'The little foxes, that spoil the vines." Song of Solomon, 2-15. Not the hyena, nor the Hon or tiger of monstrous sins. But the LITTLE FOXES, the SMALL SINS These are the sins that destroy the vines of character. Little foxes soon grow to be big foxes. Little foxes of temper soon grow to be big jackals. Little foxes of innuendo very rapidly grow into big foxes of slander and bitter vl tuperation. The little "white lie" becomes the progenitor of the big black lie. The little fox of petty theft becomes the big fox of felon ious robbery. Little sins (?) creep on us un awares, and often before we recog nize their power and presence they tear down our vines of right think ing and right living. We find our selves thinking and living along lines we once felt and still we know are stepping stones to failure in right living, yet we salve our con science with the silly statement that if the church sponsors it it must be all right. And, ignoring the presence of the little sins we later become the prey to the full grown brood of big sins before we are concerned about our condition, Little insincerities, little infrac tions of the law, the evils we do these are the sources from which have sprung, and do spring, the great masses of vice and crime. Let one little fox of sin into the vine yard of your life and soon others will come flocking in. All evils have a very strong affinity for one an other. One sin is an invitation to a whole train of sins. The soldier who was smuggled into a fort con cealed in a hay cart, opened the gates of the citadel to his allies outside. Every sin we admit into our lives is charged with the same errand: "Open wide the gates when you are inside and let us all come in after you." "Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines, for our vines have tender grapes." Char acter is a very tender, delicate thing. It needs to be protected against every evil, even the small est evil. Keep away the little foxes, and the only possible way to do this is for every person to have his or her life so filled with the things of Jesus Christ that there will be no room for any untoward thing; then the LITTLE FOXES will never get in to spoil the vines of character If you have not a Church home, we invite you to. come and worship with us.

Message, "The Homeward Look." 7:00 p. m., Epworth League. 8:00 p. m., Song service and gos pel message, "Afflictions, God's Use of Them." Scripture clearly reveals that there are some qualities of charac ter that can only be developed by trial. One of these Is faith. I am not speaking now of the faith by which we obtain salvation, but rath er faith as a quality of devout, courageous manhood as you see it illustrated in the 11th chapter of Hebrews: "Beloved, think It not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you," A study of the lives of men who have become preeminent for faith will reveal that they have all been severely tried. George fWatson says that the people who are ac complishing the most for God are people of limited natural or ac quired ability, with scrimped means and frequently poor health. With this truth In mind we can thank God and take courage. If we want to live in the hill country where the air is pure and clear, up where the day breaks sooner and the mellow twilight of evening lingers longest, we must prepare for a rugged climb. "All things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose." Rom, 8-28. You are wel come to all our services. ground to as far as they uncovered it at a depth of sixty feet IU sides have none of the appearance of having been blasted or made with any modern Implements of man. Rather the surface is similar to that of rock work known to have been done by the early Indians In other regions; having a chipped ap pearance. The method known to have been used by the Indians In doing such work was to drill a hole in the rock pack it with lime and pour water on the lime, which gen erated heat and chipped off the rock. If such a process was used, it would have required years of time to make the hole, the magni tude of which has not yet been re vealed. But though man-made or of nat ural origin, there are other pecu liar! aspects that give the hole an atmosphere of age and mystery. Where the hole goes Into the earth the contour of the terrain is even, there being no mound to In dicate that anything had been tak en out of the earth to make the hole. That the hole has been concealed for some purpose is apparent from the fact that in their development work, as far as they descended the men removed six blockades or plat forms at regular intervals of about eight feet These barricades of themselves were peculiar In that the material of which they were composed bore no similarity to any material about the surface. Ap parently wood had been used to hold them in place as charcoal was found in indentations in the rock where they were fastened. But time and the elements, if such were the case, have resulted In decom posing all of the wood except the charred ends. If the wooden braces were burned to size to fit them In place, it would indicate that the work was done by some people who were not availed of modern wood-working imple ments. , At the depth of sixty feet where the development work stopped the men had not yet uncovered the hole's hidden secrets, for they were on top of another platform barri cade as evidenced by the fact that they could push their crowbar through. But having reached the realization of the improbability of its being the Pat Shea mine, the work was discontinued at this point And so the hole has stood for more than a year, a scource of bafflement to a few inquisitive souls. From one of these, F. F. Weh- meyer, district forest ranger, was learned most of the foregoing facts. Mr. Wehmeyer has conduct ed an investigation on hia own ac count, and it was on information from him that the writer visited the hole last Sunday, finding it to be in every respect, so far as his limited knowledge permitted him to discern, Just as Mr. Wehmeyer de picted it To determine if possible how deep the hole might be, the men in the process of their development work ditched the water from the melting snow into it one spring. But though a great quantity of water was run in, all of the water disappeared and the hole never filled. This led Mr. Wehmeyer to the be lief that either another outlet was present, or that the hole descended into subterranean caves. In a search of the mountain's sides he could find no other opening, but in case such an opening did exist there is a possibility of its also hav ing been concealed or that slides or other natural processes have en tirely obliterated it. So, It appears, it is necessary for someone to go on down in the hole to explain just what is the "Pat Shea Mine." And from appearances that someone should be an archaeologist Hundreds of Growers Study Latest Developments at O. S. C; New Variety Promising. Strawberry prices may be ruin ously low, but leaders in the berry production in western Oregon are still Intensely Interested in further ing and improving this industry, judging from the sentiments ex pressed by more than 200 growers and farm leaders who attended the annual strawberry day at the Ore gon Experiment station farm at Corvallis June 3. Most of the larger successful growers from Clackamas, Wash ington, Marion, Linn, Lane and oth er valley counties, together with county agents and vocational agri cultural teachers, spent the day at the farm studying the effects of irrigation, viewing the experiments in insect control, hearing the latest developments on diseases, and es timating the future possibilities of hundreds of new varieties now in fruit Particular Interest centered on the new berry, U. S. D. A. No. 520, which Dr. George W. Darrow, ber ry breeding specialist of the federal department of agriculture, believes will replace the Marshall or Ore gon berry, just as the new Corvallis Is likely to pass the Ettersburg in favor as a canning berry. This berry yielded 9 1-2 tons to the acre at Hood River last year compared with one to three tons for the Clark seedling. It has a fine appearance, ripens more evenly than th Marshall, has a much bet ter plant and Is generally consider ed a higher quality. A number of the growers are already experi menting with it and these reported favorably on It at the field day meeting. Nearly all the visitors came "load ed" with questions and were not backward in keeping at the spec ialist till their queries on spittle bugs, crinkle disease, rhizoctonla disease and scores of other prob lems were answered to the extent of present knowledge of them. Growers expressed confidence in the future of berry growing in this state, believing that conditions will improve for those who are in the business in earnest. 6 (Special) Four Morrow county youths are among those chosen to attend the 1932 citizens mmmij Training camp at this historic army post With four weeks of outdoor living, work and play scheduled to begin on June 17, Lieutenant inu J.
