Greene of Eugene on a very pleasant trip yesterday. The group drove to Union Creek where they prepared luncheon and then went on to Crater Lake and Dia mond Lake. This was Mrs. Green's first trip to the lakes in a number of years and she was greatly Im pressed with the scenic beauties of the country. And she still pursues the villain THAT slicker, Osgood Mc Throckmorton, once stood as the symbol of stick-to-it-ive-ness. Nothing thwarted his de termination to possess the vir tuous heroine. The situation never varied. Always the villain still pursued her over the damp grass she fled regardless of consequences. Today the situation Is re versed as the idea of Safety re lentlessly pursues the villain, Danger. This Company, for in stance, has IS safety engineers forever devising means to re duce hazards. As one result, Hard Hat Harry, another char acter, has become a common place. Men in the oil fields are now protected at both ends by "iron" clothes. Hats devised to withstand heavy blows guard the heads of derrick workers and steel-capped shoes save many t foot when something falls or a stand of casing slips. In refineries such remote con tingencies as asphyxiation and explosion have been made as near as possible to impossible. Life at sea never a sissy busi ness has been rendered far less hazardous aboard our tankers. These are only samples. Each year our safety record has im proved. Last year's was the best ever. Yet this has only inspired our safety experts to new am bitions. Every day, every hour, safety-planning pursues iu par ticular villain-regardful, air, of firry consequence.

"Does he want war or peace?" "The Sudeten Germans will now take the liberty denied them twenty years. Germans Different Vow "Germans are a different people from what they were In 1918. "We are cured of the democracy of those days. "In this hour, the whole German people will unite behind me.

Bewes agree: yes, these regions must be ceded. "But what did he do? He did not cede the region but drove the Ger mans out." After citing the dally Increase of refugees which, he said, today had reached the figure of 314,000, Hitler continue: "Whole stretches of land are being depopulated, yet Benes Is sitting in Prague end thinks nothing can hap pen to him, for behind him stand England and France. Time Has Come 'I ' believe the moment has now come for talking business." That was the high point thus far for Hitler's speech. It came at 9:14 p. m. (13:14 p. m PST).

"And force produces no solution for the future good of humanity." Officials hoped the telegram would reach Hitler while the draft of his speech, to be delivered tonight, was at 111 fluid and would have a definite effect on what he would say. The telegram was Interpreted as both, an appeal and a warning. When the President said the fabric of peace In Europe, if not throughout the world, Is In Immediate danger, he meant, Informed officials said, the European leaders might find nations outside Europe drawn in against one aide or the other.

Fred M. .Weatherford, evange listic speaker, stated he would de liver a sermon which he Judged to be the key note for the revival series. Last night the evangelist spoke from the topic, '"The Scarecrow In the Church," In part, he said: "The fact that the great s'tvam of humanity la outside the church today raises the stimulating inquiry as to who and where the odious spectre la that keeps folks out. "I think the first cause for losses in the church Is due to the scare crow in the church. In a broad sense, It has been man-centered In stead of God-centered. There has been too much substitution of con firmation for transformation and re formation without regeneration', and decision days without salvation days. All of this means profession with out salvation and the building of a church upon this foundation la too sandy to sustain Itself. "It has presented no God-borne message given from Hps cold by the Infinite, no vision to kindle faith in a sin-torn soul: no cross that speaks forgiveness to the broken hearted. The church, to be attrac tive, must bear a free and Joyful testimony of the glorious Redeemer's saving grace.
