The Sierra Club, second largest in the United States, with a membership of 2,000, has 355 applications for ad mittance to its party, but has decided to limit its personnel to 200, because of difficulty of providing pack trains and commissary for a larger number in the rough country to be traversed, This next will be the nineteenth an nual outing of the club, and from Bos ton to San Francisco men and women are overhauling sleeping bags and camping costumes in anticipation. The Si^prans will spend their vaca tion among the peaks and valleys of the Middle fork of the Kings river, the North fork of the Kings, and the South fork of the San Joaquin. They will climb snowy peaks more than 13.000 feet high, pass through canyons 5.000 and 6,000 feet deep, and make a camp at the base of the wonderful Tehipite fall, 1,800 feet high—a rival of the Yosemite. Two main parties of the Sierra Club will leave San Francisco and Los An geles July 2, in Pullman cars. During the following four weeks they will sleep'in rain-proof bags, and at least a part of the time their only eating utensils will be a tin cup and a spoon. There will be as many women as men on the outing, and most of them will wear men’s attire. The California Alpine Club of San Francisco, which last year on its first outing climbed Mount Whitney, high est peak in the United States, will start its two weeks’ excursion this year from the General Grant National park, July 11. From that home of the tremendous sequoia gigantea trees their schedule calls for such rapid traveling that only fifty seasoned men and women hikers will be taken. From a camp in Vidette Meadows, at an alti tude of 9,500 feet, climbs will be made of Mount Keith, University peak, Mount Stanford, Deerhorn mountain and Junction peak, all topping 13,000 feet, and of Mount Brewer, considered one of the most difficult ascents in the Sierra Nevada. Returning, the Alpine party will visit the Sequoia National park and pa: homage to the General Sherman, i sequoia gigantea 179.9 feet high, witl a circumference of 113 feet. It is th< king tree of the world, and has main tained its stately eminence some 3,00< years. Fresh Ever-Ready Flashlight Bat I teries, all sizes.

The world is full of men who are making good livings but poor lives. A lie has no legs. It requires othei lies to support it. Men are religious naturally. Thej are Christians supernaturally. Do not take the truths from the Bible second-hand. Some men use their religion only as a life preserver; only during a storm Christianity has suffered little from those who bear not the name of Christ It has suffered much from those whc do.
