MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON. TUESDAY. SEPTEMBER 17. 1935 PAGE THREE PASTOR PLEADS FOR FIRM TRUST IN GOD'S GRACE Rev. Wolford A. Dawes of the Firtt Baptist church, read for the Sunday scripture lesson. Psalm l2, and too for his text, two statements from the psalm, "His hesrt Is fixed, trusting In the Lord," and "His heart Is es tablished, he shall not be afraid." "The result," said the pastor, "Is untold blessings coming to the man whose heart Is established in God. " "No longer & victim of circum stances , a heart fixed in God leads a hapy life. Religion Is based on cir cumstances. In the last few year:, many have found their faith fixed on man. not on God. i "Many in days of plenty wandered from God; others In time of want have found they are not fixed." Rev. Dawes said he knew a noan who had been "favorable to God. but when the test came, he went away from God, even cursed Him. - "Job was an outstanding example, his heart was fixed In God. In the first five verses of the story, he was a man of great wealth, but that did not affect his heart. Job was great set of all men of the east. He fear ed and reverenced God. He hated evil, shunned evil. Job could not and would not forget his God. "He was a religious leader of his family. How many of us have taken our children to God as Job took his children? Wealth did not estrange him from God. "Poverty did not turn him when possessions and children were taken from him, but grief did not turn him from God."' Rev. Dawes said he knew of a, mother who "demanded that God spare her sick son. God spared him and that mother lived to see that son die in an electric chair. "In the book of Job, a conversa tion Is shown between God and Satan. God seta a limit. The dovll could only go so for. Our God Is above all. "Many turn from God when friends are unjust. In Job's life, through every kind of suffering and trouble he stood firm for God. "An old lady, helples, not able to move or feed herself, was an in spiration to others because her heart was fixed In God. May we ever rest "Pith our hearts fixed In God." .

A.Thlerolf of Medford and D. B. Stone of Table Rock. "It is Imperative that action be taken relative to a number of bridges iff the county," said Judge Day. "During the depression they have de teriorated and are now In dangerous condition. If anything should happen the county would be facing a dam age suit, entailing more expense and cost than saved by putting off needed repairs. When bridge timber starts to rot and weaken, there la nothing to do but put In new tim bers, as a matter of good business and safety to the public." The Tellef fund the past year has approximated 980.000, and Judge Day estimates It will be the same for 193S. Some federal and state aid will be received, but the main bur den will still rest with the county.

The Lake Creek secondary highway will also receive consideration from the budget committee, and conside ration Is being given to a plan to make It a WPA project. The county court and state highway engineers recently conferred on the project without definite conclusion. The road now represents a heavy invest ment, both to the county and state.
