Leson-Sermon In all Churches of

10.
The Golden Text was, “Blessed
be the Lord God, the God of Is-
rael, who only dceth wondrous
things” (Ps. 72:18).
Among the citations which
comprised the Lesson-Sermon was
the following from the Bible:
“Thy way, O God, is in the sanc
tuary: who is so great a God as
our God?" (Ps. 77:13).
The Lesson-Sermon also in
cluded the following correlative
passages from the Christian Sci
ence
textbook, “Science and
Health with Key to the Scrip
tures”, by Mary Baker Eddy:
“Divine Mind is the only cause or
Principle of existence. Cause does
not exist in matter. In mortal
mind, or In physical forms . . .
Belief In a material basis, from
which may be deduced all ration
ality, Is slowly yielding to the
Idea of a metaphysical basis,
looking away from matter to
Mind as the cause of every effect"

organizations than we show our
selves. The summer is coming on,
but that should not cool our inter
est, but rather "warm” us up to a
greater zeal.
Some stay away because they have a
farm and lots of stock:
And therefore can not spare the
time to mingle with God’s flock,
Some stay away because their power
to domineer is lost:
Some because they can not be a dic-
tator or a boss.
Some stay away because their cloth
es are looking old and shabby;
And some because their special type
of piety is flabby.
Some stay away because their hat
the milliner’s not finished;
And some because their liking for
the preacher has diminished.
Some stay at home to entertain, and
some to get the dinner.
Some because they’re good enough,
and some because they're Sinners.
Class yourself. Think it over,
and be at church!

USED IN DROUTH CRISIS.
The unprecedented drouth in the
middle westtern states is greatly af
fecting the program of agricultural
adjustment, according to word re
ceived by the extension service at
Oregon State college. Not only is
the far-flung organization set up by
the AAA being pressed into emer
gency relief service, but adjustment
programs and even contract require
ments are being rapidly modified to
meet the new conditions.
Flexibility of administration of
the various AAA activities makes
possible immediate adjustment where
necessary, farm act leaders point
out, an example being the designa
tion of many counties In the affec
ted area as drouth counties where
in contract signers will be released
from certain restrictions on feed
crop acreage or from grazing re
strictions on contracted acreage un-
der the wheat or corn contracts.
Plans for an adjustment program
for beef cattle have been deferred to
provide for possible coordination of
that program with any necessary re
moval of surplus cattle as an emer
gency drouth relief activity. Relief
buying of livestock is being started
at once under the direction of E. W.
Sheets, newly appointed director of
drouth relief under tht AAA. Mr.
Sheets was formerly for many years
head of the animal industry division
in the department of agriculture.
Speed in purchasing the beef is
necessary because of actual lack of
feed for stock In some of the drouth
areas. The beef to be bought will
be canned for relief purposes.
The advisory committee of 25 on
cattle adjustment plans appointed a
sub-committee of five which has
been working out details of a plan,
which when completed, will be sub-
mltted to the industry in a series
of regional meetings before being
put into effect.
On the west coast interest is be-

Oregon and Washington. There Is
also interest in a move in the early
potato states of the east coast for a
marketing agreement covering pota
toes. The potato business is threa
tened this year with a heavy in
crease In acreage planted which usu
ally means distress prices. Whether
potato marketing agreements might
be extended to the west this year is
not yet known.
