Harris Dam Work Started,
Equipment !ms been moved to
the site of the Norris D un prepura
tory to starting tests e.riy this
week to determine the underlying
nature of tire place where this great
wall of masonry will rear its height
250 above bed rock.
An exploration shaft measuring
six by nine feet will be. sunk on
the west bank of the Clinch river
at a point to reach bed rock at a
depth of about too feet. In con¬
junction, two other tunnels wil[ be
bored into fbe opposite hill on
which will rest lie other end ol
the 3,000 foot gravity type barrier
that wi I impound water tor t] -oil
control and incidental power anri
nrvigation pnrp >ses.
Some of the drilling equipment
comes Prom M use'e Shoals; t he
rest of it has been obtained locally
in Knoxville, 20 miles southeast of
the dam site. It has ail been haul¬
ed to the point of operation. There
is a fairly good road to the site ex
cejut for the last mile.
Roy Whittlesy is in charge of
the drilling. Twenty men will
work in two shifts, This force in¬
cludes 10 drillers, (wo powder men
and the rest helpers. About 800
tons of material will be removed.
The foundation tests are under the
supervision of John L. Savage,one
of the designers of the Boulder and
Madden dams, who has been loan¬
ed to the Authority by the Recla¬
mation Bureau of the Interior De¬
partment.
Arrangements have been made
to carry on this work pending ac¬
quisition of land at the dam site by
fames YV Cooper, land attorney
for the Authority. This p-elimi
aty job will consume about two
weeks.
The next step will be stripping
the dam site to a width of about
too feet. .It will require about
two weeks to remove trees and top
soil. This work will be done by
50 men from the immediate locality
It is the poliqy of the] Authority to
employ local help wherever pos
stble. There are more unemploy¬
ed in the vicinity than can be ust^l
at present. It is possible that
foundation plans may have to be
changed when excavations expose
the character of the underlying
rock. If so, the Authority can dr
this work more readily with :t
own force.
About 2 oo men are conducting
surveys in the locality pending ac¬
quisition of land for a town site as
as well as for the dam and reser¬
voir. Mr. Cooper, who has es
tablished his office at Jacksboro,
Tennessee, is doing the appraising
Meanwhile the Authority s
geologists have assembled 750 bag
of samples of rock and other ma¬
terials from the locality which may
be used in construction workjThe-sr
bags will be shipped to the office
of the Reclamation Bureau at Den¬
ver which will test the materials
with this purpose in view.
All these activities give but a
meager idea of the vast amount ol
preliminary work necessary to in
sure tne stability and safetygof this
mass of more than 600,000 cube
yards of concrete that, according
to tentative plans, will be 185 feet
wide at its base.

J
Billy Sunday, Sam [ones, and
other gteat evangelists of this
eration and tin* past
drew crowds and moved crowds
not just because they were job]
personalities. They did the
been use t hey could preach. Sami
Jones startled the crowds with lii.-s I
peculiar style of saying things. But 1
in every great meeting he conduct
ed, there were a tew services when
Jones preached the Gospei
with tremendous power,
were the services when
complished his results.
In the Bob Jones College we j
had last year about fifty young!
met) studying for the ministry. ! j
tell these boys that they cannot till i
be great preachers [but that they | ;
can all preach a great gospel They
human, but their message is j
divine. Men may reject the mes¬
senger, but they cannot reject the 1
message without doing it at the !
peril of their souls.
"I don’t like the way he preach j
es.” That is what a young lady
siid to tne about a certain preacb
er .. llow do you like what don’t] he |
prenche8? » 1 inquired. "1
know”, she said ; "I just don't like
Ins style.” This young lady
thought site was very cultured and!
broad. As a matter of fact, she j
was very narrow. 1 go to a dtning
room and the waiter brings me ■
well cooked, palatable food. 1
d«n’t like the waiter, therefore, 1
won’t eat the food. That is not
my way of doing things. I don’t
eat the waijer, but id lie brings me
go*d food, 1 eat it. 1 make it a I
rule to accept truth from whatever j
source it may come, even though it ;
brought to me by by Ofudb tries -1
sengers. j
"I like Dr. So and-so. When!
lie preaches Ire makes me feel so ‘
good. I go to his church thinking
J am a sinner, and I come away
feeling like a saint.” 1 heard that
o-ne time from a very cultured
woman "Did you know Jvou can
give a mart who has cancer a hy¬
podermic of morphine and make
him feel good? But that is not
what he * needs. He needs at)
operation.” That was my answer
Nowhere does the Bible tell a
preacher to comfort sinners. It is
the business of a minister to make
sianers uncomfortable. Comfort
the saints—that is religious. Com¬
fort signers while they are in sin—
that is wicked.
Religion is reliance. Every
man has some kind of religion.
That is, he relies on something for
salvation. He may rely upon the
hope that there is no hell. He may
lely on his morality. He may rely
upon his church membefship. A
Christian is a person who refic
upon the atoning blood ot Je . 11 -«
Christ lor salvation. In othet
words,a man knowing that lie can
not save himself, depends upon
what Jesus Christ did lor him
when He died on the cross
