-For Your New Home-
If you are building this year specify elec
tric lights. It is safe to say that 00 per
cent of the houses built in La Grande this
year will install them. No home is modern
without them. They are as important as
sanitary plumbing.
Good lights are equally important, how
ever, if you happen to live in a rented
house. Your landlord owes it to you, and
you owe it to yourself to have nothing but
the best light. Electric lights are easily
installed and will prove a source of lasting
satisfaction to you. Call or phone Main 34.

I stand upon the border of the realm of
books
And gaze in vain, with straining eyes
to see
The distant boundaries of this vast
I domain. , -, '
Here a place for history is reserved,
And there the poet's corner placed,
And yonder the great field of ro
mance stretches far
And close beside are stories of the
mighty ones of all the ages past.
Thus on and on, and in form of books,
Is treasured up the every thought of
mortal mind.
My footsteps now toward history s
portals turn,
AnA Vinrp T pnt.er in.
For one short hour I gaze upon the i
panorama ot tne pasi
Those actors on Life's stage, who come
and go.
I hear the clang of arms, the shouts of
triumph, and the wails of woe.
I see the rise of nations and their sad
decay. '
Then wearying, to the Poet's corner
turn.
Here I sit beside deep placid pools,
And watch the play of lights and shad
ows on their wonderous depths.
I listen to the call of wood bird to his
mate
And pluck the fragrant thought flow
ers blooming every where,
Then turn back to the world refreshed.
Now in pensive mood I come, and
straightway
To the field of romance haste with
eairer feet.
I scan full many pages e'er to learn
That Human Love can shake the
thrones of kings,
Can flood with sunlight darkened
dungeon cells
And almost kiss to life the cold dead
lips
Of those who sleep their last long
sleep.
1 pause to read the lives of great ones
now.
Those who suffered much, and much
endured for conscience sake,
Or for a cause that burned hot in their
hpiirts and led them on and on.
Now comes a day when all the world
is dark. I
When heav clouds refuse one glimpse j
of silver lining bright, i
When Life's way stretching Oh, so far I
Seems thickly strewn with hidden :
thorns '
That pierce and wound my bleeding
feet.
Then turn I to the realm of books for
Peace.
Can history ease the pain ?
Ah no, nor poet's song.
What care I now for stories of Earth's
great. 1
They sleep in dust and ashes neath the
sod
And still the world moves on with
lauuhter and with joy.
Romance wide her portals throws

United effort is in progress by the
fruit growers of Union county to clean
up the apple and penr orchards in

mediate action on the part of property
owners, nnd the parties in charge of
property, where applo nnd pear trees
are grown, to make a careful inspec
tion of their trees, and cut out and
burn nil dead wood or branches. The
