REV Ard OF SMILING
ADMIRERS BORES HIN

KANSAS CITY, July 31.-A coun-
try club car was about to start south
from a station near Petucoat lane.
A middle aged woman decided 10
board ii and the race was close.
Lady, you dropped your money, -
a passing truck driver shouted. las
sengers craned their necks and saw
the bill in the street as the car start
ed.
It's a ten" mumbled the most
recent passenger.
A boy crawled through a car win
dow, landed feet first, ran back, got
the bill and pursued the car.
The car gained speed. So did the
boy.
Passengers shouted and the mo-
torman slowed down" The boy
caught the car. He returned the
bill, blushed and sat down before
the thankful woman could express
her thanks.
The reward? Men passengers
smiled at him. older women beamed
on him and younger women smiled
and nodded approval.
Two blocks passed. The adulaton
was boresome. "Aw shucks." the
13-year-old hero said as he swung
off the back end Of the car 10
the privacy OF crowded streets in the
shopping center.

OFFICERS HAVE AS YET
BEEN UNABLE TO GET
CLUE TO MAIL ROBBERS

In connection with the mail car
robbery which occurred at Gallup
Monday morning, the officials have
as yet been unable ia pick up any
dernue clue as to the identity of
the robbers.
Postoffice Inspector Ralph Smith
was called out from Denver head
quarters and is now in Albuquer-
que working in connection with To-
cal officers on the case, According
to Mr.. Smith, there were between
eighty and eighty-five registered
pieces of mail taken, several of
which had been sent out from the
Albuquerque postoffice.
At the present time it Is impos-
sible to estimate the exact loss as
the registered articles will have
to be traced to office of origin and
then checked up. A list with the
numbers of all the stolen pieces has
been sent in to headquarters so that
checking work may begin at once.
The mail car was on Santa Fe
train No. 3. .
Entrance to the car was gained
by the use of a key while the clerks
were at breakfast at Gallup.

CLOVIS ARRANGING TO
MAP ITS HIGHWAYS FOR
GUIDANCE OF TOURISTS

Especial Correspondence to The JOurnal.)
Clovis, n. M, March 4.-The
chamber of commerce of this city
realizes the benefits of good roads.
d. w. Jones, secretary of the cham
Der of commerce, is doing some
real constructive work toward ac-
quainting the company generally
with the wonderful highways that
are mapped out through Clovis.
Notwithstanding some of the big
auto highways come through here
the roads have not been shown on
many maps that are given out to
tourists over the country. Only this
week Mr.. Jones furnished a prop
erly gotten up map for one of the
big tire companies that will get out
a map showing the different high
ways of the state and the south
west. Thousands of these maps will
be distributed and this will be a
great advertisement for Clovis. In
the future the automobile highway
is going to be as important as the
railroad and the time is at hand
when the fact that Clovis is on
main auto roads is going to be a
most valuable asset for the town
and the surrounding country.

You wouldn't think of applying
the word "jazz" to church sermon.
Yet, that bit of modern slang is
the word which most adequately
describes the new manner and
voice in which pulpit messages are
delivered. "Jazzed" music is
fundamentally simple, and easy to
understand. And that is also a
description of the modern sermon.
The old style minister, with his
informing, rhetoric and oratory too
often talked over the heads of his
congregation. He lulled them into
Christianity and sleep at the same
time. His sermons were apt to be
complex and obscure.
The modern minister presents
his message in clear, concise Eng
lish, and In q natural voice. He
talks directly to his congregation
and brings them to Christianity
thoroughly wide awake.
