Precaution is necessary and wise, but there is no cause for a panic. The spider and his home should be destroyed when discovered but it will not prey upon the hum- an race; It limits its feeding ground to flies and insects.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCHES (6Nlod the Only Cause and Cre- 3 ator’’ was the subject of the Leson-Sermon In all Churches of Christ, Scientist, on Sunday, June 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" (pp. 262, 268).

Folks, the public is go­ ing to take no more interest tn these 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!

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- Ing shown in a public hearing on a proposed marketing agreement for Bartlett pear industry of California. 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. BARN DANCE SAT. NITE JUNE 18 New Music I THINK YOU WILL LIKE IT. COME OUT AND SEE FOR YOURSELF!
