LOVE’S LABOR LOST;
GETTING EVEN WITH DEAD.
Church funeral services were denied a man in Chicago a day or two ago because he had not complied with the rules of the church and his body rests in a "mixed" cemetery because his church would not allow it to repose in the church cemetery. The man was a "backslider," a backslider being a person who takes hold and lets go.
Without commenting on the action of the Chicago church, we feel impelled to say that if all backsliders are denied church funerals when they die, there will be very few church funerals. Considering the many broad actions of Jesus Christ in the direction of charity, we now wonder what He would have done in the matter of the funeral of that Chicago man.
After all, it may be all right to deny backsliders church funerals. Disciples of Christ, as well as Christ himself, did their most effective work in the by-ways and on the highways, so when we have departed this life,
JAZZ METHODS
NOT BE USED
BY CHURCH
Presbyterians Will Use Conservative Ways to Build Up Membership
NO EMOTION APPEALS
WINONA LAKE, Ind., May 18.—The jazz method of getting church members is out of date.
Preaching of the old, old story by sensational and spectacular means, which became famous throughout the land during the heyday of Billy Sunday’s popularity, is no longer favored by the majority of America’s leading churchmen. New members of churches are now brought into the fold of Christian fellowship by quiet and conservative teachings.
Most representative ministers and laymen frown upon what they now call the ragtime circus method of conversion.
WOMAN POLICE
SAYS TOW
SO QU
JACKSON, Wyoming,
Williams, Jackson’s feminine city marshal sign, she confided Press today, because quiet that an office unnecessary. Miss elected to her office women municipal of a few days ago.
"I didn’t make any year I acted as my Williams. “The too decided there is no woman, so I’m going When asked how bad men with lady “cop” said she smiles with the grin 45.
“I killed three bad them myself,” she since then I've had Miss Williams is her former occupant squirt,” she said. Ness is too quiet. Had her fill of being sentitive, she declares Miss Williams's will be a woman, it if the law breaking up in Jackson there shall after Miss Wilcording to Mayores.
Considering the many broad actions of Jesus Christ in the direction of charity, we now wonder what He would have done in the matter of the funeral of that Chicago man.
After all, it may be all right to deny backsliders church funerals. Disciples of Christ, as well as Christ himself, did their most effective work in the by-ways and on the highways, so when we have departed this life, it probably makes no difference whether our funerals are held in a church or on the front steps of a tenement house, as was done in the instance of the Chicago man.
There will always be men and women who will violate church laws, the same as they violate the laws of the land. We cannot imagine the God of Love carrying punishment to the grave however.
Since the above was written, the telegraph wires bring news of the death early today of Franklin K. Lane, one of the members of President Wilson's cabinet, who expressed the wish to his family some time ago that no funeral services be held over his remains and that his body be cremated.
Franklin K. Lane was known to many Californians and those who knew him well believe that he was one of the best men California has ever developed. A man of strong moral leanings, he requested that no service be held over his remains and his request is being respected. His body will be cremated in Chicago tomorrow.
Lane, like thousands of men who think long and carefully of life and morality, undoubtedly believed that the funeral service will accomplish nothing in directing the travels of the stranger in Eternity.
It is not sacrillious to believe that if we do all the good we can when alive, what happens to our bodies after death doesn't matter.

Preaching of the old, old story by sensational and spectacular means, which became famous throughout the land during the heyday of Billy Sunday's popularity, is no longer favored by the majority of America's leading churchmen. New members of churches are now brought into the fold of Christian fellowship by quiet and conservative teachings.
Most representative ministers and laymen frown upon what they now call the ragtime circus method of conversion.
These points were brought out most emphatically as the opinion of delegates to the Presbyterian general assembly who met as the committee on evangelism here today.
This committee, in backing up the conservative methods, not only represented the rank and file of the 1,500,000 members of the Presbyterian church of America, but also the views of most other denominational governing bodies with whom it cooperates and exchanges views.
"Our 20,000 converts last year were gained through quiet boyhood methods," said Dr. George Mahy, head of the evangelical committee. "We learned that most churches found this way most satisfactory.
Rev. W. R. Graham, New York secretary of the committee, stated that those who follow a band to church usually leave when the band quits playing.
"We have dispensed with the sawdust trail and pled piper methods altogether," he said. "Persons who are converted in wholesale lots are not as apt to stick to their church membership as those who accept the faith after a quiet talk by some good brother or sister."
The Rev. Graham said new members are now obtained by personal work of church members among their neighbors.

A ROTARY CLUB;
ANAHEIM IN LINE.
A charter was extended to a group of Anaheim business men today who will operate as a Rotary Club. The membership of Rotary clubs extends to one man from each line of business and the slogan of Rotary is "He Serves Best Who Serves Most."
The Rotary clubs of the United States have done some very big things. They have improved living conditions in various cities and they have fathered to a great extent, the development of the Boy Scout movement. They have done wonderful things for the happiness, health and general welfare of children and they have worked hand in hand with city officials in the direction of civic development and morality.
The Anaheim Herald hopes the Anaheim Rotary Club will be a very active member of the organization. There is a big field here for the work of Rotary at this time. Many Rotary clubs have taken up the work of putting ex-service men back on their feet, a cause that has been neglected for many months.
The Anaheim Herald congratulates the members of the Anaheim Rotary Club and extends unstinted co-operation in any direction the members may at any time require.
There are some who hoped the orange show would be a lemon, but it has turned out to be a peach.
Imitation is the sincerest flattery, but somehow limitations always have their limitations.

WOMAN POLICEMAN SAYS TOWN QUIET; SO QUITS OFFICE
JACKSON, Wyo., May 18.—Pearl Williams, Jackson's pretty 22-year-old feminine city marshal, is going to resign, she confided to the United Press today, because the town is so quiet that an officer of the peace is unnecessary. Miss Williams was re-elected to her office as were the other women municipal officers of Jackson a few days ago.
"I didn't make an arrest during the year I acted as marshal," said Miss Williams. "The town's so quiet I've decided there is no need for a police woman, so I'm going to resign."
When asked how she tamed Wyoming bad men with smiles, the pretty lady "cop" said she backed up her smiles with the grim look of a Colt's 45.
"I killed three bad men and buried them myself," she said, jokingly, "and since then I've had no trouble."
Miss Williams is going to resume her former occupation as "soda squirt," she said. The marshal business is too quiet. Anyhow, she has had her fill of being the law's representative, she declared.
Miss Williams' successor probably will be a woman, it is indicated. But if the law breaking trade doesn't pick up in Jackson there won't be any Marshall after Miss Williams resigns, according to Mayoress Grace Miller.

With the attendance of the California Valencia Orange Show on the opening day far above expectations, the indications this afternoon pointed to a record crowd tonight when the Fashion Show will be in full swing and many special numbers on the program.
Directly following the Fashion Show a brilliant array of bathing girls will be seen in review.
The crowd last night was agreeably surprised to find all exhibits in place and everything in readiness for the event. This was one of the very few exceptions when an exhibition of this kind did not open with much work left undone. Those who intend delaying their visit to the show until later with the expectation of seeing more complete exhibits need delay no longer on that account as everything is now complete.
GERMAN - POLISH WAR LOOKED FOR BY OBSERVERS
OPPELN, Upper Silesia, May 18.—German-Polish war impended today in Silesia.
"Only the voluntary retirement of the Poles can prevent the Germans from attempting a big counter offensive," General Marinia, commander of the Italian plebiscite troops, declared. Marinis said he had heard the Germans had organized a self-defense league of 10,000 men at Kreuseberg and elsewhere in Silesia.
"It is a question how long they can be held back," he declared.
The Italian general said his forces were interested in maintaining peace.
"They have fought the Poles," he said, "but they have held the Germans back also. If the Poles do not withdraw now, though, you can expect a great storm with much blood and terrific destruction of property."
I advised the Germans to remain quiet when I was in temporary charge of the allied commission. Now it is a question now long they can be held back. The Germans are not well armed, but." the general smiled knowingly, "probably they can get arms in plenty. I'm following a straight line here, looking neither to right nor left. We were here to see that justice and right were done, when the Poles suddenly broke in on us. It was unwarranted."
The general stiffened when asked his opinion of the Franch course in Silesia.
"That is something I cannot talk about," he stated.
The fashion show scheduled for tonight and tomorrow night promises to be one of the biggest drawing cards of the show in the way of entertainment. The latest fashion creations in women's gowns and wearing apparel will be displayed by a number of real living models. This feature of the show has been arranged by the merchants of Anaheim.
Comments of the show heard on all sides yesterday afternoon and last night were to the effect that this show excels anything of the kind ever seen.
The decorations are claimed by visitors to be the most delicate and tasty ever used in a like event. The soft glow of the colored lights enhance their beauty at night. It is hard to conceive the beauty of the electrical effects without actually seeing them.
A gasp of astonishment escapes from each visitor as the panorama of the huge tent is first beheld. From that time on the whole visit is marked by exclamations of appreciation.
This morning it was very evident that Long Beach was attending this saw in large numbers today. On every side the remark was heard, "I am from Long Beach."
The avocado exhibit has been attracting more than ordinary attention. The mammoth pears seem to hold a fascination for the visitors which is beyond control and at all times day and night crowds are gathered in front of the exhibit.
The feature exhibits entered by the various companies present a most striking appearance showing the extent to which the artistic ability of mankind has progressed. The display of the "Blue Goose," entered by the American Fruit Growers is far in advance of anything ever attempted along that line. The Stewart Fruit Company display contains a complete orange packing equipment in
INDIAN MILLER TO COME TO BIG SHOW
