Rev. Frank Meyer will give the morning ser mon, followed by a basket dinner. Afternoon service will be a pro- gram of music, history, and re marks by ex-pastors, and a talk by Rev. ' Butler, Canby, an ex- pastor. During the year 1890, church service w'as held several places in this community, but on Jan. 31, 1891, the people put forth an ear nest effort to build a church house. They were poor but went to work with a will. They cut logs, hauled them to J. S. Yoder's sawmill, then hauled the lumber to the building site, which was given by Benja min Roop, and with their own hands erected this building. Most materials and all labor were do nated by these earnest people. The church was finally enclosed and Rev. Fred Parker, preached the first sermon on April 5, 1891. As the organization was poor fi nancially but rich in zeal and spir itual life, it was decided to be known as Smyrna. Rev. Parker served as . minister for -several years. History Told The first officers were Benja min Roop and T. C. Ackerman as deacons; L. D. Yoder, William Roop, Thos. Sconce, trustees; and A. J. Yoder, clerk, T. M4 Yoder, now of Portland, organist. During these 50 years, real in terest and effort have been shown. Fifteen ministers have served this church. A. B. Snider, now of Port land, served in this capacity the longest, eight years. During this time 140 membershave been re ceived into the church. L. D. Yo der and W. H. Yoder are the only charter members - living. There have been approximately 30 fu neral services held there, and only one wedding, that of Delilah Tay lor and Fay Huiras in July, 1940. Sunday school has been held continuously since this time and even a few years prior to the building of this church, it was held at the Halliday home and also at two different schoolhouses, 'which are known how as Rural Dell and Yoder. Its first officers were A. J. Yoder, superintendent; J. J. Yo der, secretary; Miss Emma Acker son (Mrs. Joe Buschart, of Cali fornia), treasurer; T. M. Yoder, now of Portland, organist. All friends of .the church, for mer members and pastors are in vited to attend this "golden" serv ice. Plans for the day are in charge of Mrs. Nola Yoder, chairman. Lenten Drama To Be Given "The Brother," a three act Bible drama, by Dorothy Clark Wilson, will be produced Sunday evening at the Knight Memorial church, 19th and Ferry streets. The drama portrays the thought, customs and observances of the Jewish people and the opposition and. hatred aroused by Jesus in his own fam ily and people. The characters are: James, the brother of Jesus, Richard Smart; Mary, his mother, Harriett Smart; Jude, his brother, -Harold Mel chart; Salome, Mary's sister. Iris Arnold; Mary, wife of Clopas, Fern Allison; Susanna, her daugh ter, Vehna Hughes; Malluch, a carpenter, Glenn Williams; Zeri, his son, Newell Williams, Music during the play and be tween acts will be provided by a male quartet and mixed trio, tor of the National Tuberculos!i association, told the Oregon Tu berculosis association that a sub stance in the soil apparently wa responsible. ' i ' -It Is something about which we have (stUI to learn a great deal." he said; "but we do know that It is a substance, almost unknown, which has a power-!-ful action on germs. "Our next step was to put earthworms into this soil after wards we found the L earth worms alive and cheerful and fully without tuberculosis.' He warned! his listeners that the substance, which he j did not name, might prove a disappoint ment, but that its discovery was a "gleam of light on i an other wise bleak horison." It will be tested next on guinea pigs. Plan Special Home Visits Sunday will be observed a Consecration day at the First Presbyterian church, Salem. Dur ing the morning worship service more than 100 adults and young people will be commissioned . to go forth as workers in the every member participation canvass. Rev. W. Irvin.
