Still Continues With Its Opportunities f PAGE EIGHT xum, Student Publication In Out Again and Editors Win Praise. Quite a number of new classes have been organized this semester, some are the same classes, but on the com pletion of one study they are taking up one that follows it; as in the case of the U. S. history and economics classes, the former taking up Civics and the latter commercial or business law. Other classes are entirely new, such as agriculture, common English, penmanship, solid geometry, wood turning, in . which only the farthest advanced martini training students are members ' A beginners' class in shorthand, which is now reading1 Haw thorne's "The Creat Stone Face" and a boys' domestic science class in which short course in camp cooking is given.

WEST SIDE OF LAKE MAY HAVE ROAD. YET Joseph Believes Road Will Be An Im mense Attraction to City. The proposed new road on the west side of Wallowa Lake, allowed by the county court ' last year, has been knocked out by the circuit court, says the Joseph Herald. This decision was made principally upon the ground tViafr tliA nntica 4ml nnt nnafnH na Inner as the law requires. This defect will be remedied and another effort made j r .-..-- -..-...v to put uns mucn-neeaea roaa tnrougn n. bi.mw.AM TU c nn ,1 ..fill n.non llCAb OUI11I11C1.

The decision of the county court was appealed to the circuit court by owners of land along the proposed route, who claim ed that they were' entitled to more damages than named by the viewers. McALISTER FUNERAL SUNDAY Body to Arrive From Riverside This Evening Funeral Plans Out. Funeral arrangements for inter ment of the late Mrs. D. A. McAlister who died at Riverside, California, this week, have been completed. The body will arrive in the city this evening in charge of the husband and daughter, Mrs. Moss, and on Sunday the body will be laid to rest in the I. 0. O. F. cemetery, after services at the Bap tist church. The church services are set for 2 o'clock. CHANCES ARE ABOUT 5000 ? - TO 50. 5- When you are quietly sitting near your heater reading the do- ings of the day . in La Grande ? and the world at large about S 5000 persons in this city and in 5 y the valley ore doing the same. Somebody has lost an article, or ? $ may want something, or has 5 something to sell. The simplost -V wny to reach so many persons is to insert a little want ad in $ the Observer and you will be talking to about C00O persons ? at the same time. Could you possibly see more than 50 of $ s these persons in one day? It is $ not likely. The busy man lets i $ others do the talking and con- $ serves his energy for the trans $ action. A paper never gets out of breath, never loses energy i and always puts tho proposition in o few lines. If your time is worth money you can't save it more easily than by a want ad. ? S Trying is believing. The Ob- J server is willing to prove it. To Buy Just the Things Along Without And Prices VUO VADIS MAGNIFICENT The first night of Quo Vadis is past history in La Grande.. If there was a biger and more mag nificent picture in the Arcade photo playhouse, we don't know which it was. For scenery and: general gran deur it has anything bested that we know of, or could expect, and when we make this assertion we- are con scious of the fact that every man, woman and child in the Arcade last night will agree with us. If the stu dent of history has not a good idea of the time of the butcher Nero after witnessing this picture-, he never will get it. The acting of the Italians in this f eat drama- and the sce"erj: f the Pe.rnal, c,'-v axl "e mvoluntarilv transnorted to the rf . , 'all that was corrupt on the one hand, i " l lJ ", " -t"' " ... and all that was good and holy, on the other. The scene in the amphi theatre showing a loud, unthinking class of men and women whom noth ing could excite but the most extraor dinary, wild lions marching upon praying Christians whom they threat ened to devour, a mad bull rushing into the arena with a woman tied to his back, and a giant slave rushing into the arena to conquor it, an ex citing chariot race and by the way, a real race help to make this one scene in particular many times worth the price of admission. The whole drama abounds in scenes that "are superb. To describe it, well one would have to devote many columns to it. It will appear here tonight for the last time and we are told it will never appear here again. Ethics Not Violated. Chnuncey E. Bunting 'wishes it an nounced through the columns of the Observer that the article published in Wednesday night's paper, relative to his being recently elected a mem ber of the American Institute of Ar chitects,' was published without his knowledge or consent. He does not wish it to be thought that he had the architectural business of La Grande cornered during the past season, and expressly desires, that work done or performed by other architects be properly credited to them. Card of Thanks. The undersigned wish to thank the many neighbors and friends for their kind assistance and sympathy during the illness and death of their grand daughter, Melva Dooley, who died last Wednesday. They wish espec ially thank the school children of the North Side school for the beautiful wreath of flowers for the funeral. Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Dooley. Billiousness and Constipation Cured.
