BELOVED COUPLE
BIDS FAREWELL
AT WHITE TEMPLE
REV. Cos R. Wellman and his wife
Ether Turner Wellman spoke at
the White Temple yesterday morning.
It was a service in farewell to Rev.
Wellman who has resigned as assistant pastor of the White Temple to take up school work in the mission at Pueblo, Mexico, where his wife also will be associated with him.
It. Introducing Mrs. Wellman, Dr. Geissinger said that this was a happy day with him as Miss. Wellman had often said that she had been started on her career by one of his sermons and that he wanted to boast a little and that he thought he had a good deal to boost about in Mrs. Wellman.
He said also that it was a great thing for a church to send out two missionaries, like Paul and Barnabas, who were sent out from Antioch,
"Only these young people are not old bachelors."
Mrs. Wellman gave a very vivid picture of Mexican life, where her father and mother served for many years. She told about the greatness of the Mexican heart which unfortunately has often been misled. She spoke with great feeling, often in Spanish.
Dr. Geissinger introduced Rev. Wellman as a young man who had stepped right into the hearts of the people and had endeared himself to everyone. He called attention to the fact that he was a product of the local Methodist church and had been assistant superintendent at one time. Mr. Wellman said the past year had
O. E. S. Patrons Give Ball
Patrons of the Order of Eastern Star of the southland entertained the matrons and their trafflers with a dinner dance in hotel Virginia, Long Beach, Saturday night, the party included 150 or the merrymakers.
Entirely informal, the occasion was a most delightful one. The dinner was of excellent menu and the favors and decorations in patriotic color and motif presented a gay scene. Chispa chapter, Anaheim was not represented in person, as business detained the elegible guests. From Pullerton Mr. and Mrs. Emanuel Smith, Mr. and Mrs. Ed Double and Mr. and Mrs. T. D. Robertson attended. Representatives from San Francisco, Needles and other distant points also were there.
The dinner was served at 7 o'clock and dancing continued until midnight in the special dining room.
Twins Celebrate
Mr. and Mrs. Robert Culbertson have returned from Long Beach where they were present at a birthday party to observe the anniversaries of Mrs. Pauline Powell and Mr. Culbertson. The guest list included only nearest relatives. Two daughters of Mrs. Powell were expected, one from Utah, but illness prevented their attending.
Mr. and Mrs. M. Eugene Durfee joined the party and enjoyed the pleasures of the beach after the home celebration. The Analeimers returned home last evening.
Local Motor Parties Meet
Mr. and Mrs. J. Eymann, Leland
Dr. Gelssinger introduced Rev. Wellman as a young man who had stepped right into the hearts of the people and had endeared himself to everyone. He called attention to the fact that he was a product of the local Methodist church and had been assistant superintendent at one time. Mr. Wellman said the past year had been the happiest of his life and that he had learned much and would go to the field very much rejoiced to know that he would be followed by the prayers and good wishes of the people of the White Temple.
At the close of his address Dr. Gelssinger said that he would say something now that he had not mentioned even in his own home. "It is all well enough for us to applaud these young people on their way and to give them the chautauqua salute but I propose that we do something more substantial than that. God has laid it on my heart to ask you to form here 'A Coe and Esther Wellman Legion' to be made up of those who will contribute a dollar or more each year to help them in their work. Of course these young people are provided for by our Board of Foreign Missions. But there is always need for more funds than are available and let us send them gifts from time to time to be used as they see fit."
Dr. Gelssinger asked the congregation how they felt about the suggestion and everyone at one responded heartily in assent, standing to vote for it.
After the benediction Rev. and Mrs. Wellman went to the altar of the church and gave God-speed by all those present.
Last night Dr. Gelssinger said that he had asked the benevolence treasurer to open an account for "the Coe and Esther Wellman Legion Fund"; that any one could give any sum they desired to give as tree-will offering to go directly to these young people. The money may be given to the treasurer, Mr. George M. Todrick or to the pastor, Dr. Gelssinger announced that already one friend had given Coe a silver cornet, another had presented the young couple with a check for the finest camera money can buy and still another had agreed to furnish linen for the table, towels and sheets and pillow-allips.
Following is an excerpt from the talk made by Mrs. Wellman, who is wholeheartedly interested in the country of their labor:
"Mexico, next in neighborhood, let us make first in brotherhood". Neighborliness is a mutual affair. It takes two to be neighborly. And Mexico with whom we are united by destiny should be our friend forever.
Local Motor Parties Meet
Mr. and Mrs. J. Eymann, Leland and Florence returned Friday night from a two weeks motor journey through the northern portion of California. They visited relatives en route. Their itinerary included the drive along the Redwood highway, Crescent City, and on to Grand's Pass, Ore. A tour of Yosemite park also was a pleasureable feature of the trip.
They met Dr. and Mrs. M. M. Henderson at Redding, who are en route north. Dr. Henderson has closed his offices in the First National bank for a time and will go to British Columbia, stopping at important intermediate points.
Reunion of Class of '15
The class of '15 Anaheim Union high school will have their annual reunion at the home of Miss Steila Witmer, 418 N. West st., Friday July 13.
Three meetings are always looked forward to with considerable interest and give the members a chance for recalling school days.
The nations of the world have been far more interested in the resources of Mexico than in her soul. Mexico has nearly one-half of the oil supply of the world. "The oil fields are a fairyland," says Dr. Geo. B. Whiton. "Petroleum leaps out of the gorund so eagerly that once a well is open only the most powerful metal tubing and vast weights of cement can hold it back."
The silver mines at Guanajuato have sent away the metal by the shipboard for three hundred years.
Hunboldt said that there was enough sulphur in the crater of Propocatepepti to last the world three hundred years.
But how about Mexico's soul—does any one care? The money the United States spent in the expedition chasing Villa could have established a high school, a university, a library and a hospital in every Mexican town of 20,000 or more.
The survey conducted by W. E. Vanderbilt says "Mexico has become the dumping ground for America's obscene, non-censurable films." Revolution, lawlessness, crime disorder... are unconsciously encouraged by the pernicious traffic in polluted films."

"Mexico, next in neighborhood, let us make first in brotherhood." Neighborliness is a mutual affair. It takes two to be neighborly. And Mexico with whom we are united by destiny should be our friend forever.
For seventeen years have I lived among the Mexicanos. Nine in Old Mexico, and eight in a missionary among the Mexicans in California. I have found nothing but kindness, kindness everywhere. The Mexicans are the best neighbors I have ever known! This is a fact, and not something I read in a newspaper! (selfish).
Mexico City, the home of my childhood days, is the garden spot of the world. Like the mountains are round about Jerusalem so are they coiled as a coronet around the ancient valley of Tenochitlan (The Aztec name for Mexican City). When the sun looks his burning eye on the Aztec villager, the snow-clad volcanoes look like two dishes of ice cream in the green fields. At sunset there is a double reflection and streaks of orchid, rose, and gold sweep across the Mexican sky.
Mexico is interesting and touched with beauty and romance. It is a land of tranquility and leisurefulness.
But how about Mexico's soul—does any one care? The money the United States spent in the expedition chasing Villa could have established a high school, a university, a library and a hospital in every Mexican town of 20,000 or more.
The survey conducted by W. E. Vanderbilt says that "Mexico has become the dumping ground for America's obscene, non-consortable films... Revolution, lawlenemes, crime disorder... are unconsciously encouraged by the pernicious traffic in polluted films."
When I visited the President's castle at Chapultepec the gold curtains had been all cut up by American tourists seeking souvenirs. Yet such courtesy is shown to Americans that they tolerate and rather than be unneighborly.
Mr. Wellman thanked the church for their interest and kindness during the past year and also his mother and father whose sacrifice and generosity were the big factor in restoring Mrs. Wellman to health. To Dr. Geissinger, he said, he owed a great debt; for whereas most young graduates from a seminary are sent for their first year to the little town of Podunk to live on a Podunk salary and preach Podunk sermons he had the great privilege of serving with Dr. Geissinger; to sit at his feet during the week and learn about the latest books and also to be able to spend a year studying the style of a great preacher.

Religion Motive For Everyday Life
At the Methodist White Temple last evening Dr James Allen Geisinger spoke upon "Getting Rid of a Little Idea of Religion." His text was: I Cor. 3:21-23—"All things are yours; Paul, Cephas Appolos, the world life, death, things present and things to come; and ye are Christ's and Christ is God's." He said in part:
"Religion is not a matter of days, rites, ritual, ceremonies or any kind of practices. It is life under the eyes and in the strength of God, whose glory shines in the face of Jesus Christ. It is a motive for all life. It is an attitude of life."
"Religion is not to be thought of as renunciation, primarily that it does have that element in it. It is primarily an enthusiasm God over all; this is my Father's world; to love is to live, these statues make life larger and richer. Religion is more an entering in than a giving up.
It is after fashion that Paul thinks of Christianity. All things are for the Christian, his use and his discipline. When he says Paul and Coppas and Appolos are yours I think he means that we are to listen all good music; to look upon all great pictures; to read all greene books and to keep our minds open to all trultas; and all teachers of truth." "Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free." "The world is yours." Man is not for the world but the world for man; True, the world is for butterflies and bumble bees but more for man for man knows the world better and makes larger use of it. Life as for us. All its experiences are to develop us. And death is for us the apostle says, death, too. That seems a strange statement. It would seem more natural to say: "We are for death; for we must all die, but is death an enemy or is it a release? Christianity always thinks of it as a release as the re-birth of life. And so the present and future with whatever it may have belong to the Christian in a peculiar manner.No one else will or can get as much out of life and its daily experiences as the man who believes in God as his father, all men as his brothers and the Father's love.Sue faith
