Keenly; alive to the public interest, he never hesitated to make a personal sacrifice to advance what he considered to be the best interests of his city and community 1 In Salem today there are. many benefactors of his business 'acumen and Irindly interest. He found life a service and he never shrank from the performance of his part. He believed in Salem and its future and he hacked his judgment with his con stant labors. He was always interested in the welfare of his striving and struggling fellow citizens and was ever readywith kindly counsel and substantial aid- - Every man who knew Mr. Rodgers clear down to the depths of his heart must always cherish his memory as long as life blasts. . , . .

' Til It is very good news that the competitive displays between the counties ai the state fair will be discontinued. They never were any good. They never have serv ed any useful purpose. It is dif ferent between independent exhi bitors. They raise the stock under their own eyes, see it develop day by day. A county display is a col lection of the best in the county, A blue ribbon is not worth any thing in such a case. What they want is for the visitors to know what each county has to present. It is easy enough for the visitors to- make their own values, but so much is raised in Oregon that we db not need competition between the counties.- : I Another distinction about Oreg on is that different localities pro duce different things.

New truth and methods in science and business are developed by in vestigation tsts, and experiments applied to facts already known. Jiy this prouess we increase our fund of knowledge, correct errprs of understanding and advanet to larger fielda'of usefulness. :i Religious and spiritual truth comes to many revelation. This has been true in all-the past, stilt is and always will be true. Kpirit is higher than anything physical, it matters not how refined the physicalis. liy no process of analysis or appli cation of I known lavvs or facts of a physical nature one develop a spiritual truth from physical facts. But the converse of this is not equally true. Because spirit is higher, purer and more powerful than matter it can not only control physical things but knows the laws applicable to the physical life and can apply those laws to the accomplishment of spiritual pur poses. The spiritual life is a higher development of the life of God in man than is the physical life aiid as a result the one whose spiritual life is developed can see and understand every thing beneath him in development, while the physical man cannot understand what is above him thai he has not .yet seen nnd experienced. For these reasons the one who would gain spiritual truth or understanding must seek them through revel ation and cannot obtain them through any intellectual process he is capable of employing.! ' - . ' M It has been truly said that, spiritual things must be spirit ually discerned. Man must ek spiritual truth and enlighten ment through his spirit and not his physical intellect. This means of gaining spiritual truth is not denied any man for there is spirit iu every lifw It may not be active or controlling in some but it is a part of every life and through this spiritual life all are connected with the spirit of God. It is also through this connection that we gain spiritual wisdom and power. It would be as useless to attempt to gain these spiritual results by the application of processes used in the demonstration of mathe matical or physical problems as it would be to use the hand to uV the work of the eye. Each o these members is useful in doing the work each is designed to do but neither can do the work of the other. The intellect, reason, logic, experience are all invaluable aids to man in his work with physical things, but none of these alone or all together will enable him to understand or explore the mysteries of the divine, or spiritual life, and true religion belongs to the spiritual realm. Spiritual truth comes through revelation to the spiritual understanding of man and to receive it one must be in a condi tion of receptivity to God's spirit. He need not be spiritually perfect but he must have desire for the spiritual part of God and have a mind and soul open to His ministration. Though he may be in this attitude, and God responds to his appeal and pours His spirit upon him, it is wise for us to remember that wc can receive of God's spiritual truth only what our own un foldment enables is to receive. Because we are still in a rudi mentary state of spiritual unfoldment we shall be able to receive and understand God's revelation in a rudimentary way but we shall receive all we are capable of understanding and using. It must, therefore, be that as we grow in spiritual life and purity our ability to receive God's revelations will increase both in extent and in accuracy of understanding. While we are chil dren in spiritual unfoldment we shall be weak in understanding and much pf the truth God gives irs will be childishly understood. But as we grow in spiritual life and strength our understanding of spiritual truth will enlarge and broaden and we shall see more clearly what God reveals to us. This clearer spiritual discern ment of the truth God reveals to us that comes with our spiritual growth, wjll enable us to correct the childish understanding we " had of the revelations God gave to us in the' early stages of our spiritual growth. "We should be as ready to correct this early understanding, as we are to correct our childish impressions of the physical facts that come to our immature minds, , for only so can we grow in spiritual wisdom. If we accept the above conclusions as true it must follort either that those who received God's revelations in the distant past were ; spiritually unfolded so as to understand them per fectly and in fullness and that they have been able to so com, munieate them to those yet undeveloped spiritually in a man ner that would enable these spiritually immature persons to receive these truths as God intended them toJbe understood, or we must conclude that as" man of this time and in the future further unfolds his spiritual nature and enlarges his spiritual understanding he will gain a new and more accurate knowledge of God's spiritual life and truth both as these relate to God and His children, either spiritually unfolded or still in spiritual im maturity. Whatever may be the fact as to the accuracy of the understanding of the revelation God made to the religious men . of the past", our understanding of this revelation must change as we grow ill spiritual stature and strength. Unfortunate indeed is that one who feels that he now possesses all there is of spiritual truth and that there is not open before him the possibility of receiving further revelation from God of spiritual wisdom and power so high, so broad, so beauti ful and so inspiring that he cannot now conceive of it. And more unfortunate still is the one, who surrounds himself with such limitations to spiritual growth that he cuts himself off from receiving - from God the ministration of His spirit with the higher, unfoldment of life, the broader vision and the increase of spiritual power which this ministration brings. : the the pulsating air of content ment and happiness. Riches, fine homes and cloth ing, are all right when used light; but when the mind is ab sorbed by thm the heart be comes sordid and soon the soul is merely an empty chamber.
