At the morning service Dr. Stoute
read Geu. 22:1-14, and took for his text
Hebrews 11:17. “By faith Abraham,
when he was tried offered up Issla and
he that had received the promise of­
fered up his only begotten sou.” Bro.
Stoute emphaslu-d the idea that Abra­
ham remembered God’« promise, that
his seed should populate the earth, and
that he had faith to do as God com­
manded, to lay bis only son on the
altar of Sacrifice, and that there would
be a way provided.
Th* chrt“tl®n Endeavor subject was
“Giving.” John Ilolingberg was the
leader.
Next Sunday at C. E. Mrs. Cordier,
the leader, will take for her subject,
'Zac-ous.” She asks that every one
read up on this man’s life and come
prepared to discuss his conversion, and
wlmt it meant to him and others. Bring
your Bibles.
At evening worship Bro. Stoute urged
the parents and especially the fathers
to think seriously on the up bringing
of tlieir children. He called our atten­
tion to the fact that the largest major­
ity of people in the churches today are
those taught from early childhood thé
teachings of the Bible.
Rev. Itankln, the cowboy ppreacher
from Montana, was unable to be with
us last Sunday evening owing to car

him in Hood River on July 4 remember
what a fine message he brought, and so
are anxious to hear him again.

“We are going to extend the use of
the Dewey-Decimal system in the 11-
brary this year,” said Miss Lucile
Ntephens, school librarian, '"which is
considered the ls-«t and most popular
system now in use. The Hood River
library is using it at present. Also we
are planning to build the library up
this year.”
This building has already- been start­
ed by an addition of 18 or so new
books. These books include histories
of Ohtna, of Asia and of America, texts
on government, political science and
chemistry; a book on “Health" and one
on the “Labor Problem in the United
States”; “The Holy Bible, a New
Translation” by James Moffat, “Con­
temporary Verse”, “History of Art”
and the "Story of the Alphabet.” Also
two new Funk A Wagnails dictionaries.
Miss Stephens works in the library
seventh and eighth periods. During the
rent of the day, student librarians will
be in charge when the library is ready
to open.
Shortly before school opened, the
books were transferred from the old
building. Miss Stephens now has them
arranged properly on the shelve«.
A hundred or more Itooks never have
been catalogued. These Mtns Stephens
will make ready for use Itefore the li­
brary will be opened for use- by the*
students.

The little office was crowded with
im|Mtient agents, each one of which
bore a frown and a pout and took great
care to step on as many feet as pos­
sible. Behind the closed door upon
which all eyes were involuntarily fo­
cused a low mumble came forth at in­
tervals when the din in the outer office
subsided. Occasionally the door opened
and a tired looking person would come
out. The crowd noticed carefully that
the victim either looked relieved or
sadder than he was before entering.
Some got frightened and deimrted be­
fore they saw the man behind the door.
Others lingered on. When that door
opened there was a grand rush and
one, doubtlessly the stronger., gained
admittance. So, the day went on. At
last there were uo others. The office
girl sighed as she closed the outer door
liebind the last. Hhe heard the fumbling
of the inner office door and prepared
herself for a tired, WBrn out. snappy,
grouchy boas. Hhe heard a sigh and
looked up. The man was smiling. “Well,
that’s over,” he said in a Jolly voice.
It was our principal. Even after the
rush of studenta getting schedules re-
arranged and changed, Mr. Knight re­
tains the same patient, cheerful dis­
position.
