HELP IRRIGATION
HOOD RIVER. Dee. 1. 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. Hood national forest.
The project calls for lnstslltng
sprayers In a basin area, where water
would freeze during a season of low
temperatures, the frozen spray slow
ly building a mass of ice.
District forest rangers are assist
ing In the experiment.

and other oil seeda as a new crop for
Oregon received the attention of the
board of control today when George

itably In Malheur county, north

Schocnfeld of the State college and

CHRYSLER TOPS 'EM ALL.
Speaking in the Church of the
Nasarene Sunday night, Fred M.
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.
