I i I EMPLOYES MUST BE COURTEOUS, IS ORDERS E. H. Harrlman believes In courtesy between employes of his roads, and between employes and patrons. Gen eral Manager J. P. O'Brien, of the Harrlman lines In Oregon, Is sending out courtesy instructions to all em ployes, both low and high. ' . . The circular says: To Employes on the Line: Courtesy costs nothing and yields large returns. Cordial relations with customers are an asset. You Increase this property's value (to owners and patrons, as well as the value of your service, by making friends. Rules necessary In a business so complex cause less dissatisfaction than unfortunate methods of enforcement. Your training renders familiar mat ters not understood by the public, and Inquiries are entitled to prompt, cour teous and complete replies.- If some thing seems at fault beyond your power to correct, explain how and through whom to see kthe remedy. Manner outweighs words. The sales man of transportation should make his customers as welcome as would any buslnes man, Inspiring the wish to come again. To General Office and Division Em ployees: Above equally applies, and, remem ber your duties concern one depart ment, where you should be expert, while the "boys out on the line" deal with requirements of all departments. Courtesy between and among you re flects credit on all, rendering easier and pleasanter the task of each. S( ADD G SENDS OUI PASTORAL WOOD & COAL In quantities to suit Warehouse Storage Truck and Transfer : i ! G. El FOWLER . Phone Main 10 j Charles Scudding, bishop of all Ore- gongon for the Episcopal faith, has Issued a bishop's Lenten pastoral that might well be entitled a gem. Today in commemoration of Ash Wednesday, the pastoral was read to all oongre- trnllorm of the Krdscorml churches in Oregon. The Observer Is indebted to Bishop Scndding for a copy of the pastoral: Oregon Is not nn Irreligious country, but the relligous life Is lacking in quality. As a watchman set upon the wall It Is my duty to sound the note of warning against religious apathy, Indifference, the spirit of Impiety evi denced in lack of attendance on the part of many at public worship, the dull spiritual inertia of many, making them mere loiterers around the bar racks who In baptism were enlisted to f iulit manfully under Christ's banner, and a practical maternallsm which dis believes Ihe teachings or Christ. It would be easy, and in keeping with the spirit of the age, to say these things 'are but mere figments of the imagination, that being evil they do Dtil exist, nnil to cry "peace, peace": but the word of the Lord to Kzeklel lings in my ears: "I have made thee a watchman: ther fore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me." Oregon is 'developing rap idly on commercial and material lines; its resources, so lately undeveloped at present, are enormous: iind are at rtio'tiu,' th. Minimis .f s-itlors in whom the struggle for existence demand an attention 1.) material, earthly thing? of time :n..l si use which tends to iljill the realization of etern.il realities. In all its foims sin im ins a misconcep tion of the proportion .if tilings. It is this w hi!i con. 1 mas so severely the e.is -gou;C t.fllo:e wilivh is t'ieii" of grosser fal's, yet never fastens on life's secret. It is the in ef miscon ception, of mistlii oi tion. of w rong perspective. Kound Mini above tis thf ereat work of Cod moves, presses for ward, and strains to its fulfilment Eternal issues are at stake; voices csH us to the work; angels reach out helping hands; the Holy Spirit urges, beseeches. Invites. And what are we about? What fleeting Interests occu py our attention? On what contemp tlble littleness Is our desire set? What folly It all Is! Lost and busy In the thick of occupations that can have no Issue, no fruit hereafter, we are In danger of becoming blind to the glory of our eternal destiny In Christ Jesus. Against us, as inevitubly as against him who of old saw nothing to do here but to build barns and lay up earthly treasures. It Is God Himself who ut ters the sentence, "Thou fool; how can It profit a man to gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?" To rescue the soul from this loss, to re lease it, to recover It, to pluck it out of the snare, to open a passage by which It may escape Into air and light and freedom, to save ourselves from making a fatal miscalculation that Is our Lenten work. That is worth a little pains, a little discipline. It can be done by the power and grace of God. We have no means of knowing what Jesus would iio were He here In Oregon and In this age. We know very well what he has told to us to do if we hve ears to hear. Jesus said: "If any man will come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily and follow Me." God grant that we may all cherish during this Lenten season each opportunity of fered In the frequent services of Un church, to get right perspective of life, to see eternal things, to hear the voice of Hod and not only the din of the world, and to renew and strengthen our Christian character. Affectionately, your bishop and fel low servant In the Lord, CHARLES SCADD1XG. Hishop of Oregon.
