SERMONETTES
WE ARE DEBTORS
To The Doctors

And He called the twelve to-
gether, and gave them power and
authority over all demons, and to
cure diseases. And He sent them
forth to preach the Kingdom of
God, and to heal the sick. And
they departed, and went through
out the villages, preaching the
gospel, and healing everywhere
Luke 8: 1, 2, 6.
Me have often accepted the fam
lily as free gift of society. Yet
in some tragic hour when a loved
one has been restored to us or
when our own health has been
regained, we begin to appreciate
the doctor and realize that we owe
an unpayable debt, not only to
him but to countless persons liv
ing and dead who made his
knowledge and training possible.
To whom can we pay such debt?
Surely not through the compare
lively small fee which we give
the doctor!
People in Jesus day felt the
healing power coming from the
sympathetic hand of the Master.
AS their bodies were freed from
the bondage of disease, what did
they think? Jesus always turned
their attention to the goodness of
the Heavenly Father.
Because God has created life
and the laws of life and has
created minds able to understand
these laws and thus bring healing
to man, we ought to be deeply
grateful, not only to God but to
the one we call "our Doctor"

Housing Authority officials expect
to have shelter for some 1000
families. vanport had over twice
that. Some have already been
housed in projects where there
was some room. Others have
moved away but hundreds still

welcomes is sometimes wearing
thin.

court to eviet his tenants Van

Trailer Homes Unpopular
Trailer homes is the only i'm
mediate answer. The govern
ment is taking wartime trailers
out of storage. The Federal Works
Administration has already re-
ceived 500 and more are on the
way.
But the vanport people don't
want trailers-and the city IL not
decided where to put them. Both
are afraid the temporary homes
will become permanent.
Flood waters now have left the
waterfront streets of Portland.
Highways and rail lines are open

There has been no outbreak of
disease. With thousands of per-

YAKIMA VALLEY PIONEERS

Yakima Valley Pioneers have a
great bond. They are inheritors
and disseminators of a splendid
past in which they shared the
common struggle to transform an
arid waste into smiling farm land.
They fought together the choking
summer dust, marauding Indians,
or the seemingly utter hopeless
ness over the gigantic task of
grubbing sagebrush in the days
when the monster mechanical ro-
bots of the present were not even
on blueprints. For that reason
the annual pioneer gatherings al
ways display warm fellowship
not unlike that which marks re-
unions of veterans of bloody bat
ties. At this years Pioneer AS
ISOLATION picnic there were two
highlights as unforgettable as any
from the stored past. One came
when J. Bounds, tied to a wheel
chair but with a voice of as reso-
lutte timbre as when he was the
associations kid orator. 80
years ago, spoke of memories
and of his assured faith In the
future.
The other was when Mrs. Mar
garet Malone paid her debt of
gratitude to Barber" Jackson.
