( lass Graduated Last Evening and Itc ' cital Last Tuesday Pendleton Academy graduated its class of 1910 last evening at Pendle ton and Miss Sadie Ruth Young of this city was among those who com pleted the course. Speaking of the pupll'g recital which was given on Tuesday night, Miss Young was paid a high compliment in the following: "The pupils' recital last evening was also a rredifahln uprfnrmnnrp i for pupils and teachers alike and was I enjoyea uy a mucn larger crowd tnat that of the preceding night. The most unque program of the week was the class day program afternoon at the Presbyterian church. The usual valedictory and class prophesy were hand and then came the unusual part of the class formed in a circle to "smoke the pipe, of peace" and "burn all their disagreements of the past four years." The "pipe oration" by Miss Sadie Young was a masterpiece. The exercises of the afternoon were brought to aclo se with the class song war dance and r lana yell." -11 11 i q "FT A VlT Tailor and Clemmg Parlor. L. orANuLtK, mgr. t. BAKER. Prep.

Packed with fruit these packages will fill 15.G75 freight cars,' or G25 trains of 25 cars each. The vajue of the crop is estimated at from $15,000,000 to $20,000,000 and may reach a higher figure because of the shortages re ported In the middle western states.

These four lines tell you a world's story bee ause the facts are indisputable that there have been larger and more general fortimos made out of oil than any other mineral known to the earth, and prices steadily advancing because t he demand is close up to the production, with an ever-increasing use to which crude oil and its products may be put. The Geological Survey of the United States h as presented some remarkable figures to the government, antl through it' to the public, con corning the oil area of the State of California, and the amount of oil contained therein. Estimating the quantity of oil there is in the United States acually known to exist, that department of the government states that C alifornia contains a' minimum of FIVE BIL- LION BARRELS (of 42 gallons each) of wh ich there is being produced but four million barrels -per month. One year from, today this Company should be producing at least 200,000 barrels of this oil every month. Can you' see the profits to be d erived from an investment with us? Be a Rockefeller.
