Wonder, Ore., Aug. 1, 1930.
Pardon my digression. It isn’t
my intention to appropriate space
in your valuable paper to preach a
sermon. Yet I am sure that many
of its readers will be interested in
a few incidental remarks upon
prevalent opinions. One says: I
don’t think it is necessary to un-
derstand the Bible in order to be
saved." My reply was: “Our hope
of salvation is founded upon the
Archings of God’s inspired book.
erein we read that the way is so
plain that the wayfaring man, the
a simpleton, need not err therein.
It tells us what to do and what not
to do. It is not for us to use our
own preconceived ideas or notions
in the matter. For conscience isn’t
an innate principle as many sup-
pose, but it is a creature of edu-
cation.
Another says: “We may have a
difference of opinion as to where
the reward may be given—some
say this earth, purified and made
perfect in every way by having all
curse and evils removed; others
that it is some location “beyond the
bounds of Time and Space.” I do
not know where that would be.
Jesus told his disciples: “I go
to prepare a place for you,” and
“Whither I go ye cannot come
now.”
But he assures them that he will
come again and that they shall
meet him in the air.

with all his strength.
“Ah, then you mean you’re a

A Love That Never
Died
By JAMES CRAWFORD
C O-GET-HIM CAMERON.
u That was what they called
him, the silent, strapping Scotsman,
who had been sent so many times
into far places after fugitives from
Justice. It had come to be a habit,
whenever news came to headquar-
ters of some escaping miscreant,
tor the chief to send for Hugh and
say tersely, "Go get him, Cam-
eron !"′ And invariably Cameron
went and got.
Little was known of his life be-
fore he had joined up with the
Northwest Mounted some four
years ago. Rumor had It that, back
in Winnipeg, he had had an unfor-
tunate love affair.
At the time of the sensational
bank robbery in Winnipeg, then,
Hugh Cameron was a weather-
hardened, clear-eyed man with no
apparent Interest in life beyond
his duty.
He had already heard the main
facts of the case before tie was
summoned by the chief—how the
teller had been killed by a fellow
clerk, aided by a confederate who
was said to have been a woman,
and how the murderer had got
away with a large sum of money.
"An ugly customer,” warned the
chief. "He seems to have struck
north and there is a chance the
woman may be with him, although
I doubt that. But he ought not to
be difficult to find by so clever a
man as yourself.”
I Three months later, Cameron was
still searching. There had been
clews, yes, but clews which ulti
mutely led him nowhere, until at
length he fell in with a band of
roving Blackfeet.
"Yes,” they told him. "Man and
squaw living in trapper’s cabin. At
big bend in Heron river."
So Cameron, restocked with some
1 of their dried fish, once again head-
ed north. Two days later be
reached the Heron river and made '
camp a mile or two below the bend.
1 Then he calmly waited for dark-
| ness.
When at last he set out for the
| cabin, he was pleased to discover a
I trail sufficiently worn to indicate
recent use. Stealthily, with his au-
tomatic ready for instant service,
he crept along, reached the small,
weather-stained dwelling, flung
open the door, then stepped back
violently, his brain in terrible con-
fusion at sight of the slender fig-
ure which had sprung up at his
ent rance.
"You—Janet?" he gasped.
Her face, drained of all color,
quivered, but before she could an-
swer there came a delirious mur-
mur from the bunk and at once,

“But—and that means so much—
but,” continued Porky Pig, “there is

the rest of you.”

Porky Pig, treating Pinky's speech

Re-Apportionment
In the re-apportionment of Tex-
as congressional districts, follow-
ing announcement of the 1930 pop-
ulation, two of the three new con-
gressmen to which Texas is entit-
led probably will come from West
Texas, Judge Blanton said today.
If the legislature does not re-dis-
trict the state prior to the next pri-
mary, Texas will have three con-
gressmen at large; but the proba-
bilities are redistricting will be out
of the way before that time.
The 16th, 17th and 18th districts
arc not only the largest territorial-
ly in the state, but they have shown
the greatest population increase
and Judge Blanton feels certain the
110 counties in the districts will
be regrouped to provide two ad-
ditional congressmen.

ers 19 counties and had a 1920 pop-
iation of 314,314. The 16th dis-
