Golden Text. Come unto me all ye
| that labor and are heavy laden and
will give you rest Matt. 1928.
| Verses 20, 21.-Have all sinners the
| power to repent? Why or why not?
What reason can you give for OF
against the view, that sinner will i'm
mediately repent, on the presentation
of the gospel unless he resists his
good impulses?
Why did not Chorazin and Bethsaida
repent under the preaching Of Jesus
when it was backed up with such
mighty works?
What is the woe which Jesus pro
nounces upon the unrepentant?
Do sinners now, or will they in the
| future, suffer any punishment other
| than the natural results of sin In them
selves?
Verse 22.-Will there be degrees in
the punishment of the lost, and if So
by what method do you suppose it will
be guaged?
How AND BY WHAT METHOD
ARE THE JUST REWARDED IN
THIS LIFE, AND WILL THE SAME
METHOD, PROBABLY, BE OPERA,
TIVE IN THE FUTURE LIFE? (This
question must be answered in writing
.by members of the club.)
How far will the lowest man in
heaven be from the highest man in
! hell? "@S
Verses %, 24.-If Sodom would have
repented under the influences which
Capernaum rejected, does that, or not,
imply that it is simply a matter of the
strength Of the influence whether a
sinner repents or not?
If sinner rejects under one intlu-
ence and repents under stronger one,

Lowland Grain Frozen.

Salem--"It is difficult to estimate
the damage the average weather has
done, as it has varied in severity in
different localities" said A. c. Arm
strong, county fruit inspector of Mar
ion county, in speaking of the effect
of unusual winter.
"Upland grain has been protected
by snow to some extent, while lowland
grain, has been frozen out, so that in
some instances, would say, less than
one-third of q crop remains. How
ever, it will be found upon investiga-
tion, I think, that the farmers this
year planted less fall grain than they
ordinarily would, because Of persist
ency of early rains last fall.
"a large proportion OK potatoes not
yet dug have suffered, / am told, but
other crops aside from potatoes and
grain have not suffered greatly. Colo
winter will be good for fruit trees
It will keep them back, giving then
longer rest, making them harder, be
sides decreasing liability of late frosti
doing damage. Cold weather will also
lend flavor to next winters apples"

the religious revivals and reforms Of
the last century and a half. A hum

On Sunday he was preaching to his
congregation. and had Just reached
the second head Of his discourse, when
the church door was cautiously opened
and a head appeared followed by q
beckoning finger. The parson either
did not see, or he would not heed the
intruder, who then gave loud cough.
The preacher stopped In his preach

excitedly asked: what is It, John r.

Fruit in Good Shane.

Eugene-While the recent continued
cold weather has injured the grain
crop of Lane county to some extent,
all fruit is in good shape and it is ex-
pected that the usual crop will be gath.
cred, according to the predictions Of S.
]. Holt, manager Of the Eugene Fruit
Growers association and County
Fruit Inspector j. Beebe. They think
the trees did not suffer from the cold
at all. The extent of the damage tc
the grain cannot be ascertained, but
Is not as great as first thought. Fol.
lowing each hard freeze there came Q
good rain which packed down the
ground that had been raised by the
freeze and uprooting the grain. Some
say there will not be more than hall
crop of fall-sown wheat, while others
aver that no damage at all was done
No reports on the condition Of hops are
at hand, but II is generally thought
that very little, II any, damage hai
been done by the freezing weather.
