La Grande right now the entire lineup of papers are pushing for the national convention .for T.n Grande in 1912. Jn the Amateur Oregoulan, : the editor Mr. Gekelen t numerates some of the reasons why this convention an event of no mean importance by anymeans, for it brings together many talented men who in one way or another belong to the as sociationshould come to La Grande in the year mentioned; Because the last two conventions have been held In Eastern cities and this rightly belongs to the West. '..; - Because Oregon ,1s one of the very strongest states In , membership and has never had a United Convention. Because La Grande is centrally lo cated for the majority of the mem bers of the Northwest. ' Because La Grande haa on a nf th ; strongest and moBt enthusiastic Clubs ui iuo vvcbi, - . Because La Grande will give the United a square deal. Because the Outlook Press Club promises royal entertainment and good time for all. The Outlook's Second Number. Volume One, Number Two, of the Outlook ,. is Just off the press the press in this instance is a small af fair, but it prints a nice clean im pression and is biz enough to aconm- modate two five by nine forms at one time and la owned bv Mr. Happersett XI V V:,--A.O tiimtiohiMdBaSfe Have You S een r ' .
