phere and the clean sparkling humor
which everyone enjoys. The music
of "The Campus" is Irresistibly at
tractive, there being 18 . song lilts,
among which are the dainty duet
"How-de-do," the rag time, "I Leave
It to You," the rousing Pipe and Stein I
song, a novelty number "Spooks":'
charmingly sung and danced by Miss I
Davies and the Freslile girls, the in- I
ternatlonal proposal duet between Mr.
De Leon and Miss Davies, "The Same
Old Love," Mr. Hartmon's own Con
tribution being an especially fine
number, "Before You Are Old," and
Walter De Leon's song that everyone
enjoys, sings and whistles, "Is Every
body Happy." Of the many character
types of both young and old people
whom De Leon has drawn, there are
none that are not absolutely natural
and are easily recognizable. Good
natured wit, Ihe ardor of youthful
sentiment and clean, wholesome com
edy run riot" through the three acts.
The dialogue Is eminently natural,
the humor of the piece depends upon
its comedy sltuatons more than It
does upon high flown or stilted dialogue.
It does seem strange that some people permit themselves ..to fret into one
rut and there remain. .'
This week a man came into my office, whom I thought owned his home and
when I asked him how long since he purchased, he replied, "Why, I have
lived in La Grande for the tast twelve years and never bought. I have some
times thought I would but it seemed I never got to it." .
Inquiry revealed the fact that this man has paid on an average of $20 per
month, which means that he has paid out $2,880 and has nothing to show for
it. .
Had my friend invested soon after coming here he would today be living in
a $2,000 home all paid for. Not only that, he would have been a better fath
er, a-better husband and a better citizen. The possession of a home creates an
independence that no one can possess in a rented property.
"Weidare say there are no less than fifty people in La Grande today who
occassionally think about buying a home but keep on paying the other fellow
when if they will come to my office I will show them hoAv easy it is to save this
- constant drain on the family purse.

Sometimes people say: "Yes, electric lights are very
nice but they cost more than kerosene lamps and we
can't afford them." '
If low cost la your only requirement In e light, then
why not go back to candle? They are cheaper still.
You get about what you pay for In light, as in anything
else. If you pay "candle-price" you get candle light.' If '
you burn kerosene lamps, you have to put up with their
shortcomings. But when you pay for electricity, you get
