PASTORS PREACH SERMONS ON THE ePROBLJSOFLIFE Warnings Issued From Pulpits to Fight Evil and to Obey Bible Teachings, Indianapolis pastors Sunday issued ■warnings in sermons against evil influences in life which tend to make one forget the teachings of right living as recorded in The Bible. The Rev. Louis C. E. Fackler. pastor of St. Matthew Evangelical Lutheran Church, made a plea from his pjJpit for people to realize the present day perversion of the law and the gospel of Jesus. In a sermon Sunday night on “The Battle of Life" at the Brlghtwood Congregational Church, the Rev. Charles H. Gunsolus declared that “life is a continual battle and we must ever be on the watch lest we be overcome by Satan." “We do not know much about a battle until we understand who the enemy is and what the weapons are." the Rev. Gunsolus said. “The Christian is compelled to fight with great evil principles and powers. The tight is not against flesh and blood but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world and against spiritual wickedness in high places. “Reflection of character never can be attained save through suffering. There is no easy way to glory. It is much tribulation that we enHy into the kingdom of Heaven. Saved by suffering, not saved from it, that is the law of life revealed in Christ,” the Rev. Gunsolus declared. Pastor (.alls Attention to the Great Unrest Today The Rev. Fackler, at St. Matthew Church, in a sermon on “The Never Falling Word of God." called upon his congregation to consider the present day unrest. “Look at the great unrest." he said. “Behold the still greater threatening trouble that seems to be overshadowing us. Each year the trouble seems to be more perplexing. Each year new troubles arise which seem to confuse us still more, which seem to throw our country into still greater disorder, instead of bringing us to that much desired peace. “Then look at the church. Now rhe is troubled on every side. How difficult it Is to get people to appreciate the word of God. “The Lord will not fail to carry out His word until those that will not believe really believe. Does not Goa say he that believeth not shall be damned? The wicked shall fall? The wicked shall be cut off from the earth and the transgressors shall be rooted out of it? The wicked shall net remain unpunished? Is God’s word true? Look how the wicked are still in our midst. It seems as if the wicked, instead of being cut off, are j obtaining more energy' to carry on j their will. •"Look at the actions of the wicked, ley scorn and they ridicule the j ■ at It. They defy all that God says. 1 ;ut i* that not what they did to Christ? e Bible Answers All These Questions “Has the Word of God ever failed The word does not fail with the unbeliever, or those who will not be, corrected. It will be fulfilled. They suffer for their resistance. Those who will not oppose it will lead to the knowledge of still greater truth. ‘‘lt is this word that our people need to respect, and respect so much | that they will not tamper with it as ; so many are want to do. If we will : give heed to its precepts it will lead j us from blessing unto blessing until j finally the greatest of all blessings | shall be given unto us. eternal life. It is the word that worketh faith in the crucified Lord within our soul. “God’s word will be carried out Those that refuse to believe shall suffer in time and eternity and God said that they would for their unbelief. The faithful shall partake of j eternal Joy as God promised it. “Blessed are they that hear the word of God and keep it,” Rev. Fackler said. RITE OF BAPTISM EXPLAINED Rev. Horace Sprague Says Act Signifies Consecration to Religion. “Washing away the carnal sins of the world teaches the child that we have taken this rite as signifying our tfteire to consecrate its life in the of the Master,” said the Rev. Horace A. Sprague in a sermon on “The Meaning of Baptism" at Hall Place M. E. Church. GOD’S LEFT-HANDED CHRISTIAN “Folks Who Are Different" Able to to Make Way Felt “God has seen fit to use left-handed Christians, folks who are different, ! but they have been able to make their way felt in the w'orld of sin,” ! said the Rev. George S. Henninger j Sunday night in sermon on “Left- ' Handed Folks" at the East Tenth Street M. E. Church. “MAN MUST BE IN GOD’S FAVOR" Rev. Luke Rader of Chicago Preaches on Subject of “Success.” “Man must be in favor with God to be any kind of a success,” said the Rev. Luke Rader, Chicago, brother of Paul Rador, the evangelist, Sunday at the Cadel tabernacle preaching on the subject, “God’s Prescription For Success.” About thirty members of the Gypsy Smith choir were present. Dr. George F. Oliver of Cleveland. 0., preached in the evening. JAMES SPEAKS AT TABERNACLE Hamanity God’s Property by Right of Creation. He Says. jiff' are the property of God by ; right of creation.” declared the Rev. (gWcy C. James, ex-director of the Smith choir, Sunday morning at the First United Brethren Church, where he preached on “The Purchased Tabernacle.” “We did not make ourselves, but through God came life," he asserted.

RESEARCH MAKES UNDERINFLATION Os TIRE POSSIBLE Dayton Cords Render Best Service When Pressure Is Comparatively Low. An interesting scientific research has resulted in a radical change in the manufacture of certain types of pneumatic automobile tires. This ha,s come about because tires are built so as to give their best service when underinflated. This increases the amount of tire satisfaction: it reduces vibration and shock, increasing the comfort of motoring: removes the danger of skidding, and helps eliminate punctures. The D. & D. Vulcanizing Company. 150 S. Delaware St., has found that Dayton Tires give the best service when underinflated. Many motorists have equipped their cars with Dayton tires and would never consent to having any other kind put on. They realized the advantages that come with driving with tires of lower inflation than those of normal manufacture. / Because Dayton Thorobred Cords are built for underinflation the tread yields to road obstruction, wears away more slowly and evenly, does not chip or cut and as a result thousands of additional miles of service are made possible. They combine utility with comfort and at the same time command the respect of every careful driver because of their economical tendencies. CUBA NO LONGER IS ‘MECCA’ FOR DRINKERS Liquor Traffic Between United States andCuba Not Obvious. Uy Timex Speciat RICHMOND, Ind.. Aug. 20.—Americans. “regular booze fighters,” who used to frequent Cuba in great numbers. no longer go there. Sylvester Jones, a representative of the American Friends board of foreign missions, who has been stationed in Cuba, says in a report to the central offices. “Although much has been said ; about the liquor traffic between the! United States and Cuba, it is not very obvious. While liquor is sold every place, I saw only one real drunk in the four months J was there,” Jones comments.

USE OF WORN-OUT TIRES IS COSILY FOR MOTORISTS ; ‘Trublprufs’ Do Not Puncture, Blow Out or Rim Cut. How little satisfaction is gotten 1 from a motor trip if tire trouble makes j long and frequent stops necessary. Worn tires are often expensive to drive, for they cause big repair bills 1 and waste of time and money, in no way offset by the price of new tires. , The need for dependable tire equipment has been felt since the perfection of the automobile. About ninety per cent ; of the motorist’s trouble comes from | bad tires. Motors, ignition systems, j body lines and other features of a I car had been developed to a high ; state of perfection while the manu- ; facture of tires was still In Its in- ! fancy. Yet, there is nothing that : contributes more to the service of a j car than tires, provided they are of ; the proper sort. I. R. Brubaker of the Lambert Trublpruf Tire Company. 129 New York St., reports a very brisk trade in these tires and feels that they an’ swer the need for dependable tire j equipment. “Trublprufs” said Mr. Brubaker, ‘.“cannot puncture, blowout or rim cut: the driver never has to stop to change a tube or put on a spare. The resilient rubber from which they are made together with i their design make them as easy riding as If they were inflated. They are the cheapest tires on the market. The first cost is the last cost. There is no repair cost and they actually wear longer than pneumatics. The automatic control of all* pressure as sures a uniform amount of air all the time and because of this proper inflation the gas consumption is cut. “It is our business to advise customers as to the best type of tire to purchase for bis particular car and the service we render is comparable with the high grade product we handle.”

CONE IS IDEAL FUEL FOR HOME HEATING PLANT Citizens Gas Company Prepares Exhibit Showing Proper Method of Firing, SMOKE IS ELIMINATED Large Quantitv Must Be Fed to Obtain Best Results, Evoking much comment from the | passersby, the -window display of the I Citizens Gas Company at the corner | of Maryland and Pennsylvania Sts. is interesting and instructive. Planned i by F. C. Rostenburg, assistant secreI tary of the company, the window was j prepared with the idea of giving a j concrete .erxample of how a furnace should bo fired when coke Is used | and how this fuel Is superior to coal jas a furnace fuel. A full size furnace :is installed in the window with an ! open firebox showing how the fire bed should be prepared; placards indicate each step in the process of firing. In one corner of the window is a | little house model with soot-covered ! roof and porch—even the siding shows the effects of the clouds of smoke j that rolls from the chimney On I the other side is a duplicate of the same house In which coke is supposed jto have been burned. There is not a | speck of dirt to be seen. Just inside i the offices a baseburner has been set j up and the same plan has been fol- | lowed in order to emphasize the adj vantages derived from burning coke I and how to burn coke to get the best results. Mr. Rastenburg has made the fol- ! lowing observations concerning the ; use of coke: “The best size of coke for househeating furnaces Is the egg size. For the hotblnst and other stoves the chestnut size is more satisfactory and for open grates the egg size is to be preferred. Coke is much lighter than anthracite and bi luminous; therefore a greater bulk should be fired at a time than when j burning coal. Pieces of coke are more angular and have rougher surfaces than bituminous or hard coal, hence they can be packed more tightly In the fuel bed than coke. Consequently the spaces between the pieces of coke are much larger than those between the pieces of coal and allow much freer passage of air. That is why coke requires less draft than either soft or hard coal. “Some people may have an idea that because coke is used in foundries to melt iron it would do the same to furnaces op stoves and injure the grates. Nothing is further from the facts. “It is true that coke will reduce iron to a fluid state in a foundry cupola; it is equally true that hard coal will do the same. The conditions in a furnace or stove are not right to melt the grates or fire pot with any fuel. One of the most frequent causes of

injury to furnaces and stoves is the accumulation of ashes under the grates, preventing cold air from coming in contact with the grates. This condition is very apt to cause injury, no matter what kind of fuel is used. “The use of coke for heating houses is desirable because it is convenient, eliminating smoke and. reducing the necessity of cleaning the furnace and flue. The only way to eliminate smoke in larger cities is by the use of smokeless suel —a fuel that will burn without producing smoke In any equipment. The cost of smoke to the community has been investigated in detail in several large cities. A committee of smoke prevention of the i Cleveland Chamber of Commerce a [ number of years ago fixed the nanual i j cost due to smoke to the city of Cleve- j ; land at $6,000,000, or about sl2 for , every man. woman and child each j ■ year. A similar Investigation made by j the Mellon Institute In Pittsburgh showed a total annual cost of $lO,000,000, or about S2O per capita. This estimate does not Include such items as depreciation In value of property, or injury to health. 'With hot air heating some of the soot may be carried into the house, necessitating more frequent house- i cleaning. The cleanliness of coke will j appeal especially to the housewife, as the coke does not make any soot, either while burning o- being handled. I The smoke made in house heating fur- 1 naces is much more objectionable i than the smoke made in industrial plants, because it is made in residen- j tial sections where it does the most harm.”

DEVELOPMENTS OF WEEN BRIGHTENS BUSINESS WORLD Oil Price War Threatens Life of Competitors of Standard Company, BY DR. LEWIS HANEY NEW YORK ,Aug. 20.—The week's developments have considerably brightened sentiment in the business world. Preliminary July figures show a favorable balance of trade, our merj chandise exports being $26,000,000 | greater than Imports. Pig iron prices are firmer. Wheat lias reached a level which means increased purchasing power for , farmers, even on a smaller crop. Bad news is out on oil. and, as usual, after the worst happens,*an improve- | merit Is anticipated. We may expect ■ completion of the adjustment of sup- | ply and demand. It Is a relief that oil leaders have | quit trying to maintain gasoline at 22 cents retail In the middle west, while the little refiner could get only |Bti cents at his plant. And crude oil at from $ 1.10 to $2.20 a barrel Is plainj ly too high, so that cuts may be exi pectod which will atop over-produc- ■ tlon. During the war petroleum prices | were maintained at an unreasonably high level. Is>lng one of the few basic t Prices which were not regulated by the government. After the war there was no real deflation of the petroleum industry’. Prices were maintained. As a result, great profits could be made find a flood of crude oil was produced. Oil began to accumulate in larger and larger quantities. Instead of shutting off production by reducing prices of crude oil In the old-fashioned way. big companies, notably the : Standard Oil Companies. kept up | Prices and tried to store the oil. This was called a stabilization program. Supply Swamps Companies But new oil fields continued to be i opened up and stocks have become so great that companies are swamped. The situation is made worse by overestimates refiners made gasoline consumption by automobile users and gasoline—by far the most important crude oil prodnet—has piled up at refineries in unheard of v,*ume. “Independent” refiners have warned big concerns that crude oil should be cut and that gasoline prices reduced. Now, too late, reductions have come with a vengeance. Os course, the Standard concerns will temporarily lose money. But more serious la the threatened destruction of small competitors. More serious still is this evidence that we have not been getting a square deal in oil prices. When the Governor of South Dakota offered 160,000 gallons of gasoline for sale at around 16 cents he probably did an unwise thing. That quantity is only a drop in the bucket, but it gave the Standard Oil of Indiana | a chance to cut the price ’ to such I a low figure that its competitors can’t stand It.

Present Prices Too Low It costs about 7c a gallon to produce gasoline in Tulsa at present j crude prices. To this must be added | about four cents for freight and distributing. Two or three cents are required to cover service station costs. This makes a total actual cost of about 14 cents delivered to the consumer, without profit. A price of 15 means loss, 'n August, 1915 the “tank wagon” price in the middle west was ten cents and retail price a little over lie, but the gasoline jobber could get his supply for six cents and the cost of refining was about four cents. Npw crude costs around $1.45 a barrel and | the jobber pays the refiner about 8c i a gallon for gasoline. In 1915 many independents were forced into bankruptly. The situation seems worse now. Situation Will Improve Judging by the past the situation of the big refiners however, should improve. In the second half of 1915, after the price war, gasoline advanced ! about 8c by December. When crude i oil production is checked by price cuts, | improvement will begin, but it will 1

take longer than in 1915, because overproduction is more serious and the surplus stocks larger. Os course if the government should make another investigation as it did in 1916, with a more radical congress in session, some regulatory' legislation might be put through. Much will depend on how moderate the later upswing in gasoline prices is.
