The family met Sam at the train in
the evening and took him to the
Frank Turner home where the
various lady members of the Turner
family had prepared turkey feed in
his honor.
Dinner was served at $50 there
being fourteen Turner'S present to
partake as follows: Mr.. and Mrs. r.
W. Turner, Mr.. and Mrs. 10y M.
Turner, Mr.. and Mrs. Jesse o. Turn
er, Sam ]. Turner, Anita Turner,
John Turner, Robert Turner, Jean
ette Turner, Anabel Turner, Mr. and
Mrs. Frank Turner.
Two of the family. Mr. and Mrs.
Harry Turner were i'll, with influenza

through the efforts of S. H. Board
man, chairman of the irrigation
committee of the Morrow County
Farm Bureau, for the organization
of an irrigation district under the
John Day project. Mr.. Boardman is
pushing this work right along, in con-
junction with County Agent Brown,
who is rendering every assistance he
can to get the district permanently
organized. The work of organiza-
ton will be completed just as
rapidly as possible, as it is under
stood that this is the most feasible
plan by which to get at the problem.
The getting together of necessary
data and maps will be a part of the
preliminary work, and then it will be
up to the County Court to levy a
small assessment on the acreage
within the boundaries of the district
for the purpose of defraying the nee
essary expense in connection with the
preliminary work. This organiza-
tion will cover the lands under the
proposed project in Umatilla, Nor
row and Gillian counties, who will
Join in the project,
Mr.. Brown recognizes the fact that
there is a big task before the COM
mittee but considers this the only
practical way of going about getting
what is desired. If, after having
worked out all details, it is found
that the ultimate cost of putting
over the project is going to be too
great, then the Committee will be
ready to abandon the job along these
lines and proceed to work in some
other way They fully realize the
bigness of the task before them, and
are certainly going into it with a
spirit that means success, if possible
to attain that goal, and in their
efforts they will be entitled to re-
ceive all possible encouragement
A special election to create the
district, will be called soon by the
County Court, who are being petit
toned to that effect.

Service.

The second element of Christian
ity, the first specifically mentioned
by James, is service. l suppose no
one is SO literally minded as TO think
that anyones Christian social obli-
cations are all fulfilled by merely
visiting widows and the fatherless in
their aflliction, James must GER
tainly have intended by the mention
Of these two things to indicate a
great range OF activities which might
be termed Doing good" or Service
to Others" In much the same way
Jesus pictures the judgment and ap-
plies to those before Him the test of
service. The deeds specified are:
giving food to the hungry, drink to
the thirsty. hospitality to strangers,
clothing the naked, visiting the sick
and those in prison. Surely, how
ever, other deeds of kindness, mercy,
and helpfulness will be recognized
Paul said: do good unto all men.
Jesus said: Love your neighbor as
yourself Let your light SO shine
before men that they may see your
good works" Freely ye have re
ceived, freely give" Service to
others is an essential element of
Christianity. 1t is the positive and
active element. 1t is easy for man
to say, Il have faith" Show me
your faith by your works. Faith
apart from works is dead 1t is
harder for a man to do than it is to
say, The testimony of the deeds is
heard from earth to heaven. Do not
make the mistake by thinking that
good deeds alone are sufficient. Ser
vice without faith is dead. You can
not merit Gods favor by your
beneyolence or social service unless
you do these things as Christian,
a follower of Him who sacrificed life
and all things for our sake. Service
Is measured by opportunity and
ability.
