Eecause the dampers were closed, the flames burst out of the oven . door, burned the baker's arms, neck and face painfully and singed off his mustache and eye .brows' completely. .The fact that Mr. Karcher was wearing glasses at the time of the explosion prevented-any serious injury to his eyes. First aid was administered to Mr. Karcher by his daughters, who sprinkled his. fate and neck with soda, until the necessary attention could be given to his injuries. It is believed that he will be entirely recovered from the effects of the accident within a week or two. In the-meantime Wayne county, fishermen are lamenting the unfortunate episode which robbed them of their hot rolls.

Dr. O. Edward Janney of Baltimore, ' noted lecturer, author -and teacher, spoke on "Religion and Modern Problems" at the session of Friends at the North A Street church this afternoon. In his address, the Eastern jnan considered the relation of religion to business, government, education and the prominent rural movement of the day. He showed that industry is necessary and yet that It should not be allowed to occupy every moment of a person's time, but should allow an opportunity for culture and consideration of the welfare of the community. Business is Inconsiderate. "As too often conducted, business is organized selfishness, not mindful of the right and well being of others; Is indeed a species of warfare. In a few instance employers are careful of their employes, and here and there instances of men who strive to conduct business in accord with principles of justice are to be observed, but these are rare. "Certain tests should be applied to business. Does it make sound morals and good physique? Is it conducted so as to make it easy to do right and hard to do wrong? Is it in accord with the Golden Rule? If not, then it is business that is wrong, not the rule. If conditions are such that the rule cannot be followed, then change the conditions." Discusses New Bills. Dr. Janey spoke of the value of recent legislation including the eight hour laws, safety appliance bills, the establishment of minimum wages. Profit sharing as practiced in some of the large Industries was also complimented, f "A change in the conduct of business is- essential in order that it may be in accord with Christianity," he declared. The relation of religion to government was also considered. "It is evident that government affects every person for good or evil and religion can flourish only in an atmosphere of liberty. Therefore, the church has an immediate and vital interest in government. Shows Inconsistency. "The government of no country is Christian, it is pagan, the people may be Christian, but the governments are not. This is shown by politics, diplomacy, our treatment of the Indian, the negro, of other countries as in the first Mexican war and our seizure of the
