ARC LIGHT TO BE
RAISED 20 FEET
Poles Distributed Along Main Street
for Change Ordered by
Council.
The new poles for the change of
the height of the are lights have
been placed on the ground near
their respective places. The change
was ordered by the council some time
ago. The new poles are CO feet In
length and will raise the arcs about
20 feet higher than they are now.
The change will make possible the
casting of light at a much greater dis
tance than at the present time, and
the streets will be much better lighted
than before.
Notwithstanding the above argu
ments, many have been heard to say
that the lower the lights are placed
the better the lights, for when the
lights are placed there is always an
area under the light itself that Is en
tirely dark. Portland has experiment
ed on this for years and finally plac
ed their arcs as low as the law would I
permit

TO REACH THE
MODERN
MIND
THOUGHTFUL PAPER READ
DR. HEPPE AT MINISTERS'
MEETING.
BY
Chapter from Book He Has In Prep
arationEast Portland District
Association Adjourns Wed
nesday Evening.
The feature of the afternoon ces
sion of the M. E. Minister's Associa
tion meeting at the First Methodist
church. Wednesday, was the scholar
ly paper by Dr. Heppe on the "Most
Efficient Method of Reaching the
Modern Mind." The paper the pastors
were favored to hear Is a chapter from
a book In preparation by Or. lleppo.
The meeting adjourned sine die
Wednesday afternoon. It was of
great Interest to the 23 pastors who
attended during one or nil of tli " ses
sions. The annual conference will
meet May 1, at the call of the Presid
ing Elder. Follow ing are tho proceed
ings of the closing session:
Wednesday afternoon: Devotions
conducted by L. F. Smith and Dr.
Heppe lead In prayer. The minutes
of the morning session rend and ap
proved. The purpose nnd power of Sunday
School by J. W. McDougal: Three pur
poses found In tho Sunday school
1st, religious Instruction; 2d, Impart
biblical knowledge; 3d, tho promotion
of temperance. The Sunday school is
not to do regaruea as an educational
institution, where salvation of pupil
not to be thought of. Tho power of tho
Sunday school to be found in der
mlnatlon to accomplish its work. . 1.
the power of the personal. ty of the of
ficers and teachers and abiding faith
and trust in Christ. Tho teacher
should exemplify Christ and approach
the Word in spirit of reverence and
power. II. Spiers spoke on the Sun-
day school as an evangelizing field; a
need of a pressing homo of the les-
however is never alive but Is connect-
Ld with feeling and volition. To

mind never can be reached by specu
lation, but a plain statement of the
fundamentals. Second: We notice
emphasis placed upon
me literary
jside. The modern mind wants less
; pumice stone and more whetstone.
j Scholarship Is simplicity. Profundity
is mud. The christian scholar never
boasts of his scholarship. The intel
lectual and emotional methods must
become a unit, that both sides of
man's nature may be touched.
The kind of preaching necessary to
the revival Rev. L. F. Smith, Trinity,
Portland: A revival sermon must be
preached in Its fullness. It Is a com
plete circle and must be presented as
such. We must find out where the
sinner Is hiding and push him out of
his hiding place. It must be an ex
pository sermon and finally wrought
out in an atmosphere. We should ex
pect the Gospel to do its work.
Spiritual Life of the Pastor Dr.
Ford: The chief business of the pas
tor Is to save souls. The spiritual
life is the essential life. It sustains
a vital relation to weilfare of the
church.

MORE LIGHT MR
SOUTHERN PACIFIC
Big Corporation Discovers Electricity
Its First Step for Modern
Methods.
The public Is pleased with an Im
provement tt the Southern Pacific
depot. It Is one step that the com
pany has taken toward getting away
from the primitive methods or ruts
It has fallen Into at this place. Elec
tric lights have taken tho place of
tho coal oil lamps.
Reports have gone out that the
agent Is all smiles for the car shortage
problem has been apparently Holved
and the large shippers of this vicinity
have been able to secure the neces
sary cars. Hurst of Aurora Is ship
ping potatoes to the people of Califor
nia, l.indsloy i Sou have been load
ing lumber for some time and the
' shipments are to be sent to Salt Lake
'City markets, while Sam Gregory, the
i Clackamas com ty teasel grower, Is
shipping his product across the con
! tlnent.
j The shippers of this district that
have to bring their product to Oregon
i City for shipment are still greatly
handicapped as the cost of loading
their cars eats a large percentage of
their protlts.
Some of the business men through
the pages of the Star have given solu
tions to the switching and transporta
tion facilities of the railroad company
at this point. It would bo well for
the shippers to study these facts that
have been presented. It means that
they should get togethei and see what
could be done before the company gets
into the notion that the Improvement
of better lights Is sufficient to satis
fy the demands of Its patrons.
