JOSEPH No citizen was more prominently identified with the administration of public affairs or with the city's progress generally of two decades ago than Joseph Micelli, whose death occiirred yesterday. As a member of the street and fi nance committees of the city council, he was the practical rind business minded man who largely directed the installa tion of street paving and with equal success officially guid ed the city through a number of other important' undertak ings. It was chiefly in recognition of his splendid record as a councilman that the city rewarded him with the mayor alty, and in the capacity of an executive he was not found wanting. It is sufficient evidence of his energetic and civic spirit that ho gave so jnuch of his time to the affairs of his home city while being obliged to give close attention to his personal business. A native of Italy and starting life in moderate circumstances, he rose to local prominence by dint of hard work and constant application to business matters. Fraternities with which he became affiliated honored him with high positions and friends were made by the simplicity of his life and the likeable qualities of his character. With his passing there remains the memory of 'a citizen born abroad who made good in the land of his adoption and left a record of civic activities unsurpassed in ' importance by any man who ever served the city of Rose burg. : o . Clem Shaver, until recently chairman of the demo cratic national committee, is doing all he can to work for tho success of the party ticket at the fall election. Mi3. Shaver, a militant dry, is doing all she can to bring its de feat. And this family division raises a nice question: Just how much loyalty does the wife of a ,man in public life owe her husband in nitters of this kind, anyway? Surely no woman has to think and vote 'as her husband does. Mar ried or single, she has a right to her own opinion, and a right to express it. Vet this case is different. The only Reason anyone pay's any attention to Mrs. Shaver's remarks is because of her husband's, position. She is noticed only becuuso she is Chm Shaver's wifd. By herself she would be Ignored. And, under such circumstances, it would' seem as if her outburst' is a bit uncalled for. Tho lady has spoken out of turn.

Build your houses, set up your fountains and next spring be ready to attract them when they come back from their winter homes in the south. A CHANCE FOR FRIENDS In every spring the birds come by, Inquiring, friendly, modest, shy; They've had n long and wearing tour; They're in a mood for friendly lure. If you are ready, tempt their stay 1 hcy'll'make you glad most any day. 1 hey are most grateful little friends Whose presence constant pleasure lends. 'Tis sweet to hear their tiny cheeps As from the nest n fledgeling peeps. 'Tis sweet to see their fluttering wings I he feathered lover as he sings; 1 o watch them rid the trees of pests Or see them working nt their nests, i 1 hey fill each day with singing joy And give your interest full employ. Of tenements each has n choice And in it he must have n voice: The martins love lo live in flats Where they may have their friendly chats; Sweet Jenny Wren loves solitude In which to rear her tiny brood A little box behind a vine High on the wall makes her a shrine. A bluebird likes his nest up high Where he may view the open sky; A swallow likes to spin a yarn . In sonic old knothole in the barn Or 'nentlvthe roof of your garage He will establish his menage: Give them a fountain full of drink Where they may bathe and gaily prink. No other tenants pay such rent They seem to be from heaven sent : 1 hey give your hearts n gladness pure. And give your thoughts n bright allure; They come in sprightly genial throngs And pay their keep in happy songs. They are the'harbingers of cheer Who come again with evety year.

The International Uniform Sun day School Lesson for July 22, Saul's Early Ministry, Acts 9:19 30; 11:25, 26. By WM. E. GILUOV, D. D. (Editor of tho Congregationalist.) This lesson deals with Paul's rariy experience in tho Christian life and ministry. Naturally, when tho story of Paul's conversion came to the Christians at Damascus they were amazed, but apparently his wit ness was so convincing that their distrust was entirely removed and they were led to see the genuine ness of his conversion. Also, Paul's adherence to the Christian wtiy was quickly tested In persecution, for the Jews when they found that Paul had desert ed their cause and become a . Chris tian sought to kill him, watching for him at tho gates of the city with such zeal that the disciples were compelled for Paul's safety to let him down hy night through FRED L.

K(w And when Saul was come to Jerusalem, he assayed to Join mm self to the disciples: hxxl they were all af.raid of him. and helieyed not that ho was a disciple. , ., ' Hut Ilarnahas took him. and brought him to the ap6stles and de clared unto thorn how he had seen the Lord In the way. and that he had spoken to him, and how ho had preached boldly, at Damascus la the name of Jesus. ' . And he was with them coming In and going out at Jerusalem. And he spake boldly in the. name of the Lord Jesus, and disputed against the Grecians; hut they went about to slay him. Which when tho brethren knew, they brought him down to Caesarea, and sent him forth to Tarsus. - -t ' Then departed- Uarnabas to Tarsus, for to seek Saul: And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And It came to pass that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Curia thins first in Antioch. , had preached boldly In the name of Jesus. . . Thus ft was that Paul was ac cepted by the disciples. at, Jerusa lem, and thu.- "began the friend ship between Paul aud Barnabas which had its first great expres sion in tho First Missionary Jour ney. The boldness of Paul's preaching at Jerusalem put him in peril and the disciples sent him for safety far away to his birthplace, Tarsus. Meanwhile, Barnabas left for An tioch, sent there by the disciples at Jerusalem because of reports that had come concerning certain Greeks in Antioch who had been led to believe in Jesus through the preaching of disciples "who had been scattered to various places by the persecution at Jerusalem. . We are reminded in our lesson that It was here at Antioch that the disciples were first called Christians. Barnabas went to An tioch and confirmed these nc,w dis ciples in. the faith, and then went on to Tarsus to look for Paul. Tarsus, as one may see from examining tho map, is not far from Antioch, either by land or sea. Barnabas found Paul there and brought him back with him to Antioch where he and Paul re mained for a whole year, gathering together the church and teaching the people. Here in a sense It was that or ganized Christianity had its begin ning, for tho church nt Jerusalem had represented iy new experience among Jews, rather, .than the or ganization of a new Institution representing a fellowship of both Jews and Gentiles in the bonds of 10, Saturday jiight danco frolic (NHC.

Probably It was thiB significance that -was emphasized in the fact that the disclnk's were first called Chris tians tu this, church at Antioch. There was a deeper significance, d. in tho Christian rvgmuinef in this city, for the founding otv this church at Antioch represent ed the challenge of Christianity to the licentious and corrupt living of ancient civilization. Antioch was a magnificent city, 15 miles from the Mediterranean on the river Orontes, but its moral condition was .in strange contrast to Its outward magnificence and ' glory. . It was on the great ways i ot travel and commerce between i east and wst and the evil as, well as the wealth of the ancient world poured through It. The life of the city was so im moral that when Roman moralists would condemn the licentiousness of Rome they wore wont to say that "the Orontes had overflowed the Tiber." it has been the glory of Chris tianity that it has ever made Us power felt in the prosence of the greatest need. Here in a corrupt city the leaven ot new life began to work. Just how great the triumph was ; in the ancient day we cannot say, but it Is significant that Antioch is now remembered not so much for lis splendor as a city as for the little group of .disciples who were gathered there Into a Chris tlan church and who hPin-'fronh-"!
