William Carle Is Impressed by Aimee McPherson's Better Side German Ship S.O.S, London, Nov. 13. uV) A Reuters (Hritish news airencyl dispatch from Reykjavik. Ice laud, tonight said that the 8. 038 ton Gcrmnn steamer Puraiia had sent out an SOS reporting she was attacked by a British de stroyer. The account received no immediate verification from the admiralty. Closing time for loo una to Clas ly Ads is 1:30 p m To the Editor: I have been in L. A. visiting my nephew, Clarence Carle, and have spent parts of three days at Angclus Temple. 1 had form ed a very unfavorable opinion of its founder from what I had seen of the fruits of her teach ing in Oregon, and was anxious to find the data for a correct judgment of her work. In my wanderings of the past two years, since leaving Oregon I have visited pretty nearly everything which calls itself Christian, including Catholic, Christian Science and Mormon ism. It is decidedly interest ing to see the various modes by which people seek to express their worship of the Creator. As to Mrs. McPlierson, my nephew, who has been a carpenter for ninny years In Los Angeles, speaks welt of the work she does, but allows she has done some very foolish things aa well. But he suggests that It Is not strange that she mlht be led Into such things as a consequence of the great public applause which haa come to her. And I remembered that so Godly a man aa the Sweet Singer of Israel can be truly charged with some deeds quite foolish and otlwrs decidedly wicked. So perhnps tt Is proper to Judge Aimee by her better side rather thnn wholly by the poorer side. I have often thought that If t had had much of the popular npplnu. In my younger days It would have b?en the ruin of my lite spiritually. And I often thnnk God for saving me from that applause. If any reader thinks he haa a bet tor doctrine to preach than the Pour Square-or any other a word Klvon me by a professor In Brlchnm Young university, Provo. Utah (Mor mon). Is worthy of consideration: Let all such persons manifest their superior faith by a superior life Clarence snys that the Four Square la certainly doing a lot of good of which he la witness. They have a Iiuks building of beautiful ttealgn of which most any minister would feel proud to have been the originator. It sents 5.300 with the two galleries. I was present at the Sabbath service, the Simdny school brxlnnlnt; at 8:15 and the worship closing at 12:15: lots ot mu sic by orchestras and between two making one continuous service. There are services at almost every hour every day ot the week. I have been at several and to me It seemed that a iaiye part of these consist of every one stretching his hands heaven, ward and each -i, trying to shout louder than any other. At one meet ing. with nearly 1 000 present. It would require a very g,W oar to "ear a pm drop at a dlMunce of several hundred feet as I heard In the Mormon Tabernacle at Salt Ijike C'lly. I have not seen Almee ns she Is away but Is due to return Unlay. I JutK-e a Inrve crowd will meet her. TUoy are t.iklns down the two broadcasting towers from the nvt Slid replacing with a single shnlt. I saw two men add the last section which completed the height of 325 feet above the ground. I did not envy them the Job. I loavo today, making some short stops along the way, and expect to be at my homestead at Twenty-nine Palms some time next week. I have been engaged for some months on a study of The Resur rection, and have been discussing with the one only book publisher here the possibility of putting It on the market. lie made me a pretty good offer, better than many will offer to an unknown author, and I am 'lopeful It can be accomplished. I have also investigated the possi bilities of a new method of cover ing, substituting for the usual cloth and thread an Idea I have gathered In my wanderings. It eliminates both cloth and thread giving a well nigh Indestructible cover and a book which will open Jierfectly flat. All through, my wanderings J have given my address as Lake Creek, Ore., but suppose I must sign my name as Wm. M. Carle. 20 Pnlms, Cal.. Nov. 3. P. 8.: Los Angeles paper has Just reported the desert ns full of wild flowers, very unusual at this senson. I must take it as a good omen to welcomo me buck. FORMER L. S. U.
