TO SING HERE
Program to Be Given at
First Evangelical Church
Sunday Night
What promises to be a real treat
in store for persona who attend
the First Evangelical church Sun
day night, for at that time the
DeMoss Lyric Bards, concert en
tertainers for more than 57 years,
win jrive a program, beginning at
7:30 o'clock. f
The DeMoss Bards, although
they have toured the country reg
ularly each year since 1872, are
really eastern Oregon . folk and
the origin of their musical organ
ization harks back to the days of
Lee and Whitman and the early
missionary movement in the Pac
ific northwest. Rev. James M. De
Moss and his wife Elizabeth were
among those who voluntered to
fill up the ranks in the missionary
fields of the far we3t when peace
was restored following the mas
sacre of Marcus Whitman and the
siiD?equenty Indian wars.
James and Elizabeth DeMoss
settled in Grande Ronde valley,
eastern Oregon, and It was he
who located the first sawmill in
eastern Oregon. He helped get the
posteffices at Weiser, North Pow
der and Cove, and the singing
preacher was In demand from Fort
Boise to Walla Walla. It was he,
his wife and five children who
first began the annual tours
spreading song over the country,
the first pay concert blng given
in Grande Ronde valley in Sum
mit meadow. The mother and fath
er dropped out. and in 1895 the
four living children played In
England, Germany, Fra-ce, Belgi
um and Switzerland.
In a few more years, all the ori
ginal group but George, gave up
the concert platform, and it is he
who heads the group now. the
other members of the Lyric Bards
being his wife, Mamie Aurelia
DeMoss, a. descendant of the fa
mous Davis family of the soath;
their three children, Mae Belle,
Elbert and Homer, and Florence
Smith. Henry S. DeMoss, one of
the charter members, is advance
manager.
Rev. A. P. Layton. pastor of the
First Evangelical church, where
they are appearing tomorrow
night, recalls that the elder De
Mosses and their five children
were guests in his parents' home
in Harney, Nebr., in 1881, seek
ing refuge there for three days
and nights when a raging storm
swept that country and drove
them from the plains. The Layton
home was but a sod shanty onthe
plains, but by all the children
deeping on the floor, there was
plenty of room for the singers who
had been caught in the storm.

Week's Sermonette
Forgetting
By LOUISE PINNELL
(Pastor Christian and Missionary Alliance Tabernacle)
Text Forgetting those things which are behind. Phil. 8:13.
These words written by Paul, the Apostle, as expressing that
which was necessary to his own Christian experience, are made
applicable to the experience of everyone who earnestly desires to
win the Christian race.
There must be no looking back. In Paul's case, there was
much to forget. Past learning, position, jrestige. his persecu
tions of the Christians, even the spiritual conceptions taught him
from childhood he must put behind him.
Spiritual victories are not attained through the natural, but
through the supernatural. A man is not even ready to begin this
Christian race until he hsa become "partaker of the divine na
ture" for "the natural man recelveth not the things of the Spirit
of God, for they are foolishness unto him."
Having once entered the race, he must press forward. Past
sins, mistakes or failures must not deter him. Neither must the
sins and failures of others cause him to take his eyes off the
goal. The successes and blessings on the way must also be put
behind or progress will cease. He must be constantly reaching
forth unt othose things which are before.
Two boys walked across a snowy field. At the end of the
contest one had made a very crooked path while the other made
a very straight one. "How can it be?" said the first boy, WI
looked at my feet all the time." "I did not look at my feet at
all," said the other, "but made straight for that tree yonder."
"Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith," is
the secret of success in the. Christian race.
