STILL BIGGER CROWD AT REVIVAL (Continued from Page One) Sunday morning there will be preaching at the tabernacle at 11 o'clock, 1:30 p.m. at Brea, and 2:30 p.m. at the tabernaile. The afternoon sermon at the tabernacle is for men only and boys 14 years old and up. The subject is, "The Trinity of Evil," or "Wine, Women and Gambling." At the same hour Mrs. Cornell is to speak at the First Christian Church to women only, and girls 14 years old and up. Sunday night regular services are to be held at the tabernaile, and Carter urged his hearers to come early in order to get a seat. Bulgin's text was from Isaiah 5:20; "Woe Unto Them That Put Evil for Good and Good for Evil, Darkness for Light, and Light for Darkness, Bitter for Sweet and Sweet For Bitter." He also quoted I John 5:16: "There is a Sin Unto Death; I Do Not Say He Shall Pray for It," and Genesis 6:3: "My Spirit Shall Not Always Strive With Man." And also Matthew 12:31-32: "All Manner of Sin and Blasphemy Shall Be Forgiven Into Men. But the Blasphemy Against the Holy Ghost Shall Not be Forgiven Into Men. And Whosoever Shall Spenk a Word Against the Son of Man, it Shall be Forgiven Him; but Whosoever Speaketh Against the Holy Ghost It shall Not be Forgiven Him Neither in this World, Neither in the World to come." He read from his Greek New Testament that this last meant that it should not be forgiven in this world, and therefore never should be forgiven. He said that nailed the devil's lie that there was any chance of forgiveness implied after death. He also read from Numbers 15th chapter that the soul that dooth ought presumptuously shall be cut off. The Jews were not permitted to shelter one drop of animal blood for a man that sinned presumptuously. He also read a portion of Hebrews 6th chapter. "For it is impossible for those who were once BULGIN REVIVAL Oh, the joy of sin forgiven Oh, the peace my soul doth know Oh, the heighth and depth of mercy Cause my heart to overflow. Just to see Him in the scriptures Bearing my sin on the cross See Him slighted, cursed, neglected, Couiting always, it but dross, For He knew that on the third day He would rise and show the world That the power of Heaven had conquered And the flag of truth unfurled. See Him send out the apostles Ordained by His own hand "Go ye unto all the nations Preach the truth in every land." So the call still comes from Heaven Pray that you may hear it, too, He has suffered, He has conquered. In Him you may conquer, too. He is calling to this city Through His servant, in the tent. Calling to the high and lowly Repent, repent, repent. Won't you look away to Jesus? He awaits your coming now, Just now make the good confession, Jesus Lord, to Thee I bow. If you do this He will cleanse you, Fill you with His love divine, So that you may sing the story, Praise the Lord, I know He's mine. Lead thou on, thou great deciple, E'en as Moses led before Out of Egypt's strife and bondage Through the sea to Canaan's shore. God's own men are back of Bulgin, With their prayers, with their songs, And we pray God speed the day When false. McGARRAH TALKS TO SOLICITORS In his address lat night to the who are to solicit new and creased subscriptions towards the erection of the proposed new Priestian church, Dr. McGarrard said in part: "Make no apologies for suggesting subscriptions for the Lord work. If any apologies are passed they should come from those who claim to be Christians yet refute to do their share, from those who whether they themselves attend not, benefit from the work of the churches yet refuse to pay part of the cost of the churches from which they, their families and their community benefit. "Do not say: 'We are begging for the church again,' or you will be guilty of blasphemy. God created the earth. The earth is here for me made it.' God is not beggar but the Supreme Banker of the universe. God's church is not papar but the business of the Proprietor of the world. If lands lords and bankers can ask their rights without being called beggars, you can tactfully but frankly ask people to subscribe for the church building as a debt to God. "I cannot afford to subscribe," a favorite excuse. Reply by asking if we are not affording a good many things that are petty and trifling as compared with the tremendous importance of erecting an adequate building to be dedicated to the worship of God to the religious education of the children and to other spiritual purposes. "I am in debt" is another excuse you will meet. Have we no some debts to God to Christ and to the church? Are we not in debted to those who built the churches in which we have worshipped and from which we have benefitted? Are we not under obligations to help erect a building in which the coming generation may have the same privileges? If some one says: "I never make obligations ahead," say to him... last meant that it should not be forgiven in this world, and therefore never should be forgiven. He said that nailed the devil's lie that there was any chance of forgiveness implied after death. He also read from Numbers 15th chapter that the soul that doeth ought presumptuously shall be cut off. The Jews were not permitted to shed one drop of animal blood for a man that sinned presumptuously. He also read a portion of Hebrews 6th chapter. "For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the world to come, if they shall fall away to renew them again to repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh and put him to an open shame." "The unparable sin is getting into such a condition that sweet is bitter and light is darkness and bitter is sweet and darkness is light," said the preacher. "John says 'There is a sin that is unto death,' and in Genesis will be found, 'My Spirit shall not always strive with man.'" "God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, these three in one are striving for your salvation. No man will ever get to hell who doesn't wade through the blood of Jesus." "You can say good-bye to the Holy Ghost and that you are not ready and love sin, but when you grieve the Holy Ghost you have grieved God's last agency to win you. You can tamper with an alarm clock until it will not awaken you. You can also do that with your conscience." "God is calling you tonight and it may be his last call to your soul; this may be your last revival, and when you drive away the Holy Spirit, you drive away God's last call forever." There is such a thing, he said, as sinning the sin unto death, and being just as much damned as if you were in hell already, and there are a lot of people right here in Anaheim who are committing that sin. The sin unto death is sinning against light and truth, and deliberately and wilfully doing things when you know better, and hardening your heart against the strivings of the Holy Ghost until He ceases to strive with you. You set up your rebellious will against His wooing, and insult and reject Him until He sees that further striving with you would be in vain, and He ceases. Then you'll be so blind that you'll turn right around and put evil for good and light for darkness for light and light for darkness, and bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. When you insult the Holy Ghost you break the last link between you and God, you drive away the last person of the Trinity that is seeking the Salvation of your soul, and there is no way for Fill you with His love divine. So that you may sing the story, Praise the Lord, I know He's mine. Lead thou on, thou great deciple, E'en as Moses led before Out of Egypt's strife and bondage Through the sea to Canaan's shore. God's own men are back of Bulgin. With their prayers, with their songs. And we pray God speed the day When false prophets will be gone. And in their stead there shall come forth The word of God with power To strengthen faith and satisfy Like sunshine after shower. —Myrtle A. Mudgett, 829 South Philadelphia-st, Anaheim, Calif. NOTES OF SPORT The National Collegiate Athletic Ass'n has 230 colleges under its jurisdiction. Last season, for the first time in five years, no American league club batted .300 as a team. Colorado has more than 560 lakes and more than 6000 miles of streams in which there is trout fishing. Plans are making in Denver to stage the annual Colorado State Bowling tournament during the last week of March. Denver's leading woman bowler is Mrs. Margaret Taylor, a telephone operator, who has an individual average of 173. Trinchera ranch, comprising 237,000 acres in Colorado, is said to be the largest private game park in the world. The first world's championship skating tournament for women was held at Dayos in 1905, and was won by Mrs. Seyers of the Figure Skating club, London. Coach Steve Harrick will take the wrestling squad of West Virginia university on a trip west at the end of February for a meet with Iowa State college. So popular in the game of hockey in London and its vicinity that many of the leading clubs are represented by teams in three or four different leagues. The Intercollegiate Lacrosse league plans an organized campaign with a view to making lacrosse one of the leading spring sports at American colleges. The National Amateur Skating Ass'n of the United States was formed in 1886 and was followed two years later by the organization of the Amateur Skating Ass'n of Canada. Louis ("Kid") Kaplan, the new world's featherweight champion, held the featherweight and junior light championships of New England. The church began on the trail of the world's title. If some one says: "I never make obligations ahead," say to him: "To take out life insurance, to borrow money, to rent a house, to purchase on installments, to join a lodge—all these involve financial obligations. The purchase of a home involves annual taxes. To own a car is to involve oneself for gasoline. To marry a wife is to assume a lifelong obligation for her support. Certainly a church building is important enough to merit similar willingness to assume definite obligations. "When I get out of debt, I will subscribe." A millionaire said recently: "I went in debt to buy a lot when I was earning only $12 per week, and I have been in debt ever since." Most men, like myself, go in debt to make money, and are more or less in debt all their lives." If debts are excuse for refusing to help build a church, one can keep always in debt and so make such an excuse forever. A common excuse is: "We are poor." Beyond doubt, some members of this congregation can honestly make this excuse. But even the poor widow can give her mite if she truly loves the church. The Lord Jesus will appreciate a dollar or two a month from some more than thousands of dollars from others—for liberality is measured by sacrifice. But even the poorest should invest a little. Then they will feel like partners in the church and will benefit more from the building when it is completed. But—some who give this excuse should be reminded that they are rich compared with their great grandfathers, that they spend liberally for other things, and that the average income of pagan peoples is only 15 or 20 cents a day. We do not know, in Christian hands, what poverty means. The gospel of Christ has made the poorest of us the envy of unchurched millions. "Financial conditions are bad" will be heard in some cases. Two things can be said. First, that the church should have built and they should have contributed when financial conditions were good, that we owe the Lord a lot of back pay for the good times of the past, and that, since we have so long postponed paying our share of a worthy Prebysterian church in Anaheim, we should do it now even if we take it out of our capital. The Bible tells us that Barnabas, when the church was in need of funds, sold a field and put it You set up your rebellious will against His wooings, and insult and reject Him until He sees that further striving with you would be in vain, and He ceases. Then you'll be so blind that you'll turn right around and put evil for good and good for evil and darkness for light and light for darkness, and bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. When you insult the Holy Ghost you break the last link between you and God, you drive away the last person of the Trinity that is seeking the Salvation of your soul, and there is no way for you to be saved. God will strive with you no more, for He sees that it would be of no use, and God would not be omnipresent to spend useless energy trying to win a man or woman for whom there was no hope of winning. He defined the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost, one form of the sin unto death, as "Beelizebub the Holy Ghost." You can Beelizebub the Father and He'll forgive you, you can Beelizebub the Son and He'll forgive you, but if you Beelizebub the Holy Ghost you have never forgivenness. He implied, while not saying so in so many words, that to Beelizebub the Holy Ghost is to attribute the works of the Holy Ghost to the devil, as did the Jews the works of Christ. He said, "God pity the Methodist church if it doesn't keep alive the doctrine of the Holy Ghost," that many in that church are fighting this doctrine. The Holy Ghost is the last person of the Godhead to give you a chance to accept salvation. You can snub God, the Holy Ghost, one time too many." He said that God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Ghost, do everything in their power to save you, and if you go to hell you have got to wade there knee deep thru the blood of Christ, and at the judgment you will see how faithfully God, the Holy Ghost, strove with your soul. He defined election this way: God has one vote, and He votes for your salvation; the devil has one vote, and he votes for your damnation; you have one vote, and whichever side you cast it on its the winning side. The evangelist told the story of a man who came to his meetings and heard one sermon on conscience. He would not come back again. He went to see him and asked him why. The man replied, "I have one of those things and I don't want it disturbed." Bulgin tried to persuade the man, but was told if he were a gentleman he would desist, and that the man was not ready to become a Christian, and couldn't stand any more talks on conscience. That very evening the boat in which the man was rowing on the millpond capsized, and he was caught under a stone and drowned. Bulgin was called on to preach the funeral. As he looked into that coffin, he said the words of the man came back to him, "I have one of those things, and I don't want it disturbed." "And it never was. There may be someone here tonight who are getting their last call. Oh, won't you come." Several hit the sawdust trail. The meeting was dismissed by Bulgin. "Financial conditions are bad" will be heard in some cases. Two things can be said. First, that the church should have built and they should have contributed when financial conditions were good, that we owe the Lord a lot of back pay for the good times of the past, and that, since we have so long postponed paying our share of a worthy Prebystetter church in Anaheim, we should do it now even if we take it out of our capital. The Bible tells us that Barnabas when the church was in need of funds, sold a field and put the price in the church treasury, probably thus paying up some back debts to the Lord. In the second place, financial conditions will soon improve. A prominent member said to this morning: "I have been in business for 25 years in Anaheim. I have noticed that when times are good or bad in the east, we have the same sort of times a year later." Last year, times were very bad among farmers, manufacturers and other classes in the east, so times nor bad here now. Since the election, times have improved mightily. Farm product prices in Iowa doubled in six months. Factories in many cases have doubled their output since the election. Everywhere, far-sighted leaders in country and city prophecy the best financial period since the war for the next four years. Those who feel that they "want so times are bad here now. Since to wait and see" must be reminded that they have over four years in which to pay, that California has never had four bad years in succession. A walnut growers said at South Pasadena in their campaign: "I have lost money for two years, and I cannot pay till I have a good crop, but walnuts have never gone over three years without a good crop. Since I have four years to pay, I am certain of one good crop or two out of which I will pay my subscriptin of $5,000." On faith in the future, we make business investments. Let us invest in this church building on the same basis. Sing a song of oysters. A dozen in a stew; That's nutriment for any gent. And is digestion too. THE PLAIN DEALER, ANAHEIM, CALIF. GARRAH TALKS TO SOLICITORS is address lat night to those who need to solicit new and in-depth subscriptions towards the sale of the proposed new Presbyterian church, Dr. McGarrah part: If any apologies are passed, should come from those who do not refuse to pay part of the cost of the churches from their families and the utility benefit. No say: 'We are begging church again,' or you will cry of blasphemy. God created earth. The earth is his made it.' God is not a but the business of the world. If landlord bankers can ask their without being called begin to tactfully but frankly people to subscribe for this building as a debt to God, cannot afford to subscribe' is the excuse. Reply by asking them are not affording a good thing that are petty and compared with the treasury importance of erecting a building to be dedicated to the worship of God to the education of the children, other spiritual purposes. In debt' is another ex-working will meet. Have we not bailed to God to Christ and church? Are we not in those who built the in which we have worked from which we have used? Are we not under those who built the in which we have worked from which we have used? Are we not help create a build which the coming generals have the same privilege one says: 'I never make one say,' say to him: DOES ADVERTISING PAY? Advertising has made the Victoria dog famous. It has put Castoria down your throat, left bristles in your gums, and then came along with a Rubberset and took them out. It has put Sozonton, Febbecce and Pepsodent on your teeth. It has put a Gillette against your hayfield. It has put Murine in your eye, sold you Cuticura for pimples, Pears for the bath, and Ivory for the tub. It has put Arrow collars around your neck and Ingersoll around your wrist. It has jammed your feet in Holeproof sox, put Paris garers on your legs and Tiffany rings on your fingers. It has worn out your jaws on Wrigley and posted you on what to buy to cure corns, warts and bunions and ingrowing toenails. Go anywhere you want to, do anything you wish, and advertising has had a hand in it—absolutely. And then some people ask—"Does advertising pay?"—Kansas City Club News. 5 DEAD, 2 HURT FROM LANDSLIDE SEATTLE, Jan. 24. Five men were dead, two were hovering on the brink of death and another was suffering from serious injuries today, victims of a landslide yesterday at the "Stone and Webster Construction camp of the Baker river power plant at Concrete. Charles Barkus of Seattle; Robert Small of Concrete; Andy Norman of Bremerton; Richard Turner of Henderson, North Carolina, and L. W. Anderson of Bremerton were killed. STARS SEEN DURING ECLIPSE (Continued from Page One) from the sun winked out the total eclipse set in for its brief period. Scientists and laymen viewed the scene in awe. The scientists with their photographic instruments capable of making accurate observations and records, spent a crowded, nervous few minutes. Airplanes, high in the sky, gave other scientists and newspaper masters a chance to make "close up" photographs of the phenomena. Laymen gazed at the astral spectacle in astonishment. They turned to each other, passed smoked glasses about and commented in an excited fashion. Most of them frankly admitted they did not understand it from its scientific standpoint but they were unanimous in voicing it a "great show." Scientists eager that the laymen be not left in the dark—except of course, for that wonderful minute or two—delivered talks to them thru the radio broadcasting stations and they were listened to with as much attention as a world series. NEW HAVEN, Conn., Jan. 24. The bright red of this morning sky was blotted for two full minutes today at 9:12 a.m. in a total eclipse of the sun by the moo. As the hundred mile wide shadow of the moon swept over New Haven on its way to the Atlantic ocean from Duluth, Minn., this city craned its neck in a awful battle of scientists glued unblinking eyes to telescopes and camera to record the phenomena. The first total eclipse in northeastern America since 1806. Aided by perfect weather conditions plus a ground blanket of show, the main glories of the eclipse were unfolded to the naked eye. The sun's corona, the shadow bands, gleaming stars and glamming streamers were observed by millions in the vicinity. The famous shadow bands be out to determine its effect on waves. SKY OBSCURED YERKES QB SERVA WILLIAMS BAY, Mich., J As the duration of the solar eclipse expired Edwin B. Frost of the astro-gathered to photograph and the phenomenon here told that the clouded sky obscured the eclipse so that doubtful whether observation any value to science were Photographs were taken. Frost said, but they are not poeted to disclose anything than perhaps some light phenomena that is usual in a solar system. FLY ABOVE CLOUD ABOARD NAVAL OVER TUCKET, Mass., Jan. 24. Radio to International New Zelea at 6:30 a.m.—We are Coney Island. Our attitude is feet and temperature above zero. Our cruising with five engines working knots. We passed clouds at an altitude of 2000 feet. The sky is Sunrise was unobstructed by clouds. It looks as though eclipse observations will be feect. Smoked Glasses Unnecesses DES MOINES, Ia., Jan. Des Moines citizens who left beds early today to witness eclipse did not have to smoke glasses. In fact, mosphere was so well smoked they will have to take some person's word that Old Sol was hidden by any other than the well known "burn coal" slogan. VERY SUCCESSFUL NEW HAVEN, Conn., Jan. "Marvelously successful," as ing to Prof. Ernest W. Broyale Yale University's astronomical department, was the observer today of the sun's eclipse. All observers were agree the observation was taken exceptionally favorable condition. SEATTLE, Jan. 24—Five men were dead, two were hovering on the brink of death and another was suffering from serious injuries today, victims of a landslide yesterday at the "Stone and Webster Construction camp of the Baker river power plant at Concrete. Charles Barkus of Seattle; Robert Small of Concrete; Andy Norman of Bremerton; Richard Turner of Henderson, North Carolina, and L. W. Anderson of Bremerton were killed. The most seriously injured are Frank Heffernan, son of J. T. Heffernan, Seattle capitalist, and W. J. Steele, also of Seattle. Sidney Curtis, of Oakdale, was only slightly hurt. The men were eating lunch in the derrick house when the slide occurred. Heffernan, Skeele and Curtis were imprisoned under heavy machinery which broke the full impact of the slide, saving their lives, but the others were apparently killed instantly. The bodies of the dead men were not recovered until nearly 12 hours of feverish work by their comrades, who at first hoped to find them alive. Reapportionment Failure Predicted SACRAMENTO, Jan. 24—With the biennial bill hopper again running over and the members impatient to get back to their homes, the first half of the 46th session of the California state legislature came to an end today. Though the session has been the briefest in history more measures were presented than two years ago, and what is in these bills even their own sponsors are not altogether sure. The work of sifting them out and beating them into acceptable new laws is the labor of the next session which will begin Monday, Feb. 24. Reapportionment is still a leading issue, and will probably bleed to death as has been the case in two past sessions. The south is standing on the principal of law and will accept no compromise. The north is standing pat on the larger welfare of the state and with a militant farm bloc to make the fight has nothing to worry over as to the final outcome, in its opinion. Of the 1800 or more bills presented the largest single group is made up of insurance bills. Los Angeles has been the most persistent community factor here during the first half of the season. Determined to have reapportionment, a state prison in the souh, an asylum for the insane, a separate state university, a ocean from Duluth, Minn., this city craned its neck-in-awe while a battalion of scientists glued unblinking eyes to telescopes and camera to record the phenomena. The first total eclipse in a northeastern America since 1805. Aided by perfect weather conditions plus a ground blanket of show, the main glories of the eclipse were unfolded to the naked eye. The sun's corona, the shadow bands, gleaming stars and flaming streamers were observed by millions in the vicinity. The famous shadow bands began to play over the sides of built-ins a few minutes before the total eclipse. At 9:10 the ominous shadow of the moon appeared from the west and the horizon dropped away, the great shadow rushed toward New Haven at the terrific speed of a mile a second. The millions of watching humanity forgot to breathe. Prof. Ernest U. Brown in charge of observations at Yale University showed "stations" to the gathered scientists Prof. J. A. Miller of Swarthmore College repeated the order to his corps. While a freezing wind mooned thru the instruments set up on a snow clad field, the scientists took their allotted places. Two women and a 13-year old boy were in the squad. Mrs. R. W. Marriott manned a spectrograph. Miss Mary France focussed a 70-inch camera and Max Miller 13, son of Prof. Miller, guided a 17 inch camera. Brown made a tender adjustment of his new device for photographing the sun's corona. The novel feature of the instrument was a pendulum swinging in front of the camera lens, allowing fractional picturization. Prof. Miller piloted the twin Einstein camera with its history-making possibilities. The assistants mounted to their scaffolds, ready to uncover the giant lenses. "One minute to go," shouted Geo. Clothier, timekeeper. "Draw your slides." "Thirty seconds to go. Uncover" roared Clothier over the wind. Bending close to his chronometre he began counting "one, two, three four, five, six, seven, eight, nine." The moment of the eclipse has arrived. "Flash" yelled each camera captain. The timekeeper called off the precious 120 seconds. Telescopes were swinging. Science tried to look a million years within the two minutes. Thirteen year old Max Miller was shivering beside his camera. Perhaps he was cold. Meanwhile the mechanism of business in New Haven had halted. As the shrouded sun began to reappear, a patrolman directing traffic, blew his whistle, and the thin stream of vehicles took on life. The sun also continued on its way. VERY SUCCESSFUL NEW HAVEN, Conn., Jan. "Marvelously successful," after to Prof. Ernest W. Broy Yale University's astronomic department, was the observer today of the sun's eclipse. "All observers were agreed in exceptionally favorable condition said Prof. Brown." EXTREMELY HIGH THROAT SAN FRANCISCO, Jan.

Rickard at Santa Clara University to N.S. today. Confirming a prediction several weeks ago Father Rickard famous as the Padre of the sea said that his observations at Santa Clara observatory did past 48 hours convinced his earlier prediction would correct. Father Rickard pointed out there was not the slightest boltility of earthquakes or tremors in the United States that any disturbances of character would be thousand miles from here. The earthquake shocks will be strongest at about 2 degrees north of the equator and may felt on either the Atlantic or ciffle Coasts.

Song of oysters, in a stew; enrichment for any gentligest foo. Los Angeles has been the most persistent community factor here during the first half of the session. Determined to have reapportionment, a state prison in the south, an asylum for the insane, a separate state university, a state building and other institutions, if possible, the southerners have been extremely busy. To further this program the Los Angeles C. of C. has been sounding out members here in regard to an excursion to be made south early in March by the entire legislature. The chamber, is said, has raised a fund of $15,000 for this purpose. With the budget disposed of and everyone satisfied on that score, the second half of the session will have free way for the following measures: Highway financing program; conservation, including the referral program of the California Development League; water programs and taxation. These are the more important measures which the lawmakers will consider. Capital punishment, or rather its abolishment will be at the front in the consideration of the legislators. Two members, Sen Roy Fellom from San Francisco, and Assemblyman Sydney Graves, of Los Angeles have measures before the legislature to do away with hanging of murderers in California. KUALA, Lamhore Straits Settlement, Jan. 24.—Two European officials and a Chinese girl anarchist were seriously wounded today by the explosion of a bomb hurled by the girl, who indicated in a statement that she wanted to kill the governor. The injured Europeans were Edward Richards and Wm. Blythe. J. A. Chitty for orange trees, 204 Bush; phone 671-31—Adry. NATURE TRUMP ACE CHICAGO, Jan. 24.—Nature trumped its own age today. Her best show of the century, a total solar eclipse, was veiled by a clouded sky over Chicago. The clouded sky over the city so covered the sky that the eclipse made it seem as though daylight was only a bit late. There were strange shadows, only a murky darkness, as a belated sun. In the "loop," the business district, a low hanging cloud of smoke, helped the clouds to hide nature's show. The darkness held until 8 o'clock and then Saturday, Jan. 24. was on its way under cover of dark low-hung clouds. At 8:30 o'clock half an hour after the near total eclipse was scheduled to appear it was as near daylight as could be expected on a cold cloudy winter day. Whipped by a stiff north wind, clouds pushed into the east built a gray wall between the laymen who lined office building windows and packed roofs and piers into the lake, from seeing more than the usual Chicago early morning grayness. FEAR INTERFERENCE LONDON, Jan. 24.—England's chief concern in the eclipse seemed to be whether it would interfere with the Saturday football game. There seemed an even chance that it would be visible when the truntun sun broke thru the haze shortly before noon. Street vendors of small smoked glasses immediately met a bullish market. Special observations were made from Greenwich observatory and Broadcasting tests were carried FATHER RICKARD pointed out there was not the slightest bility of earthquakes or tremors in the United States that any disturbances of character would be thousand miles from here. The earthquake shocks will be strongest at about 2 deep north of the equator and may felt on either the Atlantic or ciffle Coasts. In California, Arizona and southwest stroms will follow the eclipse and rain probably be received in San Diego, Los Angeles and Arizona, Father Rickard said. BRYAN AT WHITE HOUSE WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.— llam J. Bryan viewed the eclipse of the sun today from that tage point he has so long sought—the White House. The Commoner was an caller on President Coolidge was closeted with him in conscience for a quarter of an hour What the object of his misuse was, he declined to say. He willingly however, to talk about eclipse. "The eclipse," said Bryan much like a Democratic defect it is only temporary. The sunshine again." GALE RIPS BALLOON GENEVA, N.Y., Jan. 24. 45-mile gale ripped the fasting balloon in which the University solar eclipse party about to ascend at 8:30 o'clock this morning with Ralpe Up Detroit engineer and former national balloon racing champ as pilot.

Of all the mean things published in the Bulletin I was most shocked at evening when I read the venemous and cruel attack on city attorney, Wm. P. Webb, J.

I have known little Webb ever since he came to Anaheim a little boy seven or eight years old and know how to be clean, upright young man. I would like to shake hands with the soldier who replied to that cowardly article and with the soldier I will say I believe many votes will be charged because of it.

It would seem that a preacher of the gospel of Jesus Christ would not have time to carry on a drama of hate but instead follow the teachings of the one who is supreme over all.

It's false, my friend, this stuff you hear. About the dread, night atmosphere; For he who sleeps with his windows up. Wants no draught from the doctors cup. The most economical little salesman is a Class Ad in this paper. The same was demonstrated in the greatest war the world has ever known. Thru it all we were never accused of being unfair in those tactics. How different today with one who goes to church on Sunday and offers a prayer from a mind of hate, then goes out among men breeding prejudice. Is it not a fact that a man thinketh so he is? In conclusion I want to say that all loyal Legion men stand squarely behind Comrade Webb today; the same as back in those dark days of '17 '18. Respectfully A SOLDIER. The Plain Dealer: Praise to the soldier who told the truth about Attorney Webb. Oh, that there were a few more men of such character. Just give a certain preacher or enough rope and he will find the end. My husband served 18 months over there in the navy. And to think that a minister would make such remarks about a man with such a war record as Wm. Webb, when he is sick in bed. The stay-at-home-slackers forget too soon what the boys did for them—A Sailor's Wife and proud of it.
