CAPTAllALENT OF TRAFFIC SQUAD ILL (By Krnot Hostel) The merits of saving souls and doing emergency relief road work wore basis of a recent heart to heart debate between a road con struction foreman and an itinerant1 preacher who had been fortunate In obtaining a week's employment under the emergency measure. On tho first day out, tho preach er, who had made his home in Ash land, sot lustily to work with Ills pick and shovel and was so en gaged when tho foreman left him. An hour or so later, ho returned to the scene, after having travers ed the length of tho construction work, near Medford. Tho parson had six or seven lab orers about him, listening earnest talk It seemed about religion. "What's coming off here?' quired the foreman. "I'm Jesus Christ," replied tho inspired o'ne, with ono hand wav ing in tho air. "Yes, yes, I know," wondcrlngly to an to be in- replied tho construction head, "but why aren't you working?" 1 "Ah, 'tis far more Important that I save these men's souls than do my menial task," returned the par son blankly, and continued his preaching. "You should dp this on Sundays on tho day set'apart for such work,' 'were" Words tho preacher heard in reply. "But you don't understand. I may never seo theso men again and now Is tho time to do good deeds. Road work matters but little in comparison to my life's work,' tho parson tried to explain. Tho foreman told tho religious worker the state was paying him to do road work and was not in clined to financo soul saving oper ations. Ho was advised to hlro a hall or join some religious group, and not to mix religion with tho pick and shovel. It took consider able argument boforo tho preacher, who was in dlro need of tho work, could be persuaded to pay atten tion to his labors without resort ing to sermons.
