Nilled Nam Eatinr Tirer

An interesting letter was received
by Rev. D. N. Funk recently from a
classmate Of his, the Rev. Harmon F.
Miller, who is remembered by many
Of the Oakland people, he having
spent a week here last summer be-
fore going to his present work. He
is now a missionary serving in Kota-
pad, Way, India. The field is To-
Gated in the northern part of the Gum
tur Lutheran Missionary station. He
calls it the africa of India" Rev.
Miller relates some interesting events
occurring in the mission field, which
is in the jungles, one hundred miles
distant from a naIrow-gauge rail-
road. One of his thrilling days was
when he took part in a hunt in the
jungle. The prey was worthwhile.
The party followed, located and shot
an eight-hundred pound man eating
tigress. He says he does not fancy
the experience again. We have never
participated in a hunt for any kind
of game, but we agree with him. Our
best wishes are with the missionaries
whose sacrifices are so great and
whose service is benefitting the world
in the extension of Christ's kingdom.
Don't forget to pray for your mis-
sionary at home and abroad.

REPORTED SURVEY FOR
\ RAILROAD TO JENNINGS
w. NJ. r. r. Would Run Line to
Garrett Coal Development

\ corps of engineers of the West
ern Maryland Railway Company is
located at Meyersdale, Pa, and it is
reported will survey a branch line
from Meyersdale to Jennings, Garrett
county, and intermediate points, for
the purpose of tapping the rich coal
fields in Southern Somerset county,
Pa, and Northern Garrett county,
Maryland.
Several mines of more or less large
output are now in operation in the
vicinity of Jennings and more will be
opened provided adequate and salts
factory shipping facilities are secured
and maintained by the railway COM
pany.
The railroad built by the Jennings
Brothers interests when that compa-
ny operated the large timber tracts
in the community of Jennings and
which was purchased by local capital
of Grantsville and Jennings, still pen
etrates the Jennings field. After the
purchase of the road by the local peo-
pie its name was changed to the Ma
Tyland and Tidewater Railroad Com
pany, but it does not afford adequate
facilities for handling the production
and will be wholly inadequate to care
for the output such as is contem-
plated by the owners of coal lands
who are planning development on a
large scale.

BUCKING OVERLAND
ENULATES BRONCO
Novel Gasoline MUSTANG
Abuses BIG Crowd at
Western Horse Show. /.

A distinct surprise was sprung ct
the National Western Horst Show,
Denver. when the Charles n. Smith
Motors Company, Wiilyg-0veFland
Representatives introduced . buck
ing Overland This gasoline hrpncp
was made. by eccentric" wheels
placed three inches of center, which
caused the automobile to rare and
buck" like a playful, spotted mus
tang.
BY this wheel displacement. each
hub or. axle described g circle slx
inches In diameter, carrying the
wheel upward and downward, fast or
slow, as willed by the driver. 1t can
easily be realized that each swerve
or turn OF the car caused q. complete
change in the relative position Of
all wheels and naturally brought
about an exciting series of perplex-
ing lurches, jumps and bucks. The
wild and woolly cow puncher who
stuck to the leather during the whole
side.splitting performance was
Thomas A. Roche, sales manager Of
the Smith company.
Frequently ali four wheels would
for, a short time revolYe exactly in
unison, which action would throw
the car upward SO violently that on
several occasions the entire four
wheels OF the car were off the
ground at the same time. When the
two front wheels were running
evenly, but opposite to the position
of the hub in the rear wheels, the
effect was strenuous jolt and buck
that demanded real horsemanship to
hang on.
There was a tremendous strain on
the springs, which was estimated as
being equal to a continuous shower
of blows of 5000 pounds intensity on
each spring, and the diagonal
wrenching strain to the chassis when
all four wheels were running In diff
ferent positions was equal to the
combined wrenching weight OF six
cars. A standard Overland car was
used with nothing added or taken
away and there was placed on file
an affidavit by the service manager,
in whose charge the car was kept
during the show, that not one single
adjustment, repair, replacement, or
attention of any kind other than
gas, oil or water was needed.
This was a splendid tribute to the
stamina built into the Overland car.

PRAY FOR RUSSIANS,
! URGES GRAND DUKE.
Alexander Asks Moral Support Of
U. S. for Prosecuted People
- of His Country.
By the Associa ted Press.

By the Associa ted Press
PARIS. April 13.-Grand Duke
Alexander of Russia today issued
a statement in reply to inquiries from
America evoked by his message to
the American people on Tuesday
appealing for moral support for the
prosecuted Russian people. Tie mes
sages from America. received by
cable, inquired OF the grand duke
just how this moral support could be
given. He replies:
The moral support which I implore
YOU to send to the Russian people
must manifest itself by your spiritual
prayers and by your thoughts. Think
that you have a sick man, who is
dear to you and far from you, and
that with all the powers Of your souls
YOU wish his recovery.
mo trace of evil thinking against
the oppressors must find place in
your thoughts; that feeling would
veil your souls and the power of love
of your souls would not reach the
Russian souls which are akin to
yours. Have deep faith that in that
way your help will be efiicacious.
1t is especially to the women that
address myself; to the women who
during the world war showed such
pure Christian devotion: spiritually
give your delicate care to our souls
mortaily wounded by those who do
not know what they do. ] have not
the slightest doubt that your helm
VIII bear fruit. and will give us
strength to struggle for Him who
gave US life.
