STUDENTS ORE g 1 o (H^)N PUBLISH^Etry A^sVci AT I 0 M WHICH CROSSROAD SHALL WE TAKE? Two young boys of 16 years entered The Herald office this week under custody of an officer. They had robbed an old man who had befriended them of $7.00 in cash. They had been fairly clever with their trick but the arm of the law has long fingers. These boys were not of the illiterate type, but were clear minded, smart—but had chosen the wrong crossroad in life. This week many boys are making decisions in re gards to school, jobs, or doing something useful— the crossroads are many. Hermiston is experiencing a mild building boom. Following the beginning of the new Safeway build ing is a new telephone structure, a new residence, and several other smaller construction jobs. Things are looking up. The call of the wild broke out in earnest in many parts of the state this week. To a Hermiston lady goes the honor of killing the first deer in this section.

The Golden Text was, "My flesh and my hearth faiieth: but God Is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever” (Ps. 73:26). Among the citations which comprised the Lesson-Sermon was the following from the Bible: “ Love not the world, neither the things th at are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the F ather is not in him. For all that Is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and th lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world ' (I John 2:15, 16). The Lesson-Sermon also includ ed the following correlative pas sages from the Christian Science textbook, “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures” by Mary Baker Eddy: “So-called material existence affords no evidence of spiritual existence and Immortality . . . . Jesus reasoned on this sub ject practically, aad controlled sickness, sin, and death on the Hammer Mills The Model 10A and Model 14A, with 10 and 14 inch throat*.

When Columbus discovered Amer ica he was making a voyage in search of spices. In fact, much of the early exploration of the world was based on the hunger for the fragrant spices of the Tropics, ac cording to a writer in the Prairie Farmer. In 1937 the United States spent more than 12 million dollars for im ported spices. Chief among the vari ous spice imports amounting to nearly 40 per cent of the total were various kinds of pepper. Second in importance was mustard. Cinnamon and its near relative, cassia, from Ceylon, China and the Indies; gin ger, mostly dried roots from Jam ai ca and West Africa; nutmeg and its wrapper, mace, from the East and West Indies; cloves from Madagas car and British East Africa, all came in in surprising quantities. There is a great deal of art in volved in the preparation and har vesting of these spices. The inner bark of the cinnamon or cassia must be cut from two-year-old trees if the spice is to be of the best qual ity. It must be stripped, rolled and fermented with the most exacting hand care. Mace, which is the cov ering of the nutmeg seed, must be cut from each nutmeg by hand. Yellow tumeric, which gives color to the popular mixture of spices known as curry, is the ground-up root stock of a plant closely related to ginger. Cloves and caper blos soms must be gathered before they burst into bloom, and spice berries and black peppercorns just before they are ripe. Black and white pepper come from the same peppercorns. If the entire berry is ground, the pepper is black; if the black outer coat is stripped off, the mild white pepper results. The fiery cayenne is made by grinding the small pods of a plant related to the tomato. Paprika is similar but comes from a plant with much milder flavor. Utoiversity of Oregon,— Federal aid for students, through the N a tional Youth A dm inistration, will again be available a t the U niversity of Oregon, and applications for g ra n ts are now being received, it was announced here by K arl W.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCHES TWO NEW JOHN DEERE Columbus W es Searching For Spices on His T rip heals or his spirituality. Under standing the nothingness of ma terial things, he spoke of flesh and Spirit as the two opposites,— as error and Truth, not contributing In any way to each other's happi ness and existence” (p. 356). Theories attempting to account for the presence of salt in sea water are rather speculative and governed largely by the particular hypothesis advanced for the origin of the globe itself, notes a writer in the Indian apolis News. A few geologists are of the opinion that most of the salt went into the primeval ocean prac tically at its formation. It is more commonly assumed by geologists, however, that such salt is derived from the decomposition of rocks by flowing and percolating waters which finally deposit their burden in the sea. This is certainly the source of a large part of the salt in the ocean. The sea is constantly receiving salt-laden water and at the same time losing water by evaporation. Since little, of any, of this salt rises in the vapor, the salinity of the ocean is gradually, though im perceptibly, increasing. It is not probable that the increase would be appreciable within any historic pe riod. Many inland lakes are salty for the same reason. The streams flowing into them pass through soil and rocks which contain salt. There is no salt in fresh water lakes because the streams flowing into them pass through regions con taining little or no salt. Romans Had Names for Dogs The Romans had names for dogs, too, and their names were not so very different from our names. Their groups were canes villatici (house dogs), canes pastorales pe- curaii (shepherds), canes venatici (sporting dogs), pugnaces or belli- cosi (fighting or war dogs), nares sagaces (dogs which hunt by scent) and pedipus celeres (swift dogs which run by sight). Our groups are sporting dogs, which includes all the bird dogs; hounds, which includes hounds which run by scent and those which run by sight; working dogs, which includes the shepherds and some of the ancient war dogs; ter riers, a new division since Roman days; toys, which includes the min iatures that were doubtlessly classi fied as house dogs in ancient days, and the non-sporting group, which includes everything else, some of which probably were house dogs, some probably not yet bred and some, while extant in some form or other, unknown to the Romans. ‘Coast of Dead Ships' Navigators and steamships may have dispelled the idea of a ship graveyard in the Sargasso sea, but the Namib desert in southwest Afri ca, known to seamen as the “Coast of Dead Ships,” remains a very real thing to send shudders down the spines of modern mariners. Ship masters are warned to give the treacherous shore a wide berth. Government charts are not depend able because the sand dunes are constantly shifting so that rolling sands may be piled where naviga ble water swelled a short time be fore.
