ROSEBURG, OREGON,
MAKING TOOLS OF TOYS
RAY LITTIE, a voturan aviator who flew the first east
bound tvens-coiitinenlal air mail plane out of San Fran
cisco 111 1020, and who has been flying in that service ever
since, is Ketting very disillusioned about the business.of fly
ing. Aviation is a dandy calling, he says, except that it is
no longer thriving, It used to be dangerous and exciting;
now it is neither, und the pilot's chief trouble is the bore
dom that soMir.r or later settles upon him. We who are still
held to the ground do nut usually look at it that way. An
airplane, to us, is still a thing of wonder. The pilot belongs
to a. tribe thin is set apart from people of common chiy. The
race has not yet worn its wings long enough to take them
for'granted. Cut Littie and most experienced pilots, we
suspect, share his feelings finds that piloting an airplano
is just another job. It is too safe, too certain, too regular;
and because it is all of these things it has lost its kick.
"All of thin, at first glance, looks like nothing but the
casualxomment of a somewhat blase flyer. But it is really
a synliitoin of something very important. It means that the
airplane this strange, glittering new tool that mankind
has;betn fumbling with for two decades has at last been
about mastered. We are learning how to use it. In a very
short time the country at large will share Pilot Little's opin
ion .'about flying arid then we will be ready to go on and
tacklo comething eUc. During' the (last 25 years or so we
have developed a great many new tools'. Each, one has been
a sort of toy ul first. ; Littie by little, however, vq have dis
covered the ways in which they can make life freer and
richer; and as those discoveries come, the tools cease to be
toys and become important weapons in the fight to lift our
selvTcS into i broader and more open region of existence.
Wirluue not yet mastered them all. We have a great heap
of them airplanes, radios, moving pictures, new chemical
processes that can hit drudgery and poverty a death blow,
electrical appliances that can sot us free from small tasks
and petty annoyances; but we haven't yet found out how
to lise them to the best advantage. They still dazzle us.
Eventually we chal! master them all and take them for grant
ed. When that day comes we shall be able to transform our
daily life in a way wo never thought possible. So it is that
Pilijt Little's remarks art- more significant than that gallant
aviator dreams. They indicate that we are turning the air
plane from a toy into a tool. ' "

POEM FOR THE DAY
- By LOUIS ALBERT BANKS , ,
, JUNE i
Sweet month of June, we're glud you're heroj
We welcome you without a lean
Sometimes you grow a little warm,
But how delicious is your charm!
Your promised bemity is no pose.
For you produce the fragrant rose;
Your roses always take the prize,
Wave glow and warmth of sunny skies,
You distance all the rest in sun
And give more time for daylight fun.
1 sometimes think you slight the nights.
You take such vast excursion flights
In sunrise made of shining gold,
And evening twilight, seldom cold.
You give yourself to courting moods .
Mow sweet your loving interludes!
You are a famous month for brides
And long and tender moonlight tides.
You himst a world of uiange flowers
And floral hells 'hovo wedding bowers.
If through the world a vole we'd take,
I'm sure you'd win the wedding cake.
'Tis pretty clear, sweet month of June,
"Oh. Promise Mc's" you favorite tunc.
July can play a louder flule,
October wears more brilliant suit,
Hut you're the gayest of the year
And are the sweetest in your cheer.
Indeed, we'd give them all the sack
Before we'd shove you off the track.
So. June, hang up your hat and stay
You're welcome every single day.

Forms of Modern Persecution
Jer. 32:4-13.
BY WM. E. GILROY, D. D.
Edtor of The Congregationalism
Iu Ihee lossous, drawn from the
Prophecy of Jeremiah, wo have
already pointed out that the pro
phut who sincerely and faithfully
rebukes the wronys of his age,
even if he does so wilh a reluct
ance that only a sense of godly
duty can cumuier, und even 11 he
ir.moids at tf.e same nine the way
of i.g:it un.i it uih, inevitably be
comes denounced as a pessimist.
He li fortunate if In his ear
nestnets he does not provoke
great hostility against himself.
It was not :ong, as we have
seen, until the very peop:e, his
jv. u peopie, whom Jeremiah wab
seekln;; to h.elp cried out for his
death; mid it is interesting, also,
t-j note that it was those who
claliued lo be iu positions of au
thority aud influence, politically
and riliiiiously, who were fore
most in calling for the death of
this man uf real religion and ol
true patriotism.
Hero in our lefson the princes
of the cmintiy are crying out to
the king for the- death of the
ptophet. How ve! y modern and
related to our own day is the
very thing for which these princes
demand Jeremiah's death! They
claimed that Jeremiah was weak
enlng the hands of tho men of
w;;r, ar.il that h" was endanger
ing the safety of the nation.
Is not this precisely the charge
tht'.t hits recently been brought
uentnM some outstanding leaders
in the Christian lite of this coun
try, the people who occupy In our
day the place that Hip prophet oc
cupied in the ancient life of
Isiael?
World Peace
It would be unwise und 1 nan
prop: lute to bring Into this col
umn discission of the ultimate
and vet y difficult qeesf Ions that
relate to national defense and to

Above all. it v.oiild bo out of
plaei' to ronte into the area of
crti.iinvrsy between the apostles
of military "preparedness" and
those who go to the opposite ex

of nmresistnnce.
But It ought to 1k manifest to

LEAVE ROSEBUHG
FOB CONCERT FIELD
Miss Wanda Armour, who for
several years has delighted Rose
burg music lovers by her excellent
music as organist at the Liberty
and Antler theatres, is preparing
to leave Roseburg tor San Diego,
having secured a position there in
Lhe concert field. She will present
novelty organ and piano concerts
under the stage name of "Uypy
Vvonne, the Gypsy organist."
Mies Armour expresses hor re
gret in leaving Roseburg, for she
has rejected many attractive offers
in tlu past In order to continue
her residence here, but the installa
tion of the Vltaphone equipment
in the Iqcal theatre limits the field
for her work iu this locality, mak
ing it necessary to seek a larger
city with greater opportunities.
She states thai she will always con
sider Roseburg her home, and will
be one of the city's strongest boost
ers wherever she may go.
DeHpite the tact that ui. talking
moviue are making serious ... .o.icits
into the ranks of theatre musi
cians. Miss Armour believes that
they will make a great improve
ment in theatre programs, and de
clares that the local installation is
one of the best on the coasL, and iu
her departure givos a great deal of
oralse to the local management for
Lhe efforttmade to furnish Hose-
burg the best possible type of en
tertainment. TWO LAW PARTNERS

part of that injunction means as
much as the second.
Whatever we think about these
things, we can get some very in
teresting light upon the problems
and realities of our own age from
this qncient story or Jeremiah.
The real weakness of the time,
the thing that really endangered
the state and the thing that en
dangers states in the modern
world, Is seen quite clearly in the
breakdown of real government.
The king, who nominally ought
to havo represented the power of
the people, was a tool in the
hands of the princes.
When they cry for t'.u death of
Jeremiah, all he can do is to re
mind them that he is king only
in name, and that he cannot stand
out against their wishes, Thus it
was that Joreniiah was cast Into
a dungeon a dungeon so deep
that they lot hi mdown with cords,
and so foul and muddy that he
sank into the mire.
Retains Courage
Fortunately, there was one
man In the kingdom who had not
lost all sense of decency or cour
age. Let ns nole that he was a
servant and a black man. Hut .
this man, Khed melech. whose
soul was clean and whose will
was strong, spoke bodlv to th"
king on behalf nf Jeremiah and
agninst the princes. The king
who had yielder to the pr'neess
now yielded to his masterful ser
vant, and the Ethiopian went
with 30 men lo take Jeremiah out
of tho dungeon.
Llko most men In whom there
is such a fine association of th
coney with strength and courage,
there was in this can. Ehed
melech. a tniuh of gentleness and
courtesy Jeremiah had been let
i"n wi;a cords into the dun
geon. Prnhibly there cords had rut
painfully into his flesh, but now
in pulhng him mu n,ii3 thought
ful Ethiopian takes rags nnd cast
off garmems. and has Jeremiah
mil these under his nrmholes so
"'ey may protect him fr"ii
the tightening and cutting of the
cords Surely there is i
