ed that 800 CCC workers were still
patroling and guarding the smolder
ing fires in Coos, Curry, and Doug
las counties.
Oceanlake—The mysterious theft
of small valuables from several

on fire in a mill pond is a sight to be
remembered according to Joe Holec
who saw such a scene during the re
cent fire in this region.
Blend — Blasting on the Warm
Springs highway exposed a huge lava
cave under the roadway. It Is about
thirty feet wide and its walls and
floor are covered with mineral salts.
Pendleton—A small puppy was the
finder of a purse containing four sil

little expense.
Forest Grove—Guy Raymond, fire

northwest is shooting upward at an
ever increasing rate. So far 102 per
cent, gain is shown this year over

more secure—reduction or curtail
ment of income often makes rent an
extreme or impossible burden.

seryman, has crossed a Golden Rus-

tory to installation of machinery and
cutting shakes and shingles. Twen
ty-five men will be employed. This

Lesson for November 15
Apaches Going Sissy.
ANTA MONICA, CALIF.—
A missionary on an Arizona
S reservation
says the Apache, once
the fiercest of the tribesmen, is
going plum’ sissy, and when a
movie company took a group of
Indian extras on location these
original Americans, being stripped
for action, got terrible cases of
sunburn. They’d worn clothes so
long their tender skins couldn’t
stand the heat.
There’s a lesson here, although,
so far as the victim is concerned,
it’s probably too late
to do anything about
it. Once we’d backed
the noble red man
into a pair of $3
pants we had him
tamed. Sitting Bull,
in war bonnet and
buckskins, was a
splendid savage,
but, wearing over
alls and a hickory
shirt, he became
just a brunette farm Irvin S. Cobb
hand.
The derby hat may be the home
liest creation ever devised for hu
man use, but it’s the crowning tri
umph of civilization, and the most
pacifying for alien folks, as wit
ness Haile Selassie, looking now
rather like a Filipino bellhop on his
Sunday off.
Humans Becoming Monkey-Like.
A professor of psychology ad
vances the thought that mankind, in
ages to come, may be headed for
the all-fours posture which once the
species did use—if you accept the
evolutionary theory, which most of
us do, because we like to think of
some people we know as having had
monkey-like creatures for ancestors.
We say to ourselves, the poor things
aren’t entirely over it yet.
But the learned gentleman who’s
trying to lift the veil of the future
overlooks the lessons of the present.
He should study New York and
Newport society when European
royalty is in our midst.

Denouncing the Baby Derby.
Whon Prime Minister Hepburn de
nounced Toronto's so-called baby
derby as “the most revolting, dis
gusting exhibition ever put on in a
civilized country” a lot of us gave
three loud, ringing cheers.
That eccentric Canadian million
aire, who left his fortune for a con
test seemingly devised to prove that
the human species has a strain of
Potomac shad in it, unintentionally
came near to making cheap and
sordid the loveliest thing on this
earth, which is motherhood.
To see families engaged in a race
to bring babies and yet more ba
bies into the world, merely on the
hope of getting paid for it; to realize
the certainty of vulgar squabbling
over the prize, to know that inevita
bly lawsuits will absorb most of
the money—well, there are many
who oppose birth control. But de
liberately fostered birth uncontrol
may have its drawbacks, eh, what?
• * *
The Fate of Big Bolshevists.
Here’s what has happened to the
original Bolshevist leaders, the fa
thers of the Soviet setup:
Trotsky, in exile and due to stay
there if he values his health; Kam-
eneff, exiled, recalled, executed last
August; Zinovieff, executed; Rykoff,
demoted, arrested and trial impend
ing, hence regarded as bad insur
ance risk; Radek in the same fix
and said to be worried, and I
wouldn’t blame him; Tomsky, com
mitted suicide to avoid something
even more unpleasant; Kiroff, as
sassinated ; Mikoyan, got out in time
and stayed out; Bukharin, under
suspicion and arrest impending,
odds against, 9 to 5; Evdokimoff, ex
ecuted; Smirnoff, executed; Lenin,
died a natural death, but then Lenin
always was different; Stalin, Bub-
noff and Krylenko, all going strong,
but you never can tell, so would
do well not to play too far in ad
vance.

War Vs. Preparedness.
As one who saw the first few
months and the last few months
of warfare on the Western front,
I’m like nearly every other man or
woman who witnessed those things
—I hate war.
It’s the next morning of drunken
glory. It's a stench, an obscenity,
a vain wastefulness, an unutterable
indecency. It’s a machine which
sucks in at the hopper the beauty,
the youth, the hope of the world and
spews out from the spout the fin
ished product — broken bodies
blinded eyes, maddened brains;
dead men and dying men and ruined
men.
But because we are against war
and because we believe the best in
surance for continued peace is prop
er preparedness in times of peace,
and because we behold half cf civili
zation on the edge of war again and
wonder where they’ll strike after
they’ve torn one another's throats,
we do sort of worry to see our
country cut down on its defenses.

We now come to the close of the
third missonary journey of Paul.
As he came to Jerusalem for the
last time in his eventful life he was
warned by a prophet, Agabus at
Caesarea, that if he went up to
Jerusalen he would be bound and
given over to the Gentiles.
Heroism of the highest and noblest
type has characterized the follow
ers of Christ in all times. Paul
was not one to be deterred from
what he believed to be God’s will
by the probability that he would
suffer. Like all who follow the
Lord Jesus Christ in truth he was
I. Fearless, in Practice as Well
as Theory (Acts 21:12, 13 , 27-34).
Many there are who sing, “I’ll go
where you want me to go, dear
Lord, I’ll be what you want me
to be,” or smoothly repeat consecra
tion vows, who are frightened away
at the slightest difficulty, and who
feel that they must have been mis
taken about the Lord’s will for their
life at the first indication that his
guidance would interfere with their
comfort or convenience. No such
cowardice or vacillation was found
in Paul.
In the first place, he did not intend
to have a holy purpose weakened
by disheartening talk. How many
young men and women have left
a place of sacred meeting with God
aglow with the purpose of serving
Him in the foreign mission field,
and then permitted an uninterested
friend or relative or employer to
talk them out of it.
In the second place, we find Paul
carrying through his purpose. When
he came to Jerusalem he was coun
seled to enter the temple to take
a Nazarite vow, and thus to satisfy
his enemies. Some have com
mended Paul for thus pacifying
those who withstood him, others
strongly condemn him for yielding.
His purpose was good, but his act
led to unfortunate results. An in
furiated Jewish mob saw him in
the temple and wrongfully accused
him of defiling the temple by bring
ing a Greek into this holy place.
A riot ensues, and Paul would
have been killed had not the Ro
man captain and his band rescued
him. Was Paul afraid? He im
mediately turned his arrest into an
unsurpassed opportunity to give a
testimony and to make a defense
of his ministry (See Acts 21:40-
22:22). He admonished others to
“be instant in season and out of
season” (II Tim. 4:2); he practiced
what he preached. He constantly
urged faith in God, steadfastness
in the midst of trials; he gave full
proof of these things in his own
ministry.
In all this he did not seek his
own glory, or any honor for his
own name. The Christian hero
knows nothing of heroism for pub
licity’s sake; he does not serve
with an eye on the “grandstand.”
Paul was actuated by a deep and
a genuine
II. Concern for the Salvation of
His People (Rom 9:1-5).
The Christian worker who knows
nothing of “great sorrow and un
ceasing pain” in his heart over the
plight of the unsaved does not fol
low in the Pauline succession, nor
does he know the heart of the Man
of Sorrows.
Paul surely did not wish himself
separated from Christ, but was so
deeply moved that he said he “could
wish” it—if it were not wrong—in
order to save his brethren.
Do we i.eed a revival of com
passion in our churches, and in our
own hearts, a yearning over the
multitudes about us who are as
sheep without a shepherd?
A Golden Link
A mother’s love is indeed the
golden link that binds youth to age,
and he is still but a child, however
time may have furrowed his cheek,
or silvered his brow, who can yet
recall with a softened heart, the
fond devotion, or the gentle chid-
ings, of the best friend that God
ever gives us.
