This system, installed through the cooperation of the Oregon Experiment station and County Agent C. R. Briggs, is being used by Mr. Hall to irrigate 10 acres with a supply of water amounting to only about 70 gallons per minute.

Grass Seed Growers Organize Astoria A cooperative market ing organization is being formed in this county to handle the bent grass seed of the members. The capital stock type of organization has been decided upon as the best for the local circumstances. Bent grass seed has become an import ant seed product in this county where a type of grass somewhat different from that in most other bent grass sections is being grown. Market demand has been slow for the past year but it is believed that a good marketing organization will aid in moving the crop.

"Arise therefore, and be doing." I Chron. 22-16. This was David's parting word to his son, Solomon, who was to suc ceed him on the throne of Israel. Solomon was a gifted, brilliant yung man, who might be tempted to rely on his wit rather than work. That would mean failure. There fore it was indeed wise counsel his father gave him when he said: "Arise therefore, and be doing." Wit, shrewdness, craftiness, with out work, never accomplish any thing. We are very fortunate in any degree of genius we may pos sess, but if we depend on our gen ius rather than our industry, we are destined surely to fail. If we think, we shall remember we have seen many a brilliantly endowed man surpassed by the man of plod ding industry. Genius is not to be altogether dis counted. Without a certain degree or genius, no amount of labor could nave produced a Shakespeare, a Newton, a Beethoven, or a Michel-' angelo. But some of the greatest of men have been the least believ ers in the power of genius. They have been men of toil and persever ance, holding on with indomitable will to their objective. Back of all success and achieve ment lies an astonishing amount of incessant toil. It may sometimes seem that men are succeeding and accomplishing things with very lit tle effort, but this only seems so. If ever there was a man who could do things with ease and facility of touch, it was Sir Walter Raleigh. Yet it was of Raleigh that Queen Elizabeth said: "He could toil ter ribly." Whatever genius successful men may possess, yet they depend on their work more than on their gen ius. When asked for the secret of his success, Turner, the great paint er, replied: "I have no secret but hard work." Not genius, but work, hard work, accounts for most of our successful men. And moreover, the greater part of the contributions to the good of the world stands credited more to hard work than to exceptional genius. And successful Christian living is not genius, but constant, loyal, consecrated HARD WORK. No person ever lived a successful Chris tian life by sitting down to sigh, or to sing themselves away to ever lasting bliss; nor by going about with head in the clouds, in a sort of rarified, super-critical attitude re member It was the Pharisee that set the fashion for that sort of thing; and suffered stinging rebuke from Jesus Christ. There are folks today taking glad advantage of the present world situation to weep and wail them selves into places of ease and do nothing. The Old Testament gives us the word for success: "Arise therefore, and be doing." Jesus Christ said: "Be ye doers of the Word and not hearers only." To be a successful Christian one must WORK at the Job all the time! Do you have a Church home? If not, then we invite you to come and worship with us. In our Bible School you will find just the inter esting class for yourself; and in the deeply Spiritual, yet friendly atmos phere of our services of worship, you will find what you need most for the upbuilding and maintaining of Spiritual Morale. For the com ing Lord's Day the sermon topics are: For the morning service, "Christ the Saviour." For the eve ning service Miss Ruth Benton, a returned missionary from the In terior of China, will speak. This will be a most interesting and worth while opportunity to learn of missionary problems and situations in China. METHODIST CHURCH. GLEN P. WHITE. Pastor. Mrs. C. R. Ripley.

Wisdom and understanding these are the principal things, not riches, not knowledge, not comforts, not happiness. All these have their desirable sides, but wisdom is above them all and points the way to get ting the best and most they offer. James declared that those who lacked wisdom were to seek it from God. If we stop and consider the problems of the present time, with Him whose ways are not our ways and whose thoughts are not your thoughts, we shall gain wisdom not to be had by reading the daily pa per. Because we live In a day of crisis, when our generation is stand ing at the fork of the roads and must by its choice determine the way for those who are to come af ter us, it is vital that we should seek that wisdom which is alone the gift of God. The wise man fears God and works righteousness and only he is wise. "Happy is the man that findoth wisdom and the man that getteth understanding." Prov. 3-13. "Sho is more precious than ru bies, r.nd all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared un to her." Prov. 3-15. FOREST FACTS Rlnndhnnnds are being success fully used by the U. S.
