"The Presbyterian" states that the Franklin Presbyterian Church at Frank– lin, Idaho, received fourteen members on April 29th as a result of special meet– ings conducted by the pastor and Rev. E. W. Hallowell ('17), Sabbath-school ,missionary. R. S. Dunham, '21, recently assumed the duties of Secretary-Treasurer of the Northwestern Evangelistic Association, Los Angeles. A group of Bible Institute graduates are doing a worth-while vvork in Los An– geles in the South Los Angeles Commun– ity Church, which was started by n. I. folks and is carried on by them. A Sun– day school was organized in February two years ago in a rented hall. No help from other churches has been received and services are now being held in a new church upon which there is no debt. B. I. people working here are David Schmidt, pastor, I. R. Wall, assistant pastor; Sunday school \vorkers, Miss Belle Crain, Miss Mary Agnes Reid, Miss Marie Siemens. A wonderful field is before them and prayer is needed. Harold Roberts writes from Scotia, Calif, as follows: "We\ are in Scotia, the home of the Pacific I ...umber Co. Have a church and hope this summer to get in the camps some. It is hard uphill work but the Lord is blessing us and we re– joice in the work He has given us here. We have a boy now nine months old. He is as good as he could be. There are several thousand men up here (in camps) and I am the only worker among them. Scotia has a population of 2200 and only the one church."

THE TRU.TH OF CHRIST By E dgar Cooper Mason

Truth is eternal; existent with God ; Changeless and fixed as a measuring- . rod;, Grounded In equity, fitness and right, Nothing can conquer Its Infinite might. Falsehood and error In darkness may reign, Duping the people with reasonings vain; Yet, when the cycle floods In with the light, Truth stands, the Victor, in gar ments of white. Truth never changes; forever the same; Though false assumption would tarnish her fame; Investigation, with unbiased mind, Clear for the Truth vindication shall find. Human opinions, in science and art, Change with tomorrow, as knowledge– in-part; Truth only waits for the eye to behold What through the ages has sought to be told. Truth Is immortal, it never shall die; Light for the error and death for the lie; Truth Is a light shining clear as the sun, Proving the right, showing error to shun. Truth in the Christ is revealed clear and plain, Living in Him without blemish or stain; This is His claim, mid the doubt and the strife: "I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life." Florida, N. Y.
