ALTOONA TRIBUNE, SATURDAY MORNING, AUGUST 3, 1940 SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON CHURCH SERVICES Eight Et Forty Delegation to Attend Salon Departmental pain. When Job, the good man, Imet with misfortune it was naturally concluded that God must be angry. The truth is that the only PERSONAL MENTION All Star Cast Appearing in Olympic Hit With Chester Morris, Anita Louise, Buck Jones and Ona Muliaon topping a cast of outstanding players, and with a story filled with swift action and thrilling drama, "Wagons Westward" had its Initial showing at the Olympic Theatre yesterday. Chester Morris plays the dual role of Tom Cook, and hit twin brother David, with aureness, fire and deep sincerity, portraying a cruel, sadistic killer, on the one hand, and a fine clean-cut Government officer on the other. The actor's transition from the easy-going character of David to the vicious, ruthless character of Tom is played with great conviction and will add many new admirers to his following.

Ona Munson appears ln one of the dramatic roles of her screen career as a dance hall entertainer who tries to protect her younger sister, (Anita Louise) from the wiles of outlaw Tom Cook. What happens when she meets David, disguised as his brother Tom, provides the highlight of the picture, and places Miss Munson In tho top brackets as a fine dramatto actress. The fragile beauty of Anita Louise in a tough, New Mexican dance-hall setting is an Interesting contrast. A new type of role for her, Miss Louise adds new laurels to her varsatllity In the role of Phyllis O'Conover, sweetheart of a man wanted for a hundred murders. Capable, convincing performances are also given by Buck Jones, as the cooked sheriff who is In league with Tom's outlaws and by George "Gabby" Hayes, as the uncle who tries to keep Tom straight.

Gulnn Williams, Douglas Fowley and Charles Stevens help to make "Wagons Westward" a 'must see' picture. JACK Late hours are not good for one. Ruth But fine for two. Milliners See Smart Season Ahead For Hats' NEW YORK The most extraordinary things are happening to crowns. They are bulging and puffing and swooping this way and that balloon-like affairs that even when pierced by a quill or stabbed by a feather refuse to collapse entirely.

Everything points to the hey-day of the milliner. And everything points to a comeback for trimmings, notably feathers, among which is the brilliant peacock feather. It's ostrich, however, that looks best to many women, for it can be curled and fashioned into multi-colored tiny hats such as they have been wearing, with feathers for f'owers. Have you heard thing about the revival of long ropes of pearls or other stones, or that earrings are one of the things you must wear since you will expose your ears to the curious public? Once upon a time, a very long time ago, women flung long chains over their heads and sometimes draped one around the throat before permitting it to fall to the waist or even below. It was a nice trick that helped make one look taller or slimmer or longer walsted, besides it was a decorative Idea and a good way to Introduce a note of cntrast to one's dress, all of which are sufficient reasons for the return of the long chain.

Ombre pearls, meaning shaded ones beige, brown, platinum and so on are among the different types. Firemen Summoned City fire companies 1, 5, 7, and truck responded last evening at 8:43 o'clock to an alarm from box 432 at Union and Sixth avenues, going to the home of Earl Mock at 609 Twenty-fifth street, where sparks were pouring from a chim-nejf, although no service was required. Firemen said burning garbage In the-furnace caused the sparks. prosperity which God guarantees is spiritual. God has promised that those who are true to him will never lose out, although we are not always sure, with our poor human vision, of just how God abiding love will be manifested.

Jesus of. Nazareth did the will of God. yet he was nailed to the cross to the dismay and despair of his disciples, who later came- to see that this was not a sign of God's disfavor but of his highest favor and a part of the plan to give their Master a nanw which should be aoove every name. We may differ, too, on our ideas of righteousness. The scribe and the Pharisee of Jtsus' day thought that they represented the highest form of righteousness, being al-i wavs readv to thank God that they were not as other men.

The sinner, too, may be wrongly labeled, for Jesus spent a great detJ of his time associating with sinners, so-called, who turned out to be great workers in his kingdom. When we take all the facts into consideration nothing is so clear i rr- as the conclusion that the good life is the happy life and that 1 wickedness leads to misery 00in in this world and in the next. "Virtue is its own Applied to the religious life this means that a good man is being rewarded bv being made better, not ricner or nei Deautirui. An aiuieic nsivo uw only reward the power to be a better athlete tomorrow than he was yesterday. If he makes a million dollars out of his athletics.

that doesn't make him a greater athlete. The man who made the Tarathon run famous was not spurred on by money but by patriotism. What does sin do to a man: A number of things. First it is degrading, it results in deteriora tion, weakens the body, the intellect and destroys life at the top. Those who have followed any particular sin find themselves undergoing a process of change.

A man who is too eager to get ahead finds his thrift turning to i greed. The more he gets ths more he wants. His soul grows smaller with every dollar added to his wealth until his heart is as hard as the gold over which he glcats. Colonel Roebuck sold out his holdings in a great business enterprise and lost his money in sundry business adventures, while his smarter partners went on in the way of wealth with accelerating success. At last reports Mr.

Roebuck was hale and hearty, happy without millions, while his wealthy partners were all dead. We are not trying to say that greed destroyed these men, but we are saying that the inordinate quest of gold destroys the body as well as the soul. From any standpoint, whether of health, wealth, happiness, i heaven or hell, the ways of right-' eousr.ess alone are worthy of him who would make the most of his life. There is no pleasure to be compared with that of feeling that we are doing the will of God and that our lives are approved of God. We may lose health and wealth, even our lives, but we shall have a peace in our hearts, a peace which passeth human un.

derstanding, which the tforld can neither give nor take away. The 1 sinner may gain everything, hi3 crops may flourish, his funds and friends multiply, but what are i they all worth if he has cut him- self off from the loving Father; Labor Day Horse Show Committees Are Announced THE TWO WAYS Scripture: Psalm Matthew 7: 24-S7 Memory Passage: The Lord know-eth the way of the righteous; But the way of the wicked shall perish. Ps. 1:6. Blessed is the man that walketh not iu the counsel of the wicked, Nor in the way of sinners, Nor sitteth in the seat of scoffers: 2 But his delight is in the law of Jehovah; And on his law doth he meditate day and night.

3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the streams of water, That bringeth forth its fruit in its season, Whcse leaf also doth not wither; whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. 4 The wicked are not so, But are like the chaff which the wind driveth away. 5 Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment. Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. 6 For Jehovah knoweth the way of the righteous; But the way of the wicked shall perish.

Psalm 1. 24 Every one therefore that heareth these Vords of mine, and doeth them, shall be likened unto a wise man, who built his house upon the rock; 25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house, and it fell not; for it was founded upon the rock. 26 And every one that heareth the.se words of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand: 27 and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and smote upon that house; and it fell; and great was the lall thereof. Matthew The Songs of Zion. Religion expresses itself readily in poetic forms, and the songs of Zion as we have them in the Psalms reveal both the holiness of beauty and the beauty of holiness.

In this great collection of sacred songs we find the whole life of the Hebrew people distilled. In it are all their hopes and fears, their triumphs and heir sorrows, the dreams of their prophets, the creeds of their theologians, and the rules of their lawmakers, as well as the yearnings of many an individual soul as he faced and reflected upon the tragedy of human life. Some of the songs of Zion are very and go back to the time of King David who was himself a poet. When the Jews were captives in Babylon they remembered Zion with tears (Psalm 137) ana were goaded to bitterness when the Babylonians tauntingly urged them to sing some of their famous but many of the congs were written after the exile when the life of the Jewish people centered mere about the "rebuilt in 616 B.C. tht book of Psalms as we have it is distinctly "the hymr.book of the recond It was also their "book of worship containing th? rlos.

responses, and choral chants to be sung at the many religious festivals of the Jewish church year." The songs of Zion are also prayers: their hymnal, like all hymnals, also a prayer book. All the great experiences of the sou! are to be found in these prayer-psa'ms remorse, despair, repentance, communion, aspiration, faith and urance. In this ancient hymr.book of the Jewish people there are special hymns and chants for coronations, dedications, processions and pilgrimages and. by way of contrast, in the Psalter are celebrated the tragic experiences of tlje nation's rxile. humiliation and continued persecution.

If you want to know the real life of a people, you must understand the songs born of joy and sorrow in the deep experiences of their souls. What the great prophet preached as a result of their tre. mer.dous experiences of God. born of their own and their people's tragedy, finds expression in the religious poems of a later time. In the writings of the prophets we see the great creative acts of the sou' wrestling with God.

while In the Psalms we have the essence the prrphet's new ideas reworked by the poet's and made available for the daily spiritual bread of the common man. As the poet takes the dreams and daring cf our ancestors and gives i tis a sorg, so the psalm writers cf ancient Israel captured, dis- tilled made available all that was bes in the long years of their history.
