offices in the old building at Meridian
st. and the Circle were completely
vacated Sunday morning and the en-
tire receiving and transmitting sys-
TENS and the general offices are now
established in the two top floors of the

A cable from the top floor of the
Guaranty building to the top floor Of
the old building across the street
equipped with a little box on pulleys
served to carry messages received in
the old building Friday and Saturday
TO the new quarters.
The new operating room contains

engers between desks move about on
roller skates across q sOund-proof com
position floor. Other modern equip
ment includes rest rooms, pneumatic

The moving of the equipment to the
new building has taken four months.

CHRIST PICTURED
AS FOUNDATION
Of ETERNAL LIFE
Foundation of Christianity
Is Pastors Subject at
Brightwood Church.

Christ is the foundation Of Chris
tianity and Of the sinners acceptance
with God" the Rev. Charles H. Gun
solus declared Sunday night at the
Brightwood Congregational Church
in a sermon on The Foundation of
Christianity
Christ is the only hope of pardon
ing mercy and justifying grace the
Rev. Gunsolus said. He is the fOun-
dation Of hope and of eternal life.
We are begotten again to a lovely
hope by His resurrection from the
dead He died, rose again and ascend
ed into Heaven that we might obtain
eternal and everlasting life.
Jesus is the foundation of his
collective and universal church. The
church is Hkened to a temple and
to a city of which Jesus is the glori-
Gus basis. He Is the rock on which
his church is built and against which
the gates Of He'll shall never prevail.
TOO many men have built upon
mere doctrines and sentiments, upon
creeds and systems. Again too many
have built upon their own works,
- thin self-righteousness. Only
~ who have tried Jesus have found
Him a sufficient and abiding foun-
dalton.
"Other foundations can no man lay
but that which is laid. Christ has
proved all sufficient for all times,
places and occurrences. He has been
tried in prosperity, in adversely, in
life and in death. Christ is the strong
and perpetual foundation Of the ages, -
the Rev. Gunsolus said.

Task Proves Less Difficult
One Than Would Be
Generally imagined,

Not only did the Capitol Transfer
Company recently load, haul several
miles and unload a hugs rock weigh
ing $4,000 pounds. but did 1t easily.
This task is a fair indication Of the
great strides that have been made by
transfer companies since improve
ments and projections hava been made
in the great trucks and trailers.
The rock was moved from the farm
Of Raymond Hanch. six miles from
Indianapolis. to mark the site Of Nc
Cormick's cabin, o nthe bank, Of
WhIet River, Just off Washington St
The rock was moved at the order Of
the Indiana Historical Society last
month.
J. r. Skinner. owner and man
ager of the Capitol Transfer Com
pany. located at $50 z. Washington
St. explained theer was no hitch Of
any kind. and the work was really
accomplished In an incredibly short
time. The rock was loaded onto n
Detroit serni-trailer back of a huge
Mack truck by means of block and
tackle anchored to the rear axle OF
the truck.
Because Of the placement of the
wheels the weight Of the load was
evenly distributed over the trailer In
TACT. the weight was so distributed
that the springs showed little depres.
sion.
II took about two and one half hours
tn load the rock on the tri1ck and II
was brought to the city limits the
same afternoon, but could not be
moved over the city streets until aft
er the sun had set and the streets
had had a chance to cool.
The feat OF moving the rock was
an unusual one, but probably the
most unusual thing about the entire
Job was the utter ease with which
the Capitol Transfer Company han.
