Evangelist Hayward Says Coming
of Lord Is Indicated With
Closing Days of World Ijec-
' tures Are to Continue.
Sex plavs and sensational literature
were ascribed last nlgrht by Evangelist
Hayward as toe cause for unhappy
homes and divorces.
Mr. Hayward spoke at Arcanum Hall.
Thirteenth and Washington streets. He
announced his subject as "Moral and
Financial Cesspools" and said: "The
Bible points out the moral degeneracy
and financial protligacy of our times
Just as clearly as it foretells other
conditions obtaining- in the world.
"Modern styles in dress also must
come in for their share of blame. The
mad competition in social functions is
largely responsible for many of the
extreme and immodest styles."
High Living Costly.
He also referred to the high cost of
living, styling it the "cost of high liv
ing." 'In this day when the gospel of
Jesus Christ is needed more than ever
before, men are slighting it," he said.
"Even many religious men are garb
ing it in robes of philosophy.wThe Bible
Is no longer regarded as an authoritive
statement by an infinite God. Infidelity
and higher criticism have undermined
all moral restraint and the basest pas
sions of the human heart run riot as
though there would never be a day
of accounting.
Last Days Are Hinted.
"The Scriptures speak of this time
as a time when men shal be Movers of
pleasure more than lovers of God, hav
ing a form of godliness, but denying
the power thereol, and this is aeeiarea
to.be the condition that will exist in
the last days. Can they be much
worse? Trutly fhey are signs of the
coming Lord and the closing day- of
earth's history."
The subject for tonight's lecture is
"Signs of the Timos," by Evangelist
IJart. There will be no lecture Mon
day and Tuesday evenings, but Evan
pelist Hayward will speak again
Wednesday on "Smashing the Last
Great World Umpire." and the lectures
will continue throughout the week.

JITNEYS STRIKE SNAG
PATRONS DEJIAXD HIDES IX AXV
1I RUCTION FOR FARE.
Nrvr Scale Proposed Cutting Time of
Srrvlte to five Minutes Likely
to Bring Trouble.
Jitneys have run up against the snag
of patrons demanding that they oper
ate off their routes and, accordingly, a
change was announced yesterday in
rates. ITp to this time they have been
giving a 15-minute ride for 5 cents.
This is to be cut down to a five-minute
ride for 5 cents.
New rate cards appeared yesterday
and were submitted to Commissioner
Dieck. A few were approved before
a joker was found in the schedule and
Issuance of further requests were de
nied and those that had been issued
were . recalled. The joker was in the
form of a higher rate for a ride of 40
or 50 minutes than the rate for one
hour.
The jitneys, to escape the City Coun
cil's regulations, established themselves
as 6-ceut taxicabs. They-posted rates
of 5-cent fare for a 15-mlnute ride.
This has enabled patrons to take a jit
ney in any part of the city and demand
a ride in any direction for 5 cents. And
many patrons have taken advantage
so many, in fait, that the jitneys now
want to shorten the length of time
given for 5 cents.
It is said the five-minute ride will
get the jitneye into trouble, because
they cannot make the full run to the
end of their present routes In five min
utes and the taxlcab ordinance prohib
its the charging of more or less than
the rate as set forth on the rate cards
in the machine.

Cocoanut Oil Fine
for Washing Hair
BREWSTER WRITER VISITS
G. W. Alexander Sees Points of In
. terest About Portland.
G. W. Alexander, newspaperman of
Brewster, Or., has returned from Salem,
where he has been attending the Leg
islature. Mr. Alexander has been "see
ing Oregon" since December 20. yes
terday he visited local factories, the
woolen mills and paper mills at Oregon
City and the interstate bridge, between
Portland and Vancouver.
While in Portland Mr. Alexander Is
the guest of his son, Robert J. Alex
ander, at Eighteenth and Taylor
streets. He will leave soon for
Olympia, Wash., and later for Seattle,
Wenatchee and other Washington
points and finally reach Marshfield to

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps . and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle, and Is
very harmful. Just plain mulsifled
cocoanut oil (which is pure and entirely
greaseless) is much better thaii the
most expensive soap or anything else
you can use for shampooing, as this
can't possibly Injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls
will make an abundance, of rich, creamy
lather, and cleanses the hair and scalp
thoroughly. The lather rinses out
easily, and removes every particle of
dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil.
The hair dries quickly and evenly, and
it leaves it fine and silky, bright, fluffy
and easy to manage.
Tou can get mulsifled cocoanut oil at
most any drug store. It is very cheap,
and a few ounces is enough to last
everyone In the family for months.

Ex-Head of Penitentiary Says Resi
dence of Parole Officer at Prison
Not Uuestloned by Illm.
I
J. vv. Minto. ex-superintendent of
the fatate Penitentiary of Oregon, ves-
leraay issued a statement in reply to
remarks uttered by ReDresentative
Benjamin Sheldon, of Medford. on the
floor of the House of Representatives
unursaay, when the State Parole Board
reorganization bill was up and when It
was voted to allow Parole Officer Joe
Keller to be maintained from the com
missary of the State Penitentiarv.
representative Sheldon, durine- the
discussion on the floor, said that Mr.
Keller had told him that under the rul
ing of Mr. Minto a warden he could
not have his family with him at the
penitentiary in his work as State Pa
role Officer.
"The facts are these." said Mr. Minto
yesterday. "I never said or did any
thing toward having Mr. Keller re
moved from bis house or from obtain
ing his living at the Penitentiary. After
he moved away he had his meals at the
Penitentiary whenever he saw fit. As
for his living with his familv at the
Penitentiary the facts further are these:
i reasurer ivay, as a member of the
Board of Control, during one of the
meetings, asked for an opinion from
the Attorney-General as to whether
Keller had the right to live at the
penitentiary and get his family sup
plies as the warden and deputy warden
had a right to do. Mr. Kay insisted
that under the law Keller could not do
so; that he could not maintain a resi
dence and get commissary snppltes for
nis iamuy irom the Penitentiary.
x personally had nothing to do with
the issue brought ud and knew nofhlnc-
about it until the Question came ht ha.
fore the Board of tontrol at the request
oi j. reasurer jh.ay. xne only demand
I made of Keller was that he attend
to his duties as Parole Officer and
leave the management of the nrlson
work within the walls to me, which
arrangement he and J thoroughly un
derstood. I make this statement to
correct the erroneous statement made
on the floor of the House of Represen
tatives oy representative Sheldon and
reported in the newspapers."
REED STUDENTS INSURED
Class of 19 15 Takes Out Twenty-
Year Endowment Policy. v
Members of the class of 1915, the
first class to graduate from Reed Col
lege, have decided to insure the lives
of a number of their classmates for the
benefit of the college. The idea is to
have the endowment policies mature
just before .the 20th reunion of the
class so that the presentation of the
total fund may be made a feature of the
1935 commencement. A sufficient num
ber of contributions have already been
received to guarantee the success of the
plan. The committee in charge of ar
rangements are: David Brace, chair
man: Annie Jordan Harrison and Joyce
Kelly.
Members of the class of 1916 have
also sent in contributions for a similar
purpose, although the details of their
plan have not been worked out, as yet.
Similar plans for endowment insurance
have been successfully inaugurated at
Princeton and Columbia universities.
