" Outside are endless fields of sugar cane, brok en here and there, by tho sluggish : waters of a bayou. Tho cane Is In all stages from fresh plantings to harvest, and the negro help that Is doing the labor seems to bex In all stages save that of industry. Because of boll . weevil damage, cane was planted heavily in Louis iana last year as a substitute for cotton, very little of which is to be seen. Because of drouth, however, the sugar content of the cane is low this year about half the aver age and since the sugar planter is paid for bis cane according to the sugar content he has plenty to grumble about. In Canada It was early snows In the wheat fields. Here it is drouth and little sugar In the cane. The farmer. It seems, has the mater ials for a grouch wherever he may be. The rainfall here has been only about 60 inches this year,' which qualifies as a, drouth in this part of the world, .The average precipita tion is from 60 to 75. A. Louisiana man, an occupant of the same car, has just learned that this writer is from. Oregon. "Oregon!" he prattles. "I have often heard that Oregon l a beau tiful state, but they say the rain fall there Is terrific!" This from an inhabitant of. a state where 50 Inches, of rain is looked upon as a drouth, ' and where 70-odd is nothing unusual. Whereas at Eugene the average annual rainfall is only S8 inches, largely concentrated Into four tnonthal Can you beat it' The gifted liar who spread tho tale back la the '50's that it rains Jt months in the year In Oregon certainly got circulation tor hhV whopper. Oregon needs to spend about half million dollars In advertising to broadcast the truth - about Its climate. ' We are proud of our rainfall, which makes us tho only natural oasis In the vast brown desert that stretches from the Rockies to the Pacific, but we need to convince about 114,500,000 of the 116,000,000 Inhabitants of this country that it rains Just enough in Oregon not perpetually. Among tho passengers aro two Mexican section hands, ', traveling on a Dass and making a splurge. They have a drawing room forward In tho observation, car,, and have also one of these vest-pocket phon ographs and a collection of records dealing at length and In intimate detail with the allogedcharms of red-hoi mammas. ', v . v. A petition to provide en ade quate reward for boiling them in oil. liberally spiced with tobasco. would be heavily oversubscribed. Beside the tracks runs a great highway not paved, for pavement down here la one of those wonders Of which returned travelers tell with awe but well graveled. It roaches from the Pacific coast to ,k. .,i and two years ago a year ago, even It was cluttored with fllwors beating It breathlessly for Los Angeles. Now tho tide of travel tin tans on wheols, fat women In pants that fit them not wisely, but too well, bed rolls, coffeo pots and all Is sotting hoctlcly eastward. Even In . arrest boon spaces they zip by at the rate of one or more to the mlnuto, . . it,. ht In the This train, one " - West and formerly crowded to the detested uppers at this season of the year, is practically deserted. Its occupants largely returning Pacific coasters. Why this startling change T The answer Is provided by just seven letters of the alphabet. These let ters, properly arranged, spell Florida. Florida has captured the Imag Ination of the whole country east of tho Rockies. It Is the now Kl Dorado.' It spells sudden riches to everybody except those who are already there and paying hotel bills. It Is the Promised Land prom ised fervently by thousands of real estate offices on the most expen sive corners, flamboyantly decked with pictures of tropical Florida. Tho flamboyance of these offices Is exceeded only by the language of the page advertisements In the papers. And the suckers are In vading them In shoals, leaving be hind a golden spawn. Coral Gables, Miami. Hollywood- by-the-oa, fabulous profits made In a day, a boom that never will and never can bust those are the golden halt and the poor boobs are gouging each other's eyes an) crushing each other's ribs In a mad scramble to buy, sight unseen, lots of which they know and care only that they are "somewhere In Florida." Barnum was a great and wise man.. Apply for a berth to Florida on any of the beat Eastern trains and you will be told courteously, but firmly that It may be possible by next month to get an upper that Is, If. you get in your order now. Tou will be told with equal firm ness that you can take nothing but hand baggage, for there is an em bargo on trunks and household goods. At Miami there is a pile of, trunks, roles and boxes as big as Skinner Butte, all hopelessly lost in the crush and being added to momentarily as the frenzied thou sands pour In, for somehow the embargo doosn't seem to work. Enter the smoking compartment or the club car on any train east of the Rockies, or edge into the crowded lobby of a hotel, and by that act you will be Inducted Into meeting of the I-Could-Have- Bought-It-When club. By the same token, the members thereof will be assembled In a formal lodge of sor row, telling each- other In grief- laden tones how sinfully rich they would be if they had only bought when so-and-so pleaded with them to' buy. The tales they tell are wild enough, goodness knows. Swamp land that last year could have been had for a song is selling now tor thousands a front foot. Lots double in price overnight. Miami, a couple ot years ago a village,' la now a city of 300,000 to 400.000. depend ing on how easy , you tell 'em, Pikers have become millionaires and millionaires have ceased to count it. When will this epochal boom, this gambler's nightmare, collapse ? ' That la a favorite topic among those who own no lots. Those who have already bought do not ask. for they know know with the dead-sure certainty of the fanatic who sees vast riches within his grasp that it never will collapse. never can collapse and will go on and on forever, amen, because a great and rch country is demand ing in loud tones a tropical play ground at any price. This writer, being a cynic and being also from the Pacific coast, predicts that It will collapse, and the collapse will come just as soon as the suckers quit spawning. The mournful I-Could-Havc-Bought-It When clubs will give way to even more mournful I-Could-Havo-Sold-It-When clubs. Florida is shy on natural re sources.' It has no coal. It has no oil. It has no minerals. It has no water power, the highest point In ' the state being only a little more than too feet. Its soil, for the most part, Is thin, and sandy, requiring fertilizer if It Is to pro duce. It has only., climate, and four months In tho year climate at that. They are telling the world In fog horn . voices that Florida Is the Ideal all-year resort, but they can tell that to the Marines. The sum mers are too hot for a white knan. Tou can't build a great and per manent development on the founda tion of four-months climate. If you are to build permanently, you must have fertile soli, timber, coal, oil, water power, raw materials. Florida has llttlo or none of these fundamentals for permanent Indus trial growth. ". .. It has winter climate and It has rroxlmlly to the great and rich cities of the cold Northeast. It will always be a favorite and wonder ful winter resort, but you can't make permanent such a boom as Florida Is experiencing on four months of winter activity. Sooner or later, the way things are going, the crash must come, and when It does come It will bo a pippin. ' As to the effect on the rarlftc coast of this moonlit Florida mad ness with which the Knst ami the Middle West are strlokon. It l Undeniably grave for the present It Is especially gravs as ta Cal ifornia, for Cull for n In la also n winter resort and as such Its nose Is now badly out ot Joint. Speak of California In tho East and the othor party to the sketch listens with a cold and fishy eye and eventually breaks In to ask If you know what that corner lot In Miami you say It Moe-ah-mee sold for the other day and what It could have been bought for last week. Oregon surfers by reason of tho fact that In tho East all Interest and capital for outside Investment have been diverted to Florida. They can't sco any othor part of the country back thore. But California will survive. Cal ifornia, entirely apart from Its win ter climate. Is a great state, rich In natural' resources. It has found .Itself Industrially and no longer re quires the artificial stimulus of a hcllmato boom. Perhaps it will be all the better off for getting rid of the tin can tourists. Oregon does not competo direct ly with Florida, and hence Is less concerned. Very few Oregonians are speculating in Florida lots, and ' so we can stand by and wait more or less philosophically for the In evitable crash. ) In casting about for a man to guide the city out of the present financial morass In which It finds itself, a group Of citizenry has acted wisely In selecting E. U. Lee. As a first requisite to fitness Ern is a business man. well versed In the Intricate details of civic financing. He also combines progresslveness with a broad-mtndel vision of the duties involved, qualities whlct are essential to the serving of the best interests of the greater Eu gene. As the city progresses we need men ot strong moral flb-e and broad menial calibre to direct its affairs and such a one Is E. 0". Lee, whs, although x'.jctant to serve because ot reuons of ill health, has yielded to the wishes ot his fellow townsmen, feeling It his patriotic duty to obey the call, Along with the railway terminal as a civic benefit. It now appears that a film colony is to be tossed Into Eugene's lap for good mea sure. Local and adjacent scenl; environment are Ideal for picture purposes and climatic conditions are also declared to be a screen asset Contrary to general be lief, New York and not Hollywood is the largest producer ot moving pictures. The average annual rain fall In that state Is 58 Inches; In Oregon, 36. Two women have done It. They held up a South Dakota bank and escaped with 1500. The lost ves tige of man's prerogative vanished in the performance of this act by the female ot the species. If It were not for this modern dancing, a lot of our young peoplo would nover get any exercise. The worst thing about a cold In tho head Is the way the possessor Insists on broadcasting It.

President Cnolldge I one of the two best-liked occupants of tho white bouse In a, generation, de clare Hruee Itllven after a canvass of all parts of the middle west and Hast. In tho tlecrmber Har per's Mr. Itllven offers his solu tion of "The (Jreal Coolldgu Mys tery." and nmong the many reu- nous he tilvos for ('rtoltilifu'a oolill. larlty Is ona which presents the j president In the famous rola of Cinderella. Mr. llliven writes: I "Many commentators on public I affairs have, 1 think, overlookeil tho great sympathy Mr. Coolltlgo has accumulated among people who feel that he has since August, 1923, been confronted by a hard and big Job for which ho 'never nsked.' The mood t not unllko that In which one sees a substitute muslclnn suddenly railed upon to give a concert, unprepared. You applaud not o much tho perform ance a the pluck with which It is undertaken. We have in Ameri cn an inveterate sentimental at tachment for the . under dog or any sine wbo sccma t, be apiesr ing In that rolo: Jack gels all our cheers and we have ojtily hlsse for his giants; we prefer our princes ses to be Cinderella. While Mr. Conlidge never has sought In the lightest degree to rapttniUo any auch senllment as this, there I no doubt that the feeling exists and works powerfully In his favor. To the common man ho seems, qulto correctly, to be In many ways just a common man himself. He photographs In tho movies as well us possible, from this point of view.- that Is, he looks acutely miserable, self -consclou nnd nshamed. Every man who ha felt that way whan facing a photo grapher's lens has a follow fool ing at onco. A few month ago tho news reel caught tho President paying a visit to his son John when the latter was a member of a citizens' training camp. Tho boy stopped forward and saluted his rather smartly. The latter, obviously not knowing what tho dickens Is the etlquotto when tho president moots a corporal who Is nlso his son, hesitates, looked un happy, and flnnlly took off his hat! No one could see the eplsodo without feeling sorry for tho cen tral figure. Politically, to havo forty million people view it on tho screen wa worth at least three of those ninjor victories over congress which are so hard to ub tuln." JAPAN LAUGHS AT AMERICA Crime Wave Hern Indlcatr Doslro To Bo First In Kvorytlilng TOKYO America's crime wnvo, about which so much has been written both at homo nnd abroad, is simply another manifestation of tho American national dcslra to be first In everything according lo tho Tokyo ".N'lclil Nlohl." The Americans huve lately been nccustoiiied to call thomselves tho foremost nation of tho world," tho "Nlchl Nlchl" goes on to say, "and It seems to be true that they prldn themsolve on being tho foroinost oven in criminal offenses. "The United States has enacted laws, regulations and ordinances In Ihe past, which nro now cnuntud by half a million, Tho American prldo of 'America First' I thus fulfilled, hut it Is thin superstitious ballot In almighty law that has nunln her foremost In criminal nffondnr. "This is not merely our cynlcnt remark, hut Is a doubt that has arisen in tho Amerlcnn mind. Tho crudo mnklng ot laws has mado their authority weak, In conse quence of which Americans huva begun to hold tholr national luws In contempt." Tho "Nlchl Nlchl" nlso raises tho question, In connection wllh tho prevalence of nrlmo In the United Stntes, of the nuthnrlty of rollgion over human mind. "It Is amazing that nuch a devout nation is notorious for Its criminal offenses," says tho paper quoted.

One thought was often rellernled. lie In-tsted Hint Omnipotence ll.elf must knock l the door of the human will Hut what ort of an otnnlpo teuce Is this? Surely If II wero or. tlindox oiiiulpoience It could at least break open the door. Hut the omnipotence of love would act otherwise. It might pre.cnl Itself before the door with oblecls of desire or It might set fire to the rear of the hou.e. There are a million way of en. terlng man's heart without ti.lng force, tilvo mo control of all cir cumstance. In any country, nnd I will guarantee to regnlnlo Its re.

Jehovah Klotilin. who sll su preme above the realm of lime and apace Is tho only being in the universe unshackled by the chains of rlrctiuislnnee. Our version have well nigh hid the truth, but the highest ami ttlose powerftll of earths potentates gladly play the part tlod n.slgns them though they know It not. In this Conner lion, I am reminded of Ilin Infidel w ho raised his hands ulolt and dared tlod if there bo a tlod lo bring It down. II wns a silly Ihln-' to do for (lod wunts hands raised against him now end rrfu.es lo u.e force In compelling obedience. Yet (lod hn other way quite as effective and far moro Impressive thotirh ridiculously simple for ac coutpllshlng hi purpose. It happened . that In this rnse the Infidel was bald headed, and It also happened that there was fly bussing about Just as tne Infidel had hurled hi challenge and stood walling on hi pata and without a moment s ronslderaiion down came the hand la swat the fly. tlod had answered the fool according to hi folly. It did not need omnipotence lo anwer hi boast. It needed Insignificant weuk. ness. So wo see how easy It Is to set the human "freo will" against llself. He willed to hold up his hand, but tho tlcklo of a fly was far nior momentous In bis Ufa than the existence of Ood. Ono of the most .coil satisfying and spirit soothing truths given to Us is found In Paul's epistle to tho I'hlllpplans 3:13-11. He carrying your own salvation lulo effect with fear and trembling tor It Is Ood who la op erating In you to will as well as to work for the soke of Ilia, delight. No Independent sovereign will can ever bo In harmony with Ood. The bliss of the future will not arise from Indepondencn. hut freedom In the dlvlno despotism. Conscious accordance with (lod Is the only liberty; freedom outsldo of this Is only nn Illusion. To sum up. There Is only ono Independent "free" will In tho un iverse and that Is the will of Ood. This will during the eons agea Is manifest In two d I.I I net wnys. through nature and revelation. Hy nature, mankind has been placed by Uod In an environment which lends It contrary to his revealed will. Naturally man's harltngo from Adam dispose It against hi man ifest pleasure. This is (lod In na ture working out his will In. Die reulm of subconsciousness. In or der to perfect Ills purpose men must not lie aware that they llvo and move nnd nro In Him. They must Imagine that they are Inde pendent deities, well able to match their wits and wills with that of tlietr creator. This I the great democrntio doctrlnn of self-determination. The fulso "freo will" which men claim arises from Ig norance of Ood's ways and of their own limitations. Not renllzlng that Clod Is work ing ugalnst himself in order to lio como known, they luinglno that their will Is Independent of bis. Not being nbln to annlyzo the In trlcata processes which linderllo their own determinations they do ludo themselves into thinking that each volition on their part In a creative act, indeed far more than that for creation Is not as com monly supposed based on nothing. Hut man's will Is Itself a creature of (irciimslnucen nnd can bo molded and shaped by tho grent controller of circumstances to suit his own pleasuro. Tho case of Paul Is a perfoct ex ninplo of what we havo endeavored to not forth In tho foregoing con sideration. Tiioro Is a tendency to rogard his enso as ontlrnly excep tional. Hut the very opposite of tills Is the fart. Ho In a pattnrn of tliem that should bollovo hera after first. Timothy 1:16.
