EDWARDS The kind of Clod n man wor ships makes nil the difference In thn world. In our time men have been turning away from the one Immanent transcendent lird of the whole universe to such tribal gods as the class, the race, or ihe deified indi vidual. The Supreme Being i-o cognized In some quarters to day Is a god of "blood and soil." The disastrous results of this background trend In religion urn obvious to all who have eyes to see. A tribal god al ways leads to war disquietude. A universal god always leads to peace in ihe soul and good will among men. But the term god means even more than that to the Christian. It means an ever-present source of help. Sal vation Is u delicate blending of high thinking, right living and divine grace. Divine grace en ables ns to think clearly, to live nobly, to set the Ixud always before us. Aien nnd nut tons can be no better than their con cept of Cod und or the meaning of life. Thou must be true thy self, If thou, the truth would tench. Thy soul must overflow if llioii another soul wouldst reach. It takes the overflow of heart, lo give ihe lips full speeeh. Amen.

Competition Is greater today than It was a few years ago and the small high school is at a disadvan tage in offering the student the necessary training which will best fit him to compete with those who have had the advantages offered by belter organizations. Oregon was Known through thn nation at. one lime for Its advance In offering high hcIiioI education to boys and girls In every locality, this came about from many small schools having been organized, but today many of these schools have nerved (heir original purpose and with better facilities available through consolidation nnd modern means of communication a great improvement will result from more combining. The wejl equipped rural high school when supplied with n rea sonable number of students can offer these boys and girls a better cducatVm for their pur pones than can the city system. In consider ing necessary offerings the follow ing may be mentioned: Smith Hughes course in agiiculturo as well as home making, together with efficient business courses. It is practically Impossible for this ser vice without m,ore attention being given to some high school con soli dallon. .
