In a recent issue of the Eugene Register-Guard there is a two col umn story regarding Bob Harbison, a former student in the lone school, who has turned a hobby into a prof itable income. Bob had carved some little toys out of Port Orford cedar for his small daughter, Dorothy Ann, and they attracted so much attention from friends who visited the Harbison home that, having been idle for some time since the call for university-trained archi tects has reached a low ebb in the past few years along with many other vocations, he decided to make more animals. He carved cats, el ephants, squirrels, deer and other animals, making them about five inches high. These were offered for sale in an art shop in Eugene and their appeal was so great that he was able to make and dispose of 45 articles in the two months before Christmas. Among others who saw, appreci ated and bought his little carvings were members of the staff of the art department of the University of Oregon, and when the Civil Works program included projects for artists, Mr. Harbison was com missioned to carve a series of Ore gon animals for the university's art school building. Two, a mother cougar watching her cubs play, and a mother bear on her hind feet with two cubs beside her, have been finished. These figures stand about fifteen Inches high when mounted on a base. Mr. Harbison plans to extend his work to include game boards, ash trays, book ends, etc. His work is very highly praised In the follow ing words: "The design of the ani mals Is distinctive. There is a whimsy and delicacy of the design that appeals perhaps more to ad ults than to children. The squirrel eating his nut almost moves while you watch him. All the grace and beauty of the deep woods is reflect ed in the deer." lone friends of the Harbison familv will h criori to learn of the success of Bob In his new work. LEXINGTON By BEULAH B.

CCC FOREST ARMY PASSES IN REVIEW IIIIIIIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII At Heppner CHURCHES (Continued from First Page) of these are getting a training that will be of utmost imDortance if the need of their services should ever arise during war times.

Tentatively a C. C.

Oregon is among the states with a large signup in the regular cam paign, getting 82 per cent of the 1,027,000 acres that make up the Dase average amount seeded an nually from- 1930 to 1932. Most of the unsigned acreage in this state is in relatively small holdings in the diversified farming districts west of the Cascades, according to the Oregon State College extension service. In reopening the campaign the AAA officials say they have receiv ed so many requests from growers that they be given a second chance that it is believed a large addition al signup will be had, especially east of the Mississippi river. The per centage of signup is given as 70 per cent for the country as a whole. The new signers will receive the same future benefits that original signers received, but will not get the first payment of 20 cents a bu shel on their allotments such as have already been made to early signers. Signup of additional wheat growers may start at once, though there will be no new campaign Those who desire to join will go to their county wheat control associ ation where old blanks are being adapted for the new use. "The allotment plan provides a measure of crop insurance," points out Chester C. Davis, administrator of the farm act Contract signers are assured of their allotment pay ments even though the crop is a failure. The wheat contract calls for making full adjustment pay ments on the 1934 and 1935 crops, if prices on these crops do not reach parity. The payment already made, and the remaining one of 8 cents a bushel less local administrative costs, are for the 1933 crop." New signers will be eligible for the remaining 1933 benefit but they will have to eliminate any excess seeded acreage above the 85 per cent of past production allowed in the contract covering the 1934 crop. The method of bringing this excess acreage down is left to the individ ual, but it must be accomplished in advance of the pre-harvest inspec tion. Average farm price of wheat In January was 69.4 cents a bushel, while the parity price as computed by the government, needed to give farmers a fair exchange value, was $1.02 1-2 a bushel. The government reports that oth er wheat exporting countries are taking steps to comply with the in ternational reduction agreement, and that the United States will take whatever action is necessary to make the 15 per cent reduction this country agreed to, ' CHURCH OF CHRIST JOEL R.

Where Rest Is Found "Oh that I had the wings of a dove! For then I would fly away and be at rest Lo, then would I wander far off and remain in the wilderness." Psalm 55:6-7. David had been having a lot of trouble His enemies had been mak ing it warm for him; which added to his already heavy burdens, he felt pained and oppressed under his load. And it was with this feeling that he uttered the cry recorded in the verse above. "I wish I could leave all this tangle; this perplexity about mon ey; the apparent everlasting need for struggle," said a business man, tired and harassed. He had a feel ing akin to that of David. A feel ing we have all experienced at one time or another. For there are times when we do wish we could get away from all our cares and troubles and be at rest. Well, this is a wrong feeling. For the normal man or woman can find rest only in the place and line of duty. Never by fleeing from it. An old writer said this about Dav id's wish: "David should have been praying for the strength of an ox to bear his troubles, not for the wings of a dove to fly away from them." The necessity for courage, for ac tion, for work, for struggle, Is something from which none of us can ever escape: That is, if we would play our proper part in the world's affairs. And the best way in all the world to meet all such situations as is pictured in David's cry, is in the strength of the Spirit of Jesus Christ in the lives of men and women. There and there only is real rest found this side of the grave. Do you have a regular place of worship? If not then we invite you to come and worship with us.

A plea for a true "dem ocracy in education," which will not only provide for the needs of the average and the below average stu dent, but for those of superior abil ity as well, was made here by Dr. C. V. Boyer, acting president of the University of Oregon, at the meet ing of Oregon chapter of the Amer ican Association of University Pro fessors. Dr. Boyer was honor guest at the meeting, at which he pre sented his views on higher educa tion In an informal talk. President Boyer based his talk on his definition of a liberal educa tion, which he said is "an education that expands the capacities of the individual harmoniously." Such an education, he pointed out, not only supplies a man with learning on many subjects, but leads him to In tegrate the material from the va rious fields so that his Intellectual life may be both coordinated and enriched. To this end the president advocated further development of courses such as the survey courses here, that would actually teach stu dents this coordination. The president stressed especially the ideal of excellence, which he pointed out, has often given way to the Idea of "getting by." "We stress excellence on the athletic field, and there is no reason why this stimu lus could not be carried over into the classroom and so inculcated in to the student that he would carry it on in his life work," Dr. Boyer said. Dr. Boyer was introduced by Dr. W. J. Kerr, chancellor of higher education, who declared that the new president had the full confi dence and support of the chancellor and the board of higher education. NOTICE OF SALE OF COUNTY LANDS.
