What Do I Owe God?
"Know ye that the Lord, He is
God; it is He that hath made us,
and not we ourselves; we are His
people, and the sheep of His pas
ture." Psalm 100-3.
WHAT DO I OWE GOD? This
is not a Thanksgiving sermon, but
just a very pertinent, timely ques
tion. As we look about us, even in
the midst of a world depression,
and compare our national situation
with that of some of the other
countries of earth, especially Rus
sia, we might well pray for a clar
ity of vision that would enable us
to see just what we have in this na
tion, and why we have it
Whatever we have of freedom, of
comfort, of concrete evidences of
national progress and well-being,
we nave because of what we have
so far had of the preaching of the
Gospel of the Son of God, and the
influence of Christian ethics in our
land; and whenever and wherever
that has been done away whenever
and wherever men have discarded
and thrown overboard God and
Christ and Christianity, we have
witnessed the most sordid and un
savory and terrible evidences of
what human nature is without the
leavenine effect and infliion of
Christianity. Whenever God is left
out of humanity's plans and life,
the beast in man eventually comes
uppermost, ana wh nave thp rirah
apeciacie oi educated, refined
beastialitv on the loose.
And we OWE GOD a tremendous
debt of gratitude for what w hn
maae possiDie ror humanity, when
humanity will avail itself of M'
provision: which debt ran nniv hp
paid by the giving of our lives to
uie service or the Christ That is
what we OWE GOD ourselves!
.wave you a Church hnm? Tf
not, we invite you to come and
worship with us. Test the welcome

Housing; . an endorsement
There is one announced nrno-rorvi
of the Federal Administration to
which I can heartilv subscrihe
There are others, but I have in
mind the idea of Government aid
for the rebuilding of the "slum"
dwellings of the cities and the de
velopment of "subsistence farms"
for many city folks who, under our
present industrial system, are un
able to survive when off the payroll,
except by charity.
I know an increasing number of
men who have found their way to
self-support in the depression by
getting hold of a piece of land with
some sort of a house on it and so
managing to get by, even when un
employed for two or three years.
But most city workers haven't the
means or the knowledge now to
adopt that method of self-support.
They have to be taught and to be
financed; but unless Government
does that, we shall never have a
permanent solution of our most im
portant social problem, that of un
employment. Horrors of war
We speak of the horrors of war,
but few moderns realize what a de
vastating effect the wars of ancient
times had.
It was only about three hundred
years ago, when the early colonists
were beginning to settle America,
that the Thirty Years War ravaged
Germany until the population was
reaucea irom 24,000,000 to less than
4000,000. Not ail were killed in war,
of course; most died of starvation.
Utter lawlessness prevailed outside
of the fortified cities. No person's
life was safe, and canibalism was
actually practiced, according to
James W. Gerard, former United
States Ambassador to Berlin. Hu
man flesh was even exposed for sale
in the markets of Heidelbereg in
1648, said Mr. Gerard in a recent
published statement! Polygamy was
legalized, to repopulate the land
speedily.
Ambition and religion were at the
root of the Thirty Years' War. We
are hardly likely to have another
great war over religion, but ambi
tion may promote one at any time.
Foresight . . for humans
I never cease to marvel at the
foresight of the little heasts anrt
birds in storing up food for the
winter.
Just now the red saulrrels and
the blue-jays are fighting daily in
me Dig oak-tree in my fence-line
sight I've never found out where
the jays hide theirs; they fly south
ward toward the woodlot and come
back quickly for more, so they prob
ably have a hollow tree for storage
place. But I discovered the red
squirrels' hoard the other day in a
corner of a disused barn loft behind
a Dile of lumber and iiinU Thr
was at least a bushel of acorns and
hickory-nuts laid away for winter
iouaer.
Too bad human beings can't be
as forehanded as the squirrels. We
are too dependent upon artificial

The unfortunate mice were drop

lem of mouse-proofing a Ford seat
cusnion is still unsolved.
Foxes . . . reds and grays
I have seen more red foxes this
year than in several years past, in
tne vicinity or my farm. Neighbors
tell the same storv. Rut thp am
fox, which is the onlv native ktibcIoo
in the United States, seems to be
aisappearing in the North.
Every red fox on this continent
is the descendant of animals origin
ally imported in George Washing
ton's youth, to furnish snnrr fr.r
fox-hunters. The first, ware lnnopH
on Long Island; later some were
orougnt to Maryland. Now there
are red foxes everywhere east of

2,000 men have been put to work
directly on NIRA projects under
public works allotments within the
national forests of Oregon and
Washington, according to an
nouncement just issued by regional
forester C. J. Buck. Portland.
Additional thousands of men are
at work throughout ,the United
States producing and transporting
me steei, wooaen, and other ma

Allotments of $1,761,210 for the

states.
These three allotments are parts
of the three funds provided under
the NIRA for improvement work in
all of the 148 national forests of the
United States.
Forest work under the develop
ment roads and trails allotment will
be concentrated on the construction
of truck trails and horse and foot
trails which lead to the develop
ment and broader use of forests and
contribute greatly to fire protection.
The national forest plan for a net
work of these ways of transporta
tion and travel, trade, touring, and
fire fighting, will be greatly ad
vanced by the new work.
Most varied are the activities
coming under the forest improve
ment fund, which covers practic
ally all other kinds of fire control
and administrative improvements
except roads and trails. The work
includes timber disease and Insect
control, timber stand improvement,
planting, estimating timber re
sources of certain areas, revegeta
tion of forest ranges, rodent con
trol, eradication of poisonous plants,
erection of buildings, development
of water supplies and recreation
camps, surveys of boundaries, im
