SALVATION MOST SERIOUS QUESTION That the most momentous question with which the human mind can be employed is that asked by the jailer to Paul and Silas: "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?" (Acts 16:30), and yet that is a question which few people seriously consider, affirmed Miss Eleanor Houghan, assistant pastor of the Undenominational Church of the Lord (Holiness), 511 No. Olive at Sunday evening. She said that if the formal professor were asked this question he would simply quote Paul's answer to the jailer, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved," but if pressed farther and asked what is meant by believing on the Lord Jesus Christ would be at a loss to answer. The will believes on the Lord Jesus Christ, but he's not going to be saved. There are two kinds of faith, a theoretical faith which is of no value whatever to the soul, and a heart faith which believes unto righteousness (Rom. 10:10). James 2:15-20 says: "Thou believest there is one God; thou doest well; the devils also believe, and tremble. But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?" So then the faith that is unto the salvation of the soul is the faith that puts the teachings of Jesus Christ into action in one's own life, that leads the soul to measure to every demand of God, to keep every commandment, to repent, confess and forgive sin, to be justified, to dedicate one's life to God, to be wholly sanctified, cleansed from all carnality, and be filled with and led and guided by the Spirit of God. That is the faith that Paul speaks of which "believes unto righteousness," or to the point that God cleanses all sin from the heart. That is the faith that will stand the trials and tests of this life, and that of the great judgment morning in the life to come. NEW LAWN FOR CYPRESS SCHOOL During the holidays the lawn for the Cypress grammar school will be planted and the underground sprinkling system installed. Working together, the Parent Teacher ass'n and the board of directors have planned a "front yard" of neat appearance, and to obtain funds enough for financing it will give a dance at the school Friday evening, Dec. 26, for which good music and a good dance program is arranged. The committee on arrangements includes Mrs. D. E. Wetherby, Mrs. C. L. Barnett and Mrs. Dora Fols, who have looked about untrigly for the best method and plans of planting the school lawn. The board of trustees will donate $50 toward expenses, and with the proceeds from the dance it is hoped there will be no other call upon the public for expenses. How few there are Who stop and figure When moles or warts Start growing bigger. A Class Ad is best little salesman. That was the faith that the jailer who came fearing and trembling, ready to meet any demand that might be made of his soul, was able to grasp. That is the kind of faith we must have to profit our souls. If we truly believe on the Lord Jesus Christ we'll certainly see that our lives measure to His doctrines and teachings. The afternoon sermon was preached by Mrs. Elsie Richards from Matthew 13:45-46, on the point of great price, which, when the merchant found "he went and sold all that he had and bought it." Even so, she said, when we come to Christ we must cast ourselves, our ambitions, ideals and opinions, all that we have and all that we know, and all that we don't know, at His feet, to obtain this pearl of great price, eternal life. There’s No Mistake in Giving Good Cigars SANTA agrees and you will repeat that after all, the best present for a man is a fine box of Cigars. You can get them in various sizes and at a wide range of prices. Herb Sass 129 E. CENTER ST 250 W. CENTER ST.

DEAR SANTA: — We know you're awfully busy these days THREE PROBES IN HEAVY XMAS MAIL Postoffice receipts here this year are "running neck and neck" all the banner year 1923, according to Postmaster J. H. Whitner, who has been keeping several extra men busy in the office on the rural routes, looking for the Christmas business. Counting last year as a normal year no growth would be shown, the fact that the Anaheim office can maintain the extraordnance level of the biggest year in history of the South is another matter. Little or no congestion of mails been reported. AIL YOUTH FOR NO-FUND CHECK W. Kinne, 17, Fullerton, faces charge of passing a "no-fund" ticket on the Standard Bank of Silentton.

TMAS from GGLY world FAN-TOWN, U.S.A. DEAR SANTA: — We know you're awfully busy these days finding enough loud neckties for all the fathers in the world and "something for the house" for most of the women folks. But there are some of us fans who really would like to have you come down our chimney and leave something. We've been left everything but Christmas presents. We've been left out in the cold as far as saying champions that will defend their titles. We've been left outside while the baseball magnates have done a fancy job of closing up the world's series scandal. We've been left a lot of ham heavyweights who can't settle the argument as to who is the worst. Prohibition has left us some awful stuff to drink. But there are some things we'd really like. For instance: We'd like one baseball season without a bribe scandal. We'd like a heavyweight championship bout. We'd like a nice warm day for the opener next spring (and oh, how the magnates would like the same.) We'd like—but we don't want to be selfish. There are things we'll like to have you send other folks, too. Couldn't you send a book on "How to be a Master Mind," to John McGraw. Stanley Harris wrote a peach. Cozy Dolan likes to read. He read every line of that story Helnie Sand told the public about how Jimnie O'Connell offered Sands $500 to throw the game—and was egged on by Dolan. Dolan might like a book on "How to Improve Your Memory." Jack Dempsey doesn't need fighting toys, but he is running short of rouge and his lip stick is about worn out. Behny Leonard needs a new high hat and cape. One can't siting them about in a careless manner on every old stage in the country and expect them to last forever. Ban Johnson and Judge Landis are said to have buried the hatchet, but listen, Santa! They'll be at it again. Why not send them a pair of boxing gloves? Make them eight-ounce ones. THREE PROBES IN SOO LINE WRECK CHIPPEWA FALLS. Wis. Dec. 22.—The first of three investigations into the fatal Soo Line passenger train wrecked here neared completion today when a coroner's jury was empanelled to fix responsibility for the toll of eight dead and seven injured. Testimony which will be presented, it is said, will tend to show that the accident was caused by a defective switch bolt which splintered as the first cars of the heavy train passed over it, allowing the dining car to "split" the switch, leave the rails and plunge over the nearby embankment 50 feet into the Chippewa river. Preliminary examination of therails, it was said, indicated that the intense cold may have been responsible for the breaking of the bolt. The switch, officials of the road said, had been replaced only two days before. The casualties were definitely established, early today with the raising of the death car from the Chippewa river after two days of work in the biting cold. The dead: Miss May Morrissey, Stevens Point, Wis.; Barbara Spencer, six months old infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. M. Lyle Spencer, Seattle, Wash.; Mrs. Henry Jones, Sioux City, Ia.; Chas. M. Pardee, Minneapolis; Mrs. Florence Higgs, his daughter; Kenneth J. Henderson, Moose Jaw, Sask.; Richard W. Sharp, Vancouver, B.C.; and John L. Dunne, New York City. Among the most seriously injured is Prof. M. Lyle Spencer, dean of the School of Journalism, Univ. of Wash. He suffered body bruises, cuts, frozen hands and injury to his chest, the extent or which will not be known until x-ray pictures are taken. He is in St Joseph's hospital. He said that when he felt the trucks bumping on the ties, he told the porter to pull the emergency brakes which, if it had been done, would have stopped the train before the rear coach reached the trestle, and the accident been avoided. The porter, however, believes did not act quick enough and in a moment the awful crash came. "Everything seemed to be falling on me," Dean Spencer said."My infant daughter Barbara..." Jack Dempsey doesn't need fighting togs, but he is running short of rouge and his lip stick is about worn out. Behny Leonard needs a new high hat and cane. One can't sit them about in a careless manner on every old stage in the country and expect them to last forever. Ban Johnson and Judge Landis are said to have buried the hatchet, but listen, Santa! They'll be at it again. Why not send them a pair of boxing gloves. Make them eight-ounce ones. Ban's out of condition and heavy around the waist. The British golfers, Santa, probably could use some new clubs. But all joking aside, Santa, if you'll just send me another year of sport as good as the last year was I'll be tickled silly. Yours in Sport, A PAN. WIDOW RECEIVES MINIMUM AMOUNT WASHINGTON, Dec. 22—Mrs. Geertrude Gompers, widow of Uel Gompers, late president of American Federation of Labor, receive only the "minimum amount" provided by law. Gompers' estate, according to will of the veteran labor leader, made public here. Two wills were filed. The first dated Sept. 21, 1921, which left the bulk of the estate to the widow, had written across its face in Gompers' characteristic handwriting. "I cancel and revoke this will." The second will, dated Nov. 8, 1924, directed that, after the payment of debts, Gompers' granddaughter and his three sons, Samuel, Henry and Alexander, should receive the rest of the estate. HOLD SUSPECT IN CAR THEFT Arrested in a Ford touring car he is accused of stealing at San Bernardina, Leo Lewis, 29, was held in the county jail at Santa Ana today, pending the arrival of county officials who will prosecute the case. Lewis has been living in Santa Ana. So mark the day When grouches grow; When skys are gray And east winds blow. Plain Dealer Classified Ads produce results. Try this medium. WORLD TOURISTS VISIT ORANGE-CO Some 150 or 200 tourists of the Steamer Belgenland, on annual world cruise, were escorted about Orange-co Saturday in cars loaned by private citizens and given a buffet luncheon at Orange-co Park. The visitors appeared to enjoy themselves thorny. Anaheim furnished the guests with orange blossoms, which some of them hadn't seen before, and La Habra served orange punch. A visit to Orange-co. Harbor was a feature. There would have been a much larger party, only the crowd after leaving the boat divided into three groups, one of which went to San Francisco and the north and another to Monterey and viennity. At the park Rev. Walter L. Thornton of Fullerton gave an inspiring five-minute talk. The Anaheimers who furnished cars were H. H. Benjamin, W. J. Ellott, W. H. Schureman, Jake Schumacher, Vic LaMont, Miss Tillie Harkins, Fritz Yungblut, whose car was driven by Miss Nenno of the C. of C. staff, Mrs. H. T. Hathaway, J. P. Wilson and H. T. Hathaway, J. P. Wilson, R. N. Fay and Secretary Reid. KING ARRIVES TODAY SACRAMENTO, Dec. 22—John E. King, publisher of a newspaper at Hemet, who has been named by Gov. Richardson as state printer, is expected to arrive here today to prepare to assume charge of the state printer Jan. 1. King succeeds Frank J. Smith, who has been named warden of San Quentin prison.
