Those who attended the Candidates Fair were able to meet our candidates and maybe a definite answer to their voting. However, I'm happy to see that our local candidates have not gotten to the lower depths of mud-slinging that Carter-Ford have. There seems to be no longer an interest of what the President will do for his country...just too busy answering each other... Chuck and Kay Marquardt's abode is now quietly serene this week. Kay's mother and father, Carroll and Clara Priestley, Bend, were here visiting and pheasant hunting for a week. The weekend brought Kay's brother and wife, Dick and Ann Priestley, with 2 more couples of friends from Portland. Ferida Ma jeske has just returned from Prineville, where she attended the Patriarch's Militant Rally of the IOOF Department of Oregon, as an Honor Guard.

Coles House of Fashion will be holding their Jack O'Lantem contest this October 27. The kindergarten through 2nd graders get to decorate a pumpkin and maybe win a prize.

This sale always has lots of merchandise marked down from regular stock. A thought, and I hate to be the one who mentions Christmas shopping first, but...by taking advantage of this sale, you could cut down that shopping list and that big, big dent in the pocketbook. The celebrating Methodists felt so lucky that the heavy frost held off just long enough for them to have lovely dahlias from Amanda Duvall's yard in the church on their Centennial Sunday. The dahlias didn't freeze until that very night. Visiting Frances Parker Mitchell and long-time members Louise Moyer Wood and Ella Smith showed that they have kept their weight down enough to wear very old dresses. Frances wore a roaring twenties model, and Ella and Louise wore even 1 older things. In fact, dainty Louise and handsome big John Wood were the best dressed couple. She wore an old, long, ruffled taffeta skirt, fancy white blouse, dainty black shawl and had lovely old accessories, including black mitten-gloves made in the 1890s; John looked great in his fine, dark suit. Visitors at the County Museum have kept Rachel Harnett on summer hours. Last weekend, many Methodists, including Bishop Jack Tuell, had high praise for the museum and the Democrat Gulch School. Rachel says she wants to know when interested out-of-town visitors come. She so graciously will come to open the museum for them.

"If any man would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me." Mark 8:34, R.S.V. A group of monkeys, living in the tall jungle trees of India, were playing follow-the-leader on a long vine that stretched from one tree to another. Just as they were swinging to a nearby branch, the lead monkey spotted two men in the grassy clearing below. The curious . monkeys watched them drive many stakes into the ground, and then tie coconut shells to the stakes. As soon as the men left, the lead monkey, followed by the others, scampered down to the clearing. All around were big empty shells tied by a short piece of cord to the stakes. On top of each shell was a hole just large enough for a monkey's hand. It didn't take long for the inquisitive monkeys to slip their hands into the holes to see what was inside. In each shell was a handful of rice. Eagerly each monkey grabbed all he could hold. But when they tried to pull out their fists filled with rice, their hands wouldn't slip through the small hole. Not wanting to let go of the rice, they held tight and pulled, but to no avail. Soon all the monkeys were jumping up and down excitedly, chattering to each other loudly. When the two men, who had been hiding in the bushes appeared, the monkeys pulled all the harder and screamed out their frantic protests. But none let go of the rice so they could flee. Quickly the men threw nets over them and caught them all. They were put in cages in the back of a truck, to begin a trip across the ocean to spend the rest of their lives as captives in a zoo. You say, Foolish monkeys, why didn't they let go? What about you? Have you let go of those things that keep you from escaping to Christ? Are you more concerned with glorifying self through modern fashions than with the glorification of Christ? Do TV programs so engross your free moments that you are deprived of time to spend with and for God? Your handfuls of rice could be money, approval of your friends above God, the acquisition of property, or a cherished habit to which you cling. Are you so Intent on holding tight to these that you are willing to ' give up eternal life with Jesus? Look at your hands before you blame the monkeys. Are they empty and uplifted to God? Jesus' answer is clear. Deny yourself. Take the cross I put in your hands. Follow Me. Your answer? "Yes, Lord, by Your grace." Lloyd W.
