PRESBYTERIAN j CHURCH IS
- PACKED, SUNDAY NIGHT

Subject for Closing,, Service la
" "Tings' Abide"-Mrs.
- Lioag Sings
With a stirring address delivered
in a crowded auditorium -Sunday
night Iter. Ward Willis Long
closed his four-year pastorate of
the Ifirst Presbyterian church of
this, city, Mr. Loqg is this week
entering his new place of service
in Stockton. Cal, The subject for
"the closing sermon was "Things
That Abide, M and the alk was pre
faced by appropriate remarks of
farewell to the congregation. "
' In the opening services' the min
ister's family wss presented from
the platform.. Of special interest
to tho pleased audience - was the
first public appearance of little
Wardina. the two months' old
daughter of the Longs, who gave
testimony of her Inherent capac
ity for public life by accepting the
applause without comment or pro
test. Lois Evangeline, whose
childish sweetness has made her
the center of much attention dim
ing her stay in Salem, smilingly
save her farewell by saying, "1
love you all. Goodby."-
Mrs. Long,, whose vocal num
bers have been greatly appreciated
by Salem people, sang, by special
request "God Leads His Dear
Children Along," which was very
charmingly given, accompanied on
the auto harp.
In his introductory remarks.
Rev. Long said: "I would nbt exi
change places with anyone in the
world, for the -returns of. the min
istry are so rich. As J leave Sa
lem.; I have the deepest appreci
ation of what 1 these years have
meant to me. I. have made mis
takes, but I have been an honest
young ; man in your service and
hare tried to ' perforin my, duties
slnceerely and as my ability would
permit." '
Mr. Long took as the basis for
hls-sermon, St. Paul's message to
the church at Epnesus, where
Paul had been'for three years as
a leader, and returning later gave
bis people a final message. With
characteristic vigor, and . pleasing
maimer the speaker drew , an
analogy between Paul's experience
and his own. Paul bad left his
former charge because of a sense
or duty.
'It's hard to convince tpeople
that a sense of duty calls every
man wjio is trying to do his best
service. It is hard to
convince folks that a nmlnlster
does not leave a church only for
increase in salary. It is true that
a change usually means such an
Increase, but usually a place that
offers more money offers more
opportunity, and a minister. Is, not
true to his duty if he does not ac
.cept the larger field of service.
"It Is natural to lament the loss
of a familiar leader. All leaders
must leave eventually, but God
will always have people to pro
claim his message. The life of
the' church does not depend on the
life of an Individual.
f "The church suffers most from
Itself because of egbtism and seU
fishness,' It has not yielded to
Christlikeness; It lacks love and
patience." J3?
In the farewell greetings which
followed the sermon the congre
gation. expressed the sincerest ap
preciation for- Mr.. Long's services
as a pastor and regrets for his.de-i
parture from the community.
COUNTY SOIL SURVEY
. PROJECT WILL START
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE CO
OPERATES WITH OTHER
Work Will Begin In Western and
' Southern Portions; Finished
By Next Spring
A complete .and. authentic soil
survey of Marion county is to be
established immediately and fin
ished, by next spring, according to
the report of, Prof. E. F. Torger
soriL of the Oregon experiment, sta
tion, who is here to carry on the
Work. Through the efforts of the
Salem Chamber of Commerce, in
cooperation with Oregon Agricul
tural college and. the United
States bureau of soils, the work . is
to be carried op. here in order to
give every farmer and interested
person an opportunity to know the
quality of soil for. his needs. ...
Immediate work will start in
the western and, southern portion
of the county, using the Salem
topographical - sheet and starting
on - bottom- land -soils." -
Three divisions have Jbeen made
in the' proposed surveySvhlch will
determine the non 'agricultural
land, the soil for x general farm
use, and that, used In specialty
crops, and lastly, soils adapted for
forestry purposes. - Each soil will
be determined, by the color, a
sample; taken, the map marked.
and an analysis made at the exr
periment station in Corvallis and
other places.
; This survey will be of. practical
use to real estate - men. , settlers,
and others interested in products
of the soil. "It will determine. the
- exact quality of. the ; soils' in the
various sections of the country,
and 'mPS will determine their lo
cation' in the county. . The .work
Is to be carried on by Professor
Torginson of AC and Theodore
Glassy of the federal bure.au of
soils. '-l.-:y'y-ys:S'
The location ot the" soils will
be determined by a specially de
srgned, automobile which measures
I ;
the distance accurately, thus en
abling the workers to. spot every
40' acres of land 'in the county. ' A
soil : auger will bore t ihto' hr
gTound and- samples of soil, reg
istered on the topographical map.
In this' matter the location oT all
roadways, farms, bridges.jstreams
and - other topographical i If eitures
will be shown. . : . j ' i j-j ., :

On TuesdayJ June 9, Mark Hol
mes passed away at the home of
his sister'Mrs, W. H.' Downing,
near Shaw, 'l& miles' east of Sa-
lem' In the Waldof Hills after an Ill-
ness of nearly three years during
which "period he was provided with
every, comfort f that loved ones
could bestow.' On'. Thursday the
funeral was teld'ln Sialem, attend

afier Hstening to .a splendid; and
fitting "ermon by Ttev. Kantner,
followed the body, to its final rest
ing place, in; beautiful City View
Cfemetery where it as laid away
beneath a bank of lovely flowers.
: ? ,Mrjki waaa'hhtive f Oregon
and proud of , the fact. - He - was
born on a farm at a paint, known
as Holmes' Gap in Polk County- in"
1863. He was the eldest son of
Alex and AintraFrixxeU, Hdlmes;
honest ; and fearless 'stock; Who
came in. the pioneer- days -.when
Oregon was ne w and ' the Wili
ametie tValley .a Wilderness The"
Holmes .family came from Illinois
in 1848 anA ' the ; Frlzzells from
Missouri YourjyearS falerr,1 Botrf
families have always been respect
ed and" honored -as neighbors,
friends, and citizens. . They were
associated in the opening up of the
new country along with the Nes
mithsj Hardens, Holmes, ; Butler3
and other who helped to' make
Polk counter famous.
i. Ancestry-. in any r event is all
right noble ancestry Is splendid.
But ho one ever- heard Mark
Holmes; -boast . of, Jiist. ancestry.
Mark preferred to , be himself and
was not the: sort to take credit
for any worthy deeds done by his
ancestors,- nor would he blamo
them for any of hrs.sbortcomingsJ
There .was only one. way for Mark
and that was his way. Not that
he. was selfish, but, being Mark
Holmes,' distinctly, be only went
with the crowd when, the crowd
was going in his direction. Other
wise he followed his owit course.,
wholly content" if he wer4 able to
occasionally iend a hilpingjiand.,

to a friend or a stranger rn dis
tress. He loved a political battle and
was never so happy as when tak
ing part in a" heated campaign.
Probably- the greatest event in his
life was the election as delegate
from Oregon to the National
Democratic convention at Balti
more which nominated Wood row
Wilson for president in 1912. It
is doubtful if any delegate to that
memorable gathering saw more,
heard more or learned more, than
did Mark Holmes. Woodrow Wil
son was his idol and it was his
proudest boast that he had a voice
and a vote in bringing about the
nomination' and election of that
great man.
The human side of Mark Holmes
was interesting and most likeable.
As a financier he could hardly be
called a success; but whether his
pockets were filled with 'cash, ot
empty, life was just the same to
him, and his friends always knew
they were welcome to the best he
had and never hesitated-to go to
hint in time of need; for he would
not turn adeaf ear to a plea for
b,.elpv SotHhiapockets were empty
almost as often as they were full,
it was due to his friends and his
generous spirit. He- was not a
saint no one thought so. But his
dearest friends knew his rear-
worth, and some came a long way
to take a last look and pay' a fare
well tribute ere the . earth closed
forever upon his form. He leaves
a sister and brother In Oregon and
sister in Oklahoma. The others
of the family have gone before
r He needs no praise from his
friends. It is hoped he, had no
enemies; but no matter. Here is
a closing tribute: " . -;
Go tell all his faults; I admit that
be. had. some - "
Write down evegr one to his
life's very end. .
One virtue he had that outweigh
' -,'ed every . weakness :
He never went back on a friend,

drawings, paintings, mouldings
and carvings on wbod and stone.
Practically all the work done
there so far has been on the sur

able to revlsuallze the customs and
manners of the people.
Although, the expedition will go
for research into relics of the past,
it will also make surveys of pres
