been found which will suit all classes
or conditions in the same manner.
1t is the consensus Of opinion, how
ever, among experienced workers in
church, Sunday schools and other de-
partments of religious education that
the nearest approach to any one
method by which to bind the young
people to the church and the Sunday
school Is proper instruction in Bible
knowledge.
First the blade, then the ear and
next the full corn in the ear-conver-
sion, induction into the church and a
proper conception of the will of God
concerning himself will do the Sunday
school scholar more good than all the
man invented methods possible.
The most effective agency for secur-
ing such results as above referred to of
which we know is found in the work
of the American Baptist Publication
society, conducted especially for our
people by the Rev. DR.. S. N. Vass. The
benefits derived from DR.. Vass' Bible
lectures have been felt for good in all
sections of the country by the church
es, Schools Young Mems Christian as
sociations and missionary organizations
to which he has lectured. DR.. Vass
recently delivered a series Of Bible lee
lures for the Young Mems Christian as
sociation in Kansas City, Mo. The re-
suits of the instruction given to the men
through the lecture system of Bible
study have been phenomenal Secre-
tary R. B. De Frantz is highly elated

of the men. 1t has meant more inter

PIONEER WOMAN
BURIED SUNDAY

Caroline Wilkins was born in Rams
bourg, Germany, July l6, 1852. She
was married 20 William Ehrck IN her
old home country in 1871. She came
with her husband to America in 1872,
locating in Chicago, H., where they
remained two years. then they went 20
Clinton, Iowa. where they remained
five years, coming to Oregon IN March,
1879.
Their first year in Oregon was spent
on the Chas Ehrck place and IN March,
1870. they moved into their log h0ui e
on the homestead. where they lived
until FIVE years ago this spring, when
they moved into the new house now
occupied by their son, w. c. Ehrck,
and his family. and their son, .. n.
EhTck. In July Of this same year.
1907, Mr.. and Mrs Ehrck took several
months for rest and pleasure visiting
relatives and friends at various points
in the United States and Europe, re-
turning IN January to their home.
Three years ago they went 10 Port
land where they made their home
from April to July, when they purch-
ased property in the city Of Hood
River, where they have been at home
ever since.
Mrs. Ehrck has been in poor health
for the past two years and all that
medical skill and loving care could do
for her has been done, but she grew
worse and two weeks ago last Friday
was brought to the home of her
daughter, Mrs. j. II. Eggert, where
she passed away at a. m, Saturday,
April l3, spending her last days on
thefsame farm, though in a different
house.
She is survived by her husband,
William Ehrck, her daughters, Mrs.
}. H. Eggert. Of Odell, Mrs. j. D.
Hendon and Mrs. McFarlane, of Port
land, and her sons. O. II. Ehrck and
w. G. Ehrck, and five grandsons and
one granddaughter as well as many
other relatives and many, many
friends. Her life was one Of thought
fulness for others and those who were
near and dear to her are heartbroken
at her going.
The funeral services were held Sun
day afternoon short prayer service
at the home of }. II. Egget, Nj. d.
Odell officiating, singing by Mr.. and
Mrs. Guy f. Smith and Mrs. Stanton
and Will Smith. A service at the
Union church, with Rev. Troy Shelley
and NJ d. Odell officiating, the singers
as before. lnterment was in Pine
Grove cemetery, where years ago Mrs.
Ehrck father and mother were laid
away, as was one daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Ehrck.
The esteem in which she was held
was shown by the very large number
of people from every walk of life,
who were in attendance at the funeral
service and the evidences of genuine
sorrow on every countenance. The
floral offerings were very beautiful.
One by one the pioneers are passing
and their pioneer friends and those
who are later friends, but who appre
ciate them and know something of
their struggles in carving out from
the forest this beautiful valley of
homes, grieve with their bereavad ones
and extend to them sincerest sym
pathy in their time of trial
