zivota. Pokial' pulls cloveka
bije, zatial' je v nom zivot,
ked' pulls umlkne, vtedy i
zivot prestane. Modlitba je
takym pulsom duchovneho
zivota. Aka je modlitba, Ia
ky je i stav duse. kto sd ne
modli, komu duchovny pulls
nepracuje, ten nema du-
chovneho zivota. kto sa ne
chce modlit', ten nema ma
bozenstva, lebo nabozenstvo
je suhrn pomeru cloveka ku
Bohu a modlitba je tym maj
jasnejsim vyrazom toho po-
meru; v modlitbe clovek u
znava vyssiu bytnost' mad
sebou. Opravdova modlitba
ucini cloveku Boziu pritom-
most skutocnou.
Co je modlitba? Modlit-
ba je prostriedok, skrze kto-
ry sa clovek moze priblizit'
ku Bohu. L'udstvo bolo tax
klesle V hriechoch, re nebolo
mono prist' v pravy pomer
s Bohom, preto sa zjavil Syn
Bozi v tele. Gale to vsetko z
Boha, ktory mas smieril sam
so sebou skrze Jezisa Kri-
sta (nie skrze nejakeho clo-
yeka) a dal nam sluzbu smie
renia, lebo Bob bol v Kristu
mieriac so sebou svet, nepo-
citujuc i'm ich hriechov, a
polozil do mas slovo toho
smierenia." II. Kor. 5:18-19.
V panu Jezisi nam Bob zja-
vii to prave nabozenstvo, kto
reho zaciatkom, stredom
koncom je KRISTUS. A pro-
strednictvom Krista Bob W.
slysal a slysi nase pokorne
modlitby. Ked' citame Bib
liu, Bob ku nam hovori, ked
sa modlime, my hovorime k
Bohu. Preto modlitba je du-
sevny rozhovor 5 Bohorn.
90, at su slova mole pri-
JENNIE i premysl'ovania sr-
dca mojho pred tebou, Ho-
spodine." Zalm 1915.
Ale modlitba je al nieco
inc. Ona je nevyhnutel'na
povinnost' kazdeho verneho
krest'ana. Svaty Apostol vra-
vi, ze vzdy sa slusi modlit'
a neprestavat'. Slusi. To zna

Killers Look Like Softes

It reads almost like fiction, the
long career of Detective Sergeant
Frank Baur, retired. Some of the
captures he made seem almost i'm
possible.
When the sergeant was only .13
he wanted to join the Navy-So he
told the recruiting officer he was
18 and they took him in and sent
him to the old Sidewheeler Powha-
tan, where he served his hitch.
In 1890 he was appointed to the
force, serving 81 years until his
retirement in 1921. And what a
record he rolled up in that time.
There was the case, for instance,
of $1,000 worth of platinum being
stolen from the Bureau of Stand
ards. It was a difficult case. But
the young detective was equal to
it.
The science of fingerprinting
was just coming in, and Sergeant
Baur had made a study of it.
Through prints found at the scene
he arrested a prominent citizen
and recovered all the platinum.
The thief later committed suicide
rather than face trial.
Again, a railroad detective had
stolen a $4,000 jewelry shipment.

Ken Murray
Says:

Seems as though the Lind
bergh case has never meant
anything but hard luck to those
connected with it, and now it's
discovered that the New Jersey
legislature failed to appropriate
the $4,000 reward promised
those two boys for finding the
ransom bills Just one more
proof that crime doesn't pay.
Naturally, after all they did
to help the case, the boys
thought they would at least be
rewarded with the milk of hui
man kindness. But they for
got they were dealing with Jer.
Sey bulls.
Finding one of those $40 ran.
som bills required just as much
concentration as playing the
policy racket. Apparently, the
only difference is that the gam.
blers pay off on the correct
numbers.
After all, it's really too bad
the reward wasn't handled by
the Federal Government If
there's anything the "New Deal"
Congress excelS in, it's apprOpFE

BULL FOR SALE,
SEE HINS0N

Anybody like to purchase a first
class bull?
Officials of the Hinson Motor
Company want to know. The rea-
son, you see, is that the firm ordi-
narily deals in automobiles and
airplaneS, but is now temporarily
in the livestock business.
It all happened when Frederick
Schrom, farmer of Berwyn, Md,
wished to buy a Taylor Cub plane
in addition to a Fairchild LOB"
already used by him.
He approached the Hinson Mo
tor Company, local agents for the
Taylor Cub manufacturers. He
learned the airship would cost
ST, 470-and he was prepared to
pay only $1,375, or 500 less.
John Hinson. manager of the
motor establishment, asked if
Schrom had something of value
to give in place of the $500.
Schrom replied he had a bull-a
regular, out-and-out, believing,
earth-pounding masculine member
Of the bovine family.
A deal was made. Schrom OBJ
tanned his airplane. Hinson OBJ
tanned $1,370 and the bull. So
everything is roSy-except for the
fact that Hinson doesn't know
what to do with the bull.

HOTTER WAVE
IS DUE FROM
MIDWEST
Lightning Hits School
As Downpour Gives
Temporary Relief

More thundershowerS were ex-
pected today on the heels of the
terrific electrical storm which
ragged last night, throwing parts
of the District in darkness as
electrical power lines went out of
commission and causing consid-
cradle damage throughout the
city.
With a new heat wave expected
here from the drought-stricken
Middle West, the showers today
are expected to keep the heat
down, but will not reach the in
tensity of last nights storm.
The storm last night drove the
mercury down from high of "a
degrees into low of 10. A light
ming bolt struck the Langdon
School, Twentieth and Evarts
Streets Northeast, causing consid-
cradle damage. Another bolt
struck the Washington Monu.
ment, blowing out the airplane
warning lights.
Edward L. Potter, GOT Jefferson
st. N. W., had a narrow escape
during the height Of the storm
when he was struck and knocked
down by a lightning bolt.
Potter was in his home when
the bolt struck the radio, bounced
off and struck him in the back of
the head, then continued down
and set fire to a chair nearby. He
felt a numbling sensation in the
head when he was struck, but
otherwise escaped injury. Potter
said.
Causes Fires
A number of trees were blown
down by the high winds, while
several fires were reported started
by the bolts in nearby Maryland
and Virginia.
Elsewhere in the East, three
persons were killed as a result of
high winds and ripping showers,
while 20 were injured. The cas-
ualties were reported principally
from the tri-State area of Penn
sylvania, West Virginia and Ohio,
although storms of cyclonic fury
also ragged in Louisiana and
Florida.
Power Lines Down
Several communities in Eastern
States were deprived of electric
power when high tension lines
were blown down, but the old
adage about the ill wind" proved
true when the center of the
Eastern disturbances, moving West,
brought water to many parched
localities in drought-stricken Mis-
souri,, Kansas and Nebraska.
The home of Arthur Godfrey,
radio announcer who lives at Ty-
sons Corner, Va, was struck by
lightning at the height of the
local storm. The residence caught
fire, causing a loss of $4,000.
At Leesburg, Va, barn on the
farm of Sam Macarthur was de-
stroyed. The damage amounted
to about $4,000.
