Sunday that when Christ was on
earth he did not possess the power
Of God This is certainly a teaching
of the first three gospels, Matthew,
Mark and Luke. Bishop Gore, a
most eminent voice in the Church Of
England, said that the virgin birth
was not part Of the teaching of the
early church.
Jesus was fearfully human. BY
and by under the influence Of Plato
in Greece and later under the infu-
ence Of Aristotle in Rome, the idea
of Jesus turned into a picture Of a
stern, unbendlng judge instead of a
loving shepherd. Then what hap
pened? Mankind humbly went to the
mother of Jesus to ask her son not
to be so stern and then came the
worship Of the birth.

the Bible.

COMMISSION is READY TO
START WORK ON GAS RATE

If the Federal Court in accordance
with the accommodation of WillitNn
p. Kappes, master in chancery. does
not fix a rate to be charged by the
Citizens Gas Company, the public
service commission will start at once
to make a valuation of the property
and to determine a fair rate. it was
learned at the commission offices to-
day.
Such a valuation, it was said, would
require about four months. Mean
while, the present rate of $1.20 a
thousand cubic feet would be con-
tinued or an agreement would be
reached making a rate lower than this
figure to apply until the valuation is
completed. The commission, IT was
learned, favors an agreement, but the
gas company is said to be opposed.
The commission probably would insist
under the agreement that the rate be
no higher than $1.10, it was said.
