Dost think God does not care?
Go to the crater-huge and grim,
Desolate beyond compare
And hear the iiwis singing there
At the brink of the crater's rim,
Caroling forth their joyous songs,
Exquisite beyond compare
Into the murky, steaming air;
Singing to God who placed them there
Songs so happy-so free from care
At the terrible crater's rim
So dark-so grim
Singing to Him!

The persistence OF an old man, seconded oy
that Of a younger man, IN obtaining from ihe
Rev Dr. /. w. Batten. at the mems meeting
OF the West Side Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation Yesterday his views on the use or To-
bacco brought forth the reply from DR.. Batten
that he was not opposed 20 tobacco. that ne was
q smoker and did not condemn drinking per Sc
although he was opposed 10 drunkenness.
The interrogators were among those listening
IN q discourse By DR.. Batten on the Emanuel
movement as put into actual practice in ST.
Marks Church. Or. Batten is one Of those who
is applvine the Emanuel doctrine TO mental and
physical Ills He told Of the duty Of the Church
IN the physical training OF man, and attributed
the criticisms Of the medical profession and the
clergy Of the Emanuel movement to their ig-
norance Of its workings. He had not read one
intelligent newspaper story on the subject, he
said After explaining Just what the method
was and telling of some remarkable cures. in
Guiding cases Of drunkenness that II had ef-
fected DR.. Batten announced that he was pre-
pared TO answer questions
The persistent old man was one OF the first
20 rise.
You have spoken" he said, "of the tobacco
habit. Do the children OF a man addicted
show traces of it?''
Il have said nothing about smoking, because
I smoke myself answered Or. Batten.
ing one as TO the difference between the Emman-
uel movement and Christian Science, the young
seeker after tobacco knowledge suggested that
the question regarding tobacco was important
as those concerning drink and that DR.. Batten
ought TO answer it. A few persons in the audi
ence applauded. DR.. Batten replied:
II do not consider smoking an immoral habit.
nor do I condemn drinking per II the use
of tobacco was immoral I would not use IT"
There was applause at this. However II you
want 10 stop smoking and have any trouble in
doing it come to me and III help you." continued
DR.. Batten.
The persistent old man here put a hypotheti-
cal question that brought forth some shouts Of
"Sit down. He quoted literally from Scripture
on remarkable cures, and had something to say
about false prophets
DR.. Batten in reply said that Dr. Worcester
was not false prophet and that neither he nor
any other disciple of the Emmanuel movement
pretended TO work miracles.

ROCKEFELLER BACK TO BIBLE CLASS
Urges Young Men to Join the Church as
Refuge from Danger

John n. Rockefeller Jr. yesterday told his Bible
class at the Fifth Avenue Baptist Church that
young men should refrain from joining churches
Just because some men connected with churches
were not men Of spotless regulations. His subject
was Shall Man Join Church,
You may say that by joining a church YOU will
come in contact with men whose lives you do not
approve Of" he said. In my opinion that is not
a sound argument. You might s well say that be-
cause there are men in this world whose lives you
so not approve Of you had better get off the earth
The proper course to pursue is to Join the church
and try 10 reform these men and help them TO see
the error of their ways" Continuing he said:
Il do not ray that II is necessary 10 to church
in order 10 secure salvation. You Christian men
outside Of the church may be able steer clear Of
the rocks, but ii is much better Join the church
because ii is Joining the great army OF struggling
sinners. The man who tests his strength by WALK
ing in dangerous places is running terrible risk.
You men from out OF town. don't YOU need every
good influence keep you in the right path? If
you don't, do BY Joining the church you are not
only doing good for yourself: you doing good
for others. should Join the church for the
same reason that he joins the army in time OF
war"
Yesterday was the first time in several weeks that
young Mr.. Rockefeller had addressed the class.
Announcement that he was 10 do so caused 4 large
increase in yesterdays attendance. The class
room was unable TO accommodate all who came.
It was announced yesterday that the annual cleo
ton OF officers OF the class will take place next
month. John D. Rockefeller, jr.. is candidate for
reelection TO the Office Of vice-president Con-
siderable surprise caused yesterday by the an

nations be made looking rather to
to the control Of stock grazing areas.
We believe the act of congress Gre
ating the forest service contemplated
the preservation of the forests for fu-
ture generations rather than the con-
troll of the public land for grazing
purposes.
Whereas, the interests of the wool
grower and the symetrical develop
ment of the vast unsettled west are
at stake and are entitled to the at
| tention of he administration Of the
national forests by the general gov
ernment; the problems presented for
solution touch indirectly every other
industry of the states wherein the
forest areas have been set apart; we
believe that the existing situation re-
quires considerate attention by all
thinking men who are interested in
added wealth, Increased population
and general prosperity, who look into
the ultimate future and not alone at
the present; just criticism exists of
the present methods of administer
ing the forest reserves;
We endorse the policy of the gov
ernment in protecting the forests Of
the United States for future genera
tions! and we feel that for the bene-
fit of our prosperity we have as deep
an interest in this question as any
other citizen; and as far as the for
estry policy goes toward the preser-
vation of our forests we are in hearty
accord. We believe that certain evils
exist in the administration Of the for
est reserves relative to the grazing
of livestock thereon which should be
corrected.
But there is an honest difference
of opinion among sheepmen and the
forestry officials as to the number
grazed on the several forest reserves,
and in the method and manner in
handling the flocks thereon. We
therefore, protest against the contin-
ual reduction Of flocks allowed with
in reserves untila full hearing be-
fore some competent tribunal can be
had, and in this connection we pro-
test that by the methods now pur-
sued investments are being leopard
ized and flockmasters in many in
stances are being gradually driven out
of business, thus producing a con-
dition which BODIES i'll not only to the
future of the wool growing industry.
but to the prosperity of the west
where yet many decades must elapse
before the livestock status of the old
world and eastern states can obtain.
We believe that advisory boards
are of some assistance in the admin
istration of reserves, yet in certain
instances their recommendations and
reports have been totally dlsregarded,
owing to the fact thatadvisory
boards are not clothed with suffi-
cient power.
We recommend that instead of
these advisory boards congress be
urged to pass a law providing for the
creation of a court in each state
where the national forests are stu
ated with power to hear and settle
the many questions which arise be-

SHEEPMEN ENJOYED
CLOSING BANQUET
GOOD CHEER AND WIT
DEALT OUT IN BUNCIIES
Elaborate Spread Served in Eagles
Woodmen Dining Hall Brought the
Session TO Pleasant Close-Dan p.
Smythe, Toastmaster - Remlnis-
cenccs and Jokes Warmed the
Hearts of the Guests.

As a proper finale to the entertain
ment features of the state woolgrow-
ers' convention came the banquet
given last evening to the visitors by
the Commercial association. 1t was
held in the big banquet room Of the
Eagles -Woodmen building and was
served at the close of the final ses-
sion at 10 o'clock.
The banquet was served under the
direction Of p. o. Elliot and that gen.
tlemans reputation as a caterer was
enhanced by the spread. for il was
satisfactory in every detail. Music
during the evening was served BY
Johnson's orchestra.
After the clans and other edibles
had been given proper consideration
and the cigars had been lighted, the
toast program was taken up with
Dan p. Smythe as toastmaster and
two hours of wit and merriment fol-
lowed.
At the outset of the speaking the
toastmaster called the retiring pres
ident, ]. N. Burgess. to his side. and
In a fitting manner presented him
with beautiful gold watch, the gift
OF the members of the association
and intended to show the apprecia-
ton felt by the woolgrowers for the
earnest Work done by Mr. Burgess
during his term in office and also
the personal esteem in which he is
held by his fellow growers. Mr.. Bur-
CESS declared he could not find words
to properly thank the members for
the kindness shown him.
Col. ]. II. Raley was the first to
responded to the call of the toastmaster
and he gave highly interesting talk
upon the sheepmen and the sheep
business of the past and present. He
paid a glowing tribute to the pioneer
sheepmen of this section and told in
teresting anecdotes of the early lives
of many of those present.
George Mcknight of Vale, and the
popular new president of the asso-
citation, was the next speaker and
proved himself a man of wit and rug
ged eloquence. He told of his early
experiences in eastern oregon when
he devoted much time to playing the
violin at dances and to horse racing
He is now emulating the wise men
of Bethlehem and thinks he "sees a
star"
r. F. Hynd, Of Heppner, in the
course of an interesting talk, made
the announcement that the toast
master Dan P. Smythe, had become
a republican, or at least near" re-
publican,
Others to respond were ]. R. Ra-
ley, Will Moore, Stephen A. Lowell,
who spoke with his usual eloquence,
