May the skies be clear above and the hearts and minds of the Ameri- can people be filled with hope and confidence as they enter another year on Easter morning. Rural Electrification. The REA has just announced from Washington allotments of $1,236,- 200 for rural power projects in six states. One is in Oregon in Lane county with an allotment of $108,- 000, providing 87 miles of lines, and serving 420 customers. In the same public announcement the REA has stated that it has lent or earmarked a total of $52,987,478 for 270 such projects throughout 42 states with 50,000 miles of lines serving 175,000 customers. The allotment ot 8132,000 for the Hermiston rural electrification pro ject to serve over 500 farmers over 120 miles of lines is expected soon. The total service so far granted is but a drop in the bucket in the great need and demand for farm electrification and equipment will reach into the billions. In this county are 7,000,000 farms and only one out of nine, or less than a million, are supplied with electric lights and power. Building the lines is a small item compared with all other features. Wiring, light fixtures, motors, at tachments, refrigerators, properly built machinery, automatic pumps, plumbing facilities and other equip ment not required in urban homes, will keep factories busy and men em ployed in almost limitless ways. It will finally exceed the great in vestments of the automobile indus try. And it is on the way, just as sure as any other great development in American life. Politics and cor porate control cannot stop it. Every home owner is demanding this ser vice. It is the great big ground swell of the people of this nation. Rivers will be dammed, minerals will be mined, forests will be inva- ded, factories will be enlarged and millions of men will find employ- ment before the Job is complete, The American farmer is fully allot- ted the enjoyments of electrical eco nomy and comfort, so long permit ted his city cousins.

The Golden Text was, "I have declared, and have saved, and I have shewed, when there was no strange god among you: therefore ye are my witnesses, ealth the Lord, that I am God” (Isa. 43: 12). Among the citations which com prised the Lesson-Sermon was the following from the Bible: “God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth” (John 4: 24). The Lesson-Sermon alzo includ ed the following correlative pass- ages Com the Christian Science textbook, “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures,” by Iary Daker Eddy: “The Israel ites centered their thoughts on the material in their attempted wor- chip of the spiritual. To them mat- tor was substance, and Spirit was shadow. They thought to worship Spirit from a material standpoint, tut this was impossible . . . We worship spiritually, only as we cease to worship materially” (pp. 351, 140).
