Every day, the eyes of these residents, the evidence of population shift is census Pacific before readily "O regon, U. S. figures showed, gained 41.8* over population figure, of 1940, ranking second to California, with 42.1%. The state of Washington was third in growth. Population trend, by the terms of this federal estimate, traces an era of expansion, particularly residential, for the east end of the valley This growth, in turn, will reflect an increasing prosperity and business development, in meeting new demands for various goods and services.. But there is a sterner side to the picture. With each addition to population totals in any area or any com munity, the need for increased civic service is immediately felt. In the East Tualatin area, for instance, the seemingly endless influx of newcomers puts urgent emphasis on matters that will not be falrer * « ilrsl *raced ‘he white man's settlement of the Pa- Our Contemporaries In « f i o Northwest.

The grave conditions of rampant pollution, which are quite general throughout the area because of the high level of sub-surface water, is a situation that must be eased. Multnomuh and the South West Hills district came to grips with sanitary problems on August 17 while Beaverton goes to the polls on August 25, to vote on a bond Issue for the same purpose. The situation around Tigard, as fur as its insufficient means of sewage disposal, is already occupying the attention of the state sanitary authorities and they will probably insist on steps to clean up this picture -even if it means that the state, Itself, will put in a disposal system for the taxpayers to pay for. The Aloha area, too, is well within the section of adverse drain age. As the city of Sherwood discovered, after a check by sanitar ians showed the existing disposal means a '«Unking mess," the state cal knowledge, it might be an is- mint for the lin a g e of money as is b* tter ‘ ba" average and is refuses to await the whims and fancies of taxpayers.

And how much God wants us back, Christ told in the parable of the lost sheep. A man had one hundred sheep. Ninety and nine were safe and one had strayed away. The shep herd went over the mountain until he found It. You see him throw it over his shoulder and come home rejoicing. And just so, Christ came to save you and me, God’s lost sheep.
