Baptist Church Notes.

Drifting is an unconscious process,
and frought with danger II is with
the current and not infrequently
against ones will. When will is ig-
nored the danger signals may well be
thrown out ahead OF US. 1t is the re-
suit OF lack OF effort to hold ones self
in the way or stem the tide, and such
experiences in ordinary life pre-sup-
poses defeat. We do not realize the
extent of our drifting until we look
back to the place where we were once
moored and safe. Drifting in the
night is most to be feared and is not
easily detected. There is a mighty
current today towards materialism.
worldliness, selfishness, and n dis
position TO attain success at any cost.
To drift with such current is to
make life's journey void of joy and
its end time to be dreaded. why
not stop drifting and fight your
way back to that safe mooring where
you once rested secure?

struction and the Colorado Parent
Teacher association, announces a

The purpose Of the contest is to
interest the pupils of the state in its
history and development, especially
in local history, through stimulating
an acquaintance with the important
part taken therein by their own rela-
tives, friends and neighbors who
were prominent in the history and de-
velopment Of the state in their own
locality Training in historical re-
search and investigation and the Sc
curing and preserving of authentic re-
cords Of our pioneers while they are
yet available are also objects of this
contest
The subject Of the contest is "The
Story Of q Colorado. Pioneer" The
first Driza is 500 in cash. the second
SIS, the third $50. and there are three
other prizes Of 225 each. The CON
testants must be regular students in
any public. parochial or private
high school in the state Cninth to
twelfth grades, inclusive) during the
year 1924 This includes those who
We're enrolled last year but who gradu-

side of the paper only, which must be
regular letter sheet size CSkx1D and

tunity to win a prize in such a pleas
ant and easy way. Even though a

benefit and pleasure to the writer
from the preparation of such an
essay. There are many pioneers
here who can tell interesting and fas.

which will make splendid subjects for
the cont st.
The state organization is hoping
that loca' patriotic organizations will
give prizas for the best essays from
Delta and vicinity but no arrange
ments have been made in this regard

FIRE AT PARK LAST NIGHT
Explosion of Gasoline Caused
Calling Out of Oakland
Fire Department

Last night about 1920 o'clock a
telephone call from Hamilton Hall,
Mountain Lake Park, took the Oak
land Fire Department to that house on
the jump, but before its arrival fire,
caused by the ignition of gasoline
fumes from lighted candle, had been
eXtinguished and little if any damage
resulted to the property.
The fire was confined to the floor
of an outbuilding at the Hall where
a gasoline operated water pump is
used to force water into tank when
the water system at the Park goes out
of commission, and this occurred yes
terday with the breaking of main.
Late last night an attempt was
made to start the gasoline engine
supplying power for this pump when
it was found to be out of order and
mechanic was called to adjust it. A
lighted candle was used for illuminat-
ing purposes and from this exposed
flame the gas fumes ignited. The
fire was smothered out with a num-
Der of water saturated bags which
were found in the building.

meeting of that body, but at that
time no intimation was given that the
