There Is a song that is as old as
Mt Emily almost entitled "Count
your Blessings," and Its verses give
good advice. Not only does that ad
vice apply to most seviiuua, Lut I
of especial lmportar.ee to La Grande
and vicinity..
You walk down the street and some
man will say, "Just wait until we get
the Hill railroad through here and
tbjBn we will grow." Another party
may say, "we need an electric line
through the valley and then , devel
opment, will begin." ' ' , .
With such men as make these re
marks all the railroads of Christen
dom would help. They are dead ones
and there is no kind of dynamite that
will ever awaken them. AH they can
do is to pine for something they feel
uncertain about.
Listen to this:
La Grande has more . things to be
thankful for than any town of the
northwest.
We always need railroads, to be
sure, but we have got more actual
resources than any of the other towns
then (Why not begin work with ! what
we have and attempt to build a city?
. Why not take an Invoice of the
great Institutions here and see where
you are at. , ' "'i'. ' ,
Look at the magnlfVent Palmer
mill. Large pay rolls In ever; depart
ment, as complete a manufacturing
establishment as can be found west
ot the Rocky mountains and each day
It turns the crude timber of Union
and Wallowa counties Into money the
greater part of this Is spent in and
around this) city.
Up the canyon a little ways is an
other big lumbering institution the
Grande Ronde , Lumber company
which is of large commercial Import
ance to this city. Then there is the
sugar factory, 'as magnificent and as
complete a sugar refinery as can be
found.- This Is an enterprise that cir
culates big money In La Grande and
vlcinty during the course of a year,
Besides these are creameries. Iron
foundry, brick and tile plant and ma
ny other institutions. '
Tak an Invoice or what Is already
here, you man who thinks the town
. must wait for. another railroad.
And after you have taken that In
voice, don't Bit down t6 a game of
polobut resolve In your own mind
that you will do something in the
world; that you will add something to
La Grande's splendid output and be
counted among her producers Instead
of among her loaners of which class
she has entirely too many.
Don't wait for something to turn
up, but go out and dig.
If you can't prosper in a, city where
1150,000 Is turned loose every month,
where In the 'mischief do you expect
to find a place that will suit youT
THE PAY OF HOSPITAL TREAT.
. 3TETT
: Hospitals are a direct blessing to
every community. It has not been
so long since hospitals were far
imrt and the person who became
seriously 111 In the country was fore
ed to put up with the crude methods
of handling bIce people. .
Knxr however. It Is different and
everr town that has passed the vll
lage state has a hospital, and usually
fhar are very good. La oranae
frtptunate In.thla respect for there Is
a local hospital here that U managed
by competent people. It la more or
less of a local pride and people who
a tniured or become aeriousiy u
find It a great convenience and often
times has heen the cause of saving
Evey physician of today will ad
mit that pood nurBlng Is about as tm-
portant as the medicine given, hence
the hospital service becomes of great
benefit to any patient.
, ,,It would indeed be hard to live
without hospitals nowadays.
