UPi Friends hooted 35 years sgo, but the idea of Wilson R. Wlnans. pioneer rancher, for conserving Irrigation water by forming artificial glaciers may yet prove a solution. A practical application of Wlnans' theory Is being experimented with south of Dufur, where pipelines have been built to divert water, under pressure, from some streams of the Mt.

Weatherford, pastor -evangel 1st, uaed as his topic, "More than Gold, Better than Diamonds." He drew hla text from Acta 3:6. "Silver and gold have I none; but such aa I have give I the . . . An excerpt of his measage follows: "We are living In an age of Indif ference. An age so engrossed In ma terial things that the vole of Jesus is but dimly heard. To many the voice of the Galilean sounds luce the musle of a dream, enchanting and Arresting perhaps, but actually un real and unchallenglng, In this day of materialism. To them His very words are covered with the moss of a forgotten age. "The man about whom our measage centers waa lame from birth he never had walked. Ha waa brought to the outer door of the church and left there to receive material, not spiritual gain. The thought of this age la so moulded In the terms of the dollar sign that It Is difficult to convince It that anything has greater value. The man of the text waa one of a considerable number of Indigent and needy people, attired doubtless In the scant tatters of the beggar. "The Christian attitude toward this unfortunate soul arrests our at tention. Peter and John saw the possibility of goodness In the poor man. They drew him up to the source of goodness. When they had not money to meet hla request he could have critically turned from them and feated their high purpose In bis Interest. A critical spirit la poison to every worthy Impulse. Un like the critic Iter, the beggar took what his God-sent messengers had to offer. He ventured on the faith of the prophets. It requires the spirit of venture to aohleve In any given cause. "The lame man saw In a flash what It waa all about, and determined to take by faith what God's servants commanded of his. Peter and John had no silver or gold, but they had what the poor man needed. It waa more than gold and better than dia monds. It waa heaven born. What we need most today la that life which Is heaven born. Eternal. God now la ready to Impart life as then. "To the man Peter said, with the sparkle of Heaven's blessing In hla face, 'Silver and gold have I none; but auch as I have give I Lhce; In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk' He took the man by the hand and lifted him to Infi nite power, and he walked, and leaped, and praised God, aa he went Into the temple rejoicing that he had been made whole, spiritually and physically.
