WHY NOT ERECT MONUMENT TO . : . EYE? - Some writer from the national capi tal drifts into the following argument about erecting a monument to Eve: , While we are talking about monu ments and memorials, what's the mis ter with a monument to Eve? By all accounts, Eve was a great woman. She was our universal an cestor. None of the genealogists ever get any farther back than Eve. And Eve was a suffragist. She was an equal partner with the "head of the house" (let us call him so. by courtesy anyway) in the fruit orchard known as , Eden. If Adam didn't feel like trying the qualities of the apple or lemon, as , some believe It to have been (while the Callfornlans declare it was an orange), Eve Invented the Initiative to meet the occasion, and so became the first progressive. What though both Adam and Eve suffered the "recall" In consequence? Eve still deserves a monument at the hands of her, descendants, for the habit of eat ing fruit has survived to this day, and who would be willing now to forego the benefits of the great discovery of Eve's that fruit whether apples, lem ons, oranges, figs or what not are good for the system and beneficial to the complexion, besides adding to the family expense account unless' grown in your own batk yafdf ' 1 Perhaps' we have not shown Eva so much honor as she deserves because the earlier chroniclers did not dress up their facts with as much wealthj-of descriptive laudation as marks the ef fusion on the society page of the Journals of today. It Is not too late , to honor Eve. Why not have congress A Working Capital of Over $215,000.00 Inspires Confidence in This Bank.

The people of La Grande ought to be grateful to the noble hearted ladles vho have had the : courage ' and the loreftlght to procure and beautify for tie use of the people, the spot known as Riverside Park. 'f' A walk along the winding road and cter the four arched bridges, with the lagoon flowing softly underneath, the dense green foliage of the trees, green grass all : around, and the soft mur mur of the rippling river as It flows on its way to the great Pacific, all combine to tony a picture of rare beauty. , ' . ' ' ..The Increasing number , oft Sunday visitors show that the Park stead ily growing in popularity - as city dwellers are enabled by a short walk to get in the midst of sylvan scenes, which surely are beneficial to every one In the way of change, fresh air and Invigorating exercise. , The Park never was In better shape for the approaching Chautauqua, and the opportunity to camp n this beau tiful spot, and live close to nature will be appreciated by a great many, to say nothing of the other attrac tions provided fo rby the manage ment. ; ' . .
