"For He Had Great Possessions,' by Dorothy Clark Wilson, will be presented by the young people of the local corps of the Salvation Army tomorrow evening as & feature of the 16th annual young people's congress of southern Oregon. Miss Wtlson Is the author of "The Lost Star," "They That Sit In Dark ness" and many other well known rellgous plays. '"For He Had Great Possessions" is a play in one act. with five scenes, and presents the legendary story of the life of the rich young ruler who came to Christ Inquiring the way of eternal life and who. upon being told by CTirlst to go and sell all that he possessed end give to the poor, turned away sorrowful. The legend shows that after his rejection of Christ he returns to his home In the city of Jericho only to find that his only son, Azor, a boy of eight and the treasure of his father's heart, had been 'killed ih an accident. Darkness surrounds him until his beautiful young wife. Asenath, suggests that Jesus of Nazareth could help tbem and she urges her husband, Ben Azel, to go and bring Christ to their home for, having heard that He had raised Lazarus of Bethany to life after he bad lain four days In the grave, she believes that He has the power to restore their son to life. Ben Azel, remembering his recent rejection of the Christ, feels that he cannot now call upon the Galilean for assistance. His wife reminds him of the Gnll .lean's willingness to forgive and per suades Mm to go to Jerusalem In search of Jesus. He goes, only to ar rive In time to witnesa the crucifix Ion. He returns, feeling that all Is darkness but. while be Is telling Ase nath the hopelessness of his Journey, a messenger comes bringing the gl-td tidings that Cbrlst Is risen from the grave. They slowly come to the real ization that, as JesuBt Is risen from the dead, so thir son, Azor, too, shall live again. Captain Durham will play the part of Ben Azel, the rich young ruler; Mrs. Mary Bell takes tbe part of Asenath, the wife of Ben Azel; Cbarles McQonagle plays Zacchaeuc. tax collector of Jericho; Evan ' Oay plays Nason, steward of Ben Azel; Jaul Wilcox Is Blind Bar Tlmaeus; Mrs. g'aptaln Durham plays the part of Hadassah, daughter of Bar Tim aeus; Eldora Roberts and Mrs. Dlannn Meyer are handmaids of Asenath; Josephine Roberts plays the part of Azor, eight-year-old son of Ben Azel and Asenath.

There ts nothing experimental about the Packard 120 or the Pack ard six, according to Mr. Ashcraft. He saya: "The 130 grew out of the exper ience of the larger Packard which for years have given their owners tbr ' double value of sustained styling and advanced engineering. The six quite naturally follows the same pattern of the Packard 120 which has so successfully demonstrated it ability to enter and command a lower price market." Hospital- Aid I'rged.
