Church Survey
Here Tomorrow

All is in readiness for the church
survey TO be made in Ell Centric to-
morrow by volunteer canvaSsers
from the various churches Of the
city under the direction OF the Ell
Centre Chamber of Commerce.
Mayor H. w. Fawcett asks that all
residents of the city cooperate in
giving the desired information in
order that the volunteer workers
may finish the canvass in one day.
Cards to be filled out merely ask
for name and address, number of
adults and children in family,
church membership in Ell Centric or
elsewhere, or church preference and
what Sunday school the children
attend. If a resident is not at
home the canvasser fills out card
and will call back at a convenient
time for an interview. No canvass
is being made Of the business sec
ton of the city, only residences be-
ing included in the survey. Upon
completion of the survey, the cards
will be sorted according to religious
denomination and delivered to the
pastors of the individual churches.
This will enable the ministers of the
city to get in touch with persons
belonging to the individual churches
or preferring certain churches and
will enable newcomers to the city to
get acquainted through church &C
tiyities.

AT FAULT THEMSELVES


AS might be expected, Bishop Cannon
n is quick to criticize and condemn ae-
ton of the radio commission in reyoking
the license of Rev. Robert p. Shuler to
operate a station at Los Angeles
The bishop joins the Los Angeles min
lister in declaring the commissions ac-
ton throttles free speech, forgetting, as
has Mr. Shuler. that the constitutional
right of free speech at no time has been
considered as authority for attacking
ones fellowmen, spreading untruths, or
distorting the truth so that it means
something entirely different from what
is intended.
Rev. Shuler by his abuse of the radio,
has kept things in turmoil in Los An
geles for several years past. The decis-
ion of the commission to revoke his IL
cense was made only after hearings had
been held, facts ascertained and every op-
portunity given the minister to defend
himself.
This is somewhat different from the
bishops action. He condemns with little
or no knowledge of the stations opera
ton nor the testimony heard at the hear
ingS, but is willing to go on hearsay, the
very course that got Mr.. Shuler in bad
with the commission.
Mr.. Shuler had, and possibly still has,
a splendid field for worthy work in full
filling the duties of Christian minister.
The same thing applies to Bishop Can
non. Both have sought the limelight by
entering actively into politics, condemn
ing all who disagree with them and do
ing everything possible to foster religious
enmity, keeping men apart from each
other instead of bringing, them together.
They are willing to trade their birth
rights for messes of pottage and then
wonder that they find themselves in
trouble Instead Of looking inward to
find the cause of the trouble, they blind
ly strike out and accuse the other fellow
of being the cause.
Their egotism prevents them from see
ing the harm they are doing to Christian
ity the cause for which they are conse-
Grated to labor Where the Master was
content to be meek and lowly, they seek
power, prestige and influence, and seem
to care not what means they use to OBJ
tain them, even to the sacrifice Of their
calling.

RIGHT HOUSE ON
WRONG lot ENDS
IN COURT ACTION

When r. w Hatton moved his
house in CaleXico he thought he
was putting it on his own lot.
But he put it on a lot adjoining
his, belonging to C. j. and Elsie
Gladys King.
Before he found out his mistake
Hatton built a foundation, con-
nected plumbing and electric wiz
ing and completely repaired and
improved the house.
When the house was ready for
occupancy Mr.. and Mrs. King told
Hatton of his mistake, and moved
into the house.
Hatton offered to move his house
onto his own lot, leaving the King
lot just as it was at first, but his
offer was refused.
At least, this Is what Hatton said
in a complaint for $4,000 damages
filed in Superior court yesterday
afternoon. Mr. and Mrs. King
knew, Hatton charged, all the time
he was improving the house that it
was on their lot, but did not say
anything.

United Press
WASHINGTON. Nov. II. The
sombre figure of Rep. Edgar
Howard hesitantly treads against
the halls Of congress, and Capitol
Hill itself once more.
Lone remnant of another epoch,
when free silver" was the rallying
cry and temperance had yet to
mother prohibition, Howard at 70
stands as a reminder 10 his
colleagues that other days bring
other problems and other leaders.
With black felt hat, black tie,
frock coat and iron gray hair fall
ing to his shoulders. this champion
Of free democracy looks uncom-
monty like his one time leader,
William Jennings Bryan. He was
Bryan's secretary for years. and
while the resemblance is not en-
tirely accidental, neither is it en-
tirely designed. Both were news
papermen, both fought hard for po-
litical principles.
Today Howard fights alone many
battles that would have received the
Bryan benediction. While he
seldom participates in debates,
when he does, it is with fine sense
of the dramatic and never-failing
touch of humor. Frequently by in
jecting a witticism into sharp sit
uation he has released taut nerves
and restored normal balance.
Even when he is not being DELHI
erately funny, his manner is so con-
sistently droll that he seems funny.
There was one notable occasion,
not on the floor, when he was in
vited to a jefferson day dinner at
which Senator Golf of West Viz
ginia, a Republican, was the prin-
cipal speaker. Howard declined,
drawing:
Golf wouldn't know jefferson
principle if he met it walking down
the middle of the road"
His simplicity is not all for public
consumption. Once he was per-
suaded against his will to attend a
White House reception. 1t took
considerable sandbagging to get him
to buy a dress suit and wear it, and
still more to entice him into taxi
cab. Returning from the White
House, he was hardly out of the cab
before he had ripped off the tight
collar and tie, and by the time he
had reached his doorstep he was
much nearer ready for bed.
Cuban Ambassador Orestes Fer
rara. who only since he became am
bassador transferred his allegiance
from Italy to Cuba, is the capitals
best swordSman about town. Soon
after vacations are over he rolls up
the rugs in his salon, spreads a
leather strip to protect the polished
floor, and engages one hapless dip
lomat or another with the blunted
foils. Almost invariably he wins,
and then the bout is happily termi-
mated with a cocktail.
