Thursday, November 16, 1944 4 Vernonia Eagle At the Churches Two Important Events Deserve The Support of Everybody Beginning on the next two Mondays, November 20 and November 27, are two events which deserve the support of every individual because of the import ance arising therefrom. On November 20, next Monday, the Sixth War Loan drive begins here as it does all over the nation Everyone is familiar with the purpose of the drive, for information has been widely circulated regarding its importance and the benefits derived by subscrib ing heavily in war bonds at that time. On November 27, Nehalem Valley citizens along with other citizens in the county and nation will re ceive through the mail letters containing Christmas Seals. The importace of remitting to Mrs. Connie Anderson, local chairman, the cost of those seals can not be overemphasized. The money received by the Red Cross is divided so that 75 percent remains in the county to fight tuberculosis, 20 per cent goes to the state association and five per cent goes to the nation al association. The money from the seal sale is the only means of fighting this disease and during the years that funds have been available for the fight, tuberculosis has been reduced in prevalence so that it is no more man’s most dangerous disease. The ultimate aim of worker’s in the fight against TB is its eradication. A further step in that direction will be the mobile chest X-ray unit which will visit Colum bia county in the spring, offering free chest examin ations to everyone. The mass X-ray program and the stamping out of tuberculosis can only be made possible by your Christ mas Seal purchases. t Events in Oregon MALING CANNERY CLOSES NIGHTS HILLSBORO — Cannery of ficials this week ordered the B. E. Maling cannery to go on full day-time shift with no night work, due to absenteeism caused by cold and dampness at night. Turkeys have started coming in to be processed and millions of pounds of the birds for shipment to the armed forces will be pre pared. Mixed vegetables are still arriving at the cannery but are being taken care of. WAR CHEST GOES OVER TOP BY $1033 TILLAMOOK — The war chest drive in Tillamook has gone over the top with a quota of $14,600 over subscribed by $1033.72, the sum total amount ing to $15,633.72 Citizens have been most generous in their con tributions, feeling that the mon ey has been put to good use in all relief organizations and in soldier benefits. Aiding much in the last minute contributions were those made by the civilian personnel at the naval air sta tion. Lt. C. C. McGoon, who was in charge of that program, sent in a contribution of $250 collected and subscribed by that personnel. HALF OF WAR FUND QUOTA RAISED HERE SEASIDE — With less than half of the Seaside quota raised, the war fund drive was virtually completed this week. A total of $3687.15 had been turned in at the office of Gault Patton, city auditor. It is hardly likely that there is enough in the hands of solicitors to bring the total to $4000, which is just half of the quota of $8,000. Last year approximately $4,000 was raised in Seaside, with $1,226 collected in Gearhart and $711 in Cannon Beach. SALVAGE 447 TONS PAPER IN ONE YEAR FOREST GROVE — During the first year of paper salvage Washington county contributed 447 tons of paper to the Oregon paper drive, the state salvage coinmitte disclosed this week on the first anniversary of the in tensive campaign.

This was slightly below the state average of 27.8 pounds per capita. During October the county collected a total of 30 tons of paper, less than half the 75 tons collected during September. Washington Snapshots Large overseas shipments of farm machinery under lend- lease are making it necessary for American farmers to scram ble for equipment. Continued manpower problems, lack of suf ficient foundry and casting fa cilities, and continuation of war contracts are also reasons why output of machines remains be low demand. It now looks U3 though the president’s recent call for more farm machinery may be the forerunner of increased exports of foodstuffs to Europe. Reports that public members of the war labor board may ask additional powers are causing a lot of speculation in Washington. Since the present powers of the board have been Considered ade quate to establish reasonable sta bilization, it is believed that ex tension of those powers would be: 1. to allow wage adjustments not now permitted, or 2. to im pose wage standards for broad social purposes rather than to prevent inflation. Reports have ■been current that organized la bor has been assured of policies designed to maintain the high level of wartime weekly earnings after V-E day. Rival groups in Washington manifest considerable disagree ment about an ambitious postwar foreign trade policy said to in clude items totaling more than $100 billion, and expected to affect American manufacturers, both large and small as well as all other elements of the nation’s economy. Despite the intense se- recy shrouding the program, syme members of congress have learned enough details to cause dougts of its workability. Dead Man Inside You Yes—a dead man down inside you. Your throat is an open sepulchre and it sends up the smell of the dead. The Bib'e says so—Romans 3:13. Sin struck you dead. All have sinned and the wages of sin is death. On the one side is the vast number—the human race— the fallen sons of Adam—dead in trespasses and sins. Set op posite is the great host who have obeyed God, counted on Christ's blcod to wash out the stain of their sin and into whose heart God has breathed his own eter nal life. They shall never use the judement of the lost. But God paid high to possess them. He would not wink at their sins and receive them as they were. So he washed them clean in the blood of the Lamb. The blood of Jesus Christ—God’s Son cleanses all from sin. Now the miracle. Take forgiveness on the NEW RATION BOOK ISSUED CANADIANS ST. MARY’S CATHOLIC Rev. Anthony V. Gerace Rev. J. H.

To me “Capital” narrows down to the meaning of the fi nancial setup that pays me for my own particular job, so that I can buy groceries, pay the F. H. & A. for my house, get s'noose and bet on the horses. My paycheck comes from the lumber business; or, in a broad er way of putting it, from the forest products industry. Now, we all know about the U. S. census. We have to trust its figures on what is in this country from people to peanuts. The census sets the amount of “Capital Investment” in the for est products industry roughly at $10,000,000,000 (ten billion bucks), and the number of em ployees at approximately a mil lion. Just focus on that round fig ure of a million employees in American forest products Indus try woods and mills and on that ten billion dollars of Invested capital. What does it mean to you? To me it means that ten thousand dollars of somebody’s money is invested in my job— that every job in the nation-wide forest products industry repre sents a “Capital Investment” of about ten thousand dollars. This is so if the census is so. Capitalism Is Twins . . . Money capital is invested to earn more money—in dividend^ or other forms of profit. The money investment is made pro ductive by the work of human beings. So there is another kind of “capital investment” involved —the capital of intelligence, strength, energy, loyalty, skill, education, and all other qualities which serve to make up the val ue cf an individual on a specific job. That is, human capital. Every baby is a capital in vestment. It costs a pile of mon ey to bring a child into the world and to rear it to an age and condition for independent H.

He bore away our sins and in their place, we have a wedding garment. For now God’s righteousness is brought out and put- on all who trust in Jesus Christ as Saviour. Ro.3-21. But what for our hearts? How shall we come into eternal life? Here is the miracle. God acts when you embrace Jesus Christ as clearing you by his death for your sins. God inbreathes his life into your soul—his spirit touches your spirit with life eternal. This is the new birth. You are now born again and into the family of God. He is now your heaven ly Father. As the vine sets up life in the branch, so God sets up life in you. Abide in Him. From now on you are to abide in Christ. To abide in bringing every known sin into the light and make confession. It is to have nothing in life that we can not share with Him. And to take all our burdens to Christ and draw all our wisdom and strength from him. You are to go on in death Water Glasses.
