Give Correct Start
"Keep the source pure and the stream will be clear and limpid." Mrs. Caesar Misch retiring president of the Rhode Island Federation says in her annual report. She is speaking directly to mothers concerning bobbed-haired eyebrow-plucked rouge, cigarette smoking, petting-party daughters and their future. Time and fashion change, Mrs. Misch reminds, but morals are founded on solid rock and the Ten Commandments which have not been superceded. "Let the home life be kept pure, set the right example in the home, let Father and Mother realize—for instance—they cannot patronize a bootlegger and preach law-enforcement and still retain the respect of their children, and the younger generation's morals and manners will take care of themselves."

Ideals of Citizenship
It is hardly necessary to call the attention of the club women to the need for constant emphasis upon the ideals for citizenship we wish to implant in the minds of our children. Respect for constituted authority and obedience to it are essential to the preservation of our nation. The children in our schools today will soon be called upon to administer the present laws and to make new ones. We can greatly resist the schools in the effort to give preparation for this vital responsibility. It is only as the ideals taught in the schools are brought into practice in the home and community that they become real forces in the life of the child.—Mary Sherman.

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 9.-Official investigation of the water taxi cab explosion in Los Angeles harbor which killed one Pacific fleet bluejacket, injured 20 others and resulted in another sailor being listed as missing, was launched this afternoon on the U.S.S.West Virginia.
Statements of the company operating the taxi that there were only 45 men on the boat led navy officers to believe, they said, that 16 men reported as missing earlier today were ordinary absentees and had not met death in the boat blast.All of the 45 were accounted for,the officers declared.
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 9.-Checking by navy officers of men aboard the water taxi Lamoyne which exploded and sank in Los Angeles harbor yesterday had failed to reveal today that any of the 16 men reported missing this morning were on the craft.
That none of the missing blue-jackets was dead and all were absent without leave from Pacific fleet battleships was believed by the navy officers after the check was completed.

ENGLISH VETERAN GOES TO GALLOWS
HULL, Eng., Dec. 9.—William George Smith, world war hero and confessed killer, went to his death on the gallows today despite 1,000,000 protests. He was hanged for the murder of Elizabeth Bousfield, the married woman with whom he had been living.
The measured tolling of the bell at the city jail brot the news to the singing and praying crowds outside the prison gates that the death sentence had been carried out. Many who took part in the menacing death watch, which officials feared would break out in an attempt to stay the hanging, had been in front of the gates all night.
A force of mounted officers patrolled the streets where the crowds stood, muttering angrily in the pause between songs and prayers. A strong reserve of police was ready in case the resentment against Smith's execution should flare up into action.
The hangman had been smuggled into the jail yesterday despite the watching crowds.
But no attack marked the execution. An angry moan broke from the crowd when the bell tollled the message of Smith's death but it was too late then to intervene. Soon the outer fringes of the crowd began to disperse, then larger groups joined them, returning to their homes or to work.
The resentment against Smith's execution arose from the fact that a wife killer but a few days previously had been sentenced to but ten years penal servitude.

BURNING VESSEL RUN UPON BEACH
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 9.—The Mexican steamer Oxaca, reported afire off Manatian, has been beached 40 miles south of that point—and abandoned by its crew of 27 men, according to radio advoices flashed to the Federal Telegraph Co. here by the British ship Invincible today.
The Oxaca failed to answer signals from the British ship and all hands are believed to have deserted the burning ship, the Invincible reported.
The crew is believed to have been safely landed.
The Oxaca is a shop of 897 tons plying between here and Mexican ports. During the war it was known as a "mystery ship" which caused trouble for German submarines. It was one of the first small ships to carry camouflage and fire from concealed guns at every point of vantage.
The Mexican states line owns the craft. Captain M. Saenz is in charge.
No traces of lifeboats or signs of the crew from land were discovered by the Invincible, but that ship reported that as the burning vessel had been beached it was not likely the crew had perished.

A Lecture on CHRISTIAN SCIENCE Entitled Christian Science: The Liberator by Miss Lucia C. Coulson, C.S. of London, England
Member of the Board of Lectureship of the Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass.
The world is full of philosophies, theories, and religions, and it may well be asked what excuse Christian science has to offer in adding to the number.
The answer is that Christian Science differs in one respect from all of them. It promises much and guarantees the fulfillment of these promises now and here, but it also maintains that its every statement can be proved and must be proved by demonstration. This is the foundation on which Christian Science stands, this is the hope it holds out to the race, this is its contribution to the ages. It has shown religion to be scientific. Its appeal is not to those who are satisfied, but to those who feel they are in need of comfort, encouragement and healing. It has come in the language of Isaiah the Prophet "to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound."
What is it to be in prison? It is, according to the dictionary, to be confined, and confinement in its turn is described as being placed within limits. Most of us, then, are in bondage to some form of limitation. We are in a prison of sickness, maybe, or of fear, or of lack—lack of opportunity, lack of harmony, lack of happiness; and all prisoners generally speaking, have one thing in common, the longing to find a way out. Well, there is a way out, and I am here to present it to you.
Now, it is quite certain that every prison is mental. Sir Richard Lovelace, the Cavallier

The resentment against Smith's execution arose from the fact that a wife killer but a few days previously had been sentenced to but ten years penal servitude.
The mayoress presided over a recent meeting which brot pressure on the archbishop of York to intervene.
Smith's lawyer secured a petition with 85,000 signers, asking a reprieve. A meeting of 10,000 persons yesterday afternoon sought commutation of his sentence.
Secy. of Home Affairs Joyson Hicks refused to intervene.
Smith killed in seafousy, accusing his paramour of intimacy with a lodger in her home, a man of 82.
RAILWAY STRIKE MAY BE AVERTED
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 9.—Peaceful settlement of the long drawn out wage dispute between 6000 brotherhood engineers, firemen and other engine employees on one hand, and the management of the So. Pac., El Paso, and Southwestern and Arizona Eastern Rye. on the other, was in prospect today, following a last minute agreement of the management to meet representatives of the two brotherhoods involved and discuss ways nad means of ending the controversy after the 6000 locomotive employees on the three roads had just cast a strike vote overwhelmingly calling for a walkout if the demands of the men were not met.
The brotherhoods are the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen, represented in San Francisco by L. G. Griffing, grand chief engineer of the former organization, who conducted the walkout ballot.
Ninety-six percent of the engine employees on the three roads favored leaving the service of these roads, if this action were necessary to force the management to meet the brotherhood officials.
The management maintained that they would deal with the men only thru the United State Railroad Board, while the engineers and firemen insisted that the dispute was due to be settled directly between the railroads and the men without the assistance of any third party.

FLOODS FEARED IN EASTERN KY.
FLEMING, Ky., Dec. 9—Eastern Kentucky today faced prospects of one of the most disastrous floods in history as rain, which has been falling in torrents for 48 hours, continued unabated.
Creeks and streams, including the Kentucky river, already have overflowed their channels and entire communities are inundated.
Electric light and power lines in many districts have been made inoperative and many sections were in darkness during the night.
Mines have been forced to cease operations.
Damage, it is estimated, will run to hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Telephone communication with the affected district has been paralyzed and only meager details of the extent of the flood are available.
These report the town of Noon, Ledcher-co., inundated with residents moving out of their homes to higher lands.
The mining towns of Jenkins, McRoberts, Bardine and Dunham of the Consolidated Coal Co., and Fleming, Wayland, Wheelwright and Garrett, are without light or power.
Incorporation Is La Habra's Problem
The city of La Habra will have an opportunity Dec. 12 to vote again on incorporation, it was decided by supervisors today.
More than a score of business men, residents and ranchers appeared before the board. A few protests were heard.
The boundaries were fixed to include all that part of the city that has been built up to the west. On the east the Fullerton road would be the limit, while a large strip on each side of Central Ave. has been placed within the boundary.

In its turn is described as being placed within limits. Most of us, then, are in bondage to some form of limitation. We are in a prison of sickness, maybe, or of fear, or of lack—lack of opportunity, lack of harmony, lack of happiness; and all prisoners, generally speaking, have one thing in common, the longing to find a way out. Well, there is a way out, and I am here to present it to you.
Now, it is quite certain that every prison is mental. Sir Richard Lovelace, the Cavalier poet, saw this centuries ago when he wrote:—
"Stone walls do not a prison make.
Nor iron bars a cage;
Minds innocent and quiet take That for an hermitage."
John the Divine was confined on the Isle of Patmos, and it was solitary confinement at that, but few men have attained such a state of exaltation and dominion as he did when he received the vision of the Apocalypse and saw the new heaven and the new earth and reached the profound conviction that God would indeed dwell with men, and wipe all tears from their eyes. Paul and Silan were confined in the inner prison and their feet made fast in the stocks, but in that midnight hour of persecution they sang praises to God, and that joyful, triumphant state of thought was instantly externalized in outward freedom. For there is one thing that cannot be imprisoned, which no tyrant can confine, and that is man's thoughts. You may place him in the lowest dungeon, but you cannot chain him or confine his thinking. Only he himself can do that. And this brings us to the discovery that we imprison ourselves, for we alone have the control of our own thinking, to limit or enlarge it. If then the prison is mental, the way of escape must be mental also. It is plain that the only thing we have to change is our thought. And this is where Christian Science comes in. It comes with the most comforting message in all the world, for it tells us how to control our thinking, how to set free our thoughts and break down; — limitation that besets us.
The management maintained that they would deal with the men only thru the United State Hallroad Labor Board, while the engineers and firemen insisted that the dispute was one to be settled directly between the railroads and the men without the assistance of any third party.
The recent award of the Labor Board, granting a five per cent wage increase and certain changes in working conditions on the three roads affected in addition to several other lines in the west and southwest had no effect on the progress of the strike vote, the men insisting that the award did not meet their requirements.
In answer to what was virtually an ultimatum from the two brotherhoods, the So. Pac. late yeardied made public this statement:
"The representatives of the employees in engine service have asked for a joint conference and answer has been given that this is agreeable to the companies at an early and convenient date."—WILLIAM SPROUL, president."
