&F.RMON TO T. P. A. MKMBKRS
Rev. Strihrn J. I'pler, chaplain of
"JPost hi. Traveler Protective associa
tion, ami pallor of the First Christian
ehurch, preiulieil Ihe annual sermon to
Iwmbers of the post on Kumluy morn
ing?, who tunlel the services in a
body. Ilcv. Kpler is an active member
f the po. t und his sermon was full
of interesting material for traveling
men. The lierul-l regret- that it is
impossible to print the sermon in full
but nome parts were as follows:
"The Reformer and Ilia Fate." Text:
Luke 4:18-10.
On special occasion such as this,
the, question is asked: "What will the
minister preach about?" Knowing the
nembcrs of Tost M n I do, and know
ing that they are just men who, like
ther folk, hunger and thirst after
righteousness, 1 shall preach a plain
irospel sermon. First let me Kay that
as chaplain of Post M, I enjoy the
fellowship of these men. They are
alway ready to help alonir in every
Cood work. I am very happy to ad
clres you this morning. As we re
joice at your presence, we are sad
dened to learn of the untimely death
f our brother, Frank Stewart, who
lost his life in the Crawford washout
on the Northwestern. May the dear
I-ord brinjr comfort and consolation to
his loved ones.
Our Lord was the jcreat reformer.
He was a traveling man. Quietly,
without show or pomp, he would enter
w city or a home and begin his teach
ing. He never made any open attack
xcept upon the religious leaders of
Vis people. The Scribe and the
I'harisees came in for a great portion
of his rebukes, lhey were blind lead
ers of the blind and deserved all that
he spoke against them. He never at
tacked the organized government of
his nay. His reforms were to be ac
complished by the simple teaching of
fundamentals. He r.ever asked his fol
lowers to draw the sword in his de
lense, but he expected them to win out
by kindness and upright living.
He visited his old home at Narareth,
Aa was his custom he went to the syn
agogue to attend worship. Being in-
.vited to participate in the service, he
read from the prophet Isaiah, "The
spirit of the Lord is upon me, because
He annointed me to preach the gospel
to the poor; He hath sent me to pro
claim release to the captives and re
covering of sight to the blind; to set
at liberty them that are bruised; to
rroclaim the acceptable year of the
,ord." When He finished rending, He
rat down and said: "Today hath this
scripture been fulnlld in your ears,
Under the exactions of the Roman
government, exorbitant taxes were de
mantled, the people subjugated were
held in bondage, their liberty was gone,
Under the preaching or Jesus, the re
former .the poor were not to be neg
lected . Humanity was to be free from
Intellectual, political and ecclesiastical
bondage. This promise was not alone
to Israel, but as the prophets Elijah
und Ilisha ministered to Gentiles so
nr rt pner or lul nrgouen rensa-
tionalism.)
"If all the people were like me.
(The churches would close up; there
would be no congregations, though I
know that I am under obligation to
see that tho church life here is main-
ained.)
'How righteous a place this town
would be."
(Indeed, if my own attitude towprd
moral ami religious matters were the
universal attitude about here, 1 should
move out, or the sheriti would close
up my place wunin six monins.
Let us not forget that the church is
the greatest safeguard of the social
ind political, as well as the moral and
elurioii i life of a town.
Yet, how few of the really great
men ol ine community oy meir ae
on show it? The churches of a
own give back to the town a hundred
fold move than it takes out of a com
munity.
Services as follows bumlay:
Sunday school, classes for all ages.
Morning preaching, topic, "What
Have You in Thy Hand?"
Evening sermon: "r orgivenness.

S. No. 1 and 2, which require large
potatoes.
The inspection 1ee has been increas
ed from f2.00 to $4.00 per carload, the
latter figure being the federal fee.
The increase was necessary because
the inspection fees for the past two
years did not provide sufficient funds
for supplies and for the supervision of
inspections.

July 28 and will be in effect for the

'How God Names Things" and "The
Creed That Needs no Revision," are
the subjects that will be discussed
from the pulpit next Lord's day. These
are inspirational and will also bring
you information. The tble of the
Lord is spread every Lord's day in
memory of Him who said, "As often as
yet eat this bread and drink this cup,
ye do proclaim the Lord's death until
He come." How often do you remem
ber Him?
The Bible school invites you to its
classes. Next quarter, the first of
July, the lessons change and we have
a series on the life of Paul.
The Christian Endeavor prayer
meetings at 7 o'clock in the evening
will help you. Regardless of your age
you can find a place to develop your
talents. This congregation voted to

nings of July and August. The mid
week meetings of the church are held
each Wednesday evening and are in
teresting. Come to the church with a message
and a welcome.

Who Said Automobile
Springs did not need care and crease? Here is a letter from
one of the largest spring manufacturers. It speaks for
itself:
HOW TO CAKK FOR SPRINGS
A Pa Auto Service,
Alliance, Nebraska. H,
Dear Sir: - - -
The best method that we know of and recommend is to
jack up car to a sufficient height to relieve the weight from the
springs t'.;cn remove the bolts front rebound clips. This will
enable you to open each individual leaf. Then apply a water
proof graphite grease or a lubricant of equal quality.
Another important feature that is neglected and causes
considerable trouble and breakage of springs is that the axle
clips are very seldom given any attention whatsoever. It is
well in going over a car to tighten up the axle clips as these clips
are under a constant stress, and in the course of one season
stress enough to permit one-half to one and one-half turns
of the nuts. If these are kept tight, spring breakage is a great
deal less as about SO per cent of spring breakage is caused
by loose clips.
It is also well to see that the bolts going through the eyes
of springs are properly lubricated in order to get Ihe maximum
resiliency out of the springs and to make the car ride easier.
We believe that if these simple instructions as to the care
of automobile springs are carried out that you will be giving
entire satisfaction to your customers from your Service
Department.
Yours Tery truly,

Even a weak spark will

Spark plugs not always to blame for

DIFFICULTY in getting a motor to start may be due to
"grounds" which short-circuit the electric current, some
times to dirty contacts or poor timing. But the real trouble is
very often in the mixture you are trying to light slow-burning
fuel. With good gasoline even a weak spark produces a powerful
explosion.
One way to avoid "engine trouble"
Be careful to buy gasoline with good
vaporizing qualities straight dis
tilled and carefully refined Red
Crown Gasoline. It will save you a
lot of time and annoyance
and work no need for re
peated priming, frequent
cleaning of spark plugs end
grinding the valves. Straight
distilled gasoline has a com
plete chain of boiling point
fractions which insure in
stant ignition and complete
combustion develops lots
of power and keeps down
carbon troubles.
