CLERKS WILL HELP
MAKE WISE CHOICE
in GIFTS DESIRED

Hundreds of clerks stand ready to
help the men shoppers in their selec-
tions for gifts for ladies, according to
information supplied the inquiring
reporter yesterday in Douglas stores.
Twice yesterday the reporter saw
woman clerk in the Phelps Dodge
store steer a husband to a good
sensible gift and not only that but
wrap the package and mail it in
each case.
These incidents started a chain of
thought. What if all the clerks
would announce such service. There
could also be made a study of
woman's needs by having man
warn the clerk to look out for his
wife and find what she wanted.
Now when one goes into a. store
he may just walk up, give the name
and the price he is able to pay and
the clerk will tell him what his wife
would most appreciate.

REPORT IMPOSTOR
TRIES TO COLLECT
AS ARMY WORKERS

Reports have reached Captain and
Mrs. Payne of the Salvation Army
that persons have appeared in some
sections of Douglas representing
themselves to be collectors for the
Salvation Arnly's Christmas fund.
The claims are false, according to
the Salvation Army workers, as they
say no one is authorized TO solicit
funds in Douglas for the army except
themselves and that they will not
make calls at houses except in the
uniform of the army workers.
They ask that any cases of persons
making such claims be reported to
the police, as they say they want
to protect the people of the city
against impostorS.
Captain and Mrs. Payne report they
have some worthy persons who need
an opportunity to work and they
would be glad if there are any who
may need help who would call the
army and give their names so the
people who need employment may
have a chance to earn some money
with which to buy their food.

WIXON, In SERMON,
GIVES HIS METHOD
OF READING BIBLE

Services have been in progress at
the Saints church, 10Th street. and
IC avenue, and the speaker last eve
ming was Elder G.. H. Wixon, of San
Bernardino, Calf The speaker
subject was "How to Read the Bible. "
In part he said:
zone reason for so many creeds and
faiths all taken from the Bible is
because many base their conclusions
on a few favorite texts and refuse
to take the Bible as whole. In
order to be fair with ourselves and
the Bible we must take into con-
sideration every text that has a
bearing on the subject under con-
sideration
1.-THE Bible was written by different
men who lived at different times and
under different circumstances, and
what they have given to US as the
result Of inspiration to them and
which has been recorded and pre-
served for our information, should
be carefully read and studied and
compared with every other scripture
that has something to offer on the
subject of salvation and Gods will
to this age and time"
The speaker called attention to a
mistaken idea held by many people,
that the old Jewish Sabbath was
set aside and consecrated for the
use of the people of this age. while
it is true" he said, "that God gave
the law which required the Jews to
observe the Holy Sabbath, it is also
true that this law was only given
to them and to no other nation or
people or age, for this law was first
introduced in the time of Noses the
prophet and the leader of the Isrea-
lite nation, being $500 years after

One BABY KICK

zone never can tell what kick
q baby of three years has in its toe
and after my experience I have no
ambition for further demonstration,
What / have already learned cost
me in excess of $50 and that is
sufficient for me {" Such was she
declaration of Walter Greene, an
automobile dealer travelling from
Dallas, Texas, with caravan of II
Chryslers automobiles who stopped for
a few hours in Douglas yesterday
to have some repairs made as the
result of The baby's kick. Here Is
how.
Green had consignment 81
Chryslers which he had to get
through to Los Angeles, operating an
agency in each city. In order 10
secure the needed drivers, ne TOOK
on men who wanted to travel TO the
coast, some of whom wanted to get
their families out with them and in
that group was a driver whose family
consisted of himself, his wife and q
three wear old child. All went as
merry as the proverbial wedding bell
until the party reached Rodeo where
they we're taking gas at filling
station and the cars were standing
in line. The one in which the
mother and baby were riding was
standing with the engine ldling and
the child on the mothers lap, but
restless. In its restless mood It

the time of Adam and Eve" The
speaker remarked that Deut. So, 3
states: "The Lord our God made a
covenant with us in Horeb. The
Lord made not this covenant with
our fathers, but with us, even us
who are all of us alive this day.
In order to prove that this covenant
made with Israel that day and which
was not made with their fathers OF
past generations, the speaker read
Deut. Alb, as follows: "And he de-
clared unto you his covenant which
he commands you to perform, even
ten commandments; and ile wrote
them upon two tables of stone" This
makes it plain as to what covenant
was referred to in Deut. So 3, said
the speaker.
"In Deut. 5:15, it gives the reason
why they were to observe the seventh
day Sabbath as follows: And re-
member that thou vast servant
in the land of Egypt, and that the
Lord thy God brought thee out
thence through mighty hand and
by a stretched out arm; therefore
the Lord thy God commanded thee
to keep the Sabbath day."
The speaker said the scriptures and
history show that the law was
changed and a better or higher law
was instituted by Christ which was
carried out by his apostles, and in
stead of keeping a day to commemo-
rate the day the Jews left Egypt
the apostles set apart the first day

to commemorate The resurrection day
when our Blessed Lord came forth
triumphant from the grave, accord
ing to Elder Wixon.
The subject for this evening will
be "The United States in Prophecy

100000 INDIANS
VISIT SHRINE OF
VIRGIN MONDAY

MEXICO CITY, Dec. 13 P)-More
than 100000 persons, mostly Indians,
many of whom had walked from
distant regions, congregated Monday at
the shrine of the Virgin of Gadalupe,
near Mexico City. They came to pay
devotionS to MeXico's patron saint on
the national holiday annually dedi-
Gated to her memory in celebration
of her traditional appearance almost
four centuries ago.
Because of the religious regulations
this was the second time in history
that Guadalupe Day was without
Catholic priests conducting their
offices at the shrine. The crowds,
however, were about the same as in
previous years. The streets leading
from Mexico City to the shrine were
guarded heavily by police, but the
pilgrims attempted no demonstrations,
and the day passed as TRANQUILITY as
in the times before the new religious
laws became effective.
For centuries it has been the life
ambition of almost every Indian
peasant to make at least one pill
grimage to Guadalupe, even though
/, it meant several weeks of weary
trudging over the mountains and
deserts from some distant village and
the expenditure of what to him was
small fortune, although the sum
might be only the equivalent Of a
few dollars.
Long before daylight today every
road reaching to the shrine was
dense for miles with masses
entire Indian families tramping
I through, the cold morning mist clad
in thin cotton garments, their should
ers wrapped in blankets, their bodies
bowed beneath the load of pots and
pans, foodstuffs and equipment for
cooking along the wayside.
Meanwhile thousands of Indians
had reached Guadalupe the night
before and slept all night in the
courtyard of the church OF the Shrine
Throughout the day a constant
stream of pilgrims marched through
the church and past the shrine
carrying lighted candles, kneeling and
praying and joining in chants. When
they left the church they gave them
selves up to enjoyment, riding on the
merry-go-roundS and Ferris wheels
| trying their skill III Clle SIloOCillS sdl
leries and indulging in a variety OIL
carnival anusements, which as is the
custom, were stationed all around the
church.
Representatives of some eight OF
ten different Indian tribes assembled
in the vacant fields nearby and spent
the day dancing to the beat of tom
toms-weird pagan dances inherited
from their ancestors before the days
of Cortez.

FINCH GETS EAGLE
AT LIGHT OVER SIX
FEET, TIP TO TIP

B. j. Finch, Of Light. thinks that
there is at least one thing that to
him is more majestic in appearance
than an eagle in it's flight. That
thing is the eagle in the drop to
earth after he has made bulls
eye with the eagle as a target.
Shooting an eagle, to Finch, is one
of the supreme delights in his use
of a gun and this week he had a
super-supreme delight for he killed
an exceptionally large eagle at the
town of Light. 1t was more than
six feet from tip to top and had
talons that would have been easily
large enough to have carried away
large sized prey in a lamb OF
something of that sort. Finch brought
the eagle to Douglas to show some
of his friends his good luck.

CALL MEETING

DENVER, Dec. 13 GA conference
to determine the attitude of the

Strengthening of several matters which

Arizona and California in an attempt
to bring about a settlement OF the

the rear, there was a general smash
ing as the cars slammed into the
car ahead, until someone got to the
wild one and stopped the engine.
But the damage had already been
done. In addition to doing a con
siderable harm to the car in which
the child was riding, there was
damage to the paint and other fea-
lures of two or three and the filling
station was partially wrecked, the
owner of it thrown down and his
hand gashed and other things hap
pened which added to the confusion.
When it had all been settled for,
Green was more than $50 in cash
out of pocket and his genial dis
position somewhat ruffled for the
rest of the day.
According to Green he left Dallas
with the consignment of Chryslers
Saturday morning and made the ap-
proximately 1000 miles to Douglas in
three and one half days. The trip
was made without mishap except the
childish happening at Rodeo and
without need for moments service
to the cars until they got here, and
that came, also, from the accident.
Here they had to get one spring
repaired and one break wheel lined,
the fender repair being left to the
end of the trip.
"It was gratifying luck to find 2
well equipped Chrysler agency here,
said Green, "as is saved us any actual
loss of time Your townsman and
Chrysler agent, Mr.. j. It. Hood, has
treated us like a brother and given
us the best attention and we will
carry away very pleasant memory
of the stop in Douglas, even if it
was aggravation that made the stop
a necessity"
