Wild Flowers Profuse in Death Valley Vivid desert flowers can now be seen in greater profusion than ever before in the history of Death Valley national monument, according to an announcement made by the San Francisco office of the United States travel bureau, department of the interior. Officials of the bureau, returning from a visit to the monument, report that early rains have resulted in a widespread covering of the valley's many washes, mountainsides and plains with a unique display of desert flora that is making Death Valley and the surrounding country even more popular than it ordinarily is. The travel season at the monument is now at its height. The valley presents an almost verdant appearance unusual even for early spring. National Park service officials stationed at Death Valley expect that the present floral display will extend through early spring and last until the hot weather begins. Visitors to the monument will find the western approach by way of Towne's Pass, and the eastern approaches through Beatty and Death Valley Junction to be in excellent condition at the present time. In view of the fact that this year's bloom, together with the usual spectacular attractions of Death Valley are bringing a record attendance to the monument, accommodations at the hotels and lodges within the monument should be reserved in advance by anyone planning to remain in the area overnight. Facilities are available also at the free government camping-ground for those who are able to bring their own camping equipment. Walter C. Handley, 23, formerly of Santa Ana, was arrested Monday at Bakersfield on a charge of harboring a confessed murderer. Handley is accused of protecting Frank Reavis while the latter was being sought by authorities. He has been turned over to San Diego police for prosecution. There is no failure except by ceasing to try.—Gore. CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCH "O man greatly beloved, fear not: peace be unto thee, be strong, yea, be strong." These words from the Book of Daniel are the Golden Text in the Lesson-Sermon on "Man" on Sunday in all Churches of Christ, Scientist. The Lesson-Sermon includes also these verses about Jesus from John: "Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long does thou make us to doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly. Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me.... My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them to me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. I and my Father are one." Among the passages from the Christian Science textbook, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, are the statements: "Jesus of Nazareth taught and demonstrated man's oneness with the Father; and for this we owe him endless homage." "Man is never God, but spiritual man, made in God's likeness, reflects God."
