NEW PREACHER AT
PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

Rev. Frederick A. Hacth preach
ed two excellent sermons at the 1
Presbyterian church last Sunday,
speaking on the reality of God in
the morning and on the home in the
evening. In the morning he said In
part:
rs God in Christ real to you?
The realest things in life are, the
persons and things with which we
have most to do. God wants to be
real to you. The ancient dieties
held themselves aloof from the peo-
pie but our God wants usclose
up to him. Make God real to you.
Nothing touches our lives today
that Jesus has not known about.
He is touched by the feeling of our
infirmitics, He was tempted in all
points like as we are.
Jesus said, Il am the way, the
truth and the life. Religion is not
70 be kept in some private com.
nartment of our lives or for special
occasions. God should be in all the
experiences of our lives"
| The snpremest of revelation of
divinity dwelt among us, but even
Ills own kin did not believe in him.
They misunderstood him. So he
was impelled to say. He that doeth
the will of my Father in Heaven.
the same is my mother and broth
er and sister"
| Only those who make full sur
render to him know the stnpend-
GUS reality of our peculiar relation
to him, In him may we find depths
not yet discovered. Many have lost
their hold on the Holy Spirit, that
sniritual things do not seem real to
them.
| How important it is to make Jes-
us real to our children The Chris
tian home is rarity since the Lord
is not made more real and attrac-
tive in the home to our children.
i He knows all our trials and woes.
He understands We should share
our lives with him ever as he would
share his life with us. We have
our dull, Unconditional days in the
valley but we may realize him even
there.
| The body was built to last cen
| turies-we have spoiled all that
we cannot spoil the vitality Of
i, the soul.
The worlds greatest need is that
which one the church can grow: the
| fruits of the spirit, epitomized in a
| life of love and faith.
By our doubling, we hurt the
heart OF God. Jesus should be SO
real to us that we can turn to him
with the affection and confidence OF
child turning to his mother.

SIS, 100000 IS SALVAGED IN
TREASURE HUNT
Recovery of Gold From Laurentc Biggest Diving Feat
in History Of British Navy.

other destroyer arrived to oct a.
sentinel.
For tive days, between June i
and June 5 of this year, the Racer
was left unprotected, one de-
stroyer with 622 bars Of gold on
board having started home be-
fore the other destroyer arrived.
All the gold taken during these
five days was left In buckets ct
the bottom of the ocean. When
this gold was drawn up the
Racers deck was literally paved
with gold, over which the crew
walked when they went to mess.
In the face Of constant danger
from all sides, as well as In the
depths of the ocean, the comman-
der and HIS crew never once lost
their enthusiasm.
No less courageous was Pro-
lessor Brooks, who, with his cleo
trical magic rod" OWNED the
whereabouts Of the sunlxen gold.
Between June and June 8, 1921,
the professor. a middle-aged man,
descended twice to the bottom
of Portsalon Bay and probed the
mud and sand to test the appara-
tlls which indicated the character
OF the metal with which it came
in contact. On one occasion this
studious middle.aged man stayed
under water more than q hour
a feat of danger even for an ex-
perienced diver-and when the
commander recalled him pleaded
for permission to go down again.
Commander Damant and his
loyal body of divers have ac-
complished the biggest salvage
feat in the history OF the British
navy. All the gold has been re-
covered, no lives have been lost
and only one minor accident oc-
Cured. A diver slipped and fell
while walking on an iron girder
in the wreckage and broke his
leg. ~

his amazing feat.
The Laurentic, carrying 2,S79
gold bars, worth $40, O0O, 900. and
$5.00O,OOO worth Of English coin,
was torpedoed off the Donegal
coast in 1917.
The following year Commander
Damant, in the Admiralty ship
Racer, set off on his salvage
expedition. The Racer is an old
wooden vessel on which cadets
underwent a course Of training,
and was brought into active serv.
i've during the war. Her defense
consisted OF a couple OF Maxim
quick-firing. guns and the small
/. arms of her crew, which num-
bered less than fifty all told.
In the earlier years OF the
salvage operations she was unpro-
tected, carrying her cargo Of gold
at intervals to Londonderry.
The only guard on the ship at
night was an armed Waterman,
who patrolled the deck. IF he
were taken unawares and q party
got aboard the paradox of a
pirate crew in rowboats selling

come a reality.
The danger increased daily.
Armed Irish irregulars gathered
on the rocks overlooking the bay,
sailors were threatened and no
one was allowed to go outside
Portsalon when on shore. When
the Racer went to Rathmullen,
eight miles up Tough Swilly, to
get fresh water, every man stood
to arms and the Maxim gun was
ready for action. Ultimately the
risk became SO great that the
Racer distilled her own water for
drinking purposes.
Then the Admiralty sent a tor

the Racer, and to this craft the

Coal Hole AS Tony
Got Off Lid

NEW YORK, Jan. 5.-When
Tony CURE, a contractor, felt
the sidewalk tremble beneath mis-
feet as he was supervising snow
removal near. the Bronx county
jail ne suspected that something
was wrong. He stepped to q
firmer footing on the curbstone,
only to see the coal-hole cover, on
which he had been standing,
heave upward and the figure Of
q man emerge.
The intruder failed to offer
suitable explanation, and CURE
dashed into the jail. Investiga-
ton revealed that the coal-hole
man was an escaping prisoner,
John Gumbert, alias Thomas
Murray" indicted for robbing a
poultry store.
Gumbert disappeared in tax
icab, which, apparently, had been
waiting for him at the curb.
