Monday, September 26, 1921 PRES. YOUNG PERKS WILL FORM SOCIETY Presbyterian Notes There are several very important announcements which we hope all our people will keep in mind during this week. Next Friday evening all of the young people of the Presbyterian church are invited to meet at the church at quarter past seven promptly to go to the home of Miss Anita Hertzler for the evening. Automobiles will be provided to take those who wish to go. The purpose of this meeting will be to organize a young people's society to assist in the church activities. Remember the time, 7:16 Friday evening, Place of meeting, the church. Next Sunday, Rally Day will be observed in two particular ways: (1) There will be a combined Sunday School and church service beginning promptly at quarter past ten and closing at twelve. (2) During this service the regular promotions of pupils from one grade to another will take place. Several new teachers have been secured so we are enabled to form several new classes. We hope every member of both the church and Sunday school will be present, and be there early. Friday afternoon at four o'clock, Rev. Walker will instruct a communicant's class in the study at the church. Parents who have children in the Sunday school particularly are urged to take this matter up with their children and urge them to attend this class. Rev. Walker also invites any parents who are particularly interested and Sunday school teachers to be present also. Wednesday evening there are two important meetings: (1) The regular prayer and praise service at 7:30, at which the fourth study on "The Life That Wins" will be taken up. The particular that for the evening will be "The New Testament way of spelling obey." Please read carefully John 15:1-12 before that time. (2) Immediately after the prayer-meeting there will be a short but very important meeting of the session. It is desired that every member of the session be present. Beginning Tues., eve., Sept. 27th, Now enters the Columbia Six, "The Gem of the Highway," into our midst. J. E. Walters & Co. have taken the Orange-co agency for this excellent car and a complete line of the new models will be displayed for the first time tomorrow at the salesrooms of this firm. The Columbia is a car of abundant vitality and charm.

(2) Immediately after the prayer-meeting there will be a short but very important meeting of the session. It is desired that every member of the session be present. Beginning Tues, eve., Sept. 27th, and continuing thru Thursday and Friday, Presbytery will be in session at Pomona. Any one who may be able to attend, if only a part of the time, is urged to do so. Sunday Oct. 2, the regular communion service will be held and it is desiree that any who may be contemplating uniting with the church will kindly notify either Rev. Walker, or the Session, at an early date. The little Junior Sermons are becoming more interesting and profitable each Sunday. See that your child remains next Sunday. Rev. Walker used is 30:30 as the bases of his remarks yesterday. In the evening he spoke on "Your Life History in a Sentence." The interest, as well as the attendance is steadily growing at the evening service. Come and see Good music, too. At the morning service the quarrelate using two beautiful anthems—"Who Like the Wind Doth Creeze," and "The Paradise, Oh Paradise," both by Ambrose. At the morning service Rev. Walker chose the Beatitudes, or Matt. 5:1-16 for consideration. He said, in part: "We sometimes hear the question asked. Is the sermon on the mount practical?" Let us see what the second verse says: "And he opened his mouth and taught them." There is a popular idea and say that runs like this—away with theory and doctrine and give us something practical; away with the virgin birth, away with the atonement, away with repentance and the sacrificial death. Why talk about the resurrection? We want something practical! All that is necessary is to study the sermon on the mount; admire the beatitudes and keep the Golden Rule. Dear people, there are those who say they admire the beatitudes, and perhaps really do admire the teachings of Jesus, who NEVER practice them. There are several things that we ought to understand to begin with, and we may as well consider them now. (1) The sermon on the mount was neither the first nor the last of the sermons that Jesus preached. It was one of many. (2) Some think this sermon points to heights that cannot be attained. True, Jesus Christ builted heights for his children to attain, but don't forget for a minute that he also provided the means of approach. He is constantly not only providing the way to climb but helps us in the do our midst. J. E. Walters & Co have taken the Orange-co agency for this excellent car and a complete line of the new models will be displayed for the first time tomorrow at the salesrooms of this firm. The Columbia is a car of abundant vitality and charm. Orange-co motorists have been keenly interested in its excellence and it was due to the many inquiries that were being received from this territory that caused the distributors for the Columbia to seek a representative RAISE MICE WORTH THOUSAND DOLLARS W. E. ALLEN California Biological Feature Service Yesterday I was favored by an invitation from Dr. F. B. Sumner to accompany him and Professor Charles Zelden of the University of Illinois on a little trip to Dr. Sumner's principal mouse house where I saw several curious and interesting things, for which the thousand dollar mice were a fitting elixim. This mouse house is situated on the western slope of a ravine, where it is sheltered from too strong action of the ocean breezes. In it are four or five hundred California deer mice gathered from all parts of California and confined in cages set in regular order on numerous shelves like books in a library. Most of these mice have a color somewhat gragh or dead, but after we had shown that this was true we saw little of these types. One of the first of the exceptional kinds exhibited by Dr. Sumner was a pure albino, absolutely white, dazzling white, all over with beautiful eyes of bright liquid pink. He has a good many others like it all of which have passed their lives in the house, their ancestors having been wild deer mice of grayish color which had been captured and imprisoned there. Next we were shown a mouse of yellowish hue, with eyes of yylid ruby color glowing like little jewels in the sides of the head. There were also several others of its kind in the house, like the albinos had been derived from wild stock in the course of breeding experiments in captivity. Next we saw a waltzing mouse, the only one of its kind ever discovered amongst the thousands of deer mice handled by Dr. Sumner. So far as rarity goes it is certainly a valuable mouse but no valuation was placed upon it. It is evidently not for sale on any ordinary terms. Then we were shown an epileptic mouse which become violently excited when brought near the lighted window and which finally went into convulsions followed by complete exhaustion. This mouse has offspring afflicted the same way though its parentage of the disease. Finally came the grown deer mice without that I could see at a three feet. The only tures were their long simply helped to make worse. They were looking things that I painfully shamefully observe wish for a bird them from chilling. One is an abilno as pink eyes and the albino ears, ears which looked paired with the hairless can be determined the disease to account for dition. Shortly after by the usual ceant conti baby mouse, but when to produce; the mature not do it. Dr. Sumner has neverlar case of hairless meats that people acquire are things mig in them. When I ask take a thousand dollars said he would, although anxious to see if he is inheritable. Doubtthe first place that no sum and in the saif if they should be worn which he needs for mentions.

He came not as the preachers today, simply bearing a message in his name, but he spoke definitely—with authority. V. 2." And he opened his mouth and There are several things that we ought to understand to begin with, and we may as well consider them now. (1) The sermon on the mount was neither the first nor the last of the sermons that Jesus preached. It was one of many. (2) Some think this sermon points to heights that cannot be attained. True, Jesus Christ builted heights for his children to attain, but don't forget for a minute that he also provided the means of approach. He is constantly not only providing the way to climb but helps us in the doing as well. (3) We should decry the popular modern idea that would do away with theology and doctring. When we are asked what we know about God we usually state what we believe, in a very simple way, frequently. As soon as we do this we have expressed our creed. There is a credal statement formed by what we believe and know of God. And why should this not be in religion, and why should it be feared or deferred here if we continue to have its science, astronomy and geology. Nature has very systematic arrangements, and works very systematically. This is very practical in religion, too. It is asking the impossible of any logical mind to ask them to discard the wonderful Christ life, with its sacrificial death, atheism and resurrection. We those who so admire the sermon on the mount yet who would do away with theology, doctrine and creeds, let me say it here that we find the fundamental and systematic teachings which form the foundation of the theological creeds, many of them closely linked with other of Christ's sermons that they must be considered. Look at Matt. 6:9. "After this manner therefore pray ye," and read through the 14th verse. Here we have both the fundamentals of the doctrines of faith and sin; then there is the doctrine of divine providence. Toward the close we have a vision of the judgement and future verse 22, "Many will sky to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name, and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never know you, depart from me, ye that work iniquity." The end of it all is we should KNOW God and recognize him as father. This is a wonderful sermon but who was the preacher? This is by far the most important consideration. He spoke with authority. He came not as the preachers today, simply bearing a message in his name, but he spoke definitely—with authority. V. 2. "And he opened his mouth and taught them!" then over and over again we find, "For I say unto you." "But I say unto you." Christ spoke with authority. He teaches us how to pray. He does not argue, but simply affirms. His words should be binding on us; they are great, but he who preached was greater. The only gospel that can save from sin and save to the uttermost is the personal gospel; that of the crucified, glorified, personal Savior. The world is striving for the Spirit of God and bread from heaven. How many of us can lead others that this longing may be fulfilled. Many of us still have a lot to learn; have still a long way to come before we can be a real blessing to others. How much more is there to the teachings of Jesus Christ beside the sermon on the mount? Listen: "I and my father are one." "As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up." John 3:14. "For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them." Luke 9:56. "We must be born from above." Oh, don't be fooled by those who are trying to do away with Jesus. The school of Christ has much more theology than is contained only in the sermon on the mount; Theosophy and kindred isms will not suffice in the hour of need. We must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ. God help us have an open mind for Christ, and to close our ears to all false teachings. Compare Chaffee Grocery Price CO. SECURES COUNTY AGENCY COLUMBIA SIX, "GEM OF THE HIGHWAY" here. They realize the value of having a wide awake local representative and it was after careful investigation that the J. E. Walters Co. received the coveted agency. Owners are also assured of service and maintenance after the sale has been closed. The Columbia is offered in two models, the Challenger for those desiring a lighter car and the De Luxe of a larger capacity. One of this car's distinctive features is the thermostatic control of the radiator shutters assuring an even motor temperature. The Columbia Six has the substantial well-groomed appearance.

Finally came the climax, two full grown deer mice without a hair on them that I could see at a distance of about three feet. The only hair like structures were their long feelers which simply helped to make the lack of fur look worse. They were the nakedest looking things that I have ever seen, painfully, shamefully naked making an observer wish for a bit of fur to keep them from chilling, even on a hot day. One is an ablino as is shown by the pink eyes and the almost translucent ears, ears which look colossal as compared with the hairless body. So far as can be determined there is no sign of disease to account for the hairless condition. Shortly after birth the pair had the usual beast coat of hair of the baby mouse, but when it came time to produce the mature coat they could not do it. Dr. Sumner has never heard of a similar case of hairless mice and he suggested that people who are anxious to acquire are things might be interested in them. When I asked him if he would take a thousand dollars for the pair he said he would, although I know he is anxious to see if the hairless condition is inheritable. Doubtless he thinks in the first place that no one would pay that sum and in the second place that if they should be would have money which he needs for further experiments. He is keeping thousands of records of pedigree mice in order to try to find some of the conditions which make offspring like parents, which cause certain characteristics to be inherited while others are not and which cause characteristics to appear in offspring although no ancestor was ever known to have them. The sudden appearance in the mouse population of such curious individuals as albinos, epileptics, and naked mice may help to call attention to some important influences which might otherwise be overlooked. On the other hand such appearances themselves require a lot of explaining. If we knew the whys and wherefores of their appearance and continuance we might get some clear ideas as to lines to follow in improving domestic animals or even the human stock. Certainly we can never hope to learn such things except by similar experiment. If these hairless mice should aid in the discovery of some fairly dependable law of heredity they would actually be worth much more to mankind then the mere money mentioned as a possible inducement to sell them.
