Final Services of Splendid
Series at Christian
Church Tonight

Henderson citizens have had I'M
usual opportunity this week to hear
much wholesome teaching on Chris
tan living and service in the Congre-
gational-C Christian church in messages
brought by DR.. James r. Clinton, OF
Philadelphia, Pa, who is conducting
special services there during the week
DR.. CHntons themes, life Indeed
Private Interviews with Christ,
Scanning the Distances" have been
most timely and challenging in this
engaging but. difficult and dangerous
age.
Preaching last evening on "The
Aloofness of Jesus" DR.. Clinton said
in part:
Faith must be sifted and tested
before it can be trusted. The ques-
ton was not whether we trusted God
but whether God trusted us. Are we
the kind of people that God car rely
on in America today. How happy par
ents are when they can trust their
children out of their sight. How hap
by God is, when the faith oe His peo-
pie is of such quality as commands
His respect and confidence and honor.
Does God trust us, wherever we. live
and move and server"
Faith that depends on signs and
wonders and mighty deeds, excite
ment and emotion and sensation was
not the faith that God could honor
today Nor should our faith depend
on crowds and majorities. God wins
His greatest victories through the
generations, not by sweeping ma
jorities, but by praying, consecrat-
ed minorities. The mightiest issues in
history have emerged from few
noble souls who knew how to live
dangerously in the cause of Christ
and those for whom He Himself, in
loneliness supported and died. Neither
should faith make personal blessing
it's chief end and motive. He who
holds the worlds ultimate victory in
the hollow of his hand 'pleases not
HIMSELF
A rare treat is in store for Hen
derson people this evening at 7:4s
o'clock when DR.. Clinton presents in
dramatic recital a section of Ian

intersperesd with his beautiful inter
probation in song. You cannot afford
to miss the final opportunity of this

RAILWAY MANAGER REFUTES CLAIMS OF HIGH RATES
The Valdez Miner)

Challenging a statement that high freight rates prevent shipment of kata3aska Valley products to Cordo- va, Co1. O. F. 0hlson, general mana ger of the Alaska Railroad, in a statement in the Anchorage Times said he had advised Mrs. W. B. Phinn proprietor of the Model Restaurant at Cerdova, that 1t would be cheaper to use valley products in her restsur- ant than import them from the States.
 While visiting in Anchorage re- gently, Mrs. Phinn stated that the vegetables cost her more than those shipped from the States, and her statement was disputed by the manager, who evidently forgets that Mrs. Phinn pays the freight, and should be the judge.
 Manager George Fawcett of the Gilson Mercantile Store in Valdez, slso made . like stater1 nt, saying that despite the excellent quality of N1szruska produc:3, 1t cost too much to got them here to try to sell them h competition with those in the States. Mir. Fawcett, also, should know his onions, or at least what they cost him.
 Mrs. Phinn, like MT. Fawcett, de- cIared there would be a good market for the produce if they could be ship ped cheap r than those received from the States.
 Both say that when freight rates are lowered so that produce can be shipped from the colony as cheapfy as from the States they were sure everyone would prefer them.
 The reply from Col. Ohlson pub Eshed in the Times pointed out that the freight rate from Palmer to Cordova is 10 cents less per hundred Founis than from Seattle to Cordova, on yotctoes, onions, turnips and ruta- bs~2s. Be said in part:
 There is in effect ct the present tine a rate of 65 cents per hundred pounds, any quantity, Palmer to Cor do-a, on the following products, without tops, shipped in sacks: po- tatoes, onions, turnips and rutsbagas, whereas the rate from Seattle to Cordova is 75 cents per 100 pounds.
 ''The freight rate of 65 cents, Pal uer to Cordova, also applies to beets, cGbbsges, carrots and parsnips, but the rates on thesa items Seattle to CordOva is on a measurement basis, $ cents per c=bie foot and compari- soa l. ffs twe ~c es s not entirely pass eIs "A sE '-r--az+z from Seattle r:i vary, dep-nd'rg on the kind of cartainar used. but I believe you will -sEd the Palmer to Cordova rate more fa->rable'
