Opportunity today
Whenever I hear young people
complain that there are no oppor
tunities for them I begin to wonder
Just what they mean. Often I dis
cover that they think of "oppor
tunity" as a chance to jump right
out of school into a well-paid, easy
job, with short hours, long week
ends and generous vacations.
It is true that that sort of oppor
tunity no longer exists. What is
more, it never did exist
There is always a place, though,
for the intelligent, industrious and
ambitious boy or girl who really
wants to work, is not afraid of long
hours and low wages to start with,
and has good health and good
habits.
In these times it often takes more
time to find such an opportunity
than It did a few years ago, but the
seeker who gives up after one or
two discouragements demonstrates
that he is not the sort of a person
employers are looking for.
camps assigned to the Soil Conser
vation Service in the NortliT.'cst
and because of facilities for in
spection and the attachment of ex
tra equipment, officials said.
Convoys of trucks have already
been dispatched from Pullman to
Boise, Idaho; Worley, Idaho, and to
Astoria, Oregon. The trucks to be
used by the camps are either one
half ton "pick-up" trucks, or two
ton trucks for heavier duty.
At the present time there are 20
SCS-CCC camps pending comple
tion in the Northwest area under
the direction of the Pullman office
of the Soil Conservation Service.
They are established in type study
areas where there is sufficient worn
to be done to warrant a 200-man
camp. These camps are a part of
the nation-wide movement to re
build our depleted soils.
Maintaining a vegetative cover
on the soil aids in reestamisning
soil structure and also creates fa
vorable mechanical barriers against
soil erosion that will absorb rain
and lessen run-off. Ravine and
gully control in grazing and farm
ing areas are further types of ero
sion control to be practiced in the
anti-erosion movement

Bible School 9 :45 a. m.
I have a friend who started his
business career at the same time
that I did, in the same town and at
the same wages $12 a week. Now
he is the head of one of the largest
business corporations in the world.
I asked him once how he had
climbed so far.
"Luck," he replied. "That's how
most folk got wherever they are.
But don't misunderstand me. When
I say luck' I don't mean blind
chance. Luck has to be stimu
lated." He stimulated hs own luck not
only by mastering his own job but
by preparing himself all the time to
step into the next higher job. He
made it a point to keep in perfect
physical condition and to indulge
no bad habits. He studied ways
to make a good impression on his
superiors and associates.
"Window-dressing is as impor
tant for the individual as for the
store," he said, "but you've got to
have the goods on your shelves."

A stranger passing some mines
n Pennsylvania, asked a little boy
why the field was so full of mules.
These mules are worked in the
mine during the week," replied the
boy, "and are brought up Into the
light on Sunday to keep them from
going blind.
A person will become spiritually
blind unless he comes into the
Church one day in seven and view3
the light of the Word of God, and
Christ, who is the light of the
World.
Help
for ambitious
Under my friend's direction, the
great corporation which he heads
takes pains to help its 60,000 or
more workers to "stimulate their
luck." Every employee who shows
signs of special ability, and of am
bition to get ahead, can count on a
helping hand.
"The only way to run a big busi
ness successfully," my friend once
said to me, "is to show everyone in
the organization the door of hope.
and encourage them all to find their
way through it That, and to put
just as much in their pay envelopes
as can possibly be done.
Boy
now on job
The son of one of my village
neighbors has been doing odd jobs
around my country place lor three
or four years, after school, Satur
days and in vacations. Last month
he graduated from our town high
school, with high marks.
"What are you going to do now,
John?" I asked him. He dropped
the handle of the lawnmower and
straightened up. ,
"I'm going to college," he said.
"I don't know how, but I'm going.
I've got to work my way dad can't
help me, with my seven younger
brothers and sisters to bring up
but I'll find a way! I'm going to
hitch-hike to New York and look
for a job."
I smiled at his enthusiasm, but
did not discourage it Neither did
I encourage the idea of a country
boy seeking work in New York
these hard times.
"If you get there, look me up,
John," I said, and gave him my
New York office address. Sure
enough, a week later John showed
up.
I thought of my friend of whom
I have just been talking. I wrote a
note to him and gave it to John.
"Try your luck there, I said.
Next day I got a letter from my
friend. The head of a great com
pany had personally interviewed a
green country boy and he had
given him a job!
Now it is up to John.
Stimulation
the asset
It is easy to say that John was
lucky in knowing a man who knew
a man whose company hires a lot
of boys. The answer to that is that
I wouldn t have sent John to my
friend if John had not been "stimu
lating his luck" so far as I am con
cerned. for four or five years.
Unconsciously, John had been
demonstrating to me that he has
the qualities of intelligence, ambl
tion, resourcefulness, industry and
most important of all character
which could not fal to open the
door of opportunity for him.
. I was glad to hand him the key
to that door, for I believe John will
make good use of his chance. All
I did. though, was to shorten th
time it might have taken him to find
his opportunity.

Bible Critics Misunder
stood There are, of course, thousands
of fragments of the Bible or parts
of it of more or less value. Among
these are certain "palimpsests," or
manuscripts, which later fell into
the hands of those who wanted the
parchment for other purposes and
erased the Bible text and wrote
other books instead. Chemical pro
cesses have been used to restore
the Bible text and in some in
stances valuable readings have been
discovered.
This recital of the way In which
manuscripts have been found brings
us to the mention of a class of men
of whom the average layman knows
very little, and most of that little
is wrong. These are the Biblical
critics. "Criticizing the Bible!
What columns of rhetoric have
been printed, what floods of ora
tory have been poured out by those
who could not have told, to save
their souls, what a Biblical critic is
or does. '
There are two kinds of Biblical
critics. The terms lower and high
do not mean that one group
claims or is admitted to be more
important than the other, much less
that there is an assumption of ar
rogance on the part of those that
are "higher," but that one kind of
study follows the other.
The lower critic is a man of tech
nical skill in the deciphering of an
cint texts and manuscripts. He has
critical ability, that is, the ability

to judge critically, for criticism is
nothing more or less than the sci
ence of correct judgment
To the average layman a manu
script of the 14th century may
seem as ancient as one of the
fourth. It may be more soiled and
show greater sign of age. But the
critic does not look simply at the
wear and stain. He is a judge of
parchments, of methods of tanning
skins, of kinds of ink, of styles of
making letters. He distinguishes
between "uncial" and "cursive
Greek; between "pointed" and "un
pointed Hebrew. These lower
critics are not widely known; they
are not highly paid. Their work is
a strain on the eyes and a tax on
the mind, and they dread publicity.
So mainly they bleed within their
armor and are silent, but all the
time their patient work is clearing
up the obscurities in translation
and giving us a better knowledge
of the Bible.
The other group of searchers are
the literary or historical or higher
critics. Who wrote these sacred
books? Ezekiel claims to have
written his own, and Baruch is de
clared to have been Jeremiah's
scribe. We may infer that most
of the books of the prophets were
written by the men whose names
they bear. But all the rest of the
Old Testament is anonymous. Peo
pie have rushed in to declare that
certain books were written by cer
tain men. Most of their guesses are
guesses.

1 Next Week: Our Debt to Jerome,
ANOTHER GREAT ICE
AGE MAY BE ON WAY
If
It Happens It Will
in Distant Future.
Be
Boston. Another great Ice iif:e
may be on its way, similar to that
of more than half a million years
ago when a frigid glacier sheet slid
over Europe and the American con
tinent, but don't be alarmed, if it
happens it will be in the distant future.
This was the assertion of Dr.
Harlan T. Stetson, Harvard astron
omer, in a radio address in which
he discussed the effect of the west
ern dust storms upon solar radia
tion. Dust storms and volcanic
eruptions might even help to bring
about a new Ice age, he says.
It was Doctor Stetson who a few
years ago revealed the results of
his study of more than 5,000 earth
quakes, and the finding that the
gravitational pull of the moon was
responsible for practically all the
deep-seated quakes, Including the
one In India last May which took
thousands of lives.
Doctor Stetson pointed out that
during the great Ice age, our sun
and the planets were at a spot In
space which appears through tel
escopes as a large black patch like
a horse's head. In the constellation
of Orion. Since then, the sun has
been speeding away from that point
at the rate of 400,000,000 miles
year.
Doctor Stetson said:
"Perhaps back in those dim days
of geologic history, when the giant
Ice sheet slid over Europe and the
American continent, the sun and
earth were enveloped In a cosmic
dust cloud so dense that the par
ticles screened off the sun's heat
to a disastrous degree, lowering
our temperate climates to below
the freezing point the year round.
Who knows but that in some dis
tant future day the sun may again
penetrate one of these cosmic
clouds of dust, and the earth fall
In temperature until civilization
will migrate Into the tropics In or
der to continue Its existence?"

Syndicated Sermon.
To within living memory Id Eng
land, such a large number of min
isters were unable to prepare t
sermon that the secret writing and
syndication of these discourses by
professional writers was quite
business, writes John Duerr, Ox
ford, Ohio, In Collier's Weekly. In
1870 London still had 12 concerns
that weekly supplied sermons to
about 1,500 preachers, the copies
being printed "in imitation hand
writing" In order to fool the con
gregations. Feeble-Minded Lack Judgment
The feeble-minded may have good
memories, but they are Invariably
lacking In judgment; while those
with a hereditary trait of Insanity
have generally poor memories, but
only in msrked cases Is the Jndg-
ment Impaired. From this, says
an authority, comes the working
formula that the feeble-minded have
good memories, but are lacking In
ludgment. and that the Insane
reason well, but have poor memories.
Wood Duck Clever Bird
The wobd duck Is one of the most
accomplished birds In America. Be
ing a member of the waterfowl
group, It can swim very well. It
can dive, too. The wood duck also
Is a fast flyer. Although It cannot
actually climb a tree, It can walk up
an angle. Nature, however, has
given It another accomplishment.
The wood duck can land in a tree
or on a stump. Inasmuch as this
species likes to nest above the
ground, this trick is necessary.
Deportation
American-born citizens cannot he
deported, but there are cases on
record of the deportation of natural
ized citizens. In these cases the ac
tion Is taken only after a court trial.
Aliens, of course, can be deported
for certain crimes, Illegal entry, an
archistic endeavors or if It can be
shown within five years after arri
val that the aliens became public
charges from causes existing prior
to arrival.

Fish Are Used to Clear
Lake of Mass of Weeds
Pelping. -The center of the cam
pus of Yenchlng university, Asier
ican missionary supported Institu
tion near Pelping, Is a shallow or
namental lake. Some time ago It
was noticed that this lake was
rapidly becoming choked with
weeds. Ornamental qualities were
greatly reduced, and freshmen
raised objections to being thrown
Into the weedy waters.
Faced with the problem, the
business department purchased a
large number of "grass fish." These
fish, true to their name, are vege
tarians, spurning worms, flies, and
the small fry when they can browse
off succulent seaweed or nibble at
grass hanging In the water.
Like other grazing animals,
"grass fish" have prodigious appe
tites and multiply rapidly. Within
a surprisingly short period the lake
was cleared of weeds.
