by a mob ; Imt the spirit ol Savonarola
is still in the world,
1 have cited this incident to show you
the fundamental idea in the reformation
of a city, and now am ready to an­
nounce niy text : Matt, 28:18. From
this text I announce this truth : Christ
is King of Tillamook. The claim ol
righteousness upon this city is absolute­
ly imperative and authoritative. Richter
said of Christ : "He lifted with his
pierced hands empties off their hinges,
turned the stream of history out of its
channel and still governs the ages.’’ Is
that true ? Where are Egypt, Chaldea,
Greece ar.d Rome ? They were universal
empires und He lifted them off their
hinges. Did He turn the stream of cen­
turies out of its channel ? When did the
world begin to write A. D. ? What does
that mean ? It means that we are do­
ing business on that man's name to day.
The note yon have, the check you draw,
the deed you hold are not worth the
paper they nre written on unless they
bear that man's birth date. Does he
still,'govern the ages ? In Messina before
the recent earthquake there were many
freethinkers. A new paper called The
Future had just been started
The edi­
tor devoted a violent editorial against
Christianity, and addressed God in these
words I "If you are not an impotent
fool, send us an earthquake to prove
that you exist.” That night the city
was destroyed. A young lawyer who
was an infidel, going west to settle for
life, made his boast that he would lo­
cate in some place where there were no
churches, Sunday Schools nor Bibles. He
found such a place. But before the year
was up he wrote toa former class-mate,
a young minister, begging him to come
and bring plenty of bibles, and preach
and start a Sunday school, "For'', said
he, "I have become convinced that a
place without Christians and Sunday
Schools and churches is too much like
hell for any living man in which to
stay.” Theonly thing that makes it sale
for you folks to stay in this town is the
fact that Christ has here n little foot­
hold.
His rightful place is in the city office».

Charles Dickens
Charles Dickens ¡was horn at Land
port, Portsmouth, in England, on
Feb. 7th, 1812. His mother taught him
while he was young. Later his father
moved to Kent, and Charles attended
school only a few months. His father
was very poor and after moving around
a great deal in London, he was finally
put in the debtor’s prison. Charles was
but ten years old, but never the-less. he
had to work. He was very sensative
and in after years he could not refer to
this bitter life without shedding tears.
In 1824, Dickens went to school two
more years; after this he decided to fol­
low his father’s example fand be a par­
liamentary reporter. While he reported
for different magazines, he also wrote
short articles for the paper. The best
was '' Dinner at Poplar Walk.” Otheis
were “ Nicholas ¡Nicklesby” and “ Old
Curiosity Shop.’’
In 1841. his life became restless, so he
decided to „travel.
Firn he visited
Edinburg, then he went to America. He
did not like America, as will be seen by
his •'American Notes*’ and “ Martin
Chozzlewit.” The next four years were
spent in Italy, France and Switzerland.
While he was there he wrote his Christ­
mas series of “ Christmas Carols,
‘’Chimes” and “ Cricket on the Hearth.”
About 1850 lie published ¡his greatest
works of which “ David Copperfield”
was the best. “A Tale of T wo Cities,"
“ Child’s History of England,” and
“ Great Expectations” were otheis of his
best books. The later part of his life
was spent in public reading. He earned
ninety thousand dollars on eighty read­
ings, but they were hard earned, for his
health was completely broken down,
but for all his sickness he still wrote on
Dickens had an intense histrionic
interest, and. it'lwas only bv accident
that he became a novelist, instead of an
actor. He patronized plays and players
all his life, and even wrote twelve plays.
Some of his greatest friends were
Thackeray, Macready and Carlyle.
He died June 9th, 1870.
