ground and by faith looks to the nat
ural law for the rain and sunshine
to develop it--faith! Great ships
pillow the mighty deep by faith. Men
traverse continents with lines of rail-
way by faith, expecting te receive
commercial advantage there b y.
Everything we do is by faith. So
again I say-you destroy mans faith
and you strike death blow.
Faith Difficult of Definition.
Faith is difficult Of definition. No
word fully expresses it--belief, trust,
assurance, fidelity-yet we have not
given a definition Of faith. Belief,
trust, assurance, fidelity-human Ian
guage is incapable Of defining 1t ac-
curately. A word is not unchanging
like a figure. You take the word
Man: how much it may mean, or how
little, depends upon the individual.
Faith may be the act of an angel or
of a demon. Then again, the under
standing of it has little to do with
the exercise of it. The phenomenon
of sight has little to do with seeing.
We see only the reflection-not the
thing itself. A bird can see as easily
as a man-so we might speak Of
digestion. We use it, yet we do not
know it. Faith ought to be exer-
cised in the same way. ought to be a
part Of our makeup so sublime that
we would exercise it constantly and
be unconscious of it. 1t is an act of
the mind, and yet mystery. So long
as we cannot define life and sight and
digestion and mind and all these
things, we ought not to worry be-
cause we cannot define faith.
Faith is a superstructure. This
text gives us only one aspect of faith,
and IL its relation to truth was un-
derstood or known we would call it
superstructure, for faith rests on
truth, and hope on faith, for when
truth is known then faith is estab-
lished-and now to the Scripture:
Did not the apostle say, Faith comes
by hearing and hearing by the word
of God?" Faith rests on truth-hope
on faith.

France Demands Definite Guarantees
and Declines German
Promises
BY WEBB MILLER.

PARIS, April 1S.-Complete plans
for military and economic coercion
of Germany on May /. have been SUBJ
mitted to the allies by Premier
BRAND.
The plans which were drawn up at
conference last night BRAND, Pres
ident Millerand, Marshals Foch and
Petain and Minister of Liberated
Regions Locheur, included occupa-
ton Of the Ruhr district and posi-
bly, industrial Westphalia.
Upon Foch's recommendations, it
was decided to recall the military
classes of 1918 and 1919 for three
months. The marshal expressed the
belief that 100000 men were "suf-
ficient to keep the Germans in
check"
Locheur presented customs
scheme, whereby France would OBJ
tain three billion marks annually
from the Rhur.
France Demands Guarantees
In submitting the plans to the al
lies for approval, BRAND emphasized
that France demands definite guar
antees and is not disposed to listen
to further German promises.
Under the term Of the treaty of
Versailles, 10000. 100000 marks are
due from Germany on May /. But the
government, with the time growing
short insists upon talking counter
proposals with the United States as
an intermediary.

said, is likely to include:

NAVY WILL ACCEPT
OIL DRILLING BIDS
Secretary DENLY Says .Pri-
vate Companies Drain
Reserve Lands
WILL TAKE ROYALTY
Action Is Reversal of Policy Pursued
BY Former Secretary
Daniels

WASHINGTON, April 1S.-Secre-
tary of the Navy DENLY has announc-
ed that naval oil reserve lands in
California will be opened immediate
ly for drilling by private interests.
The reason for this action, DENLY
said, is because present drilling op-
erations being carried on by private
concerns just outside the border of
the naval reserve lands are slowly
draining off the oil from the gov
eminent territory.
Navy Will Take Royalty
The offer to private interests to
start drilling operations in the naval
reserve is to save as much Of this
oil near the border Of the reserve as
possible, DENLY said. The navy will
retain a certain amount of the oil
brought out as royalty.
DENLY said that some thought had
been given to the navy carrying on
the drilling operations itself, but that
this has been considered unwise at
the present time.
OIL reserve No / in California Is
the only territory to be opened up in
this manner at the present time
DENLY said.
Bids for leases to drill was to be
be offered soon by the navy.
This is the first time to his knowl.
edge, DENLY said, that the naval oil
reserves have ever been opened fol
private operation.
Denby's action is reversal Of the
policy of former Secretary of the
Navy Daniels, who refused to oper
the naval reserve declaring the navy
would need the oil for its oil burning
vessels. This step also was opposed
by conservationists.
Instructions have been sent by
DENLY to Lieutenant Commander L
F. Lands that sealed proposals
will be received until noon, April Is
at the postoffice building, San Fran
cisco, or at the bureau Of engineering
Of the navy department at Washing
ton for a lease of strip Of lane
with petroleum naval reserve"

man to get the ideas from he chose
Mr.. II. L. Palmer, of Spanaway, who
matches and sells day-old chicks
from very highest class Tancred
strain of white leghorns.
Mr. Palmer's suggestions were
! used without his knowing a test Of
any kind was to be made.
While this formula was being per-
fected Mr.. Bolster was instructed to
arrange for meeting of practical
poultrymen from different localities
on his territory.
The dealers in the several towns
in the best poultry sections were
asked to suggest few poultrymen
from their localities whom they
knew to be practical and successful
feeders.
From the names suggested the fol-
lowing poultrymen were selected and
invited to attend:
Messrs. A. Torongo, CT Elma;
Clarence Glenn and J. E. Hill, Of
Montesano; J. l.. Shearer, of Gen.
tralia; F. w. Nye, e. H. Knicker-
booker and Thos. Wildin, Of Roches-
ter; H. E. Palmer, F. G.. Smith and
B. H. Wittum, of Tacoma; J. Y.
Patton and w. A. Naismith, of Olym-
pia.
When Mr.. Kenworthy finished
reading the chick mash formula, the
climax of the test had been reached,
and he paused moment while the
samples were being examined, before
asking what changes were desired
Mr.. Knickerbocker, of Rochester,
was the first to express himself.
This is what he said: "How in h
are you going to make better chick
mash than that"
Each pOultryman agreed that no
change was necessary, and when Mr..
Kenworthy told them how the form
ula had been obtained, Mr.. Palmer
was the most surprised man in the
bunch, but remembered having an
swered Mr.. Francis questions re-
garding the mixture.
This proved beyond a doubt that
the youltrymen do know and can
agree on how poultry feeds should
be mixed.
In every other formula for mash
mixtures slight changes were called
for, this being the only one that q
poultryman's ideas had been carried
out to the exact letter.
The result convinced Mr.. Ken
worthy from now on it will pay to
make feeds as poultrymen want
them, and he assured them that Just
as soon as new formulas can be reg
istered and new bags printed these
feeds will be made just as suggested
by those present.
The visitors were very much Inn
pressed with the results Of the meet
ing and when Mr.. Kenworthy
thanked them for their attendance
and the assistance they had given,
they expressed their appreciation at
having been invited to cooperate.

Co. is one of the most extensive grain

PIONEER SLEEPING QUARTERS

PIONEER SLEEPING QUARTERS
 A writer in the Palimpsest, an east ern magazine, tells the story of how the "Prairies Bunk" was first con structed.> It is known as the one legged bedstead, but it in fact is what is commonly known as the cabin bunk, being built on poles either driven in- to the walls of the cabin or in holes bored in the wall, the outer rail of the bunk being held in place by a forked stick driven into the ground. This was the usual bunk of the prairie householder, but among the miners the bunk was built into the wall, or was built upon poles held in place by four forked sticks driven into the ground. Poles were laid crosswise of this bunk and upon this was covering of "bear grass. Bear grass if long heavy leaved grass, us- ually made use of to thatch the roofs of the cabins, as we'll as to furnish the basis of the miners bunk. The material when used as thatch is one of the best coverings that can be put on a cabin, being much superior to the matching material used in Euro pean countries. Few of these old cabins exist in the mining camps of the southwest, where they were com mon thirty or more years ago.
