MARK THE TRAIL.
The suggestion made In the paper
by the high school students, printed
in this issue of The Bulletin, that this
section follow the lead of Klamath
Falls in marking the route of the
Fremont expedition, is good. We
trust that a movement will be start
ed to carry out the idea and to col
lect historical material relating to
this Central Oregon country.
With the good toads movement.
there has sprung up all over the west
activity toward marking the trails
followed by the early pioneers. "Old
timers" have retraced their paths by
automobile and communities have co
operated with the idea of adding to
the attraction to the tourist by mak
ing known the historical Interest of
the route. To many summer auto-
ists the fact that they may follow
Fremont's course and see bis camp
ing places Is as interesting as the
scenery along the way.
Here, then, is a local opportunity.
There are still living a number of
men in this vicinity whose assistance
in the work would be Invaluable.
Let's get it before it is too late.
The present work, or "The Care
of Souls." Ps. 142:4. "No Man
Cared for My Soul."
1. Importance of Preparation.
Thero Is much need for serious pre
revival work. Special work requires
special preparation. We have beeu
told of a small engine in a battlo
shlp whose solo duty was to start
the engine going. Without it the
powerful machinery that moved the
vessel could with difficulty begin Its
task, if at all! yet whon once Blurted
it could accomplish easily what was
expected of it. There are some church
members who expect to have a re
vival simply by having announce
ment made that the special meetings
will begin, and then gathering the
faithful at the appointed time and
beginning. Sometimes a revival may
result, as fish are sometimes caught
In uncompromising places, but such
utter lack of preparation should for
bid all murmurings at the mysterious
ways of Providence If total failure
results. "God moves in a mysterious
way," it is true, and one of his mys
terious ways Is that In the matter of
soul-saving he has chosen to use us
men and women as his instruments.
The first requisite for reaching
dead souls and quickening them, is
life. To be ourselves alive from the
dead is the first step. The second
requisite is more lifo. Not merely
and expect' to lend men out of the
danger toiio. Uuslness men have no
use for lukewarm employees; they
want those whoso energy mid enthus
iasm are always at tlio boiling point
the point where things are done.
Then Isn't it rensoimblo to think that
ami wants boiling men for his work?
Never lot It bo said of you that you
are a fakir by an honest man. Never
bo a hypocrite!
2. Who are they who ought to cure
for tho souls of others?
l. The minister. Ho holds a pe
cullnr position as Bhephord of tho
flock.- Too much emphasis canno
be placed on the minister's part, for
he must always bo ready to grasp an
opportunity to point the way to
Christ. His position as loader of the
church places him In a place of lead
ership In tho community. This com
munity does not take much stock in
the leadership of tho church, and It
Is going to tuke a long, hard pull to
put the church whore It rightfully
belongs In the common lifo.
2. The members of the church.
They stand in a peculiar sense as the
ambassadors of Christ .In their Im
mediate ' surroundings. Tho minis
ter cannot have that human touch
with all tho people of the parish. Not
only does the minlstor find It Im
possible to covor tho territory as It
utim.1.1 ka h n t hU ......1,1....
enough to save us. but enough to f ... I " " t
him. Let mo put this question to
you. How many of you talk and act
same when tho minlstor is around
us and keep us in the way of right
eousness. The third requisite Is more
abundant life. Not only enough to';,,,.

NEW YORK BOXING
IS ON LAST LEGS
Money Grabbers in , Ring Held to
Blame for Blow Dealt by Gov
a, . ernor Whitman,
By H. C. Hamilton,
.' (United Pre Staff Correapondeot)
' NEW YORK, March 14. Any idea
any one might have had that boxing
wasn't on its last legs and tottering
. unsteadily to its corner for the final
round should be thoroughly dissipat
ed by Governor Whitman's action in
New York when he refused to permit
Les Darcy to appear In public bouts.
Whether it will seep into other
states and knock the game clear out
of the ring is something else and re
mains for time to tell.
Whitman was severely criticised
in many quarters when he took his
stand against Darcy, while in other
spots he was highly commended.
Critics declared he should not have
shown discrimination against Darcy,
pointing out that Freddie Welsh, Tom
Cowler, Ted Lewis and others are al
lowed to box without interference.
They are just as much at fault as is
Darcy, for . they are Englishmen.
whereas Darcy is an Australian, and
of Irish descent.
Whitman's action seems to have
been taken because Darcy had neg
lected his duty to come to America
and get some easy money. The spec
tacle of a foreigner coming here and
separating New Yorkers from their
'cash because they were easy marks
evidently didn't appeal to the gover
nor. The other English boxers, al
ready were in this country when war
was declared.
Darcy made a frightful mistake
when he refused to talk business with
Mike Gibbons and promoters from the
middle west. Then, when he listened
to bad advice and separated himself
from Tim O'SuIIivan he made another
bad step., Each of these actions were
the cause of adverse comment and
the people Nbegan to kick.
Governor Whitman's attention nat
urally was called to what was going
on. He couldn't have helped seeing
it if he read the newspapers. Darcy
wasn t complimented by any means
in the things said about him. -If Gov
ernor Whitman got the wrong im
pression it Is his own fault.
The money grabbers among the
boxers are fast choking the wind out
or the goose that lays the golden egg.
It wouldn't be at all surprising If ev
ery boxing law in the country was
wiped off the books within two or
three years.
nit and Keep, but enough to over
flow. "He that believeth. from
within him shall flow rivers of living
water." How obtain this life? "He
that bath the Son hath life." Let
us yield ourselves to be made an In
carnation of Christ, as Christ was the
Father. So shall each of us become
not merely a living soul but a quick
ening spirit.
1. No man careth for my soul. The
Psalmist is in the same condition
that many men right here In this
community are a lost condition and
no earthly friend to help him out.
He has plenty of enemies but no
friends. Have you ever been In that
awful condition?
What is it to care for the souls of
others?
( 1 ) It Is to have a firm conviction
of the value of their souls. Jesus
teaches us that the most valuable
thing in the world Is man. The
Psalmist says: "What is man that
thou art mindful of him? and the
son of man that thou vlsitest him?
For thou hast made him a little low-
as when he is not? There is a pretty
good test for your life. If you u
not, why?
I am glad that some people do not
talk and act the same whon I am
around, for I am afraid the theology
of the strong arm might be necessary
more often than It Is; but, say, do
you know that someone else Is always
dreu nougb to come to church, ami
many persons are Indifferent and
devilish enough about It to keep tholr
children from joining the Church of
Christ, when they wnnt to and ink In,
What will bo their punishment for
this? Mt. 18:6, "Hut whosoever
shall offend one of these little ones
who bellevo In me, It were better
for him that a millstone wero hanged
about his neck and that he wore
drowned In tho depth of the sen."
4. Ul.i.o school teachers. Since
many of our children do not Inivo a
c.utnco of Christian training In the
home, but nro sent to llio .Utile
school, it becomes the duty of tho
teacher to euro for their souls. What
a grand privilege to co-operate with
Jesus In this g.or.oUH work. Would
that we might reullio what a favored
position the good teacher holds In
tho advancement of righteousness
in tho lives and hearts of the pupils.
3., What are tho evils of not car
ing for tho souls of others?
1. How cruel! If I wero to tnko
a vote today on ,tho question of cruel
ty to dumb animals I would find
that you till opposed It; but on the
quostlon of cruelty to huniun souls
I rind that a great number favor It.
Is It not cruelty to find a person hun
gry and thirsty and then refuse to
give him either bread or walor when
you aro supplied with both? That Is
Just what wo aro doing In our Chris
tian work.
2. We are not only cruol. but wo
show our Ingratitude whan wo fall to
heed the call, and the evil penally
falls on us, as well as on him who
should receive tho care. When wo
become so encased In ourselves and
our own business that we forget our
uuiy to our noignuor, wo will pay
the price in a scrimpy shrunken soul.
Oh, how many of them wo have. Then
we show our ungratefulness to God.
3. Shall wo not even go further
and say that It Is criminal, when this
charge, "No man careth for my soul,"
Is brought axalnst us? What la the
charge wheu it can be proven In the
courts that parents have been falling
to provitlo (wilfully) tho baro neccs-
plonty of work lu Ills kingdom to care
for souls.
Let us bo up and doing, that this
accusation may not ho brought upon
us, "No man careth for my soul."

In the deserts, whon caravans are
in want of water, they send a rider
some distance ahead; then, after a
little space another follows; and then
at a short distance another. As soon
as the first finds water, before he
stops to drink, he shouts aloud,
"Come." The next one repeats the
word, "Come"; so the shout Is passed
along until the whole wilderness
echoes with the word, "Come." The
whole Bible echoes with the word and
It becomes our duty to pass this word
along, until it will bq Impossible for

3. Heads of families. The parents
are responsible In a vital and spirit
ual way for the care of the souls
which God has entrusted to their
keeping. The father and mother
should consider what a great priv
ilege and trust, God has favored them
with, and should seek to lead their
children In the right paths, so that
they might advance the Kingdom.
Parents, are you especially concerned
about the welfare of your children?
This Is where our work is terribly
handicapped; the parents, or one of
them, are not concerned about their
own souls and those of their chil-

DANCE EXHIBITION
AT THE HIPPODROME
Assisted by Miss Ethel Hulbert,
Professor Montrose M. Ringler, of
Portland, gave demonstrations of
modern dances at the Hippodrome
dancing party last night. The Mont
rose waltz and the Ringler schot
tlsche, orlnlgated by bim, as well as
the standardised dances were shown,
-i.i. . "uu " ny man to say, "No man careth for
him with glory and honor. Thou mv Bn..i ..
madest him to have dominion over
the works of thy hands; thou hast
put all things under his feet." One
of the great difficulties with much of
our theology has been, that we have
made a poor and worthless creature.
Who is to blame? Not Jesus'
teaching, but the folly of men. who
have had some doctrine of man's
brain concerning his fall, but noth
ing concerning his rise.
We have placed snares on every
hand for his destruction and even
some who are In the place of refuge,
instead of trying to help save the life
by throwing out the life-line, are giv
ing out false signals to drive them on
to the rocks of destruction, or will
fully upsetting the life boats sent out
to rescue. Why be bothered about
them? They are not worth 30 cents
per dozen.
We are studying In our Sunday
school concerning the value that
Christ placed on the soul. He placed
value on the body also. He healed
all manner of disease of the body.
He also placed a high value on the
mind, for he healed many diseases of
tne mind. Let me say right here
that If we placed a higher value on
the body and mind, we would place
a much higher and more eternal value
on the soul.
Let US Consider the way the mind
should be valued. The soul and
mind cannot be separated, for how
can a man have a soul and not a
mind and be normal? (Most of us
are normal.) When God gave man
the power to think and choose he was
giving him something that was near
est to himself, for God Is all wis
dom. Then if we fail to place the
proper value on the mind, the think
ing, reasoning, willing power, we are
falling In those eternal processes and
we shall have to nay the nennltv
There are many of us who are failing
daily because we are not reaching up
to the opportunities which we have
in spreading through our education
al means the truths of God.
Have you ever seen a man or wo
man who reached the highest place
in God's kingdom, that is, as near
as we can tell, without properly esti
mating the value of body, mind and
soul? Never! Now that is not say
ing that he or she has the best educa
tion or the best body, but it is say
ing that such a person has seen the
eternal vision and has used the tal
nets God has given to the best advan
tage under the conditions.
Not only should we appreciate the
value of the soul, but we should feel
an alarming apprehension of the dan
ger to which their souls are exposed.
It is not enough to simply put out a
danger signal, we must put ourselves
where we can help when beln la need
ed. You see immediately what that
calls for. It calls for a genuine heart
felt, whole-souled religion not one
of these Sunday go-to-meetlne tvnea.
We cannot be a luke-warm worker
nave claimed to bo His laborers. W
have accepted his salvation, and have
been enlisted as a volunteer, but now
wncn it comes time to fight, we turn
traitor. hat else can you call It
whon that soul cries out In his des
pair, "No man careth for my soul"
and we flee to some other quarters
4. In the end It is fatal. It is 'fatal
to the soul who has been compelled
to make the accusation; for you can
see It In the wait; and It is fatal to
the person who continually allows
the accusation to be laid at his door
How does that oome? Tho soul
what last makes the charge Is lost
and must go to meet his doom, but
now about tho guilty one? Friends
I am not tho one to Judge, but I can
say that there Is a righteous Judge
and his Judgments are Just. I ask
you to pass Judgment upon yourself
in the light of the evidence which
has been brought to your attention,
nna I will do the same, for myself.
If you have passed your opinion and
have called yourself guilty on all four
counts (cruelty. Ingratitude, crlm
