OVATION GIVEN
REV. BARROWS

An ovation was rendered the Rev.
Alfred e. Burrows last night when
he returned to his congregation at
Eastern Presbyterian Church after
. vacation and rest Of several
weeks. The occasion was the regu.
lar Thursday evening prayer meet.
ing service.
A. capacity crowd was In the
Sunday school room when DR.. Bar.
rows started the song service. Old
fashioned revival hymns were sung
by the congregation, the pastor
leading.
The: whole spirit Of the service
was opposed TO the story that had
gone abroad that the minister had
lost his hold on his congregation.
II had been recently published in
the local press that DR.. Barrows
had been suspended; that he was
about to be involved in a church
scandal and would be given q trial
before the Presbytery.
It develops that the pastor has
never been suspended, but was on
vacation and taking rest; that the
stories originated with a small
group In the congregation who
had been opposing him. In an
effort to maintain harmony in the
church, the minister recently
agreed to resign. BY an over
whelming vote, the congregation
moved against such a course.
More than two score men and
women last night offered UP
prayers for their pastor and thanks
for his leadership. Unwavering
faith in him was expressed on all
sides. but throughout the services,
no reference, by word or act, was
made to the recent unpleasantness.
An alteration which occurred
after the recent membership meet
ing at the church was q personal
matter between Albert D. Calvert,
= member, ana John M. Chisholm,
and was not the outgrowth of any
action taken at the meeting, it now
develops. After the meeting a

KANSAS "TINKERING" AGAIN

The so-called 'companionate marriage" of young
Miss Haldeman-Julius and Mr. Rosee (also young)
will doubtless be watched with interest by many
throughout the country.
With the consent appreciation of their parents
the young couple to try out the modern theory Of
marriage. Mrs. HaldenlanJ ulius- -Roselle will continue
her high school and plain Mr. Roselle will keep
on with studies at the University of Kansas.
1t is understood they will not live together but will
each other at frequent intervals at least until their
school days
Kansas has tried out many experiments, some of
which proved good and others which proved not
good. Therefore it is nothing for Kansas to be
"tinkering' with the marriage state.
Should the venture be the proponents of
''companonate marriage will hail it proof that
their theory is the solution of the marriage problem
If should turn out failure opponents of the theory
viii say, 81 told you So.
In either event nothing has been proved. The young
couple just two Individuals Where they may
ceed Johnny Jones and Mary Smith might prove
complete failure and where they may fail Johnny and
Mary might make bowling success OF it.
1t is novel venture doubt and
enough to wonder if the publicity given will
any increase in the sale of Papa Haldeman ulius'
we'll known books.

"CANNED HEAT"

81 take canned heat to cure bad cold, it is good
for it, he told the local police judge.
We would also recommend arsenic, carbolic acid,
cyanide, AS Colt bowie knife Any Of them will
stop cold as efficiently canned heat" and much
more rapidly The end is the same matter which
treatment is used
None of our recommendations is any deadly
than Canned heat 1t is nothing than alcohol in
the raw vile to the TASTE evil to the smell and wasting
away the physical structure surely any narcotic
It's use is quite prevalent among those who might be
classed as ''floaters-persons drifting from town
to another-or the vagrant class. 1t costs but little,
can be purchased without risk and one or two cans is
sufficient to produce beautiful Jag"
We have seen heap Of discarded cans right within
the city limits that would astonsh the average resi-
dent of El Centro.
Canned heat has its legitimate but it appears
to be more abused than used. We outlaw drugs and
Intoxicating liquor but permit something equally as
bad wherein we are rdiculously funny.

With Mr.. Ryan Popping off, the boys say,

the conduct of the district attorneys office in Los An

The disposition made of number of cases in the
states metropolis have been puzzng, to say the least
to the in the street No prosecutors life is bed
of roses and there always plenty to find fault
quite often where no fault exists.
However, the accusation that politics. has played
considerable hand in the operation of Mr. Keyes office
has been heard time and again in recent months. To
have made again by who certainly in position
to know whereof he speaks, is bound to attract
siderable attention and cause much comment
1t appears that there is plenty of need for the
handy probe to ascertain the truth or falsty of Mr.
Ryan's charges If only in justice the district at
torney somebody ought to do something about this.

BRAINS AND MINDS

The Russian Soviet government started the practice
of making mans body his monument, when they en-
baned Lenn and set him up in glass for poster
itv to gaze at That to civilized minds revolving
enough But the Soviet government proposes to
establish "brain pantheon in which the brains OF
celebrated Russians will be preserved and exhibited as
sacred relics"
Anyone who has the anatomical horrors, in the
form of waXWork models, exhibited in American dime
museums will have idea of the psychological ef-
feet the proposed pantheon" would have visitors
To normally sensitive persons, any such exhibition Is
a nightmare.
The Russians responsible for this project insist that
along with the value of embalmed brains sacred
relics" they will have scientific value. Beholders
NAV realize what fine thing it is to possess big,
symmetrical well convoluted BRAIN and may strive to
develop their own brains likewise. Scientists will have
the advantage of studying the brains OF men and WON
en- of unusual talent. "Only such scientific nvestga-
tion" says Prof BechtereV will enable US to deter
mine what genius really IS.
Maybe the material scientists could come to under
stand the genius of Tosto Chaapin or Shakes
peare or Bacon Mchaeangelo by studying his brain,
but most of may be pardoned for doubling whether
ANYBODY will ever eable TO do that
There remains curious confusion IN the MINDS OIL
MANY people including scientists, which seems to
identify brain and mind Unquestionably the brain,
during physical life, is the instrument of the mind.
And good mind needs, and probably has good in
strument to work with But in ordinary affairs we
never make the mistake Of taking the machine for the
creator. Does brain make mind or mind make the
brain?
