But even so, he said, the board S
policy will be to wait and see
whether the expected returns ma
terialize before undertaking any
extensive building. A practical
test of the revised franchise tax
law might take two or three years,
he said. There might be cases of
such urgency as to warrant MAX

the intention of the board to in

 Bible readings include the follow. ing passages from I John 1: 16, IS: And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear; be- cause fear hath torment.

SOLDIER GUEST
 AT FORUM HERE
Stanley Obsorne to Speak at Second Congrega-
 tiOnal Sunday

Stanley Osborne, explorer, soldier and journalist, will present one of his most interesting adventure travelogues at the Forum of the Second Congregational church to- morrow evening at 7:30 D. m. His lecture entitled Africa Without Lions" will deal not with Darkest Africa" where lions are now hunted in motor cars, but Brightest Africa" which deals with the story of the lion-hearted Dutch and English pioneers in South Africa and RhodeSia.
 He will take his audience with him to Capetown, Durban with it's gorgeous sub-tropical flora, Pretoria with it's old Boer atmosphere, Joh- annesburg, the most important com- mercial city in Africa, Kimberley, the source of 90% of the worlds diamonds, Rhodesia, lonely Anglo Saxon outpost. Kruger National Park, Victoria Falls, the eighth wonder of the world, Lorenco Mar ques adn the story of Portugal's in- triguing East African capitol, Zam- besi river with it's crocodiles and hippopotami and life on the South African Veldt. He will discuss vari- ous economic and social aspects such as the color question, the Jews position in South Africa, the attitude of the old Boers to the British Em- pire, a South African Republic and the development of literature in Afrikaana.
 Time is forgottn during Stanley Osborne's travel talks. His pictorial material is outstandingly beautiful but he also has the skill in bringing to his audience a lucid presentation of the lives and aspirations of the nations with which he deals. He has a charming personality and his powerful voice can be heard in the largest auditorium. He will show two hundred exquisite color views.

is emphasized.
 In Pathos, the writer tells us, he was "in the Spirit on the Lords day." when he heard behind him great voice, as of trumpet. The voice commanded him to write to the seven churches all that he should see, and as he turned toward the voice, he saw seven golden can- dlesticks.
 One need not dwell upon other details of the image, and the writer became convinced that the Living Christ was speaking to him, and that the message came direct ly from God.
 First of all, in this message, is the appeal to cast aside all fear. The Living One has the keys of death and of the unseen world.
 The forces of evil may destroy the bodies of men, but they cannot destroy the soul. In the great struggle of good and evil, the good will triumph, for truth cannot be destroyed.
 
 In this world of the present day, new terror has laid hold of whole masses of people. AS @ time when we supposed the world has progress ed in enlightenment, and the tyran- Ilies and prosecutions of the past were at an end, new prosecutions have broken out.
 In various parts of the world to- day, men are suffering for their faith, and all freedom of thought and speech has been destroyed. Fear clutches at the hearts of men and women, and even in our own land we are not so sure that religi- ous liberty is beyond all peril.
 Can we find the faith that sus- tained men living in dark days? Perhaps the Book of Revelation can be read with 8 new meaning and 8 new value at time when the great struggle between right and wrong, truth and error, good and evil, and all the dangers involved is re-em- phasized.
 It is book to stir and sustain the souls of men and women in times of crisis.

 Question of Damage
 Mrs. Ryan's successful suit was brought to recover for extensive in- juries suffered in a fall from the third floor veranda at 35 Haase street, November g, 1895. The pro- perty, where Mrs. Ryan was a tenant, is owned by the Citizens & Manufactures National Bank. The court found in the suit that the fall was caused by the unsafe condition of the veranda. Mrs. Ryan fell when a portion of the railing broke, as she leaned against 1t to shake a rug The injured woman spent from the day of the fall until January 16 in the hospital but was forced to re- turn again on February for fur ther treatment. Judge O'Sullivan, in his judgment, stated that the ques- tion of damages in the case was far more disturbing than the question of liability, for no word picture could accurately portray the exten- sive injuries suffered by the plain tiff. When in court, Mrs. Ryan ap- peared walking with the aid of crutches.
 Mrs. Ryan was represented in her suit by Attorney A. Henry Weisman, Attorney Herman Weisman and the firm of Mascolo, Mcknight and Dauch,
