WILLIE AT THE PHONE Honest, if this business doesn't let up, they'll make me bow-legged carry ing packages around. I heard of a man once who was awfully bow-legged. When he wanted his wife to sit on his lap, he had to put a board across. I wish they'd put boards be hind the counters in this store, so I could wait on folks. 1 hate to see any one waiting. We've got some awful ly good salesmen. When the old man hires a new clerk he wants to know his record as a sprinter. If he can's make a hundred yards in ten seconds, he can't get the job. There's some advantages In being quick and some disarvantages, but if you don't like to hurry yourself, there's the tele phone. Phone in your order and I'll see that they get your stuff out p. q.

SERMONS ON BUSINESS SUNDAY EVENING THE FIRST OF A SERIES OF THREE SER MONS AT M. E. CHURCH. LAUNCH INTO BUSINESS Rev. R. C. Blackwell Gives the First Sermon Sunday Evening Good Talk to Young and Old. Rev. R. C. Blackwell, pastor of the Methodist Church in this city has en tered Into a three-course sermon along the theme of being diligent in what work you may have to do, and by so doing, put Oregon City in the front rank. His sermon last Sunday evening was the first of the series of three, and he touched along tne lines as above stated. He read the twelfth chapter of Romans as his lesson, which is a lesson on faithfulness in any work and diligence, and added if we would all live up to the teachings of that lesson we would indeed live a righteous life, without diligence in business there can he but llttlo pos sibility of success. When this world was organized It was Intended we should work and that at legitimate business, putting great stress on the various lines of business that are Il legitimate. There Is no place in tbls world for the deliberate idler, sayeth the preacher, and that God expects man to work as long and as hard as he can. He talked of the Insatiable desire of the little child to play and the child that plays hard and enthus iastically will grow to be a faithful worker and a diligent workor, let him play was his command make him play. He talked of the man or wo man, who with the large family that must be fed, the home to be taken care of and the hours of labor requir ed to meet the demands-of tlw hun gry little ones at home and how through the long hours of faithfulness the toilers were making their way to theeir home of rest and happiness above, In the great hereafter. The worker who can not do his work without friction has no place here and he should go at once and take lessons from" the great builder of the universe and the teacher of the true work of man. It is worth while to work for what comes out of it, and then to make all that Is in it come out . Our ancestors built to the benefit of future generations, and we can now do as well, and again we should not be lost In the thought of material things, build well into a crimson vein, into the human heart, and God's blessing will stand as a foundation of the structure through out eternity.
