Jackson County Is Rich
In Lumber, Mines, Stock, Real
Estate and Personal Property
but the thing of greatest importance to the citizens of this county is the wel
fare of the young people and children. How easy it is to become so busy with
THINGS that we neglect PERSONS. We have passed through a very exact
ing season, fraught with dangers and hazards. How diligent we have been ;
and how great the cost to be able to reap a greater harvest ! If diligence, sacri
fice and close application have paid in material things which shall perish,
how much more will they pay in spiritual values, in rich lives which are to
exist forever?
Jackson County Is in the Forefront
in the matters of good roads , electric appliances, telephones, etc. ! Hundreds
of men are employed to construct and maintain these necessities. Good work.
How much more important that the highway of right living, with all that that
means, be made possible and plain to every boy and every girl which we are
responsible for. ' '
Jackson County Justly Takes Pride
in her splendid schools which are entrusted with tho task of instructing and
directing our youth in the preparation for useful living, clean, intelligent citi
zenship in this life. OF HOW MUCH GREATER IMPORTANCE are those
forces which deal with the heart as well as with the mind and body which
are concerned with life eternal as well as with this earthly existence; and
which prepares for citizenship in the kingdom of God?
Jackson County Is Harvesting
one of her richest crops of fruits, of such varieties and quantities tluit out
siders can hardly believe the truth. Of vaptly greater value to' the world that
now is, and that which is to come, is "The fruit of the Spirit (Gal. 6: 22, 23) "
in tho lives of nion, women, boys and girls.
Jackson County Has a Growing Number
of good people who are able to "tune in" on distant stations, as well as with
our own KMED. So, also, in order to meet the spiritual needs of the hour she
must have a growing number of people who are able to "tune in" with God
on the throne, in the name of His Son, Jesus Christ, by the help and power of
the Holy Spirit.
Jackson County Has One of the Finest Airports . '
on the coast. Ships will soon bo "taking, off" from this new port for distant
ports. Let this be an inspiration to us to help make it easy and natural for
these who must answer the last summons to "take off" safely for the eternal
port, ,
This Is Rally Day Time
In All Our Churches
Shall we give the same measure of diligence in gathering in individuals for
for the kingdom of Christ, as we give to material things? The Inspired Word
of God Is the Only Force Which CAN DIRECT A LIFE RIGHT FOR TWO
WORLDS.
When you have done everything else which you can do for your child, if you
fail to make it possible fcr that child to know Jesus Christ, what shall your
other things mean in the END?
Let us rally for our Sunday Schools, Young People's Societies, Prayer-meetings
and CHURCH SERVICES EVERYWHERE.
Go somewhere to BIBLE SCHOOL.
Take some one with you. i -. . ;
Take your BIBLE as your textbook.
Insist on studying the Bible.
"On time" should be your well-kept motto.
Cultivate a respect for the opinions of others.
Do not insist upon your own interpretation
Be open-minded enough that God can teach you, if men cannot.
Boost for the cause of God and right.
Encourage others to have respect for spiritual values.
The Union Sunday School of the Federated Churches
of Central Point, Oregon
will hold its first RALLY DAY of the season on S'.intlay, September 22nd,
ith a good program. YOU ARE INVITED.
School opens at 9:45 A. M,
