is located the traveller discovers to his
surprise that the structure is small,
though attractive. Should he decide to
test the truth of the sign he will find
that the place is crowded and he will
be lucky If he finds bed or table. A

A Sermon for Today
Doing Good.
BIZ REV. JOHN r. GUM.

Doing Good.
Text: ITO do good and communicate
forget not"-Hab., Xiii16.
To forget to do good would be to for
get what we are in the world for We
are not here Just to be entertained. We
are not here Just to eat and drink and
have a good time. We are not here
lust to be admired We are not here
Just to dress up and make ourselves or
namental. We are not here just for
what we can get out of life for our
selves The supreme object for which
we have been placed here is to do good.
God didn't make man for mere
breadbasket. He didn't make him for
meatgrinder. He didn't make him
for a clothesrack. He didn't make him
for peg to hang a hat on. He didn't
make woman for show window dunn
my to advertise the latest styles of
dress. He didn't make her for So
ciety butterfly to spend all her days
fitting about seeking pleasure. God
put men and women in the world for a
serious and worthwhile purpose.
Through His Son, Christ Jesus, God
has given us an example showing what
we are here for. OF Him it was said,
HE went about doing good" Here is
an ideal of life we all ought to follow.
ITO do good forget not" Keep this
thought of doing good constantly in
mind. Let 1t be your constant thought
everywhere you go and in everything
you do AS John Wesley put it.:
Do all the good you can.
BY all the means you can,
In all the ways you can,
In all the places you can,
At all the times you can.
To all the people you can,
AS long as ever you can.

Obeying the summons to set aside

 homage at the cradle of the New
 Year, Seward responded to a man New Years eve, and packed the Sew
 ard Athletic club hall from floor to
 balcony, there to participate in the
 annual mask ball given by the Sew ard Volunteer Fire Department.
 Out of the distant path fitted hap py spirits to romp beneath the mul- ti7colored lights in happy abandon. Sir Launcelot and Sir Galahad, Istode forth out of history to claim the coy glances of dainty wood nymth, who had crept from beneath the blos- soms to timidly steal a draught from the fountain of make-believe. From Dixie came Uncle Tom and Aunt Dinah, bespeaking cotton blossoms, and corn pone. Bold Sheik from the Sahara, beturbaned and sparkling with jewels, slipped from their tents, followed by favorites, yelled and fur tive, slyly glancing at the booted and sinister replica of Captain Kidd, fresh from ravaging the Spanish main.
 Groups of Pierriots and Pierres, throngs of grotesque characters who might have stepped from a picture book of spooks and hobgobblins, scampered up and down the floor, on ly to make way moment later for a fairy fresh from the heart of a rose
 Eskimos and Indians stolidly stood among bevies of beauties fresh from the Zeigfield Follies, unmoved by charms of 1.-the limbs and twinkling toes beating a stacatto on the polish ed floor.
 Iredescent gypsy queens, from Ro- mania, shared the moment with the proud beauty from old Castile, bring ing forth memories of Spanish castles dougs from the frozen trail," made and guitar drumming lovers. Sour way for gorgeous ostrich-a wonder fully original costume only to run smack into Simon Lagree as they lodged the lupercals of Erins Isle.

on the transcontinental air mail
route is located. We refilled at
Rawlins and made Evanston that
night.
At Evanston we were starting the
engine preparatory to taxing over
and tying down for the night, when
our carburetor caught fire. In the
haste to get started we had neither
put a fire screen on the intake nor
a drain pipe down from the bowl.
The engine was covered with Gil
and the gasoline overlooking from
the bowl carried the flames down
around it. Soon the entire nose of
the ship was ablaze and, although
we shove1ed earth over the motor
it appeared that the wings would
soon catch fire. If the fabric be.
gan to burn, the ship was gone.
/ had just finished removing all
loose equipment from the cockpit
when a small hand extinguisner
arrived, and with its aid the fire
was soon put out.
All of the ignition wire insulation
was burned off, but otherwise very
little damage had been done.
We were delayed "a hours /rewir-
ing the engine and cleaning out
the dirt shoveled on in the attempt
to put out the fire.
Over the Desert
After Rawlins we stopped at Salt
Lake City, and from there we flew
over the Great Salt Lake Desert to
Battle Mountain, Nevada, where we
spent the night.
We took off from Battle Mountain
