"THE United States census bu ll reau, having completed the " big task of determining the num- - bcr of people in our country--. 2 and having duly announced the figure, Is now plowing up Intcr- cstlng bits of Information glean- cd from the mountains of reports turned in by enumerators cm- ployed In the 1940 tally. Z For example, the bureau says that in 50 years the population Z of the United States has more than doubled. The census of 18U0 Z enumerated 02,017,711 persons, Z while the 1040 count was 131 ,fiU9,- 275. If the same rate could be maintained for the next 50 years, Z the population of the U. S. in - 1990 would be In excess of 275 Z million. Hut, says the census bureau, " the quota limits for immigration Z and the sharply declining birth m rate are factors which have completely altered the trend. Present factors now indicate a Z maximum U. S. population or up " proximately 150 million In Ihe Z decade of 1070 to 19S0, and, lift- - cr that, a slight tapering off. Z Along about 11180, however, u " great many of us will no longer - be so very much interested in what happens. Predictions of - this character are not so valu Z able. There was the Iheory ad- - vanccd some years ago that by 1 1950 the world would be - crowded that the combined popu- Z lation could not produce enough Z food to support itself. Apparent- Z ly that will not come true. Then " there was the man who predicted in 1005 that there would he no Z saw-timber left in the nation In 25 years. Very few really long range predictions have come true cepl of course, a few that were rated at the time as being so hopelessly absurd that the pre dictors were held up to ridicule and considered eruy. For ex- I cmplc, not even a lunatic 100 ' veins ago would have asserted that some day we would lie uhle I ... ,.i,.u ., ,.f ii. air iih a iitlle gadget anyone could buy for $(..!):. and up. And the man who vlsioned men boating under Ihe surface of the sea and flying through the air, had the good grace to label as fiction his writ ings on the subject. As a matter of cold fact Ihe period of time, looking into the future, about which any predic tion may be made with reason able accuracy on any subject Is now limited to a week or at most, ten days. This statement, however, does not apply to pre dictions concerning the war. Ten hours is a long look Into the fu ture for that subject. The census bureau h is also unearthed the rather startling and somewhat discouraging tact that only enough ducks are l. us ed to permit each t'. S. family to eat a duck every throe years. Mayor Young says according to that he liclicves sonic Koseburg families me iilmut 138 years ahead of a normal duck eating schedule. He speaks with author ity because lie raises (lucks.

World war No. 1 was fought (we were loldl lo make Ihe world safe for democracy. Some, where u cug slipin'd. TPIIE war today Is In a lull, but don't let it fool you. The lull wun t lost long, 'lite nc.l stoiin is merely GATHERING. It won't be long in break ing. I JNI.KSS n miracle happens, the result of the breaking of the next storm will be the driv ing of the British out of the Medi terranean. Their hold is badly shaken already. But the battle of the Mediter ranean won't be the LAST battle. The last battle will be fought when the morale or the resources (or both) of one side or the other are gone. IiN our own - country, peppery Senator Pepper wants us to get tough. ' In cooperation with Great Britain, he says In a speech In the senate, we should occupy Greenland, Iceland, the Azores, Cape Verde and Canary islands, S1NGAPOKE AND DAKAR. We should supply American bomb ers and volunteer American fliers to China, he thinks, and the U. S. and British navies should Join in the Pacific to "shut up the Japanese fleet In Us lair." He adds: "A FEW bombers flown by American pilots wouldn't leave enough of Tokyo to build a bon fire." CINE, senator, if that's what we have to do under our com mitments. But let's not talk about A FEW BOMBERS and a short and easy war. When we start shnoling, the war that will follow will he long and hard. Short and easy wars have been TALKED since history began but seldom have happened. TALK of paralyzing the enemy 1 with a few bombers is mere- Iv wishful thinklne. and when one is starting Into a war wish. , . , . . i fill thinking is an extremely bad ; habit. i Church Holds Its Annual Meeting A large congregalion gathered nt the Baptist church Wednes-! day evening for the annual meet-1 lug anil fellowship supper. 1 Secial music was furnished j for the occasion hy a ladies' trio i consisting of Mi s.

EDWARDS Faith 0 would thou chooscst not the better part! It is not wisdom to be only wise. And on the inward vision close the eyes. But it is wisdom to believe the heart. Columbus found a world and had no chart. Save one that faith deciphered in the skies; To trust the soul's Invinsible surmise Was all his science and his only art. Our knowledge is a torch of smoky pine That lights the pathway but one step ahead Across a void of mystery :uid dread, Bid, then, the tender light of faith to shine By which e'one the mortal heart is led Unto the thinking of the thought divine.

Now faith is a well-grounded assurance of that for which we hope, and a conviction of the reality of things which we do not see, and without lailh we cannot win the ap proval of God.
