OVER SHAKER CURSE (Continued from pact I) the Lord to bless the town and its citizens. ': "Look at Dayton today, and look at Lebanon," offer the be lievers, in proof that the curse and; the blessing alike have been realized. "Both towns were the same size back tn 1820 about lOOjO persons in each. Now Dayton is a prosperous manufacturing city1 of nearly 200,000 people, and Lebanon is still a village of only two or three thousand." A history of Shakerism, relates that immediately after the pro nouncements, hundreds of super stitious settlers, with visions of Dayjon's future greatness hasten ed to move there, forming the nucleus for the city of today.

Heating. lighting, ventilation and equipment will be of the most effective modern type. The seat ing will consist of pews.j .The records of any c fen reh or ganization or institution are, of value in proportion as they are warnings cf failure, or recall the means of progress. For some per sons, too, they revive pleasant memories or experiences. It is with these values in mind that the following is here presented. The very early records of the present church are indeed meager. To O. A. Condit. now deceased. but for over 21 years the faithful clerk of sessions, acknowledge ment is due for considerable infor mation contained in this record summary. In 1869, 56 years ago, this or ganization was effected as a United Piesbyterian church with 20 mem bers. The lot upon which the present church has aJways stood is a part of the Villson donation land claim and was the gift of Mrs. Chloe A., wife of W: H. Wlllson, owner of the land upon which the city of Salem was platted. Said lor was deeded to J. B.; Porsythe and John Patterson in trust fur the First Presbyterian church of Salem. Oct. 14. 1872. Articles of incorporation of the organization were executed by David Allen, J. W. Crawford and John H. Albert Feb. 3, 1873, andlfiled on the same drte. which wasfurther empha sized by conveyance of the lot held in trust by Patterson and Forsythe lo the corporation itself. Of the construction of the pres ent church building there are prac- .ioally no records. From the date of the organization to September 1 the date otoccupancy of the present church building the con gregation wo'rshipped in a hall vented fjom J. K. Gill. The con struction was financed by the Noard of church erection and by :ontributions from members and :"riends. In the spring of 1894 lie church was remodeled and im proved. Interesting ecclesiastical chan-j-- took place during the early his tory of the church, which are of interest in interpreting spiritual and mental attitudes of those 'ays. For example, in September, 1872, at a local coni?rcgational meeting it was voted to make cer- '.in changes of "ecclesiastical re :&tions," and a commissioner was ;PPointod to present the matter o the Presbytery which met on November 7 of that year at Al bany. As a result of this action the efeurch was received and en rolled as the First Presbyterian Church of Salem. Oregon, and the minutes of the church further re veal that, at a meeting on Janu aiy following, the "congregation unanimously decided to introduce instrumental music into the Sun day school." All Oregon was included in. the one Presbytery, which was a part of the Pacific synod when, this ?hurch was established. At the Albany meeting out of a total of 1 7 Presbyterian ministers in the tate. seven were present and ten absent. At this date (January 1. 1927) there are in this same terri tory six presbyteries. 14 4 church es, approximately 175 ministers, and more than 20.000 Presbyter ian members. And a most encour aging phase of this membership for the future of the church i3 noted in the membership of young people who are students in higher educational institutions of this state. Presbyterian students lead all other denominations in num bers at Oregon Agricultural col lege, and present a very high com parative record at other higher ed ucational institutions of Oregon. The Salem church was organ ized as a home mission church, and so remained up to 1885 16 years. In that year it became a contributor to all the boards of the church. . . From an initial membership of 20 the local church has grown to &64. Its Sunday school has an en rollment of 480. The only charter member now living is J. N. Patterson of ,The Ualles, Or.

When Art graduated from school, he had a fairly good stand ing, and his people were proud of him. He started off to cplege, and soon was a member of one of the most exclusive fraternities. Then he became very proud and fjelt himself better than ordinary folks. He forgot that after all it is character that makes the man and not his clothes or his position In society. , When New Year's Day came round, he with some other young men joined a party in the office of a certain man who was a great favorite' with young men. While there some one introduced the drinks. Moonshine "liquor Was served.. They all drank. Art knew he ought to refuse it. and, so did they, all. It was not long e- Tore they all had too much. They became boisterous. A brawl in which there was a good deal jof fighting and bad words. Art Bol ing struck one of the young men with a chair. It happened to be his best friend. And from the blow his friend died after a few days. There is not much more to Art Boling's story. He was expelled from college. He was arrested and tried for murder. The jury disagreed and he was not tried again. But the disgrace, and hurt were too much for him and his whole life so completely spoiled that never again could he rise to what he had been, or become what he had every promise of being, a great man. It is a very different story that we have to tell of one of Art's class-mates. Jane Williams had to work pretty hard to get her standings in school, but she kept climbing and her grades grew bet ter. On graduation -day, while Art had just a fair passing mark Jane was well up toward the head of the class. Art sometimes teased her about plugging so hard, but she kept on just the same. Of course, she, too, had tempta tions to meet. But she resolved that she would not do anything that would spoil her life, or defeat her purposes. Her whole life was different. ln their school days Jatie and Art had been very close friends. He was supposed to love 610 NORTH CAPITOL Gabriel Not a Foot of " A NYWHERE in an unpretentious neigh borhood of frame homes this attractive little common brick cottage would stand out like a knot on a nt-iy peeledpine.log.

I am inclined to think that the old rhyme -about Humpty Dumpty is after all a bit of real good philosophy, and we might learn a good lesson from it. We need to learn to "keep the issues of life" and see to it that we do not spoil it by folly. Then 1927 will be a better year in every way; a real Happy New Tear.
