MORE ON PHELPS
(Ccntinued from Page One)

(Ccntinued from Page One)
 'I hate the thought of leaving and having to sacrifice my business," Mr. Phelps stated last night, "but illness in my immediate family in San Francisco is so vital that word has been sent to me that I must come. ItI is the only thing in the world which really could have made me take this step, selling my business-and I have done well-and departing from my many friends. If I ever return to Seward again, which is doubtful, it will be only for a visit, for the family affairs in the States will keep me fully occupied. It is my intention to re- main here about month more, tho it is urgent that I leave sooner, but so many matters are yet to be attended to I doubt if it can be accomplished within that period. I put off selling the place as long as possible, but it had to come about"
 For fl years MT. Phelps followed the mining game as he says search ing for a gold mine" He finally quit in disgust, after spending those years prospecting all over the Prince Will liam country, Hope, Sunrise, the Val deg district and other places. Being in Valdez at the time the rumor ar rived that a railroad was going to be constructed out of Seward, he and a number of others, including T. W. Hawkins, and also Mrs. Schallerer, came over. That was in 1903, and ever since they, three of the original F pioneers, have been residents of the city.
 To hear MT. Phelps recall those earlier days is another story in it. self-a story which kindles the blood and strikes a flint to the strain of adventure in all Of the busy con- struction days and thousands of peo- pie mingling in the activity; of the growth of Seward since the first cab in was built, and of the many diff culties experienced by the city in forging it's way to it's present status. Then there was that period when in quest for gold, when narrowing es- capes from death on land and sea, particularly the time when for almost 50 hours he and his partner fought out a tempest in the sound in an open small skiff. MT. Phelps will take memories down to California with him and if he can be persuaded to retell just few of them great similarity may be noted in pioneering days in the Territory and of that great Southern State.

ting sickness and disease. II, was
founded in 1903, but it was not
until 1923 that any real organiza.
ton, other than local guilds. was
developed. In that year the work
of James Moore Hickson in Eng
land and America was creating
great interest in the subject of the
healing of bodily ills by spiritual
means. and it seemed wise to place
the Society of the Nazarene on a
Systematical basis.

A suit of camel's hair, with
a girdle of skin in place of the
usual elaborate girdle of the
day, sufficed him His food was
locusts and wild honey.
Completely fearless, he de-
nounced the court of HerOd as
rotten and corrupt. He told the
Pharisees of the impending pun
ishment of the nation for its
sins. If he eventually paid the
penalty Of his life for his temer-
ity, it could have been no more
than he expected. He invited
persecution by his harsh and un-
compromising words.
The prophet John was in
some ways more of an Old Tes-
lament figure than a New. In
deed, he has been called the last
of the prophets His message
was strikingly similar to that of
the great figures # the earlier
Jewish history, who denounced
the sins of the nation, warned
against a false emphasis on
ritual, and prophesied a Messiah
who would save the people from
their sins.
The young Jesus, at the be-
ginning of His ministry, was
attracted to the preachings of
John. The great prophet was
attracting crowds by his spec
tacular methods and his sensa-
tiOnal message. He had revived
the old rite of baptism, and was
baptising converts in the river
Jordan. To him came the Mas
ter, and was baptised by John.
The young prophet paid tribute
to the Christ by declaring that
he was unworthy to unlose the
shoe latches of the Savior.
John, though placing perhaps
too much emphasis on the pen
atty of sin and not enough on
the love of God, was one of the
greatest Of religious figures, and
the forerunner of the greatest of
all teachers of religion.

TOMORROW'S SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON
The Nam
Named john
By REV. EDWARD TABER

John, the New Testament
prophet that preached of the
need of repentance and prophe-
sled of the coming Messiah to
Israel, was one of the most ar
resting and commanding figures
in history.
His was no message Of COM
promise. An ascetic, a dweller
in the desert, he brought to the
age in which he lived q message
it sorely needed.
He was a strange character.
There have been few men that
have so despised worldly goods
and pleasures as did the man
known as John.
Many of the men who have
had great power in the age in
which they lived, have compro-
missed with the prejudices and
superstitions of the day. They
have eschewed offending those
in authority.
Honestly seeking the accom-
plishment Of worth while pur-
pose, many have yet feared to
tell the whole truth. They have
tempered their teachings for the
age. They have bowed at least
temporarily, to those in au-
thority, whether the powers were
right or wrong.
1t is extremely doubtful if
there is a more vivid example
of a completely independent man
than the one who heralded the
Christ on the banks of the Jor-
dan. There was in his make
up no desire for personal adj
vancement. Despising money,
he had no need to placate those
who controlled the purse strings.
He did not require even a bed.
The three necessities of life,
food, clothing and shelter, John
was able to provide for himself.
The warm climate in which he
lived did not make shelter a
great problem.
