CAL ILNDLY MAIL this to some one with CANCER bbbbw mf M J sfn There has recently appeared la the local presa a Portland dispatch under the heading, "Country Schools in Bad Condition," which was based on a report made by Mrs. (Catherine. Kel- ley, traveling nurse ftfr the State Board of Health, after a trip of in spection through the schools of Doug las, Josephine and Jackson counties. The article stated that Mrs. Kelley found tba sanitary conditions in the schools very bad and that many cases o fimpetlgo or skin disease, j caused by filth, were found. In or der that the readers 'of that article may be fully informed of the condi tions found by Mrs. Kelley in Jack son county, I am giving below 'her detailed report on all schools visited In this county, which will show that j she did not find them in bad condi- j tion. Nearly all(the schools visited were reported clean, and only two cases of impetigo were reported, and one of these was not in a country school. In many instances the out houses were reported In bad condi tion, and this condition is bound to exist to a greater or less degree so long as the old style toilet is in vogue, though we are making an ef fort for improvement along this line. Below is the detailed report of Mrs. Kelley, as furnished me by the secretary of the State Board of Health: Anderson Creek School Pupils, 22; drinking tank and individual drinking cups; school very clean; houses in very bad shape. Wagner Creeit cnool Pupils, 24; impetigo, 1; school and ventilation very good; janitor service; pump and individnal cups.

"Ba sure tour tin will lad you out." Sum errs SS.tS. CHE Israelites, flushed with vic tory, proceeded with the con quest of Canunn. Spies were . sent to Ai. Returning, these advised that the place wns small, and that two or three thousand men would be quite sullldent for iU capture. They anticipated that their enemies would be so terror-stricken as to render little or no defense. But the experiences at Al were the reverse. Thirty-six Israelites were slain; und Israel's army, perceiv ing that they had not the Lord's favor, fled before their enemies. Joshua and the Elders of Israel were bewildered nt this defeat. They pros trated themselves before the Ark of the Covenant, bewailing the trouble. and espidiilly fearful of the influence of the del eat encouraging their en emies nikl discouraging Israel. The Accursed or Devoted Thing. In our Common Version, acevrxed has been used where derated would have been preferable. The Lord Informed Joshua that the Divine favor wns not with Israel because of their unfaithfulness. When Jericho wns captured, a portion of the spoils had been appropriated by a soldier. Accord ing to the Lord's arrangement all the spoil, were Brieaiiino Trouble, devoted in advance, hence this was a breach of their agreement, and Israel's army could have no blessing until the matter was rectified. That the lesson might Iks learned by all Israel, the Lord directed that the representatives of all the tribes appear before Hint, and lots be cast; that thus would he indicated the tribe o which the guilty one belonged, in like man ner the different families of that tribe were tested, and the family found, i Step by step the matter came down to I Achan. who was Indicated as guilty. J The penalty upon Achan was death by stoning, and after the storting the corpse was burned the burning Indi cating symbolically that there is no hope of a future life for any of the wil fully wicked during Messiah's Reign. Achan. as a member of Adam's family, must have a share with nil the race In the redemption provided by Jesus' death. As the Sodomites, redeemed by the merit of Jesus' sacritlce, will be nwak- eued. from deatli duriug the Millen nium, and their experiences be more tolerable than those of the people of Chorazlu and' Bethsaida, so it will surely be with Achan. Covetousness In Our Day. Perhaps never lias there been so much covetousness as today. How few comparatively would do very dif ferently from what Achan did! If all such were to be stoned to death and burned, the world would be one vast I funeral pyre. True, they ure not de terred by fear of any such punishment; nevertheless, a large proportion of them profess to believe that for all such sins the penalty Is eternal tor ture. Many who are ready to 'con demn Joshua's course In stoning Achan' are ready to believe that the Ood of all Grace, the Father of Mer cies, would do ten times worse by practically the entire human family. Alas, how twisted our minds have become! TTow glad wo are that the true light Is now shining aud chnsin? away our hobgoblins of false doctrine, handed down from the Dark Ages. Covetousness In the Consecrated. The term Christian today has a very wide application, und iu general sig nifies a civilized person. Hut It really belongs to a comparatively small class-those consecrated to be Jesus' footstep followers. These have entered the nntltjpical Ca naan, and are fighting the good fight. These The Penalty Heath by would recognize xtonin.j. lll0 sl)0ll8 0f warfare as consecrated to God. It is for these to inquire. Am 1 with holding any part of what I consecrat ed to God? If they are so doing, they are in danger, not only of exercising an injurious Influence upon others, but also of the fate typically illustrated in Achan's case the Second Death. "Covetousness, Which Is Idolatry." The Apostli declares that covetous ness is Idolatry. It puts first the thing .coveted; aud when this Is contrary to the Divine will, this attitude signifies that the coveted thing Is more desired than the Divine favor. Thus we see the world is full of idolatry. The idols most worshiped are wealth aud pleas ure. On the contrary, the true God, from whom comes every good and perfect j gift, receives but slight attention from I the masses of His creatures. Ills laws. Ills will, Ills pleasure and Ills favor are scarcely thought of. Vet wealth and pleasure, pursued on every hand, bring neither Joy nor pence. The worshipers of mammon and pleasure nre unhappy, discontented, and apparently grow ing more so. Man Is so constituted by nature that his finest and noblest sentiments, which bring hlin the most Joy and pence, are the exercise of his mind aud talents God ward.
