Struggle
Sometimes we ure given the im-
pression that goodness won easy
for Christ, that it came to Him
without any struggle. If this were
ihe ea.se, Ilis example would have
no value or appeui for us. We run
not understand or intitule a char-
acter who has not been tempted.
As someone has said, ‘An uutempt-
ed Christ wou\d be outside our
moral world altogether.”
But one of the deep appeuls of
the life of Christ is that He was
tempted, ilis eharueter is the more
wouderful bcoause it i\a* won
through effort and struggle. lie
had all the temptations which we
have* and more. One of tin* New
Testament writers said of Him:
“We have not a high priest that,
eantiot be touched with the feeling
of pttr infirmities; but one that
hath been in all i>oiuts tempted
like as'we are, yet without sin.”
At the very beginning df
minis try He was tem pt«*d. He was
offered alluring rewards if lie
w^uld give up His mission for
$0d. When lie resisted this
temptation we are told that the
davit “departed for a season.” It
sp* not forever, but. fur “A Scu-

'sical vigor declines. One writer
<esp$uued the recent defeat of
Dempsey by tlie fact that lie ha>
Vtpltced his early life un the rail-
road, and out-of-doors with life in
hoteiji, iu silk bath-rube* and
lounging slippers. Without Hard-
ship his strength has decreased.
Moral strength is born iu the
same* way. Every virtue is l*orn
through struggle against some
1 weakness. Courage is the result of
a struggle against cowardice*
Uheerfulneeu is a defeat of mel-
ancholy. Kiudnes* comes from tie-
struggle with unkindness and
meaunesa. Charity and forgiveness
are victories over hatred and re-
venge, Just as we hail any victor
who returns from his struggle with
an enemy, to we hail tlmse victor-
ies won in the struggle for cliar-
neter.

The dinger today is that life
may become too easy and there
will be no struggle. Men are suff-
ering physically because automo-
biles and other comforts have rob-
bed them of exercise* and certain
valuable hardships. They are suf-
fering morally because They arc
satisfied with comfortable, conven-
tional goodness. They don't at-
tempt hard tilings. They try to

Did you ever hear of such a race?
Friday's count, the results of which
appears elsewhere In this paper,
shows more than ever the 'closeness
oftlbe race which the aspiring and am-
bitions workers are staging in the
Record's big Salesmanship Campaign.
The three leaders are still neck
and neck and any one of them may
Ilis Sic overtaken and passed by just the
least extra effort on the part of some,
other good sprinter.
Sensations Begin To Come
The sudden and sensational gains
made hv some of those further down
the tin*; have rendered the posi-
tions of the haders doubly insecure.
Miss Hcntley. Mrs. Semmler and
Miss Pecenka, who follow the lead-
ers la the order named, have been
doing some good work and any of
those three could easily. Oh. so eas-
ily, ettiwd one of the present leaders

Mrs. Semmler have good followings

Others So Close Behind ,
Than there are Miss Agne3 Hurt
and Mr. Hugo Holder who are grad-
ually reaching the point where they
will also be dangerous contenders furjfv
the real honors of the campaign.
Mr. Koenig. Miss Howard and Mrs.
Wanson hare all made good reports
during the past week and Miss
Iluschhaupt is still busy in her lec-
tion of the circulation territory.
All inactive workers have been re-
moved from the list and it is not ex-
pected that any more names will be
taken from the list as from all Indi-
cations. all whose names appear In

’ Just One More Week
Just one more week of the big

that workers will show such persist-
ence during tin- coming week.
If you have a favorite in the cam-
paign, do not ask her to call on you
later as it is th'- results obtained this
week that are going ,to count most
and every hour, every minute is valu-
able. Rather than ask your favorite
to-call at some other time, it would
be more helpful if you would take
your subscription to the Record office
yourself and cast yOur votes there.

DE LA HUERTA IS
KILLED FRIDAY
The C'uero High School Cobblers
and the St. Joseph Fliers of Victoria,
fought out a 0 to 0 mud battle on the
Frobese Park "gridiron Friday after-
noon, the major part, of the game be-
ing played in a drizzling rain.
Playing on a rain soaked field, neith-
er team was able to display much
football. Coach Zimmerman started
his second team against the Fliers,
and although they showed more spirit
and light than ha* been dlsplaytjj on
the local gridirqn this season, tliey
were unable to halt the husky Fliers
who made long gains on sweeping
end runs. Herring, etd. and “Hinky".
Engbrock, fighting second siring
quarter, showed up well on the second
string team. .Hinky was tackling low,
and getting his man.
After the Fliers had carried the
ball down, the field for three v first
downs Coach Zlmmcjrman sent in his
first string, who halted the Fliors in
their tracks. ■ ’ <
Krone this point to the ond of the
game the Gobblers outplayed 1hc
Filers making six first downs tn the
Filers due. On several occasions a
back plunged through
and with mppctr‘
would slip in the nmd ad faH
Arnold. Gobbler back rammed
'Victoria line for gain after gaio.
Franz, panting and passing for tlic
Gabblers, .got off *oino gdbd pants,
considering the fact that the be|J was
heavy and slippery, and tossed his
passes for forty five yanjs, the re-
ceiver being unable to hold them on
two occasions due to the wet ball.
Howerton played his usual game,
making good gains around the end*,
and plunging the Flier .for substiatial
yardage.
Nami, Edgar, and Wayne, starred
on the line, although they |^d little
on the rest of the Gobbler wall men.
The Cuero line wa3 impregnlble. not
more than ten yards being made
through the Gobbler line throughout
the game. A
There was no individual star ou t(lp
Victoria team. The squad worked as
one man, and displayed some of the
best interference running see* on the
Cuero field iu many years. Although
they were clearly outclassed by the
Gobblers, they put up a game fight,
agd were in the fray from whistle to
shot. ' L.'
The Gobblers hhve a hard fight
ahead of them next Thursday when
they meet Runge High School in
Jorktown, during the Yorktown fair.

1L F. Meyer, chief ff tfcn Caere Fire
Departmenl, lias mapped «ot extensive
^ TiTafi* for the proper lU.I "ttusrrenew
of Fire Prevention Week, Oct. *th to
15th. Following the issuance ef tbs
Mayor's proclamation which calls on
the citizeus to co-operatc in the
movement' Chief Hcyer conferred
with school heads, ministers of the
churches, and representatives of
civic organizations to outline n pro-
gfam for the week.
As an appropriate beginning for the
opening of the week In Cuero, the
ministers of the various churches
have consented to devote several min-
utes to short talks on Fire Prevention
following the sermon on Sunday morn-
ing. During the week, programs will
be presented at all the schools which
will emphasize facts to show the
importance of the movement. Accord-
ing to Chief Heyer speakers will
probably appear on these program^.
Civic clubs have also expressed
their willingness to co-operate with
the Fire Chief by stressing Fire Facts
in their programs for the week. H. B.
Montgomery, county superintended
of schools will send circular letters tc
the rural schools asking that some
time be set aside to the observance of
the week. '
In commenting on the importance
of “bringing home" to the peopla the
great fire loss in America in,the last
few years and the immense waste
therefrom. Chief Heyer pointa ont
that the property loss for 1S26 was
$560,548,024 vjhile 10.000 persons sere
burned to death in America and 20.000
were injured by fire. Statistics prove,
lie said, that 85% of the fires we
have are preventable. Matches, cigars,
cigarettes and other “smokes” started
fires causing a loss of $37,880. De-
fective flues ami chimneys were re-
sponsible for $27,082,000; while
stoves, furnaces, boilers and their
pipes caused a loss of $25,520,000.
Spontaneous ignition caqsed fire loss
of $21,739,000, which could ha.ve been
prevented by not allowing oily rags
to aceumuiate and by keeping oil
mops- in metal boxes.
