Many Deer in State
OF California

California has population of
300, 900 to 100000 deer. according to
estimates of the California fish and
game commission and the United
States forest service.
In the national forest alone, chief
ly in Northern and Central Californ-
ia, the deer are estimated to number
$1,000. In the state there are forty
million acres classified as deer"
country"
The deer are increasing despite the
fact that hunters each year kill
twenty thousand bucks. Mountain
lions, however, are comparatively few
in the state, estimates placing their
number at about three hundred.
Since 1907, when a bounty was put
ON lions and a state hunter employ
ed, 410S of the big cats have been
killed, an average of 257 yearly. 1t
is estimated that a lion will kill one
deer each week Other causes, di
sease, accident and coyotes are be-
lieved to account for another thirty
thousand deaths of deer annually.
Thus the estimated yearly death rate
of the deer is 100000.

Lutheran Pastor
To Preach On
"The Mockery''

A most pathetic and instructive ac-
count in the record of the crucifxion
of Christ is that of the mockery that
was heard around His cross. While
the soldiers were busy with the
preparatory part of their hideous
work. the crowd stood silent. No
blow of the hammer driving the
rugged nails thru His hands and feet
was lost: and silent were they when
the cross, with the Victim pinioned
to IL, was raised and settled in its
place. But when lifted up for all to
behold was the fact they had buffet
ted and sit upon, when the lips of
the sufferer had parted in a prayer
for pardon-"Father, forgive them,
for they know not what they do
there broke out from the assembled
throats a storm Of clamor and in
suits, a wild flood of derision and
mockery, making the air ring with
vituperations, with all sorts of sting
ing sarcastic remarks, taunts and
questions.
THE Mockery" is the subject
chosen for the Lenten discourse at
Trinity Lutheran church Sunday. Who
were they that made themselves guilty
of il? What did they say and do?
In the midst of Christ's deepest de-
graduation, are there testimonies to
His dignity and glory? II that cru
cifixion scene were to be acted over
today. would there still be found
those who in the hatred of their
hearts would do the same as that
motely crowd about the cross?
Two services will be held Sunday,
German at 10:30 a. m, English at
S p. m. The choir will sing in the
English service. IL you have no
church home in the valley the men,
bers Of Trinity Lutheran church ex-
tend a cordial invitation to you to
worship with them.
