Throughout Eastern Oregon there is praise for La Grande in her efforts to hold a Chautauqua assembly this season, and In many cases those com pliments are accompanied by pledged attendance and some .'special attrac tion offered to the assembly from a neighboring community. There seems to be a feeling that It is the proper thing to do ana L& Grande's people appreciate this at titude very much indeed. A Chautau qua assembly is not a business maker, j neither is it an occasion for any strenuous hllarltv. but it is a genuine pleasure to those 'who wish' to -relax twenty Btars. white, in a blue field, for a time and enjoy the best lectures and that on the admission of a new obtainable, hear , good music, con- j State into the Union, one star be add terse with congenial companions' and j to the Union of the Flag; and such be elevated and enlightened by close action take effect on the fourth day mmtnnahln with those whom we of July next, succeeding sucn admis- do not meet every day. , Everything is moving along nlce "y 'with the Grande Ronde Chau tauqua, While this Is the ' first session and necessarily thero will ba many things that can be improved upon another year, yet p!I Yrellmin arles are being arranged In the best manner possible. , Another instance of what it costs to f'Joy ride" Is given to the world by Portland. Two people and a large touring car -went to the bottom of a slough because the Joy ride "bust" be taken. It Is another case of paying the price for what one may term pleasure In this world. You cannot get away from the fact, that when you da something no matter what it j is,you must pay the price. This life is one great big ledger and .no Indi vidual can transgress any of the law of uprightness wi.thout feeling the effects. Sometimes it may be Im agined that escape has been perfect and complete but sooner or later there will be an entry made on the opposite page that will, brim? you up standing and you then realize where in you have given cause for the pun ishment. The world is mighty Just after all, and It is up to each one to Id'Bn his sheet in life's ledger clean. The disposition to have a two county commercial organization seems to be. growing and doubtless liefoje fall there will be steps taken to see If this cannot be accomplished. It Is argued, and we believe with merit, that no one community in the Grande Ronde valley or Wallowa county can carry the load of cost al ways necessitated by wide publicity, but that each community by putting In a reasonable amount can help to ; accumulate a sum which will be suf ficient to accomplish results.

' How can yon make money easier than by buying a tract of Grande Ronde valley land and setting it to fruit trees?. Ask several who havet tried it and you will be surprised at the returns received on money and time invested.

June 14, One hund- red and' thirty-three years, ago today n ftnd gtripeg were adopted Dy Congresg the official flag of the UnJonf an(j( through the effortB of the American Flag Day association, the anniversary was more generally observed in the national capital than ever before. On the 14th day of June, 1777, Con gress enacted: - "That the flag of the thirteen United States be thirteen stripes, alternate red and white; that the Union be thirteen 6tare, white, in a blue field, representing a new con stellation." The rumber of the stripes having been increased by the admis sion of new States, the possibilities of the nation's future development dawn ed upon our fathers, and the original thirteen stripes were unchangeable 1818, when It was enacted: "That from and after the fourth day of July next, the flag of the United State$ be thirteen horizontal stripes, alternate red and white; th t the Union be slon." Since 1818, twenty-Bix stars or sovereign States have been added to f.he Union, making forty-six In all. The M ... Caught H!m Ecth Ways. !

Uut tuere was a rush of traffic nt that moment and he lost sight of tlu'iu. An hour or so later Mr. Olcott was walking up Broadway-when the same young miiu approached bini with an other man, "Are you Chauncey Olcott?" asked the man. "Yes. I am. and 1 want to say that when I told 'yon' n little while ago I was not I didn't know you had a bet on it." I '"Well, I'll be blowed!" exclaimed the Btrancer as he turned disgustedly away.
