Mothers day recalls the hours we
spent as children lin the school of
mothers knee" There she taught us
TO pray, and opened up to us the
truths of religion by telling us the
stories of Gods word. In that school
of our childhood days. mother was the
celestial messenger who taught us by
precept and practice our religious
duty. The abiding influence of her
life viii continue to mold our char
acter. Her prayers and personal eff
forts have helped to shape our life
and direct our activities. just as the
words of an angel turned Philip away
from a city-wide evangelistic cam
paign to win one man.
We recall the interest we had in
mothers stories, when she told us of
Daniel Stephen and the heroic char
acters of the Bible. 1t must have been
such an interest that thrilled Luke,
who heard Philip tell Paul "a years
after the events of this lesson how the
persecution started by Saul had broad
ened the life of the early church.
Stephens martyrdom did not frighten
Philip, who had been a fellow deacon
with him in ministering to the needs
of the needy. 1t had served to chal-
lenge his faith. When the members
VI TIC IIlOlHeI CfuTCn were uIlNtI Out
of Jerusalem by the fires of persecu-
ton, they went everywhere preaching
the gospel. Philip, fired with a pas
sion for souls, had opened up an ag-
gressive campaign in Samaria. In
making a courageous application of
the principles of Stephen, the evan
gelist revealed his courage. He was
following the commands of Christ
Jesus, who had preached a series of
sermons to the Samaritans, and who
made them the link between the peo-
pie of Judea and the uttermost parts
of the earth, when He ordered that the
gospel should be preached TO every
creature.
Although Samaria. the ancient CAPT
tai, had recently been restored by
Herod the Great. Philips evangelistic
work was carried on in Schechem or
modern Nabulous. Here he demon
Strated his power to work miracles
and his effectiveness as preacher.
His success attracted the attention of
the apostles, who sent Peter and John
upon a tour of inspection. They WIS.,
tied Samaria, reviewed the work per-
formed among q hostile and alien peo-
pie and recognized their relation to
the brotherhood in Jerusalem by the
imposition of their hands and the gift
of the Holy Spirit. While the evan
gelist could lead people to Christ and
baptiZe them, he could not confer the
Holy Ghost, who directed Philip in
his ministry.

ME- GER PLANS
Van Sweringens Take Case
Before Commission for
Final Permit.
BU United Press

BIZ United Press
WASHINGTON, April 15.-An-
other round-perhaps a decisive one
in the railroad battle Of the
century is on here today.
The Interstate Commerce Com
mission started hearings on the ap-
plication of the Van Sweringen
brothers to complete their consoli-
dation Of five railroads, with a
trackage Of 5000 miles, into a single
system tapping the richest indus
trial section of the nation.
Orris P. and 'Mantis ]. Van
Swe1ngen Of Cleveland, Ohio, who
we're ordinary real estate men until
ten years ago., when they took a
flyer in railroads, are engineering
the gigantic merger of the new
Nickel Plate" system.
Value 81, 500, 900 900
Properties Of the roads involved
are said to be valued at 81 ,500, GOO, 900.
The old roads are the New York,
Chicago & st. Louis Railway (the old
Nickel Plate) and Chesapeake & Ohio,
the Erie, the Pore Marquette and the
Hooking Valley of Ohio. The new
company is called the New York,
Chicago & st. Louis Railroad Com
pany.
The boards Of directors and the
stockholders Of each Of the five old
companies in meetings in the last
six months have approved the
merger plan, under which the stock
holders in the old roads are to be
given stock in the ley company. The
Van Sweringens announced their
consolidation plan last August. 1t is
based on a clause of the Esch-Cum-
minis transportation act Of 1920,
which authorizes voluntary mer-
gers, IL they are approved by the in
terstate commission as be-
ing for the benefit of the public.
Greatest Merger
The proposed new railroad will be
one of the most important in the
country if the merger is effected,
ranking with the Pennsylvania and
New York Central in the East and
Middle West. Through the Chesa-
peake & Ohio holdings, 1t will have
as an outlet one Of the most impor-
tant coaling ports in the world, New
port News, Va. This huge harbor
Is connected by the Chesapeake &
Ohio directly with the tremendous
coal deposits of Virginia and West
Virginia.
The Hooking Valley route extends
practically all across Ohio. The Erie
In the East, the Pere Marquette in
the North, and the Nickel Plate
from st. Louis and Chicago to New
York will complete a system which
will tap one of the richest industrial
regions in the world, including the
States Of Michigan, Pennsylvania,
New York, New Jersey, Illinois, In
diana, Ohio, Virginia. West Virginia,
Missouri and Wisconsin and the
cities of st. Louis, Chicago, Detroit,
Cincinnati, Philadelphia, New York,
and Richmond, Va.

TOT LONG AGO, somebody made

owns the big industries" The observation
was more accurate than its maker supposed.
The Standard Oil Company Qndiana) belongs
to nearly II times as many stockholders in
1925 as IN 1919. There are at present 40, 277
owners of this Company, of whom not one
owns as much as so of the whole. Is, 264 of
these owners are employees of the Company.
1t is the earnest desire of the Management of
this organization that the number of stock
holders in the future will multiply in con-
siderably more than direct ratio to the growth
of the Company.
II is to the advantage of the public that own
ership of the Standard Oil Company Qndiana)
steadily becomes more deeply rooted and more
widely spread among the people as a whole.
It is to the advantage of society that Gus
toners, stockholders and employees should
cease to be three separate groups with distinct
interests in oil matters, and with frequently
divergent viewpoints.
At the present time, thousands of people
are at once patrons and employees of. and
investors in. this great Company. This joint
interest and ownership are giving a steadily
increasing firmness and dependability to the
service which this organization renders the
public.
Much of the efficiency of the Standard Oil
Company Qndiana) : much of it's smooth
functioning, its avoidance,of labor difficulties,
it's freedom to adopt progressive methods
are due to the fact that Main Street owns
the Company's oil: Main Street refnes and
distributes this oil, and Main Street uses
the oil products. This organization is essen
TALLY democratic. 1t is financed by the
people. operated by the people, and patron
lied by the people.
The Standard Oil Company Qndiana) in
ownership, management, labor and patronage,
is an integral part of modern American
civilization its products enter into the very
texture of our daily life. When, therefore,
we speak of the service of this organization
to the public, we are speaking of something
which is fundamental to society.
Especially does this apply to the ten Middle
Western States in which this Company
operates - and in which it has operated in
such a manner as to have gained the respect,
confidence and esteem of thirty million people.
