The spirit of the lowly Nasarene who
says in the good book, "Charity euffer
ctli long and is kind; charity envieth
not; charity vauntcth not itself, is not
puffed up," is being exemplified in deed
and in truth In the mission of the Pis
gah Home a Christian refyge where
any and all fallen men. young -or old;
sick or well, sober or intoxicated: em
ployed or unemployed; with or without
funds, are received, sheltered, warmed,
nurned and fed, and no questions asked.
Pisgah Home Is conducted along the
most economical and humble lines. A
lice of bread, a bit of fruit or vegeta
ble or even a little patch which
may be used in the making of a com
forter, is never wasted. It is by this
strict utilization of everything possible,
the cooperation of the men of the home
and the voluntary support of those In
terested in it that it manages to carry
On Its work.
"The home ha no wealthy or influ
ential patrons or directors; It gives no
benefit entertainments but by its good
deeds it is becoming known. Many
hearts have been touolied by notices con
cerning its activities which have ap
peared in The Journal from tlm to
time "and so the Lord seems to pro
vide in his own good way," said Mrs.
Hattle B. -Lawrencey or "Mother" Law
rence as she is affectionately called,
rind the Spark.
"Of course we do not expect luxur
ies," continued Mrs. Lawrence, who is
the general superintendent of the home.
"We try to provide plenty of good, clean,
wholesome food In the way of bread,
soups, stews, vegetables and fruits. Tea
and coffee, both-of which we regard as
stimulants, are not allowed and meat is
served only as a special treat. The men
do all the work about the house, cook
ing and sitf-ving the meals, keeping the
house ceai making the beds, yes and
even making the bedding, fot you would
be surprised to see what nice comforters
they piece and put 'together. We have
a good many patches given us and they
are all made use- Of. Then we dye flour
sacks for the linings, but sometimes we
have some difficulty getting the cotton
for the filling for we have to buy that
outright' and we have so little money.
The people who support the home are
people In moderate circumstances, some
of the men who come to us afe not in
condition to iwork, others can't get work
and the rule of the home is to accept
only half of the man's earnings in case
he is working. Sometimes I don't even
take that, if I am not in immediate
need of it an if I feel sure the man
has some good use for It.
"Our real aim In this work sis to
start- men on the upward road and the
shelter and food are tony incidental to
that greater work of leading them to
Christ or at least pointing them to the
pathway that leads to better things.
There Is always some good left In every
one and we seek by prayer and personal
contact to find that spark of goodness.

reading precede feach meal, on Wednes?

afternoons services are held. Th testi

threshold, of, life already started on the
downward path; some sick and penni
less, both .conditions nearly., always
brought, on "by bud Ijablts, presents a
problem well worth solving. Then there
are old gray-haired men, some minus
one or more, legs, an eye or some one of
their senses. Practicaly all are wear
ing the roughest of clothing and their
shaggy hair and unshaven faces say
more plainly than words, "What's the
useT" .
Those three little words embody one
of the first steps downward. Many have
come to the city with little or no funds,
could find no employment, drifted Into
bad company and finally turned to the
Pisgah Home, .where none are refused
admission, no matter what their condi
tion may be.
Xia I.ast dunce.
A few months ago a man suffering
from delirium tremens found his way to
the home athough ina half crazed con
dition. He was put to bed..
Peaceful slumber came at last and In
the morning the man awoke a different
person, his drunkenness gone and the
decision in his mind and heart that he
would try to lead a different life. With
a fondness for the home which I9 al
most childlike, this man is still one of
the members of the big family. So faith
ful and trustworthy has he proved him
self about the home that he has re
cently been given employment in one of
the smal stores of the neighborhood
where he Is doing good work.
His testimony at the Sunday services
never fails to help and Inspire the other
men for they believe in him. He is a
splendid looking man, well educated and
before the drink habit seized him was
a successful broker." Other than this
his history is unknown to the people in
charge of the home. .,
Similar Instances " equally pathetio
come almost daily to the notice of Mrs.
Lawrence and her assltants. A man ap
plied for a pace at the home last week
who declared that he had gone to 12
places in search of work and in the
meantime had spent his little all. An
other said he has made up his mind to
jump off the bridge and so end his
troubles When he was directed to the
home. Many of the young boys are
young fellows who have left home with
little or no money, got to the city, were

Two of the prominent mission work
ers of Portland, are men who were
brought to see the foly and evil of their
way through the Pisgah Home and they
now devote their. Sunday afternoons to
preaching, at the home in an effort to
show others the way.
Mattresses for Overflow,
Mrs. Lawrence has the assistance of
Mrs. Fisk In the direct work of the
home, while the work of visiting among
the poor and distributing any supplies
that can be spared is conducted by Mrs.
Beegle. Love of humanity and Chris
tian consecration are the ties Which bind
these women to these duties. '
The home which has been in exist
ence a little more than a year, which is
located at 111 Ninth avenue, is a good
sized two story building. The assem
bly room, dining room, office and
kltehen are located on the first floor.
All are furnished with the plainest of
absolute necessities. Benches are sub
stituted for chairs in the dining room
and when there aren't enough pitchers
to go around the soup is sent around in
big tin lard buckets. On the second
floor the big sleeping room Is located.
Here there are 30 beds, some of them
single and some double, but even these
do not accommodate all and a stack of
mattresses in one corner is carried
down stairs each, night and spread on
the floor of the assembly hall for the
overflow.
Pisgah Home was opened here by Dr.
E. T. Yoakum of Los Angeles, in Oc
tober, 1911. Similar institutions are
conducted in Hurley, Miss., Birmingham
Alabama, Spokane and Los Angeles. '
(Kpeeitl to To Journal.) -Tillamook,
Or Jan. J5. With $175,
000 appropriated for road purposes, the
county court la planning to make a sub
stantial Increase in the mileage of good
roads. A year ago, $125,000 waa appro,
priated for this purpose,; but as $80,000
was needed to pay off outstanding road
warrants of previous years, the amount
actually available prevented the under
taking of much ftew work. At this time,
the rdad fund is entirely out of debt
and the entire sum appropriated Is
available.
Work on three roads will be under
taken immediately. Of these, the most
important is. the road from Hebo to
Doiph, a stretch of 10 miles. ThjLs la
thu road used by vehicles in entering
and leaving the county. The present
road is privately owned for a part of
the distance and a toll Is. exacted from
all travelers., An entirely new survey
ban been made and the old road will be
abandoned as soon as the new one is
completed. This road follow! Three
RlveVs from Its headquarters In the
Coast range near Dolph to its meeting
with the Big Nestucca near Hebo. The
road from -riebo to Conder bridge, a
distance of two miles north from the
proposed new road, waa rebuilt during
the past year.
XTetartg Slstrlot to Be Opened.'
Bids are now being asked for the
completion of the road from this city
to Netarta bay. Several miles of road
were built last year, but owing to lack
of funds, about four miles were left
unfinished. This road also 'follows a
new survty and will hot only be a bet
ter built road, but wilt have a much
easier grade. The Netarta bay district
which will be made easily accessible by
the new road is considered ohe of the
moKt beautiful of the resort districts
in the county. Not only la there the
hard sand beaoh which extends, at low
water, for almost a thousand feet from
the edge of vegetation, but the gradu
ally sloping hillsides, which are free
lrom the scrub firs and brush of ether
districts, make ideal homesltes. Cape
Mears, a large promotory to the north
shelters the district from the prevailing
northwest winds.
Garibaldi Beaoh Extension.
The third road which will receive Im
mediate consideration ' la the stretch
'-TFflTmmeeTeTo
towns on Nehalem bay. This road is
a part of the proposed Garibaldi Beach
road which will eventually connect Til
lamook bay with Nehalem bay. It Is
probable that several miles of the road
north from Garibaldi will be built dur
ing the summer. The entire distance
has been surveyed, and the roadway es
taDllshed. The county Is well equipped in road
machinery at this time. It now owna
three seven ton gasoline rollers, one 10
ton gasoline roller, a 10 ton steam
roller, three sprinklers, a scarifier, a
dredge with an orange peel bucket, three
rock crushers, a number of scrapers,
plows, etc. Sheds have been built at
various points and all machinery is
kept under cover when not in use.
Specifications for new roads call for
substantial road building, Sixteen foot
giaveled or crushed rock roadways are
provided, with easy grades and good
drainage. At curves, a SO foot width is
built. The right of way is cleared for
a distance of 16 feet, on each side of. the
cei.ter line.

The, German Consolidated societies of
Oregon will hold their sixth annual
convention in the Swiss hall, Third and
Jefferson streets, commencing at 10
o'clock this morning. These societies
are composed of 3? different organisa
tions located In various sections of the
state, with a membership of nearly
7000. One of the most important sub
jects to be discussed will be that con
cerning tho appointment of a German
consurtor this city. It is probable that
a petition;, will be gotten up by the
members of the societies to be 1 for
warded to the German ambassador at
Washington, IX C, asking him to take
up the appointment with the home gov
ernment. -.;- :,. sf!vs' ., , .

Philadelphia. Pa., Jan. 26. Ten tanks
of oxygen pumped through tons of coal
under which he was burled saved the
life of Joseph Foerester, a laborer em
ployed at the J-eague island power
house, today.
Stationed at an open chut through
which coal was passing. Foerester
missed his footing and slid Into the
runway. A workman saw him .drop and
called for help. The coal was shut off
from above, but not before much had
pounded on Foerester's body.
The chief hospital steward had an
Iron pipe, capped with a piece of paste
board to keep out the gas, driven
through the coal until it was judged it
must have reached Foerester. The
pasteboard was then punctured with a
piece of wire and while workmen dug
the coal out of the bunkers, oxygen was
pumped through the pipe. Foerester
was taken out unconscious but alive.
No bones were broken.
