Many young people are hell bounn
through seeking and desiring the
companionship of evil persons.
Damns The Soul.
The man or woman who plays fast
ara loose with sacred obligations. like
Sampson, damns his or her own soul
The biggest stumbling block in the
Christian world today is the back
slider. Sampson was man whom
God ordained to do certain work
and gave him power from on High
to use which Sampson deliberately
turned to different purposes than
that which the Father intended. His
punishment was an inglorious death
and the Simpsons oT power, wealth,
position and education of today are
just as surely on the same road.
Conscience Given Man.
God created man with the power
to he conscious of Christ and His
plan. When Jesus is refused. his
teachings ignored. his commandments
set aside. man then loses his grip on
God and every day makes 1t harder
to come back. Sampson was careless
cf the free gifts OF God and how
much more so are we. There are
hundreds of Intelligent men and wo-
men in this vicinity of Pendleton who
say. "I have no use for God. l have
a home, friends. money, position,
why should l worry about Christ.
don't owe Him anything.
RetributiOn Il Sure.
The time will come. II not on this
earth, then in the next. when these
same people living today will come
crawling on their hands and knees
begging for "A look from the Master
and it will be too late.
In the days of thy youth. of thy
strength and power. of thy position
and wealth. remember thy Creator.
Sampson forgot God and he could
not come back, and no one in Pen
dleton can do that which Sampson
tried to do and couldn't, If he waits
too long, for with God the accepted
time is now.

HtOLD.AIR SUPPLY-In a house heateu
Oby a furnace the temperature OF the
rooms is maintained by constant incom-
ing current of hot air. and It is absolutely
necessary for satisfactory heating that
proper provision be made for supplying this
air to the furnace. on no account should a
hot-ar furnace be used without being pro-
vided with a. direct supply OF air from out
side the building.
In dwellings this may be best accom-
plished by putting an opening in the eX-
ternal wall just beneath the hrst floor joist
and as far above the ground as the eleva-
tion of the building wi permit. From this
opening, which should be covered with gal
vanized wire netting of about q Inch mesh,
duct or hue should be carried to the air
pit under the furnace, The duct may be
either carried horizontally under the base
ment ceiling until near the furnace and then
dropped to the air pit or il may be carried
down against the cellar wall and thence
under the floor to the furnace The portion
of the duct above the floor shou be built
Of well-seasoned matched boards or Of gal
vanized iron, The portion below the floor
should be constructed either Of stone, brick
or glazed tile. and should be tightly ce-
mented. If of brick or stone. the duct
should be covered with stone slabs, with the
edges roughly dressed and the joints
cemented. The air ducts should not be car.
red under the floor II the soil Ia at all
damp or near any drain.
Besides the external air supply, II is also
a good idea to have a smaller air duct lead
Ing from the register In the front hall to the
base of the furnace This duct may be OF
wood, tin or galvanized iron. and may be
connected either with the base of the fur
mace above the floor or feed into the out
side duct, but care should be taken to pre-
vent the air from blowing from the outside
duct up through the inside one. An inside
duct will produce a better circulation of
air through the house. and on very cold
nights the outside duct may be shut off and
the air taken entirely from the front hall
as the air from this source, having nothing
to contamlnate It, will be reasonably pure

cold-air supply is used, 1T should be taken
