All churches are particularly inter-
ested in the missionary societies, both
in home and foreign work, and even if
their church is closed they still carry
on that work. In the federated church
they could contribute to their own
denominational missionary society in
proportion to their membership in the
federation, or any plan approved by
the organization.
1t will be very hard for some to give
up some Of the things they have been
reared in and adjust themselves to
Others and the only way is for all to be
tolerant and consderate of each others
views. And as to church ordinances,
we must allow and respect each others
conscience.
Then there are those who may miss
the form of service; so in that we
must give and take a little. But we
surely can all unite on faith in Christ
who made the atonement for all, and
that we are travelling toward eternity
with hope within us that we will all
reach our heavenly home. 1t will be a
great sacrifice for all to give up their
lIitiN iuhdl NildlNl iiO htuDl All LlIt
more if they have had hard struggle
to maintain it.
BY combining we could save on
finances and have better music, better
speakers, and the church could be Of
more use in the community.
We are all working for a common
cause, that is the spreading of the
gospel and the uplifting of humanity
with the hope of eternal life.
We as church members must enter this
with the idea in our minds that we
will let the majority rule and abide by
that decision and not be looking for
otfense. If things sometimes don
quite met with our approval, at least
we can try not to make an unjust crit
icism, but rather hunt for the good in
i it. 1t could be controlled by com
mittee from each church represented,
and at all business meetings let it be
4 known that the clerk notify all mem.
bers of that meeting and then for all
/ to attend.
/ Let US not forget that our boys
/ fought for a common cause and we
i backed them as one person. NoW.let
us come together in the spirit Of unity
/ in the cause of Christ.

trouble was brought about by not ask
ing all concerned to send their COM
mittee. A great move was blocked
and they have not been able to get
them together since
This is a great move in Hood River
and if care and thought are used in
laying firm and just foundation |
feel that great good may come out of
it, but if on the other hand it is
bungled it will be delayed possibly for
years.
The difference between federated
church and union church is that in a
federated church person is taken in
as denomlnational member and SO
stays. For instance, if "a person joins
as a Congregationalist he is still con-
sidered such, and if he wishes at any
time to be transferred it will be as a
Congregationalist, and so on with
members Of other churches. With a
union church they all go in as one, as |
understand it,

BLUE JEANS" THRILL
IN NEW FILM PLAY
Trusty Sawmill Quite the Real
Thing in Movie Melo-
drama
BY the PhOtOplay Editor

The thrilling sawmill scene in Blue
Jeans" which has been piciurzed by
Metro with Viola Dana as the star, was
considered such an innovation on the
night of its stage premiere on October
G. 1890, at the old Fourteenth street
Theatre. in New York. that when the
curt lin fCll at the close of the tense
death-defying scene, prominent thcat-
riCalsman offered the author Of thc play.
Joseph Arthur, 100000 for the prOduc-
tion.
The sum offered Arthur for the play
before it had even completed its first
performance was Il large one for those
times but the author refused the offer.
All the critics declared Blue Jeans the
sensational mclodramatiC success of the
day and capacity audiences were the
rule during its long engagement. Tnc
play has been "A perennial attraction
ever since, and there Is scarcely stock
company that has not played this sue
cess from two to twenty times. Abroad
also. especially in England, Blue
Jeans" has been a popular thriller In
Greater New York. where the original
play ran for three years. more than
500 different stock productions have
been made
The sawmill scene. which proved such
a sensation on the stage is said to have
been produced with even greater realism
by Metro in the picture version. as 1t
was staged in "a regular mill in actual
operation .near RoSlyn, l.. l. The mill
owners. conlilin, Tubby & Conklin, had
all seen the original stage presentation

HOOVER FACESFOE'
in SUGAR ATTACK
Food Chief Invades En-
emy Camp at Senate
Probe of Shortage
HOT CLASH EXPECTED
Subcommittee Feels Affronted
Over Administrators De-
mand to Give Testimony
WASHINGTON Ian. .


Herbert Hoover. food administrator
was In the camp Of the enemy today.
when Hoover appeared before the
Senate subcommittee to offer his cxpa-
nation of the sugar shortage there was
no doubt that senatorial investigators
would he hostile. The feeling was large
ly one of affronted dignity.
Early in the investigation Hoover de-
manded the right to appear before the
committee. but ii was not the PLEASURE
of the committee to hear him at that
time. Finally a date was set when
Hoover would be heard Then II was
found that in order to hear the food ad-
ministrator il would he necessary to
split his testimony and take only part
of it before the Christmas recess. Mem
bers of the committee decided that this
would not be fair They asked r 4.
Ellis, of the food administration, IL ii
would be acceptable for Hoovcrs tcsti-
mony to be postponed until after Christ
mas. Ellis asseSed, and it was ar
ranged that Hoover would be heard on
December rs
The food administrator then sent Il
written statement to the committee and
asked that it he read into the records
In executive session the committee de
cided to reject the 'ex parte" statement
until Hoover could "bc examined as any
other Witness The committee re-
cessed and several days later Hoovers
statement was issued from the White
House. With the statement came re-
ports that Hoover had found it necessary
to appeal to President Wilson to get his
side of the issue before the public All
of this caused considerable displeasurc
to the Senate subcommittee and Hoover
was steadily losing favor.
The final blast came on December IS
when Hoover failed to appear as schcd-
uled before the committee. but sent "a
note instead saying that he had been
called to New York "to attend an inn
portant conference This action killed
the last traces of the Hoover sentiment
that remained with the committee. An
executive session was held and public
statement was made to the effect that
the committee had given Hoover a fair
deal and "a telegram was then sent to
the food administrator asking him to APP
pear "whenever convenient" and he
named today.
Senators declare that Hoover has alb
solutely no basis for charges that he has
been unfairly treated They said that
but one witness unfavorable to the food
administration had been heard-claus A.
Spreckels-and they say this witness
was chosen at random. ON the other
hand. they point out that Earl -. Babst,
of the American Sugar Refining Com
pany and the food administration. and
George NJ Rolph. of the food adminstra-
tion. have been given five days on the
stand

sstent opponent Of Hoover. Senator
