just returned from a vacation

California. This trip took

At Oakland the Rev. Worrall
was acting rector for two weeks
at St. James’ the Apostle Epis

its origin back to 1858 and is
one of the oldest churches in the
area. Constructed of redwood

of different per

F.L. Lattimore, have made this
congregation a live growing

mutual outlook of all peoples
for the Word and Spirit of Je

The Rev. Worrall served St.
James asa seminarian, and then
as an or<tiined minister for a
brief period before coming to
Eastern Oregon.
Though embodying a great
love for the people of the con
gregation of this mid-California
church, the Rev. Worrall is,
nevertheless, most happy to be
back in this area of Eastern
Oregon, which he now considers
his true home, to work for the
spread of the Kingdom of God
amongst us.

If you want quality heat you must first get quality
fuel. The only answer is natural gas. Other forms
of energy may have their points, but only one—nat
ural gas—has the most points in your favor. There
is no cleaner energy. We call our product the civil
ized fuel. It is a non-pollutant, both in your home
and the great outdoors. No form of energy responds
as quickly—either up or down—to your touch of the
thermostat. Economy? For healthful, fully fresh
air-circulated warmth delivered—and comfort pro
duced—no other fuel approaches the performance
of natural gas, dollar for dollar. Perhaps a combina
tion cooling-heating plant (one compact unit) is
best for you. It’s worth investigating. Remember,
also, gas excels in many other uses—water heating,
cooking, clothes drying, grilling, swimming pool
heating, incinerating ... to name a few. And mul
tiple uses of America’s favorite fuel will earn a low
er rate. Estimates? Gladly. No obligation.
