"THINGS TO COME"
SERMON SUBJECT
Dr. James Allen Gelssinger spoke at the White temple yesterday morning upon "Things to Come," his text being John 18:13.
Whether we study the cosmos or the history of humanity we can see indications of a controlling but invisible influence. Continuing our thought to the history of human kind we can see that the race has been led by the Spirit of God.
Sometimes there seems to be no moral meaning to the Old Testament. But when we stand back we can see that little by little those Israelites were led up from the brick fields of Egyptian slavery and out of the varying superstitutions and idolatries of the times into a supreme faith in a Holy God.
So we marvel at the pettiness of much of the gospel record, the inability of the disciples to grasp spiritual truth. The apostles quarrel as to which one shall have the chief seat and one of the mothers wants her boys to have the best places in the kingdom. It all seems petty and peril. But at last we see those ordinary men lifted to an extraordinary faith in Jesus Christ as the Savior of the world and going forth to proclaim a real gospel to a sinful world, the Spirit has wrought upon them.
It is a mistake to think that the inspiration and leadership of the Spirit ends with the closing of the sacred canon. Far otherwise. The Spirit, the Spirit of Holiness, lifted the men and women of the first three centuries of Christian history to a new order of goodness in spite of the lust of the world. Similarly, we see the signs and tokens of a superintending intelligence in the formations of the creeds and development of the Holy Roman Empire.
God used those creeds as he uses the husk to protect the seed when it is blown across a bleak
JOHN REED WIDOW SECRETLY MARRIED
NEW YORK, July 21.—Louise Bryant, magazine and newspaper reporter, was secretly married a year and a half ago to Wm. C. Bullitt, a member of the American Peace commission, friends of the couple admitted here today for the first time.
They have a baby five months old. They are living just outside of Paris.
Louise Bryant was the widow of the late John Reed, war correspondent and first agent to the United States from Soviet Russia.
Bullitt is a millionaire and a member of a family long prominent in Philadelphia.
HOPE FOR SUCCESS OF DAWES PLAN
LONDON, July 21.—Hope for the success of the allied conference on Dawes plan was increased today by the announcement that the conference committee on reparations and sanctions had concluded its work and reached an amicable agreement.
The main point of the agreement was the decision to give the proposed $200,000,000 loan to Germany priority over reparations. This represents adoption of the suggestion of Col. James A. Logan, American observer on the reparations account, has also completed its report, leaving only the committee restoration of Germany's financial and fiscal unity to report.
OIL MAGNATE SUED
CHICAGO, July 21.—George C. Priestly, 62, said to be the largest individual oil operator in the United States and national commiteeer for the republicans from Oklahoma in the Roosevelt campaign of 1904, was today named defendant in a mysterious $250,000 damage suit filed in superior court.
Priestly, who was married in 1885 and has five children, is treasurer of Warren-co Penn. The plaintiff is Miss Florence Powell.
inspiration and leadership of the Spirit ends with the closing of the sacred canon. Far otherwise. The Spirit, the Spirit of Holiness, lifted the men and women of the first three centuries of Christian history to a new order of goodness in spite of the lust of the world. Similarly, we see the signs and tokens of a superintending intelligence in the formations of the creeds and development of the Holy Roman Empire.
God used those creeds as he uses the husk to protect the seed when it is blown across a bleak and ice world and he made use of the church of that day to subdue the barbarian hordes from the forests of northern Europe and to lift a moral code above the heads of the pirate kings of that time.
Then later we see God breaking up the tyranny of the very ecclesiasticism He had used and bringing in the resign of conscience.
In our own time and with the Anglo Saxon race the development has been other. The Anglo Saxon is pre-eminent practical and varied humanitarianisms of today are as God-inspired as any other power in the world. What is going on in the world now is the bringing of every thought and purpose and ambition into captivity to Christ, that the dominion of the pierced hands may be complete.
What has taken place in the history of the race on a vast scale is to be seen also in the life of the individual. The great gift of Christianity is the gift of the Holy spirit, a spirit of teaching, of guidance, of holiness.
It is a mistake to think of the center of gravity of the Christian life as in the past. It is always in the future. There are always things to come. The Christian life is a walk with God and something new and different is always taking place in the life of discipleship. From the moment of the heart's earliest surrender to Jesus as Lord until the release of death increasingly all thought, all ambitions and all purposes should be brought into captivity to Christ.
The walk with God, or as we say in the creed, "the communion of the Holy Spirit" results in varying ways. As we go forward in this fellowship the mind should come to an increasing illumination. The Spirit leads us into truth and as we grow older in the Christian life our thoughts of God and destiny and duty should clear and mellow. Likewise, the gift of the Spirit results in a gift of utterance, just as the aspiries at Pentecost were able to speak with boldness. So, too, it is a gift of strength or power, power according to our needs and tasks.
Paul tells us that the Spirit blossoms out in the heart of man into love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, self-control loyalty and liberty and we can see

BUENA PARK
BUENA PARK, July 21.—The Ever Ready class of girls who have been enjoying the hospitality of the Warren cabin at Strawberry Flats, returned home Friday. J. E. Wright drove up very early in the morning, for he arrived at Strawberry Flats at 6 o'clock, and Fred Bastady went up the day before, so they and H. E. Warren brought the company home. They were: Ada Dee Shamlin, Luril Middleton, Alice Barry, Flarence Otto, Florence Warren, Esther Hartman, Mabel Robison, Lillian Bastady, Helen and Bertha Page and their teacher, Mrs. J. E. Wright, and Mr. and Mrs. H. E. Warren and daughter, Eleanor. The girls enjoyed hikes, horseback riding and bathing and report a wonderfully good time.
Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Schofield returned Friday evening from their cottage at Balboa Palisades to view the ruins from the fire. Mr. Schofield says he cannot estimate the amount of the loss, as there were so many things stored in the barn. There was some insurance but not enough to near cover the loss.
Miss Leah Root of Downey, Harold Lodge of El Monte, Mr. and Mrs. McQuire of Anaheim and Miss Irma Hill were Friday evening guests of Mr. and Mrs. E. W. Thurman. The evening was spent playing cards.
A Ku Klux meeting is announced for Monday night. The Rev. Leon Myers, pastor of the Christian church at Anaheim, is to speak.
Mr. and Mrs. H. G. Bixby and their guests, Mrs. Springer, and son, Johnny, of Salt Lake City motored to Orange County park Friday.
Mrs. and Mrs. J. F. Simpson are spending a week at their cottage at Tujunga.

The Chamber of Commerce had a well-attended meeting Friday night. The water rate was the subject under consideration. It was recomended that the super-
NO USE FOR SPOUSE WITH ONLY ONE LEG
ATLANTA, Ga., July 21—Charging that his wife had "no use for a one-legged man" and that, after he was forced to have his leg amputated, she abused him and compelled him to sleep on a small cot in the kitchen of her brother's home, Dr. Emanuel Zimarakis recently filed suit for divorce in Fulton Superior court here.
Zimarakis said he had his leg froken in the course of an arduous Canadian winter, and that he later had to have it amputated. He charged that while he suffered in silence while his wife abused him and said she had no use for a one-legged man. He said he gave her $4000 shortly after the operation and that even this failed to appease her, therefore, he wanted a divorce.
If we who prescribe for our friend and neighbors could realize how little we really know about the human body and its alliances, we'd advise our friends and neighbors to consult their physicians.
The Spirit leads us into truth and as we grow older in the Christian life our thoughts of God and destiny and duty should clear and mellow. Likewise, the gift of the Spirit results in a gift of utterance, just as the aspirates at Pentecost were able to speak with boldness. So, too, it is a gift of strength or power, power according to our needs and tasks.
Paul tells us that the Spirit blossoms out in the heart of man into love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, self-control loyalty and liberty and we can see this illustrated in the lives of those who really are surrendered to the will of God.
Life with God is for man a sanctifying and perfecting process. We have not yet come to its final development even tho we have been in the way, 20, 30 or 40 years. It takes but a season to grow a cabbage. It takes centuries to grow a sequoia and no one can say how long it takes to perfect a human will and bend it completely to divine purposes. But as we press on we should be encouraged the progress may be very slow. Ultimately we shall be changed, into his likeness, if we keep our hearts open to his grace.
The missionary tea, which was announced at the last missionary meeting to be at Mrs. D. W. Hasson's home, will be at the community hall. The change is made in order to accommodate a larger company. There will be a program and social time. Small cakes will be sold to those who wish to take them home and there will be refreshments for everyone.

ATTEMPT TO CUT GASOLINE PRICE
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., July 21.—A definite step in the war on gasoline prices was taken today when Atty. Gen. Jesse Barrett filed a petition with Chief Justice W. W. Graves of the supreme court en banc for the investigation of the business of the Standard Oil Co. of Indiana in this state.
The first hearing will be held at the offices of the attorney general Aug. 11. Barrett charged that the Standard Oil Co. of Indiana had conspired and combined with other oil companies to restrict the sale of gasoline and keep up the price in Missouri.
