Stanley Moore, Missionary -in-charge. Church School at 9 45. Morning prayer and sermon at 11:00. Young People's Fellowship at the Rectory at 6:00 p. m. A brief questionnaire was sent some time ago to many thousands of people in one of our large cities. It asked: 1. Do you attend Church? 2. Do you advocate abolishing the Church? Three thousand people answered "No" to the first question, but when it came to the second, not a single person advocated the abolition of the church not even one of the three thousand non-churchgoers. The reason is not far to seek: Men may become so careless about the Church that they never think of entering her doors, but they never become so indifferent that they can deny the vital necessity for the Church. They know that if any community abolished all re ligious instruction, all preaching of the Gospel and of Christian prin ciples, the moral sense of the com munity will be dulled and finally lost. Lack of the religious sense, the urge toward God and goodness and noble living, is doubtless the cause of domestic troubles today. In its loss can be traced the roots of our economic sufferings today, I believe. Religion, true religion, gives poise, straightforwardness, assurance, faith, purpose, objective, vision to the lives of those who seek it and possess it I believe with the ancient prophet: "Where there is no vision, the people perish."

Message, "Above the Crowd." 7 p. m., Epworth League. 8 p. m., Song service and gospel message, "Getting Better Acquaint ed with God." Are we acquainted with God? We might well ask ourselves this ques tion. De we know Him in intimate relationship? The Psalmist said "As the hart panteth after the wa ter brooks so panteth my soul after Thee, O, God." This is the true cry of the human heart and that inborn thirst can be satisfied. We may know God better from day to day. Just how, we will discuss Sunday evening. Your presence at the service will show your per sonal interest in this vital subject We are always glad to see you at our services and will endeavor to be a spiritual help to you.

Once Despised Tomatoes Now Favorite Delicacies Have you had your tomatoes to day? Once despised and considered poisonous, this versatile vegetable, or fruit If you prefer, is now not only accepted but highly prized by the smart hostess and wise house wife. Because of their richness in vita mins and minerals, particularly Vitamin C, tomatoes are recom mended for the entire family, in cluding the babe of two months who gets his daily ration of strain ed juice, says Cousin Jane of the home economics division of the Oregon State college extension ser vice, who talks to Oregon home makers every day over KOAC. There is no end of ways in which they may be served, and no meal of the day to which they are not a valuable addition. Tomato juice, strained and sea soned with salt and pepper is rap idlv becoming a nnnnlnr nuhamuta for orange juice in the breakfast menu, r or mncneon or dinner a delicious cocktail is made as fol lows: Tomato cocktail: Roil of cooked tomatoes, two stalks of celery, chopped, 1-2 of a green pep per ana i i-z teaspoons salt for about 5 minutes, and rub through a sieve fine enough to keep back the seeds. To the tomato juice and pulp add 2 tablespoons tomato cat sup, 1 teaspoon onion pulp and 1 teaspoon horseradish. Stir well and chill. Beat before serving. Pour into small glasses. or a main lunoheon dish the fol lowing recipe is a favorite: POSTAGE RATES RAISED.

The Oregon range and livestock report for August first issued by the Bureau of Agricultural Econ omics, U. S. D. A., gives the follow ing report for the north central section including Gilliam, Hood River, Morrow, Sherman and Was co counties: "Plenty of hay and other feed crops. Holding of cat tle and calves depends on finance. Many would increase cattle if it were not for lack of money. No local demand for old ewes. It is a question of what will be done with them. Many will go to slaughter." EPISCOPAL LADIES TO SERVE RODEO MEALS. The Women's Auxiliary of All Saints' Episcopal church decided at their last meeting to serve meals on Saturday only this year.

Thru his own personal experience and thru his close contact with the great masses, General William Booth, founder of the Salvation Ar my, knew the kind of religion it takes to satisfy the human heart He defined it as consisting of four things: First, a sense of the con scious favor of God. You feel that He loves you; that He holds you in His arms; (His Word tells us that) Second, the consciousness that He has made you to be good thru His Indwelling Spirit. If the world poured into your lap all its wealth and honors, you would be a miser able creature unless you could feel and know that you were good and honest and pure and true. Third the consciousness that you are do ing your duty to the Lord and to those about you. Fourth, the as surance that all is going to be well There may be difficulties in the way now, but if we have the assurance in our hearts that all will be well in the end, it will bring satisfaction. These are things we all long for. At least in our more sober and quiet moments. We want to be in favor with God. We want to feel that we are what we ought to be, and that we are doing what we ought to do. In the midst of all the trials and troubles of this present life we want to feel and know that there Is a brighter and happier life beyond. These things represent the deepest longings of our souls. The only satisfying religion is the religion that will answer these longings. There is such a religion, and that religion is the religion of the Bible, of Jesus Christ. The religion re vealed to us In the Word does In deed satisfy all the longings of the soul. It answers every want and aspiration of the human heart, and it tells us of a God who "satisfleth the longing heart" It tells us how to make the most of the life we now live, and how to make sure of the life to come. And this satisfy ing religion we can all have with out money and without price, on the simple condition that we con fess Christ and submit ourselves and our ways to Him as our Lord and Master. "Whosoever shall con fess Me before men, him will I con fess before my Father who is in Heaven." Matt 10-32. If you have not a Church home we Invite you to come and be at home and worship with us. You will find in this House of God a deeply reverent attitude of wor ship; every detail In harmony with the Scriptural plan; in our Bible School you will find a class for Complete Funeral Services in our New Home $50 and Upward A respectable burial without charge to those who cannot pay, from Cases' Chapel Montgomery's Beauty Shop RODEO SPECIALS Finger Wave 50c Specials on all work Phone 1412 TUM-A-LUM TICKLER Published in the interests of the people of Heppner and vicinity by THE TUM-A-LUM LUMBER CO., Phone 912 VoL 31 Heppner, Oregon, August 27, 1931.
