Throughout his teaching of the Bible, the Rev. Barnhouse has as serted that Holy Scripture is easy to understand if it is approached in the proper way. "People have kidded them selves too long that the Bible is obscure and difficult to under stand," Barnhouse declares. "The secret is to let the Scriptures ex plain themselves. There is not one verse in the Bible that is not explained simply and clearly by at least a hundred other verses.' Attached to the U. S. Army Air Corps in World War I, Barn house spent seven years following the war as a missionary in Bel gium, and as pastor of a French Reformed church in Southern France. For his contribution to French Christian education, he was made Chevalier of the French Legion of Honor.

He left both posts in 1927 to assume the pastorate he still holds in Philadelphia's Tenth United Pres bytcrian church. Pastor Organizing River Rd. Church The Rev.

The camp is located on High way 36, about 25 miles west of Eugene. It contains 33 acres to be developed for various activities for use by all Lutherans. Officials of Luther Laymen, the group of Lane County men who administer the grounds, said this week that plans call for construc tion this summer of a swimming pool and camp shelters, if funds are available. The campaign is getting underway Sunday. One of the first features of previous programs is the con struction of a 100 by 40-foot din ing hall and kitchen. Most of the material for the building had been donated. The Vik Construc tion Co. of Eugene has done much of the work with volunteer labor helping. Young people from Lutneran churches of the area are expected to use the grounds for the first time as a summer camp this year.

Noble's parents were released, but he was held in the Dresden prison for 14 months, without ac cusation or explanation, and late in 1946 was shipped to concen tration camp Muelherg in East Germany, and then on to notor ious Buchenwald. In 1950 Noble was sentenced without trial or accusation, to 15 years' imprisonment and was shipped through Poland into the U.S.S.R.
