FOUR MEN MAKE
PERILOUS JOURNEY
DOWN BIG HORN

Safe and sound, Charles Belden is
back at the z Bar 7 ranch on the
G1eybull, and Judge P. W. Metz of the
Fifth Wyoming judicial district is
again attending to his official duties
in the Big Horn basin after a most
perilous boat trip down through the
deep Big Horn canyon, journey of
some 225 miles. Mr.. Belden, who is
an expert camera man, took some
1000 feet of motion picture films, and
some SO still pictures as well, of the
beauty spots of the deep water way.
Starting Aug. s at Basin. Wyo., in
an 18-foot skiff, with five-foot beam,
christened "The Spirit of the Pitch
fork Belden, accompanied by Alton
Wickwire and Carl Dunrod, in the
skiff, and Judge Metz plotting "Hell
Diver" an inflated boat, the party
proceeded down the turbulent Big
horn river and entered the canyon
where they were to be 10 days and a
half in the water before emerging on
the other side of the mountains at
Hardin.
The trip was not made without
slight mishaps and the sailors were
wet much of the time. The rapids
were shot in real fashion, and Judge
Metz found himself inside and outside
Of his boat alternately much of the
time. Side trips were made in the
tributary canyons, and in all it is
estimated that the party Travelled 90
miles, the canyon being some 70 miles
in length itself.
This is the first party which il
known to have braved the Big Horn
canyon since 1924, when two printers
Charles McEachron of Cody, and Tet
Huntington of Lowell successful!
made the trip. In 1915 a party o
five were drowned in the canyon, ant
before that time very few men hat
ever successfully negotiated the waite
Journey through the mountains.
Appearing at Billings Saturday
clad in their rough sailor attire, bu
happy after their experiences, the mel
boarded a train for the return to tn
Big Horn basin and home. Mr.. Belde'
states that the trip was one of man,

Dubious

When the late car of Russia was
staying at Balmoral, he and the late
King Edward then prince of Wales,
went for a walk on the moors. Com
ing home they met an elderly man in
a cart and asked if he would give
then a lift. The prince, thinking that
it would be of interest to the man to
know whom he had driven, told him
that this was the car of Russia and
that he was the prince of Wales.
"Ou ay," said the man, "and I'm
the president of America"

Binding Vow

A Jepthah vow is one which is to be
kept regardless of consequences, and
is commonly supposed to be derived
from the Bible story of Jepthah, the
leader of band of brigands, who, be-
fore going into battle against the Am
monities, vowed that if successful he
would sacrifice whatever was the first
thing to cross the threshold of his own
door when he returned triumphant.
His daughter was the first enc to adj
vance to meet him. 1t is recorded that
he sacrificed her according to his vow.

The Pharisees were the re-
ligious leaders of the Jews.
They exercised great authority
among the people because Of the
close affiliation between the re-
ligious and legal codes.
Often these Pharisees were
utterly without sincerity. The
very word .pharisee" has be-
come q synonym in our modern
speech for hypocrisy.
It has been wisely said it is
not fair to indict a nation, and
it is equally true that it is
impossible, with any justice, to
indict 4 large class of men.
Not all Pharisees were hypo-
critics. Nicodemus was q notable
exception. However cautious the
man who came to Jesus by night
may have been, there can be no
doubt of his inherent sincerity.
1t is safe to say, however,
that organized religion was never
at a lower ebb than during the
time Of the Master. The church
was in the hands Of those who
had no sympathy for the people.
The religious ritualism of the
day tended toward q cold and
formal worship. The Temple
was a place where the worship
of God had degcnerated into
routine Of form and ceremony.
The majority of the priests were
selfish. The leaders Of the day
were without prophetic vision.
The Pharisees, theoretically
believing in Immortality, were,
as a class, without any vital
faith in q spiritual interpreta-
ton Of life.
The patience of Christ was
proverbiaI. No virtue in His
character stood out more con-
spicuously than His charity with
the great masses Of men. But

TOMORROW'S SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON

toward hypocrisy He had little
tolerance.
The religion taught by Christ
was vivid. His message was
for the great masses Of men.
He taught the fatherhood OF God
and the brotherhood of men. To
Him all life was good, and all
men were the children OF .
benevolent Father.
Against the teachings and per-
sonality of the Master all OF
the power of the Jewish church
was thrown. The religious
authorities of the day could see
nothing in the young Galileean
peasant but a rival to their
ecclesiastical authority.
When the Pharisees saw the
disciples of Christ eat bread
with unwashed hands they found
fault. The tradition of the day
forbade the eating of food with
out first washing the hands.
Jesus, of course, holding no
OUJGCLlOH 10 tuc ClCdAo1AS Va
hands before the partaking of
food, yet saw the absurdity of
applying the tradition as an
ironcIad rule. Rightly He taught
that the washing of the hands
at a certain time had nothing
to do with religion.
The words of the Savior,
"these people indeed honoreth
me with their lips, but their
hearts are far from me-" re-
ferred to the words of the
prophet Isaiah, descriptive of
those who observed the traditions
of religion, but were lacking in
any true love of God.
Jesus did not hesitate to de-
nounce the religious Journalism
of His day. Tolerant of all
other sins, He was yet intolerant
Of hypocrisy.
