In Soochow, one of the famed literary cities of old China, the ancient and impressive ceremony was held in the ornate temple to Confucius shortly before 3 o'clock in the morning.

LIEB Everything Electrical 111 East Chartres St. SERMON ON TRAGIC HISTORY OF ISRAEL At the White Temple to a very large audience Sunday, Dr. James A. Geissinger spoke upon Hebrews 3:12: "Take heed, brethren, lost there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God". His subject was "Take Heed". Dr. Geissinger made it very clear that in this time of intellectual break-up spiritual drifting is an easy thing. He said millions in our day have been swept from their Christian moorings without any actual willing on their part. "They have been caught in our great modern drift." He said in part: "The apostle is here calling the attention of the Christians of his day to the fact that the Israelites, in spite of great leaders and mighty providences, had fallen away from the living God. The history of the Israelites is a great tragedy. Given the oracles of God and a high mission, called to witness to the light and to keep the spiritual ideas of mankind lifted high, they chose rather to go into the market place and down of the sea in ships, as the book of Jonah makes so clear, until today they are no longer the spiritual leaders of the human race as they were in the days of Moses and Isaiah. The Jew to day instead of being the prophet of the living God is the world's merchant, banker and pawnbroker. "The apostle fears that a like fate may overtake the Christians and he warns them "To Take Heed". The people to whom he writes have heard the gospel from the lips of apostles, those who had stood at Calvary and handled the word of life. They have had not only Moses and the prophets, by whom came the law, but Jesus Christ, by whom came grace and truth. They had repented and turned from their sins to faith in Christ, had been baptized and received the gift of the Holy Spirit, and had seen clearly the great vision of life given by Christ. Yet they were in grave danger of falling away. In fact many had already gone back into worldiness. I feel that we need to warn our hearts after the same manner. We have back of us a marvelous Christ." THREE FREE PORTS OPENED IN MEXICO LOS ANGELES, Dec. 18.—Three free ports are to be established in Mexico soon, according to advices received by Henry F. Grady, director of the foreign trade department of the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce. These ports will be designated at Coatzacoalcos (Puerto, Mexico) on the east coast, south of Vera Cruz, and at Salina Cruz and Guaymas, on the west coast. The Mexican government is preparing a pamphlet, both in Spanish and English, giving the regulations for use of these free ports. The Mexican government has purchased large quantities of wire fencing to be used as boundaries. As these ports have been operating as customs districts for many years, they are fully equipped for handling large numbers of vessels. Bolivia is experimenting with the cultivation of gutta-percha trees with a view to the eventual substitution of for rubber trees. lost their faith and have become backsliders. Secondly, we may lose out spiritually by drifting. We make no direct departure from Christ, but we are swept from our Christian moorings by some circumstances in our world. It may be some personal misfortune discourages us and makes us rebellious. Or it may be we have had ambitions greater than our abilities and our defeats leave us sullied. Or we may suffer some injustice at the ahuds of friends or society. Our manner of life may dull our spiritual sensitiveness and power of responding to God's Spirit. Often our associations make our religious life impossible. Thirdly, we may fall from faith because we do not will to believe. So many Christians expect to drift into heaven. They expect to slide into spiritual greatness. We gain any kind of knowledge only by hard effort. No attainment can be made without effort on our own part. The saints have always been careful about their prayer life. They have carried the Word in their hearts. They have sought to make the right conditions for their faith just as the orange JIGGS' PLEASES UNITED AUDIENCE "Jiggs Musical Comedy Revue and His Corned Beef and Cabbage chorus made their initial bow in Auaheim to a large audience at the United theatre last night and the enthuazarie reception accorded them certainly augers well for their future engagements here. The company is well balanced, and numbers among its ten members some very good voices, graceful dancers and good to look upon. The impression given by the entire company is one of excellent talent, well trained, and costumed without regard to expense. From the rise of the curtain to the lifting strains of "She was A Department Store Girl" the performance is snappy and pleasing and there is not a dull moment till the final curtain. The central figure, "Jiggs", who is seeking a "regular" job in order that he may escape the persecutions of "Maggie," gets a lot of laughs with his good natured comedy, always clean and refreshing. A number of popluar songs including "Gypsy Maid" "Somewhere" and "Tomorrow" are well sung, the latter by Mr. Fred Hunter, tenor, being especially well received, as was also "Maybe", sung by Miss Carrie Fappiano, who has a very pleasing soprano voice and a charming personality. What might be considered the hit of the show is the whirlwind dancing of Lamont and Fern mixed team who give a phenomenal exhibition of Russian dances. Jiggs Musical Comedy Review is scheduled to play a return date at the United next Sunday, December 24th. The United tonight, "My Old Kentucky Home" a drama of the old South with a series of melodramatic situations showing the famous horse race, the Kentucky derby. The program includes a Pathe Review and "Fun From the Press." ARMY OFFICER EXPLAINS SALUTE "The army salute is equivalent to the civilians greeting of 'good morn- They have had not only Moses and the prophets, by whom came the law, but Jesus Christ, by whom came grace and truth. They had repented and turned from their sins to faith in Christ, had been baptized and received the gift of the Holy Spirit, and had seen clearly the great vision of life given by Christ. Yet they were in grave danger of falling away. In fact many I would call to your attention. First, we may fall away by neglect. You can kill an orange tree by simply neglecting it. How much more quickly may the spiritual life of man die by neglect. We begin by neglecting our prayer life. Then we push aside the Word of God and give it no place in our lives. Then we neglect the appointed means of grace. Then later we cease to care for the fellowship of Christian people and at last we are fit for nothing spiritually but to be trodden under foot. Many men and women coming to California who have been devoted and consecrated workers in the church back east, start in out here running around to picnics in the mountains, to holidays at the beachs and to see all that can be seen only to wake up a little later on in life to the realization that they have our associations make our religious life impossible. Thirdly, we may fall from faith because we do not will to believe. So many Christians expect to drift into heaven. They expect to slide into spiritual greatness. We gain any kind of knowledge only by hard effort. No attainment can be made without effort on our own part. The saints have always been careful about their prayer life. They have carried the Word in their hearts. They have sought to make the right conditions for their faith just as the orange grower is careful to make the right conditions for his trees. It is not enough to take a neutral attitude and to keep an open mind. Faith is an achievement. We come to some comprehension of the great spiritual realities only by toll of spirit. How can we possibly grasp something of the meaning of the atonement Christ has made for human sin? Not by chuckling dice at the foot of the cross. Not by gossiping while the Son of God is dying. Not by approaching the cross flip-panily. Let us recall what the cross has meant in human life these last 1000 years, how it has comforted hearts and healed the hurt of millions. Let us prayerfully wait until something of its import breaks upon our minds and then let us go out to put a sacrificial life into the world's uplift and then we shall find something of its comfort and power. But not till then. Some people say: "If my faith can come to anything all right." Think of saying that to an orange tree! Faith must be nurtured and carefully striven for. Think of being capable of becoming like Christ and yet coming down to the end of our lives without any great conquering faith in God. Brethren "Take heed". The Gift He Desires Is Here!

That is the question asked by Judge McCardle, one of the most distinguished of the English judiciary—and a bachelor. "An engagement to marry is not like a bargain made in a counting house; it is not an ordinary contract. 'Is the man, then, to say to the girl: 'All my affection is gone, but I will marry you rather than have a breach of promise case?' 'Or is he to say: I believe the right and honest thing is not to marry and I will submit to any damages the jury thinks fit to give.' 'Marriage in the eyes of the churches is a life-long contract that nothing but death can dissolve. But the consequences of unhappy marriages are seen every day in the congested list of our divorce courts."

GOLD BRICK VALUED AT $18,000 FOUND WATSEKA, Ill.
