"GREATER love hath no man VJ than this, that he lay down his life for his friends." Th Kmnip Insrrlntlon of A Car negie Medal, a truth established through the ages, tells one of tne attributes of true greatness. It was rhnn to mark heroes and hero ines who might otherwise have .their deeds unrecorded in tne sanas nf time. Lawrence S. Case was but one of several million ordinary American boys as he followed tne peacerui pursuits of life in Heppner, and as he helped to gather the fruits from the orchards at Brewster, Wash. But on one Sunday after noon when his sweetheart was ov ercome with cramps while swim ming in the Columbia river, he rose to the ranks of the Immortals for then he made the supreme sac rifice in attempting to save her life. The Carnegie award is the high est civilian tribute that is bestowed upon any individual. That Law rence Case should have earned it Is balm to the bleeding hearts of his parents and otner lovea ones, in losing him they gave him to the world, VALUES THAT MONEY CANNOT BUT. Autocaster Service. COMETIMES we wonder -what J would be the effect if things should go on about as they are now indefinitely. How much worse off would we be as a people if the pres ent standard of income should prove permanent? It all depends, it seems to us, on where you stand when you look at the world. If you're standing on a dollar-mark things are pretty bad right now. But there are other points of view. Why do we want prosperity to return? So we can all have more money. But if we had more money, what would ws do with it? It seems to us that during those boom years when money, for a lot of people, was easy to get, it proved to be pretty hard to hold. And from what we saw and heard and read about what people did with their money, especially people who had never had any experience .with money before, it didn't do many of them much good. On the contrary, it seems to us, it was a genuinely bad influence. And is there any reason to believe that people, speak ing generally, would get any more lasting value out of easy money If boom times came back? We think not Of course, we want everybody to Sunday School Lesson International Sunday Sohool Maroh U IE BITS COMPORTS HIS DISCIPLES John 11:1-18 Rev. Samuel D. Price, D. D. We are still in the upper room where the Passover was celebrat ed. Then the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper was Instituted af ter Judas left to complete his act of selling Jesus for thirty pieces of silver. Before they went out into the night Jesus made the most cel ebrated after dinner address of all time. For the full content read John 14, 15 and 16, and follow this with a study of what in reality is the prayer of our Lord, as recorded In John 17. All these messages are rich in spiritual teaching and af ford comfort in times of most se vere need. Do not confine your study to the limited lesson text in dicated above. There is much about heaven in direct teaching in our chapter. All the disciples were greatly dis turbed in mind for they were aware of some momentous event that was about to take place, In the midst of this company Jesus stands with perfect mental and spiritual poise. It is a serious mistake to think that one who is highly spiritual cannot face the affairs of life in a most practical manner. Because of His personal equanimity there is A sublime challenge in the opening words: "Let not your heart be troubled." Reason for this confi dence on the part of the disciples was grounded in dual faith in both the Father and the Son. His very being is a pledge that all that He had taught about the future state was so. Though he was about to go away In physical person He would always be intimately with them as a Spirit They could talk to Him Just as really as during the past three years. They would be able through .Him to work even greater spiritual miracles for the good of man. There would be a wondrous com pensation to His going away In the flesh aa they would experience the active presence of the Holy Spirit have a Job. We not only hope that but we expect that conditions will change so that there will be no un employment to the extent of wide spread distress and privation. And we realize that there will always be some people who will have more money than they know what to do with, and who will continue to spend it foolishly. But it does seem to us that in the effort to make ev erybody rich our system has not succeeded in making anybody very happy; and we wonder whether we have not somehow, as a people, lost our grip on the more enduring things of life in the struggle for the mighty dollar. There are spiritual values which are immensely more important than riches, which are not at all de pendent upon wealth, which, in fact, are likely to be destroyed by the possession of more money than is needed to keep the body warm and fed. Perhaps these lean years may prove to have had A disciplinary value in turning people's thoughts away from mere pleasure to the soberer but more important things of life. THE SALES TAX. Autocaster Service. A GENERAL sales tax on every commodity except the staple foodstuffs appears to be inescap able. Revenue must be raised to pay the nation's running expenses, and there are few sources of taxa tion that will not have run dry be fore the mounting cost of govern ment will have been met The sales tax is a rather painless way of making everybody pay his or her share of governmental costs. If it is levied in such a way that ev erybody who buys anything real izes that part of the purchase price goes for taxes, it may have the ef fect of making the ordinary citizen tax-conscious, and that will be a good thing. The ultimate consumer pays the taxes now, but he does'nt know it. The average man thinks there is some way of taxing the rich which cannot be passed 'on by the rich to the poor. There isn't any such sys tem possible, and the sooner that Is generally realized, that all taxes bear heaviest upon the retail pur chaser, whether he buys a pair of shoes, an automobile or the rent of a home, the sooner the ordinary man will bgln to take an interest in public affairs and demand more efficiency for his tax money and greater economy in public office. W. C. T. U. NOTES. HART A. NOTSON. Reporter. Some of the wet members of congress are making wild asser tions to the effect that there is more liquor consumed than was consumed before prohibition was adopted. They can not deceive those who have any memory of the days of the open saloon. The ap proximate average yearly consump tion of distilled liquors, wines and beer from 1910 to 1914 was 22.43 gallons for every man, woman and child in the United States, accord ing to the Department of Commerce statistics. According to the most reliable estimates from official sources, the average consumption for the year ending June 30, 1930, including home-made products, was slightly more than 7 gallons. This shows a decrease of about 70 per cent This is not such a bad show ing, and it is very different from tne increase claimed by tne wets. No intelligent person will be lieve that more liquor is sold by bootleggers than was sold by the saloons. In 1908, there was one re tail liquor dealer for every 333 men, women and children in the United States. The yearly expendi ture for liquor before prohibition was three times as great as the cost of operating our public schools and twice the cost of running the Federal Government Hence, it Is simply nonsensical to assert that more liquor is consumed now than before prohibition was adopted. Commander Evangeline Booth of the Salvation Army says that be fore prohibition in New York City alone from 1200 to 1300 drunks a night were brought into the Salva tion Army "homes," while now the number does not average more than seven. This, remember, is in a city where the local police are under no obligation to assist in the enforce ment of the prohibition law. Before prohibition there .were ninety-eight "Keeley Institutes" for treatment of the liquor habit while today there are only eleven. The others have closed because there is no patronage. This fact alone ab solutely disproves the assertion of the wets that there is more drinking now than before prohibi tion. Drinking to excess has un doubtedly diminished more than 70 per cent The condition among in dustrial workers has improved to a very marked degree, as is shown by the testimony of many large em ployers. No law Is observed or enforced 100 per cent The law against reck less driving is broken many times dally. Does anybody think it should be repealed? The Federal law against taking a stolen car into an other state has been violated hun dreds of times every year. Does anyone advocate leaving this up to the state to deal with alone with out any Federal aid? Is anyone asking for the outright repeal? L a k v 1 e w Recommendations that the substantially reduced hay rations being fed to Lake county dairy herds because of the severe alfalfa hay shortage be supplement ed with coarse ground corn, the cheapest concentrate available at present are being issued to dairy men of the Goose Lake valley by Vic Johnson, county agent Hlllsboro The use of more alfal fa, roots and corn for grain are recommended by County Agent W. F. Cyrus as a means by which Washington county farmers can cut costs on their dairy farms. Alfalfa seed is cheaper than ever before and this is a good year to make ad ditional seedings, says Cyrus. ' The Safest Place for Tl,. Ihe FAMILY k DDOOdDD? J0HNJ0SCPH6ANE$,M.D An Old-Fashioned Letter Somehow I feel like writing you an old-fashioned epistle this glor ious morning. Mind you, I'm not asking you to agree with every thing I say; while I feel absolutely sure I'm telling the truth, it does not mean that I am doing so; when you simmer a thing down to a solid base, the wisest of us may be tell ing the exact opposite "There's nothing true, but heaven." The pig is the healthiest animal I know of, taken as an individual species; I never heard of the hog being a tuberculosis-carrier. Ha dies of cholera an epidemic dis ease. But, the hog has fewer dis eases in his family than any other farm animal. The best pepsin comes from the peerless digestive tract of the pig! There are many, very many to day, especially among our younger women, that throw up their hands in holy horror, if somebody men tions pork as an article of food! These individuals, If you look at them critically, are amenic, thin skinned, feeble-fingered, and nerv ous. You will find nine out of ten of them eat beef, if they have not already abandoned meats at the command of the faddists, and they are slowly paving the way for tu berculosis, or other serious disease by lowering bodily resistance. I have seen the western farmer in pioneer days, eat cured ham and bacon all his life remain in good working trim until too old, and die of sheer old age. And I have seen the great army of weaklings develop right along with the advent of fresh beef, and its being almost forced upon people by physicians, who themselves have acquired ur aemic poison and blood-pressure and tuberculosis, following the fresh beef fad, I may close this old-time message with the point I have in mind: There is no better strength-building, blood-making, body protecting food than well-cured bacon and .ham! And, everybody who toils BUD'n' BUB 'UortNA Do vmH S ( never ; OH -ThERE rw Money sad! as si t r? ta lf-voixbuv ijji will put the money to wotIc tag and make jobs and prosper- A uiS knows this.
