    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." .

E
AND RELIEF MAIN
BUDGET FACTORS
Road and bridge Improvement and
maintenance, and relief, will be the
main problems confronting the 1935
budget committee, County Judge Ear
B. Day said today. First meeting of
the committee is scheduled "within
the next week or ten days '
The budget committee Is composed
of the county court, and the ap
pointive members. J. W. McCoy or
Ashland, H. 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 county Judge also states the old
age pension will be a large item,
with larger payments, and more, ap
plicants. 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.
Continuance of the rural road oil
ing project will also be a vital road
probtem.
County offices and departments
are now preparing their budget fdr
the coming year.
SCHOOL BUSES EYED
AS SAFETY MEASURE
Th district attorney and state po
lice have started the annual Inspec
tion of school buses relative to me
chanical fitness of the vehicles,
efficiency of the drivers and methods
employed In stopping and starting,
loading and unloading school chil
dren. The drivers will be questioned as to
safety procedure.
The law provides all equipment on
school buses be standard and vehicles
equipped with reliable brakes In first
class condition.

rection as the fight raged for ten or
16 minutes. Striving to kaep the ship
on an even keel, the pilot was unable
to go Immediately to his helper's aid.
