Parsons' writing under the heading. Questions That Science Will Answer," says: - r-: Our. consumption of raw- materials is, going on at such an enromous rate that even a brief survey of the situation uncovers astounding truths. We have used up more coal In the last thirteen years than in the century before, more iron in a decade than in the previous ; 100 years, and more COPPER and zinc in ten years than in all the years before that, j v- since tuper wiiu. avuit; iimiing, wvmuienteu. .fyveu f ""niorearJJmg than all else is the fact that the con- sumption oroilthroughout the world since 1914 has totaled more thin in all the previous years .since oil -t was first discovered. V Our, petroleum reserves will be well on the road to depletion in a dozed year3,and ; Parke Channing, the eminent coppex expert says ;; ' that 'unless new deposits of the red metal are found ; we shall be threatened IN FIFTEEN YEARS with ' a shortage of copper.' The world's resources of this vitally important element are less than of an v other case metal ITbzX is an important statement f -li r iitt hat dots Stmean to Salem-? means the early full development of the Santiam min ing resiontirhere there, are all but unlimited quantities of cre fcarrjir lalarja percentage of copper. & A recent assay of frar streak ore 14 inches wide,; at the 1100-foot point in the 5 iunsel of the Lotz-Larsen" mine, near the; junction of the JLittla North Fork of the Santiam river ;with Gold creek, . thawed: Copper, $57.70 a ton ; silver $9.88 a ton; gold, . HAO a ton, This was with copper figured at 17 icent3 ,U pound, and there is a rising copper market. The price is i fcbovs 17 cents a pound now, and .Henry Clews,? the Wall T'-i-t authority, thinks it will go to 20 cents. Others believe t jt will not stop Short of 24 cents, as pound ; and enthusiasts predict much higher prices, . : ' : - ' " . ; ( v Tha full i development of 1 the Santiam - mining region wcild mean, a. very prosperous Salem,- backed by activities , cn.?n ercrmous scale in a. wide region, runnincr from a line cra'.i ncxth and -south.. from -Elkhorn postoffice, about 40 nir- : rci tizza, eastwara to one running paralled with the ; t'zzi. cf the Cascades and no one now knows or can pre--c"'t Yrr much farther east, or how far north and south :.l,-thy way, thereare within sight vast quantities of ?

'",'' -i , ; , i 1 A MAN'S RELIGION -f '(Copyrighted by the San Jose Mercurv. ,: A 1 ' 1 The conception of religion which the ordinary individual has is apt to be quite superficial; To many people religion Is little more than the observance; of certain rites, forms and ceremonies. To others it means merely an intellectual con i ccption of God and spiritual truth as set forth in some creed , or dogma and a public profession of one's belief in this as necessary to salvation from damnation in the world to come. To comparatively few people is religion the reaching out of the spirit of man for God, a constant desire for His spirit and life,' . and a continually increasing knowledge and con sciousness of His presence; an inner experience which trans forms the life, enlarges and broadens the vision, changes the motives and aspirations and 'brings man into "a new heaven and a new earth.'! ,, r N ; ;; , .. ;- : Although one's intellectual belief about God, the here after or any other thing or things religious may not- does not constitute any part of his religion, still his ideas about these things are a very perfect" indication of hi3 inner life and quite generally reveal his4 ambitions, his ideals and the things that mostly absorb his thoughts and life. The future "happy hunting ground" of the Indian, with its plentiful supply of game, is not more expressive of his ideals and soul condition than is the fancied heaven of the mammon worshipper with its streets of gold, its gates of pearl and its walls of jasper a perfect revelation of his life, ambition and ideals. "God' I3 Ithe same yesterday, today and forever." I Of course jneither He nor immortality, nor the reality of the spiritual world, nor the laws that govern the universe and mankind are changed or affected by the ideas of man in re gard to any of them. And our ideas of these things grow with our growth and enlarge, with the enlargement of our knowledge. Neither the "Great Spirit" of the savaee nor the merely superman gods of the old Greek and Romanno, not even the Jehovah of j wrath and inexorable vengeance, ! the conception of the ancient Jew; nor the provincial and partial Lroa oi jtne modern junker Prussian none of these expresses the idea of God entertained by the real follower of the Prince of Peace. He has grown beyond all these primitive ideas of a Supreme Being. He knows God as an all-pervading spirit; a constant presence; the source of all power and -wisdom, free irom aii semDiance 01 human passion, selfishness and injus tice and full of love and tenderness: the perfect embodiment of all spiritual strength, beauty and sweetness, ; ., Yet it is most important that we all come as near! as possible to correct ideas concerning God and Hi3 attributes, the future life and things religious, because our conception of these things i largely determines our ideals and has a most powerful influence in the moulding of our characters, and the shaping of our lives. sThe Scripture declares that "as a man thinketh in his heart,so is he," and that "we ? are changed into the image of what we gaze at." , , '- i f ; The man :' who, believes that God is not 'above feelincr anger .like the undeveloped human being willcertainly , npt make any very strenuous efforts to overcome anger in; him self. . .The man who has no clear conviction about there being a 1 uture lire could hardly be expected to be self-denvme and 3elf-sacrificingl The motto of his life is likely to be, "Let us eat, drink ; and be merry, for , tomorrow we die.'? One wno Deueves that ail of his sins can' be quite readily forgiven and the effect of them upon his soul blotted out wilr yield more readify to temptation than will one who believes with St. Paul, that "God is not mocked, for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap." r r " The men andwomen who have in the! past most moved the world, who have i most helped it to achieve its real i.. 1 1 1 1 A 1 . x i -si ... uiuiuuua, im wiio nave uiazea me way x.o proirress ana civili zation have been those with an unshakable faith in a Supreme Being; to whom the future life seemed alrriost as certain and as real as this ; and to whom loyalty to truth as they saw it and faithfulness to duty ; were'eonstant and daily habits. Of such as these were the prophets and apostles, the! martyrs. the reformers; the emancipator3, and the leaders in neatly all the great movements that have blessed and elevated stbe race;, and such' doubtless will be the future benefactors of mankind.- Often misunderstood, reviled and persecuted by their own age and generation,; they are the great lights? qf histoiy and the milestones along the road of progress ;V-ji, Uur highest . conception of truth, of- right, of God and of the living present ; a spirit now animating, inspiring, dom inating our, lives. We should know Him as a real presence calling to us daily and hourly to come up higher and offering us the help and strength !to obey. if;, V ' . ' , However mighty the significance of . the resurrection of the Christ nineteen centuries ago; it ' is vastly more im portant to us that he be, resunted in our lives now. Not alone because such resurrection in us Will bing with it peace, gentleness, love and all spiritual graces, but - because the world can be saved only through the real regeneration of in dividual men and women. -The icarnallman inus must be crucified in order that the Christ may be resurrected in the hearta of individuals everywhere n the world, if contentions and strife are ever to cease and men learn war no iriore. .
