And cries exulting unto Thee U Lord, thy will be done. When tyrant feet are trampling Upon the common meal. Thou dost not bid us bend and writhe Beneath the Iron heel. In Thv name we claim our right By sword, or tongue, or pen; And even the headsman's axe may flash Thy message unto men. Thy will, it bids the weak be strong. It bids the strong be lust: No lip to fawn, no hand to beg, No brow to seek the rust; Wherever man ODpresses man, Beneath Thy belovedj sun, O Lord, be there, Thine arm made bare, Thy highteous will he done.

AND Wildfire Story of a Horse in Color Snow at Diamond Lake Very Deep According to latest renorts from Diamond Lake, snow there Is much deeper than usual and of a greater water density than normal. The report came from Georee L. Howard manager of the Diamond Lake resort, to V. V. Harpham. suoervisor of the Umpqua National Forest. Howard wrote to Harpham that on his latest trio from Medford to the lake, he had walked over "eight feet of very loose snow; that is. three feet of loose snow hud fallen the day before." Six feet of snow was reported on the roofs of the Forest Serv ice guard station buildings. Greater water density in the snow. Harnham exnlained. means that it Dacks into ice more read ily and is less easilv melted. Stream levels are maintained. "Also It means that the mos quitoes will grow faster, bigger and more viporous, and will have longer bills," Harpham said. "Mosquitoes are alwavs more nu merous around snow brink."
