" . 4a:'Hl ' L Student Service Program Will .Be Carried to State School This Year SILVERTON. Ore., Nor, 12.i (Special). The Lutheran Broth erhood of Oregon will establish a student serrice program at one of the state schools this year, accord ing to the report given by Rev. William Schoeler of Aurora who ha3 charge of this department of thaf Brotherhood, The report was given at a meeting of the Silver ton unit of the Lutheran Brother hood of America Tuesday evening. Rev. Mr. Schoeler in his' report stated1 that up to this time the Brotherhood has $6,000 in pledg es, and that one congregation alone at ' Portland gave $2,0Q0. The student service program was recently inaugurated by the Luth eran' Brotherhood of Oregon. The plan Is to establish a Lutheran home, or hut. as it will be called, for the' boys and girls at the state nniversity, at Monmouth and at CoryaIli8. The home will be Pro vided with' a chapel, study rooms, and an all around home. Inas much . a - neither Corvallis nor Monmouth have a Lutheran church these two places are. bid ding strongest for the home. 4 The ReV. Luther Deck of the United Lutheran church of Van couver, Wash., was present Tues day a - night and ' represented his church as whole heartedly endors ing the movement of the student service. "We are not only en dorsing it in sentiment, said the . ev. Mr. Deck, "but also in whole dollars." This congregation has to date pledged $600 with but one fifth of the membership visited. The Rev. George Henriksen j of Silverton then spoke giving a re port of the national convention! of the - Lutheran Brfotherhood I of America which was held at Minne apolis In October. The Rev. M. Henriksen reported that while the organization plan was not as per fect as it might be, the movement was going Jforward mithwonder f ul VtrideSjTjand, that hejad. never seen such enthusiasm as shown! by that large body of Lutheran men gathered 'f or the cohverttfon: He went on to emphasize the import ance of supporting the church schools, at the same time giving a hearty endorsement o"f the stu dent service program' being c tab lished at the state schools.

In pleasing voice and excellent inter pretation Mr. Fisher i sang "A Clean Heart." Choir and audienee sang one of the Billy Sunday choruses, "I Need Jesus. The pas tor, in dealing with the subject, took for his text: "Now Are We Sons of God." He said in part: r "Many Christians living might be described best by 'Hark! from the tomb a doleful sound.' Living in' the past is usually pretty poor picking. Time moves in an ever present now. The world does not care very much about the past. That i soon forgotten. What we are today counts for most. Just as . v-ie yesterdays make up our todays, so ' we make our tomor rows. 'Be not deceived,' God Is not mocked.' It is only the grace Of God that can redeem us from our' past' and : make us what we ought to be today. " "If a man is a son of God, then he should live; act, talk and love like a son of God. How far short we fall of our privileges as sons! Some men who. profess to be child ren .of God. yet live, act and talk like the children of the evil one. The walk and conversation should he as becometh those who are sons of God. "We become sons of God by adoption. We have all the rights and privileges of the heirs of the inheritance. We are adopted sons, having received such adoption by the. Spirit. But God goes further, and by the spiritual birth makes us 'born sons' of God, imparting the new nature, the new heart, the spiritually awakened soul."
