RURAL TEACHERS MEET.
(Contributed)
The Morrow county rural teach
ers held their first meeting last
Saturday, October 15, at the Cecil
school with Miss Constance Bork,
teacher, acting as hostess. The Ru
ral Teachers' club, now beginning
its third year of activity, was organ
ized with the aim of bringing the
rural teachers together so that
their specific problems might more
easily be solved with the aid of fel
low teachers, and new devices and
suggestions be exchanged.
The members met Saturday
morning and spent the day in mak
ing plans for the year, receiving im
portant announcements and explan
ations of various activities, mater
ials and contests, interchanging of
ideas and individual plans, and the
election of officers for the club.
The club, however, regretted the
absence of Mrs. Lucy Rodgers, who
on account of illness, was unable
to be present.
The officers of the club elected
for the coming year are: Gwen
dolyn Evans of Balm Fork, presi
dent; Rosella Doherty of Alpine,
vice-president; Theresa Tabor of
Gooseberry, secretary - treasurer,
and Lorraine Thompson of Morgan,
historian.
At noon a pot-luck luncheon was
served.
All teachers of rural schools au
tomatically become members of the
club and are expected to cooperate.
Meetings of previous years have
been well attended and every mem
ber can feel certain that the time
spent has been both enjoyable and
profitable.
The next meeting of the club is
scheduled for December 10 at the
Balm Fork school. Some interest
ing demonstration work is being
planned. Since these meetings are
being considered an alternative for
the county teachers' institute which
is being partly abandoned, every
member should make an effort to
be present
Wet Streets, Bad Brakes
Take Heavy Toll of Life
With the arrival of fall and its
ubsequent rainy weather and short
er days, Oregon motor vehicle op
erators are urged by Hal Hoss, sec
retary of state, to recognize certain
motoring hazards which were re
sponsible for 23,590 accidents and
790 fatalities in the United States
last year. Mr. Hoss, who is charg
ed with the operation of the drivers'
license law, has instructed his ex
aminers to point out the dangers
of wet and slippery roads, defec
tive lighting equipment and faulty
brakes.
"The accidents attributable to de
fects in equipment can justly be
charged to human Irresponsibility
as an accident due to errors of
omission or commission by a driv
er or pedestrian," states Secretary
Hoss, "Owners of cars should not
have to be forced to maintain their
cars in good condition because the
selfish interest of self preservation
should suffice as a motive," Hoss
added.
Automobile accident statisticians
estimate vehicular defects the
cause of at least 15 per cent of all
motor vehicle accidents. Defective
brakes were reported most fre
quently last year as causing acci
dents which were charged to the
condition of the vehicle. All other
defects were less numerous than
either defective brakes and lights.
Poor visibility and wet pavements
coupled with bad brakes and faulty
lights, increase the dangers of driv
ing during the long rainy season of
autumn and winter, Secretary Hoss
declared.

The Seriousness of Living.
"Bestir thyself." 2nd Sam. 5-24.
Speaking of this life, Renan said:
There is nothing serious at the
bottom." Very unfortunately, there
are many who take this view of
life. The seriousness of living seems
never to nave occurred to mem.
They seem satisfied to just take
life easy. They are never found
BESTIRRING themselves in any
heroic action. No serious purpose
seems to possess them. They seem
to have largely the spirit of buffoons.
Joseph Cook, the famous Monday
lecturer of Boston, said on one oc
casion, "Gentlemen, this life, up to
the edge of the tomb, is no joke."
Well, many, for too many, forget
God, forget Jesus Christ, forget
Christianity, forget the Church and
everything for which the Church
stands, (till death or some untow
ard phase of life drives them to the
portals of the Church) ; and TREAT
LIFE AS A JOKE; act as though
life were only a brief round of sil
ly pleasure, (instead of being prep
aration for either eternal life or
eternal death beyond the grave)
and refuse to BESTIR themselves
in serious, normal living.
Well, when people treat life a3
a joke, they will soon find that life
will treat them as a joke.
Life is becoming more and more
a thing of terrible seriousness. Not
that there is no place for fine.
clean fun and amusement in life,
There have been few more serious-
minded men than Abraham Lincoln,
Yet fun was a large element in his
life. But we are not to live merely
for fun. Life, and the privileges and
responsibilities of life, are far too
Important to be frittered away in
foolish, irresponsible fun.
To live thoughtlessly, carelessly.
frivolously, is to miss the high end
of our being. It is also to miss the
real joy of living. At the best, fri
volity is only a temporary diversion.
It affords no lasting pleasure
Life's enduring pleasures: its deep
est joys, and sweetest, are known
only to those who live Christian
lives; earnest, sober, worthwhile
lives! Be sure of this:
Life is not meant to be spent in
idleness, or too much of it in play.
So, "BESTIR THYSELF."
Have you a Church home? If not
then we cordially invite you to
come and worship with us. This

$40,000,000 Road Bond
Debt Shown to be Paid
Nearly 40 million dollars will be
required to meet both principal and
interest payments scheduled during
the next 24 years for the retirement
of highway bonds issued by the
state of Oregon, according to Hal
E. Hoss, secretary of state, who has
just completed a biennial report on
the condition of the highway bond
account If no other highway bond
issues are made, the present sched
ule of payments would call for full
liquidation of the highway debt In
the year 1956, Hoss's statement
shows.
Outstanding bonds charged to the
highway account are listed at $29,
454,250 while interest payments are
shown at $10,305,923.78, making an
aggregate debt of $39,760,173.78. To
October of this year, the state de
partment has recorded payments
of $15,745,750 in principal, and $18,-
547,824.51 in interest since 1917.
To retire the $45,000,000 in bonds
issued for highway purposes since
the year 1917, the state must pay
more than half of that amount, or
$28,853,748.29 for interest.
