The End of the Trail WILLIAM SUNDAY, who! led thousands up the sawdust trail, himself came to the end of life's trail. It was lonjr, , past the scriptural three-scoreand-ten ; and it was crowded with incident, with experience, with sunshine and with shadow. In his early life he was a baseball player, and a good one, playing; with the Chicago Cubs; was converted; became an aggressive evangelist. His permanent home on a ranch in the beautiful Hood River valley ; but he was on the go much of the time conducting; his revival services, accom panied always by his wife, "Ma" Sunday. . . Sunday marked the culmination of the period of the or ganized mass revival. He was severely condemned by many churchmen for his unique methods, his gymnastics, his dra matics his emotional appeals. Others defended him saying that even if many who traveled the sawdust trail later back slid, those who remained faithful justified the methods and the cost. And there were many whose conversion stuck, who became active in religious work; and who trace their changed life to the preaching of Billy. Sunday. 1 Few mass revivals are held any more. The younger gen eration do not recall them. Thirty years ago and earlier, they were the major midwinter effort of many cities. The preach ers would feet together and conclude their town was ripe for a revival. A committee would engage an evangelist, Billy Sunday or Biederwolf or Gipsy Smith. A big frame struc ture would be built, heated with big stoves, the ground cov ered with sawdust, or at least the aisles ; and with plank seats for the crowds. Preliminary organization work included 6 rayer meetings over the city, organization of workers, and beral publicity. Leading feature of the revival was the chorus. The choirs of all churches were assembled -with the evangelist's song leader as director. What Sankey was to Dwight L. Moody, Homer Rodeheaver was to the revivalists of a later day. The great power of music expressed In stirring hymns, played mightily upon the hearts of men and women, giving them the emotional stimulus for the preaching that followed. Sunday was a great preacher. He might jump on the ta ble or a chair; he nearly always would peel off his coat, later take of f his collar and tie; but he was working and preach ing all the while. His religion was the fundamentalist reli gion. Hell was real and so was heaven. You were saved or yoa were damned. All the fury of imprecation he launched against the devil and his works. All the insistence and plead ing at his command he leveled at the poor sinner whom he saucrht to nlnek like a brand from the burnincr. After the sermon came the invitation, with personal work ers passing through the crowd urging those who appeared moved, and who had not indicated by show of hands or other wise that they were Christians; to "hit the sawdust trail" of repentance and conversion, or at least to sign a card. Hun dreds, sometimes thousands in the course of a several weeks' campaign, would be accounted as converts,, would later be welcomed into churches there either to function or to lose their zeal. . S The Billy Sunday revival used all the tools of crowd psychology to attain success. columns of space. There would be high school night, anct f i f i n . i - l imeeungs ior men oniy on ounaay anernouns, or xor lauies only. Crowds would come. People who never darkened a l t.

The meetings would work up to a great climax on the last Sunday, which was the as well as making the last harvest of soul3. Sunday never worked at a salary but for a free will offering which usu ally ran into thousands of dollars. He was criticised for the amounts he took away from communities but he said it all went for the Lord's work. Few have been the mass revivals since w orld war days. The war or something gave a jolt to organized religion. The big evangelists found. their calls growing fewer. Billy Sun day, peer of them all, has been a waning force for some years. Whether his passing marks the end of an religious epoch we .do not know. But he was unique, a phenomenon in Christian service. There is surely none who does not hope he enters into 1 the heaven which wasso real for him. End the AN unf ortunatetangle delayed house passage of the amend ed "conference report yesterday afternoon and brought turmoil and frayed tempers. It is hoped a good night's, rest has soothed tired nerves and moderated opinions so the house may give early dispatch of the capitol bill to the sen ate. -Time presses, with only two days of the special ses sion remaining. Unless there Is speedy accord not only in the house but with the senate there is the chance that the ses sion may close without any capitol bill at all. . ! This would mean -not only delay but. the probable loss of the federal grant of $1,575,000. The federal government has been patient with Oregon; but it will not wait indefin itely while legislators debate and disagree. The legislature dare not go home without authorizing the capitol construction. To do sp would be to acknowledge that it could not function and that it had wasted some $60,000, of taxpayers money. Neither the governor nor the leaders of either branch can take the responsibility for wrecking the whole work of the session. r Members of the legislature must know that all the con flicting views cannot prevail ; that compromises will have to be made; and that some must accept defeat. It is sincerely to be hoped that the leadership of the legislature will assert itself and enact today a capitol bill which will meet the needs of the situation. .. While no pillars were painted athletic relations between Med ford and Klamath Falls are strained since the ball game last Saturday when Medford failed to lope over KP with several touchdowns. In fact KF claims Medford won only with the assistance of a Medford umpire at a critical point, namely the goal line. To counter that Med ford bring up the naughty work of a Klamath man after the game was over, who assaulted the offending official. Coach Bowerman of Medford dares Klamath to come over the hump and play the game agalu and guarantees a 50 to O beating. The rest of the state hopes that the feud will not result in meetings In the court house and hill billy guards patrolling' the main streets. Oregon newspaper worker note with regret the passing of S.

KENT Copyright 1935. by The Baltimore Boa In Whose Pocket? . Washington, Not. 7. FROM the practical political an gle, not in more than a genera tion has the republican party, full of hope as It 19, been in so lead er! ess and con fused a condi tion as today. In erery pre ceding cam p a 1 g n as far back as can be rememb e r d, there was eith er a republican president in the white house or a recognised practical b o s la the organ!- Traak X. Ksat sation. ONE of the other la the past al leys supplied a sense of direction for the party and "provided an an chor or landing place for the w lngable delegations from the states. Eren when they lacked complete control ' they bad the balance of conrention power both Is to ticket and policies. This time neither exists. There is no republi can president and there is noth ing remotely resembling a party boss. Hence the conrention to be held in eight months is utterly un predictable. It Is still true that So far as the nominee Is concerned the choice seem limited to Lan don, Knox and Yandenberg. Bat no one can tell what a conTentlon as completely uncontrolled as this Will do. j " 0 1 IT means of course, that If tho best candidate and the best plat form emerge It will be by accident. t means that the blatherskites and breast beaters will hare a -freer field and a wider range. It means that the "hound and rab bit" politicians who want to dodge rital Issues like the AAA, who are flirting with the Townsend plan leaders and howling for a "liber alization" of the party, without In the least knowing- what they mean, will be noisier and more numerous. if IT means a wide open coonTentlon with no individual or group in control, and that means scant opp ortunity for clearheaded thinking and carefully planned action. It means a horse-trading, logrolling back-scratching conTentlon. It is about as hard for a good candi date and a good platform to emerge from that kind of con fjrention as it is for Congress, un der the same, conditions, to pass (a good tariff lar. Still, with luck fit can happen. The cohfuslon in cident on lack of control Is, how lever rather in the Roosevelt in terests. THE better ..grade Republican leaders know this bat can't do 'anything about it. With a strong case against the New Deal leader with most of the Republicans who bolted their party on prohibition back In line, and a chance to win ,rery much better than any one of them hoped last year, they are handicapped, through lack of steering gear and a party chauf feur for the Republican machine. The net result is apt to be a hodge-podge performance, out of which the party will o before the country neither one thing or the other, partly New Deal and part ly anti-New Deal, not wholly con servative and only partly radical. -o AT least, that Is the way It seems now. Of course, It Is possible that before next July a group leader ship may develop that will mean competent convention control, In geous course. However, that sort of control will not be achieved by the "favorite-son" racket. The "favorite sons" are far too nnre lisble, slippery and seifish to go along satisfactorily. There Is a way by which a small group can run the show if they have the skill to play the game a simple and, so far as the Republicans are concerned, a very old way ;to ..wit, the corralling of the Black and Tan delegates from the south. THERE are about' 210 of these delegates mostly colored and 'mostly controlled by eolored lead ers. Always they hare been an administration convention assets easilly secured through the Feder al patronage largely controlled I by the Republican Postmaster General. There hare been times when such delegates were bought with cash. Some of them still expect money. So far as Lnown, no one has yet corralled these dele gates. Yet is clear that the man or group who does will be In po sition to dominate the conrention and exercise the deciding voice In every real controversy. In the past there have been several experts credited with skill in solidifying these Black and Tan delegates. THE Hon. Bascom Slemp Is one. The Hon. Frank Hitchcock anoth er and the Hon. Walter Brown a third. All three in their day hare been "good.- Many a Republican President has been nominated by these Black and Tan delegates from States no Republican has carried since the Civil War. The real question about the next con vention is where these delegates go when the conrention gathers? In whose pocket will they be? To whose cause will they be tied? If anyone is busy lining them up now and - usuaUy it .ls done be fore this period -he Is working so far under ground that he is hidden I eren from the political moles. mmmni r.inii .... rsir : ' " " " -Z-3 ' 1 Bits for Breakfast j j . By R. J. HENDRICKS 1 Statesman is next most popular paper at Portland nablie library, says this old timer; pioneer memories: Comlnr to the desk of the B'ts man from Lafayette Keliur, 3?3 S. E. ?7 th avenue, Portland, , a lettar containing the interesting pioneer recollections that follow: i . w mm T found Tonr article on the old mission place below Salem Quits interesting, as it waa a reminder of : old associations. m "I was horn and raised on the John Kelxur donation claim. which cornered with the original mission claim lived tnere 3 years. fit was John Lord Force that owned the mission farm. Jim and Carlton Force lived somewhere else. "Us children, the Stephens children and the Force children- Annie, Mary, Amy, John Manning, Llbby. Ella, Abble and Nettle about made up the neighborhood school for many years. m S The school house was built on my grandfather T. D. Keisur's place about half way between our house and the Force house, which latter was the grand old two and a half story mission building. "Grandfather's place laid be tween the mission place and the Willamette. John Force sold 90 acres off the north end of the mission farm to Horace Holden. who In 1832 was shipwrecked, and, with one other survivor, held captive two and a halt years on one of the Sand wich islands. i "They tattooed him gorgeously and artistically with a full suit of barbaric design, as I frequently saw when we went swlmlmng in the altogether nude. And could he swim? We lived near to the river bank. ! "Holden was our nearest neigh bor from my earliest recollection, and stories of his captivity, slav ery and hairbreadth escape never got old. I j "That name 'Wallace Tralrie' is a new one on me. : "As I recall, it was the money John Force borrowed from Bush from which to build and equip the first sawmill in Salem that broke him down financially. That mill stood on the bank of South Mill creek about two blocks east of Commercial street.

Copeland, M.D. i NOT LONQ ago I explained the Importance of exercise In maintain ing a healthy, active body. Today I want to tell you something about posture and its relationship to health. : Maintaining good posture la really a form of exercise, because when we bold ourselves properly we are ex ercising the muscles that support the body framework. Good posture pro motes better breathing, besides giv ing mild exercise to the various mus cles of the trunk. i Good posture and good health go band in band. In the schools It baa been shown that children who bold themselves properly progress in their studies more rapidly than those who slump in their seats or fctand In slov enly fashion. : Children suffering from malnutri tion are likely to have poor posture. Just as soon "as they are made to take the tight position the appetite and digestion improve. As the child gains in health there is increased strength and this better position is more readily maintained. Faalty Poetnre Signs i Among the signs of faulty posture are drooped head, round shoulders and back, flat chest, "pot-beny". knock knees and flat feet In most Instances these deformities can be entirely prevented by attention in early childhood to posture and the simple rule of hygiene, j A child who shows a tendency to ward round shoulders or any other postural deformity should be made to take a simple exercise for Its cor rection. This should be practiced regularly morning and night. This consists of standing erect with hands clasped behind the neck. The body is then brought tlightly forward, drawing the shoulders and elbows as Close as possible together. Then the erect position is resumed with the hands still clasped behind the neck. : The. time given to this exercise may be gradually Increased as the child becomes accustomed to it. It should never be continued' to the point of fatigue. Of course, there are many other forms of exercise, each; suited to a particular deformity. Don't Scold Him I The child should never be scolded for his slouching or careless posture. But he should be gently corrected and taught to walk, stand and sit correctly. Early education in the es tablishment of good postural habits will help prevent certain constitu tional disturbances. ; Where habitual faulty position Is the result of rickets, poor hygiene, malnutrition or mental overstrain, it may be overcome by correction of these faults. If It results from some Congenital defect, such as curvature of the spine or other orthopefila con dition, medical advice must be sought. i Frequently, adults suffer from bad posture because of occupational strain. It may be the result of men tal or emotional distress. Sometime albuminuria. Indicated by the presence of albumin la the urine, can be traced to faulty posture. This Is medically termed "orthostatlo albuminuria'' and quickly disappears with'correct jtlon of the carriage of the body. Answers to Hoalth Qoerios ' a A. W.

"Be reasonable.

"I see," Sharlene said gently. Julie, in the backs-round, beean to breathe heavily with rising wratft. iier eyes darted nre at Kent's back. He did not notice her. "I resent your coming here, Shar lene. It's cheap. We should hare had this out at borne, decently, no melodrama. Cora would never have done this " Julie, unable to contain herself any longer, flounced into the room to face him, like a small red fury. "Do I understand you, Mr. Kent DamerelL that you expect me to be kept in the dark, hidden, while sae remains your wife? You're got an other think coming!' Her voice rose to a shriek and she stamped her foot "Look here, Julie," he began sternly. "Shut up I I hate you! X wont make your old picture t I wont be humiliated this way! You smuj? mug!" She broke into a storm of wild sobbing, glaring at him through her tears, stamping: her foot. j A negress In cap and apron, shaking a wet umbrella, clattered Into the corridor from some back entrance and looked into the room where they were standing. "Maiziei" shouted Julie, taming her rage on her maid, "what d'yon mean, going off so this woman could butt in beret" "I jes went out a minute to tell my boy to wait for me 'cause I didn't know how late I'd be" Her eyes rolled toward Kent. "Get out of here!" screamed Ju lie. "You're fired!" She pushed her furiously out of the room and slarrfmed the door in her face, sob bin hysterically. Sharlene shrank back, feeling queerly remote, as if she were look ing at some incredible movinjr pic ture. She roused herself with an effort, beginning to feel again the gnawing, clutching pain that want ed to reach np into her brain and take away her consciousness.' "Wait, Julie," she said exhaust edly, putting out her hand as Julie whirled back from the door, "your time is coming-be patient." Julie tried to stop her uncontrol lable weeping, watching Sharlene uneomprenendingly while the tears coursed down her small storm tossed face. ... "What do you mean, Sharlene 7" asked Kent sharply. "Come on, let's get through with this scene. I hate scenes!" "I'm going. I just mean, Julie, that yon can hare him. I I don't , want him any more." She pulled the damp coat about her and turned toward the door. "Sharlene!" Kent started toward her. She stopped him with a level look straight from her hurt, indig . nant heart. When she got to the door she stood for a moment painfully con sidering its ivo.-y painted surface, fumbling for the knob. Aa she opened the door and let in a rust of wind and rain, she looked back at them, saying in a queer, amazed voice: "rale Is Good Friday I" jShe was rone into the night. Kent and Julie stared at the closed' door. "Is she cuckoo?" asked Julie, sniffling; "It's not eren Christmas yet!" Outside, Sharlene stood In the drivinr rain, trying to think what to do. The water ran down her neck nnheeded. She was alone on the lit tle dark street of the deserted stu dio village. She stared down at her ungloved hand where she still clutched the telegram as in a, rise. Bain stiffened the fingers with cold. "I'm all alone." she thought "There fsnt anybody, any more. ...

I should die a thousand deaths thinking besides, there isn t any Hurry, yoa see. She's gonel" ' . For the first time her eyes filled with tears. They joined the rimlets of rain running1 down her face. Morton put his arm about her and half Carried her to' the limousine waiting outside the rate. I It was one of those luscious. fragrant, summer-promising days, which California can show in Feb ruary, when Sharlene drove Stuart's hilL ' upJkitch Thi door of his garage was open so that she could not help seeing the shining little new car housed therein. She had a little pang at the memory of the "Ancient and Honorable Mr. Jingle," who had become almost a personality to her from hearing Stuart's whimsical stories, but she was glad of his prosperity as evidenced by the new car. ! As she climbed the hill, followed by Morton carrying a big roll and several packages, she observed other auspicious signs. There were new easy stone steps, and a forest ef slender eucalyptus shoots tak ing hold on the hillside. The pool now boasted gold fish in limpid water, and lily pada were showing red on the surface. Half way up to the house, Stuart camejrunning down to meet them, burnished head glinting in the sun from I a swift brushing, and blue eyes sparkling welcome. "Hello, Sharlene I How good of roa to come! Hello, Morton. Can I help you?" "No, thanks, Mr. Pennington." said Morton, grinning affection stelyat him, "Ire got a good hold." "When yoa phoned yoa were com ing," Stuart told Sharlene as they continued np the steps, "I cleared out the models and gave myself a lick and a promise but I didnt hare time to make the house pre sentable." v "Oh, yoa shouldn't have both ered I I hesitated to break into your work but I did want to bring these things to yon." . ,- Morton carried the packages into the littered studio and laid them on the table. , "Thank you, Morton," said Shar lene. I "Now will yoa please drive down to Mr. Folsom's office and get the papers he haa ready, and then come back here for met" "Yis, ma'am." Morton turned toward the door, then hesitated and rlaneed at Stuart in some embar rassment. "It's good to see yoa again, sir." "Thanks, Morton,' - responded Stuart, surprised by his fervent tone. I "Will yoa do . something for me? When yoa come back take a look at my ear in the garage wait, here are the keys and tell, me if yon think the' clutch is all right or if I ought to go and make a row about it." "Oh, IH be glad to!" exclaimed Morton, beaming', as he departed. Sharlene shook her head, smil ing. fYouVe certainly got a way with ( you, Stuart. There isn't a servant in the house who wouldn't f:ladly make a doormat of himself or yea. And Katie yoa know how Drhnshe is Katie sent yoa her They both laughed. Then Shar lene pulled off her gloves and went over to the packages. "Let's have your knife, Stuart." He- produced the little gold pen knife at the end of the slender watch chain which had been one of her gifts, and cut the string of the big rolL.
