This decision netted the fishers 2 cents per pound for fish the first night and 5 cents for bright fish and 2 cents for tules the balance of the season. CAPITOL BUILDING STARTED Salem—R emo v » 1 of shrubbery marked the beginning of construc tion on Oregon's new $2,500,000 building to replace the one destroyed by fire. Exactly one year, six months and 15 days elapsed between the tragic destruction of the 60 year old statehouse and the transplanting of the shrubs to make ready for the ex cavation for the new one. Preliminary work will require about 45 days and the contract for the superstructure will be let early in November which will require about two years to finish. Astoria—The four year task of re- building the south jetty was finished recently by the completion of the three months task of consolidating the jetty—the pouring of an asphalt sand mixture In between the big boulders. Grants Pas«—Started less than five years ago at the junction of the caves and Redwood highway and hav ing juat recently obtained a new port- office named Cave Junction by the government.

Lags Behind. ollywood , calif . - H What I saw at the national air races in Los Angeles set me to thinking. It’s a dangerous thing—thinking is—and nearly al ways upsetting to the peace of mind. I’m thinking that no longer is the navy our first line of defense nor the army the second line. I’m thinking that the chief peril— and the chief securi ty from that peril— is in the air now. And of all the great powers, we are the most woe fully behind in the matter of airplane protection. It would take us two years to make our air force Irvin S. Cobb as strong as it was four years ago. It would take in finitely longer than that to make it as strong as the present footing of any country which conceivably might attack us. Well, we could always lock the stable after the horse was gone—if the stable hadn’t been blown flat. Rules for Long Life. JAPANESE doctor has landed with the word that, by follow ing a few simple rules, a fellow lives to be 240 years old. He didn’t say, but I figure this applies only to those of us who never go motor ing. The principal rules are to sleep on a hard mattress with a metal pillow and learn to wriggle like a goldfish. Whether, in time, the be ginner sprouts gills and a fantail is not stated, but it sounds plausible. I’ve already spoken to a tinsmith about a pillow and, on awakening this morning, made a few experi mental wriggles. My intentions might fool some people, but I don’t believe they’d fool a goldfish, unless he’d been drinking or something. I’m afraid my finning was faulty. Besides, I didn’t feel any too digni fied—greeting the dewy dawn by behaving goldfishiously. A -- War Names Confusing. NJ OT content with coining eighty - ′ or ninety separate different and confusing names for the oppos ing forces in Spain, the correspond ents have gone and thunk up a plum bran’ new one—extremists. Maybe, though, the point is well taken. The dispatches would seem rather to indicate that quite a num ber of persons over tl.ere have late ly shown a tendency to verge to ward the extreme. And picking out the various par ties mixed up in the French politi cal mess—that’s another tough job. Only today I ran into this one—left centrist. It sort of suggests Ty Cobb in his palmy days, covering the outfield. But—that couldn’t be be cause the French don’t go in for baseball. They prefer dueling as be ing just as exciting. I must say it’s discouraging just when, by following the news from Paris, I’m beginning to get the Reds unscrambled from the Pale Pinks, and the Mauves from the Helio tropes, and the Holy Rollers from the Merry Widows, to have this add ed complication bust right in my face. Looks as though I’ll have to start it all over again. • • • How to Reduce. 4 VER since the day when I was — known among friends as Thy roid Deficiency Irvy, the human de tour, I’ve fought the losing fight against overweight. I tried dieting and became the best friend the American spinach in dustry ever knew, yet had only to turn my head to brag and I re gained, practically instantaneously, what I’d lost. I exercised until I had the jitters, but when I’d taken off half a pound, it bounced right back while the doctors were reviv ing me. But now I’ve found the absolute ly certain cure for reduction. It’s working in a moving picture with little Jane Withers. When she sets the pace you can track yourself back home by your own perspira tion. Another engagement with Janie and I could be rented out as my own living skeleton. • • • Has Memories of Valencia. I T’S hard to concentrate on pen- - nant fights in the big leagues when we read of war-racked Spain, with 100,000 already dead. I hope the lovely old city of Va lencia has escaped the common ru in. Seven years ago I was travel ing around and about over three continents, and at every stop had listened morning, noon and night, to the song “Valencia.” So a friend and I made a pilgrim age to the town in which presum ably, the thing originated, and Va lencia turned out to be the one spot on the map where nobody had ever played that tune or sung it or hummed it or whistled it, or even heard of it. It was indeed a relief. So we stayed a week. The sherry-and- egg before luncheon was also quite good—all but the egg! IRVIN S. COBB. ©WNU Service.

GOLDEN TEXT—They rehearsed all that God had done with them, and how he had opened the door of faith unto the Gentiles.—Acts 14:27 PRIMARY TOPIC —How the Good News Spread. JUNIOR TOPIC—How the Good News Spread. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP IC—Christianity Reaching Out. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —The Spread of Christianity in Western Asia. Review Sunday provides a needed opportunity to determine not only whether the class mem bers have learned and retained the truth taught, but. what is of equal importance, whether the teacher has accomplished the purpose in mind at the beginning of the series. What was the aim set before us for the three months? “To lead the student to an understanding of New Testament Christianity, and to beget in him the desire and purpose to live the Christian life and to win others to faith in the Lord Jesus." The test which we apply as the twelve lessons of the past quarter pass in review is As a student, have I seen in the spread of Christianity the opera tion of a gospel of salvation which is the power of God for my salva tion? Or, if I am saved, have I been stirred to a more earnest Christian life and a real passion for the salvation of others? As a teacher, have I really used my opportunity to win the mem bers of my class to faith in the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ? Have I brought to bear on the lives of those in my class who are Christians the Word of God, stir ring them to holiness of life and zeal for God’s cause on earth? If we cannot reply in the af firmative, should we not ask whether our efforts to teach have been largely fruitless? But let us not be discouraged, for even as we now review the lessons we have studied together the Holy Spirit is ready to do His work and apply the truth to hearts and lives. To many teachers the prepara tion and presentation of the review lesson is the most difficult of any during the quarter. To the student who has given little or nothing to the preparation of weekly lessons it is often a rather disconnected and uninteresting recapitulation of twelve lessons. A suggested method of gathering up the essential teachings of these lessons is to group them around the following seven points: The spread of Christianity after our Lord’s departure into the glory was distinguished by the fact that 1. It was by the preaching of a faith that began and continued in the power and demonstration of the Holy Spirit. God honors such preaching and teaching in our day. 2. It was a spiritual movement that demonstrated its God - given power by thriving on persecution. One wonders whether much of the activity of the church in our day has not fallen into the doldrums of pious respectability. Perhaps we need a little persecution. 3. It was not the propagation of theological theory or of a religious sect or party. It was a movement of the Spirit of God which saved men, and saved them to win and serve their fellow-men. True Christian service is nobler and more sacrificial than any non Christian social service. 4. It was a movement in which laymen as well as religious work ers had a place. Philip the lay- man served with Paul the apostle. Lay men and women let us be awake to our responsibilities and privileges. 5. Difference of opinion was not permitted to hinder God's work. Do we know enough to let God work among us, even if he does not work just as we think he should ? 6. The missionary spirit of the preacher was carried over to the convert. This is a succession which God has continued to our day. Are we co-operating and helping it forward? 7. The gospel is tor all men, Gentile as well as Jew, whether yellow, red, black, or white. The great commission is still our com mand and our authority to pray, give, and go, that all men may hear the gospeb of the Grace of God.

Back to the Land For Contentment There’s a Difference A conservative puts two and two together and so does an optimist, but the conservative has the two and two. What we call "charm” is founded on kindheartedness. You can depend on that virtue. In ruling, better be careful. Minorities have a way of suddenly becoming majorities. It is as easy to waste hard earned money as it is if it is a windfall. Brilliancy Amuses No one has the moral right to “talk cynical” who can’t do it brilliantly. The condition of being hard- boiled is incurable and seldom even concealed. The book that nobody noes—the checkbook. rnrri TALL: A man went to the country to find contentment —and found only more unrest. It is the commonest of mistakes. People seek content ment in other places, not knowing that if they are to find content ment, here or there, they must first have the capacity for it in their own souls. For it is inner and not outer. Nevertheless, I know well many cases in which men and women, returning to life in country places, simple living, a certain amount of manual labor (not to exhaustion) and, above all, stillness, have been able to reconstruct their lives.— David Grayson in Cosmopolitan.
