Conception Of Cod Topic of Nazarene Evangel's Sermon Before an attentive congregation. the poet -evangelist, Lon Wood rum. preached last night at the Church of tha Nazarene on "God Sitting on the Curbstone." 'A persona conception of Ood col ors hi whole religious life," Mr. , Wood rum said. "However one writes his creed, his actual life will corres pond with his mental Idea of dlety. The ancient pagans who gave their children to the fiery clutch of Mo lock, worshipped a sadistic god, men tally. The fanatics who laehed the Quakers across the Boston commons served a god, who. In their minds, was an unspeakable tyrant. The true christian conception of God Is given In the first chapter of Isaiah's poetry. Firat, God la mighty. lifted up higher than the heavenes above the earth. Again, He la holy. But God la more. He la condescend ing in mercy. He la like a father. The noblest character ever seen on earth, Jeaus Christ, said, 'He hath seen me hath seen the Father.' Thus, through the Galilean, de discover God. "Figuratively speaking, God In the person of Jesus, came and sat on the curbstone of life, putting out a hand to smashed humanity. That was re ligion at Its beet. May that Idea and ideal of religion never die" The evangelist speaks tonight on. "Do We Mean Business." Bazaar nncl Pinner Planned for Friday.

IN SPENDING SEEN BY PLANET GAZER This is an astrologer's bill of fare for December: Stimulation for business In all common commodities; severe storms with snow and sleet; spending of much money for Jewelry and the finest of silks and furs, the spending to become reckless in the last few days before Christmas. New outbreaks ot mob violence; In crease In gambling In all Its aspects; necessity of parents guarding their children more closely against kid naping; difficulty In government fi nance: the looming of something per taining to labor trouble among white collar employes; Borne large deals in mining and real estate. These predictions were maoe oy Claudius Maack. an astrologer now In Medford. after a devout scanning of the natal chart. Mr. Maack made the predlctlona about December fogs, the possible coming of Santa Claus. a probable influx of bills Im mediately after Christmas, a possible drop In temperature or the need of wearing heavier clothes. Mr. Maack made no rash predlC' tlons. He carefully measured the an. tics of the planets before making his forecasts. Here Is a sample of how an astrologer attains his astonishing foresight: "December brings a slightly good aspect of the moon to Its own place In the natal chart. This Is a tavor- able Indication for the good of the general public. This will tend to stimulate business In all common commodities. Tho planet Mercury transits to an adverse aspect to Sat urn In the natal chart. This aspect is completed about the middle of the month when Mercury becomea retro grade. This suggests very severo storms, with snow qnd sleet.' 1 audience when presented by the Medford Club of Zonta Internation al Tuesday evenl ig at the high school auditorium.

Perry Mo Arthur, pastor-evangelist at the Main Street Methodist church used for nia subject, "The Beacon Light." He showed importance of a Christian letting his Christian life be a beacon to those not so fortunate as those who enjoy the presence and blessing of the spirit of Christ. The evangelist stated that "If a Christian man does not keep nls Christian spirit and falls to let nls llsht shine for the Kingdom of uoa. that some one who has been looking to this man with a high degree ol confidence In his spiritual Integrity, will become discouraged and sutler a severe disappointment at the rail- ure of auch a character. That Instead of turning to Ood In his hour ol need and distress he may turn to the things of the world to aatlsty the longings of the heart." Mr. McArthur Illustrated the ne. cesslty for shining to guide some lost one by telling of being lost at night In his own plane out of Oklahoma City and wandering around over the hilly terrain with hope almost gone, with a slightly missing engine ana no compass nor stars to guide. Fi nally the beacon light 60 miles away was picked up and by the aid o: this beacon managed to reach port safely. A goodly number of people heard the 6:45 p.m. accordion concert with great pleasure and appreciation. This Is a nightly feature of the service, WITH TYPE OF WHEAT WHICH BROUGT TITLE Commenting on a atory appearing In The Mall Tribune Monday re. gardlng the world'a wheat champion ship won by Gordon Olbson of Lad ner, B.
