FAITH THAT WAS PRACTICAL
Object Lesson in the Determination
of Dominic Joe That He Would
"Make Good"

Cp in the Catskill mountains there
lived q mountaineer who believed that
he had been called to preach the Cos
pei He got license, but he could
get no church to preach in. Indeed,
there was no church within many
miles of where he lived.
For while Dominic Joe, as he was
called, preached In the schO0lhouse,
but, as he was always saying, what
he wanted was "a real proper house
of worship" During week days he
was a Woodworking farmer with
meager resources; and whenever he
spoke of a church to his hard-work-
ing neighbors they would shake their
heads as if they thought him little
queer.
But the dominic did not give up his
plan. Indeed, as time went on he
thought of little else. He even Sc
lected a site for the church-a pref
ty knoll at the edge of his farm.
One evening when he came in from
milking his face was shining. Maria,
he said to his wife, solemnly, "the
trouble with me is that / haven't
had the real kind of faith. After
milking this evening i kneeled down
in the corner of the cow yard where
/ could see the little knoll, and with
my eyes open 1 prayed and prayed
until ! saw the church just as plain
as l see your face. 1t was white
with green shutters and had a tall
steeple; and on top of the steeple.
Maria, was a bright star"
Dominic Joe's wife was worried !;
she feared that his head "had gone
quite wrong"
In the middle of the night the DOM
inie awoke and exclaimed Maria !!
Old Josiah Sturgis' tannery Some
one told me that Josiah had sold the
old tannery site to a city man for
summer place. I'll bet that city
man'll pay to have the tannery pulled
down and carted away And there's
the stuff for our church,!
No one could withstand Dominic
Joe's enthusiasm; that winter the
farmers got together and carted the
timber and the boards of the old tan
merry to the place where today stands
as pretty and neat country church,
as you can see anywhere. Dominic
Joe himself was a fair carpenter.
Country masons and carpenters gave
their work. During the afternoon Of
the church 'raisin'" word went round
that the city man had offered to pay
for a steeple and buy a bell.
A visiting fisherman who frequently
passes Dominic Joe's church says that
ne never sees the big gilt star on the
steeple without thinking of the noun

gazing at the vision of his faith

Limits of Submarine.

In a contribution to the submarine
versus-battleship controversy, Admiral
Sir H. Bacon, quoted in the Scientific
American. states that because of the
CONSTITUTIONAL conditions attending
submarine design, a craft which navi-
gates below water loses a large per
cent of her surface fighting efficiency.
Ton for ton, the fighting and scout
ing efficiency of a submersible craft
of whatever size is only about 10 per
cent of that of the surface vessel.
Sir George Owens Thurston, naval
director of Vickers, Limited, gives fig
ures to show that a submarine of ), 400
tons. having a surface speed of 30
knots, could mount an armament or
only one 5.5-inch and one 3-lnch gun.

The broccoli crop looks fine at

port of association field men who
are making survey of the broc-
coli growing sections of the valley
in preparation for grading, pack
ing and shipping the crop. They

that so cars will be shipped from
there if the weather conditions are
favorable up to harvesting time.
The Oregon Growers will mar
ket all of the Independence broc-
coli this year and it is expected
that the district will become one
of the largest producing centers
of the valley.
Growers are meeting with re-
markable success in planting broc-
coli between the rows of hops ana
are realizing double return from
their land through this system of
interplanting. AS the crop is har-
vested in February and March 1t
does not interfere with the regu-
lar work in the hop yards.
The districts about Independ-
elce, Salem, Sheridan, Amity and
Newberg all produce considerable
qua titles Of the product and it is
estimated that the association will
