GOD IN CREATION.

There lives and works
\ soul in all things, and that soul is
God.
The beauties of the wilderness are
His.
That make so gay the solitary place,
Where no eye sees them; and the
fairer forms,
That cultivate glories in are His.
He sets the bright procession on its
way
And marshals all the order of the
year;
He marks the bounds that Winter
may not pass
And blunts his pointed fury; in its
case
Russet and rude. folds up their tend
er germ,
Uniniured with inimitable art;
And ere one flowery season fades and
dies,
Designs the blooming wonders of the
next.
The Lord of all. Himself through all
diffused,
Sustains and is the life of all that
lives.
Nature is but a name for an effect,
Whose cause is God one
Spirit-His
Who wore the plated thorns Win
bleeding brows-
Rules universal nature. Not a flower
But shows some touch, in freckle
streak or strain,
OF His unrivaled pencil. He inspires
Their balmy odors, and imparts then
hues,
And battles their eyes with nectar
and includes.
In grains as countless as the seaside
/ sands,
The forms with which He sprinkle
all the earth.
! Happy who walks with Him. Nhon
what he finds
OF flavor or of scent in fruit or flow
er,
or what he views of beautiful o
grand
In nature, from the broad majestl
oak
To the green blade that twinkles
the sun,
Prompts with remembrance Of pres
ent God =.

MAKE THAT DREAM TRUE.

Al the mouth Of Butter creek there
is a farmer who will cut $4,000 worth
of alfalfa this year from only $50
acres of land. The land is flood ir-
rigated" land and was watered but
once this year. Pete Sheridan is max
ing big money with a small acreage.
What is being done at the mouth
of Butter creek might be accomplish
ed with more or less success on 10O,-
600 acres of wheat land in this vi
cinity. In the Umatilla river there is
plenty of water for flood or winter
irrigation According to the report
of the state engineer the annual dis
charge of. the Umatilla river at Una
tilla is 5O5,O0O acre feet. or enough
t. cover 5O5.OOO acres Of land to a
depth Of one foot.

I'll, Of this water is being used. Less
than $4,000 acres of land come under
the combined projects of the west
end. So most Of the water is allowed
to 90 unused to the sea. True the
United States government has a
blanket filing on the flood waters
But the government cannot hold that
right unless it makes use Of the wa
ter. Then even if the government
carries out the extension Of the Una
tilla project it cannot use all the flood
waters Of the Umatilla.

THE POWER OF FEAR.

Authentic instances Of the hair
turning white in few hours or a
night through fear or sudden shock
could be multiplied indefinitely, says
Orison SWEET Marden in Success Mag
azine. It is well known that when
Ludwig Of Bavaria learned Of the in
nocence Of his wife whom he had
caused to be put to death on suspicion
of her unfaithfulness. his hair became
as white ais snow within a couple Of
days.
When Charles the First attempted
TO escape from Carisbrooke Castle his
hair turned white in a single night.
The hair Of Maria Antoinette was
suddenly changed by her great dis
tresses. On a portrait of herself
which she gave TO a friend, she wrote,
''Whitened by afflction.'
This power of fear to modify the
currents Of the blood and all the Sc
cretions, to whiten the hair, to paral-
we the nervous system and even to
produce death is well known. What
ever makes us happy, whatever ex-
cites enjoyable emotions, relaxes the
capillaries and gives freedom to the
circulation: whatever depresses and
distresses us disturbs US, worries US;
I in fact, all phases Of fear ccntrac'
/ these blood vessels and impede the
/ free circulation of the blood. We see
| this illustrated in the pale face caused
/ by fear or terror.

COVERING THE FIGHT.

The East Oregonian is not an advo-
cate of prize fighting. on the con-
trary it regrets ring contests as some
thing the world can we'll do without
and predicts that pugilism has seen
its best days. Nevertheless this pa
per will cover the Jeffries-Johnson
fight and do so in metropolitan style.
\ report of the fight by rounds will be
received from the United Press and
East Oregonian bulletins will be post
eG in various places within the city
during the progress of the fight. The
detailed story of the fight will be pub
lished in Monday evenings issue. This
issue will go by motor car and even

WAYSIDE WISDOM.

The man who says nothing isn't al
ways saving wood.
Many a man starts out circuit ana
winds up a side show.
You can usually tell an aristocrat
by his plebian tastes.
The best way TO retain favor
is to do somebody else one.
It is possible for man to have toe
many friends and not enough enemies
Perhaps you wouldn't think so haro
of your wife's relatives If you knew
what she thinks of yours.
Several marriages take place be-
cause neither party can think up o
good excuse for breaking the engage
ment.
Some peoples idea Of success is tc
put two and two together in such
way as to make other people think the
total five.

"HOMING" PIGEONS.

F,xperiments have recently peeh
made 70 determine the length of time
through which a carrier pigeon Will
preserve the "homing" instnct-that
is to saw. how long a bird must be
kept away from its original nome lolt
before il will lose the instinct to re-
turn. Seventy-two pigeons IN the
German military service were taken
from Mayence to Brunswick, a dist
ance of 10 miles, and kept in cap
tivitv a month. Then they were lper-
ated They started instantly in the
direction of Mayence and arrived there
in four and one-half hours.
1t seems really impossible to eXtin-
guish the homing instinct in a good
pigeon. A story is told in this con-
nection of a French carrier pigeon
Icaptured by the German soldiers dur
! irg the siege of Paris in 1870.
The bird was being carried in a bal
loon from Paris to some point in the
country. whence it was expected tc
return to Paris with message. II
was taken to the German headquar'
ters and presented to the Commander
Prince Frederick Charles, who sent i
to his mother in Germany.
Here it was placed in splendid ant
troomv aviary, and carefully fed anC
nourished. But although it was KEEP
there. living in the lap Of royal lux
ury. for four years, the French plgeoi
did not forget its fatherland.

"summer-fallowing" and local people
will be free to go where they please
Monday. From indications many will
attend the celebrations at Stanfield
and at Pilot Rock. There will be big
doings at both places. Still others
will hunt the cool shades and the
pool at Wenaha springs. Those who
cannot get so far away from home
may take in the Indian celebration at
