd free from tuberculosis can not be overestimated. l: is the opinion of the writer that about as much money is lost and ab ut as much disappointment experienced in allow ing tuberculosis to become dissemln- ated in a herd as by bad management of any other character. The wise breeder will waste litle time in having his herd tested for tuberculosis Surely no breeder should start in the business without purchasing tested animals" E. S. Good, chairman Ami. nal Industry Group, University ol Kentucky. Lexington, Ky.

CATTLE OWNERS TELL WHY THEY SUPPORT
 CAMPAIGN AGAINST ANIMAL TUBERCULOSIS

eve are very anxious to have you make your final test so that cur herd can be entered as tuberculosis-free accredited herd, as we think this is one of the very best things than can be said of herd of cows" So writes J. c. Mathews, Jr., manager of Elon Farm, Jackson, Miss.,fto the United States Department of Agriculture. "We think it is better than 'tick-free herd for the tick did not give tick fever to humans, but tuberculosis cows will in time transmit tubercu- losis to people.
 "The financial loss from this dis ease can be as great or greater than any other disease with which cattle breeders have to contend, because it is a very silent worker and will get all through breeders herd before he realizes it.
 A stuberculosis-free accredited herd has very great advantage over those that are not, since you can make ship ments at any time without going to the expense of having every animal that is shipped given separate test before the shipment can be made. This is also an advantage to a buyer, as this extra expense for testing will not be added to the price of cattle bought"
 More Than Money Profit
 "There is such a pleasure ir know ing that your herd is free from tuber- culosis, besides the profit in actual money" says a letter from T. S. Humphries, of Durant, Miss. "As soon as my herd had been tested and reported clean without suspicious animal, I advertised the fact, and from the way my milk sales have con- tinued to increase the public must ap. preciate the importance of it."
 Another letter from w. K. & w. L Wood, Brookhaven, Miss, says:
 "It pays to have your cattle t'.osr culin tested. We have an advertise ment on our delivery wagon, 'Tnber culin tested herd,' and as result every physician who buys milk is oul patron and also recommends our mill to mothers for their infants. W. have made three shipments of dair! cows to Louisiana, where tuberculil test is necessary in order to ship cat tie into that State. On account of ou ability to show parties buying that WV have undertaken this opportunity ant can exhibit at once a record of th test. we sell at once at much bette
