Grande are to have a rare treat in the
near future, Oct. 30, when Pauline
Miller Chapman, mezzo contralto, will

Gersten and with that master of voice
teachers of Berlin Lamperti. Don't
forget the date, Oct. 30th, and reserve
it. She will be accompanied by her
husband who is a noted artist on the
violin, having studied with Bernhard
Listeman and Tivalar Gaches.

A quasi-social event that attracted
lovers of theatricals, took place Mon
day evening when a troup of drama
tists including Mr. and Mrs. C. M.
DeVere of this city, presented "The
Lion and the Mouse." It was a fine
attraction, well played and well in
terpreted. As we recall it the pres
ent company has it over the troupe
that played the production when it
first came out and with nationally
famous interpreters in he roles.

The Mauer Sisters certainly made
a big hit with our audience last even
ing as was evidenced by the record
breaking number of encores called for.
They were most enthusiastically re
ceived by our patrons and the senti
ment seemed to be quite generally
prevalent that they were the best en
tertainers of the season. In handling
their various instruments the girls
proved themselves artists and their
whole performance was characterized
by vivacity and good nature that com
pletely captivated their audience. We
hope to have the Mauers with us
again. E. Ra Mosher, State Normal,

Why Vote Pendleton $125,000
for something we already posses a State Normal School plant in
Eastern Oregon?
Why vote an annual tax of one-twenty-fifth of a mill for a
Pendleton Normal when one-fortieth of a mill would provide ample
maintenance for tho Weston Normal? ;;
...... ;. , ......... T .
Do you want to be out of pocket $325,000 in ten years ? This
is' the Approximate sum that a Pendleton Normal would cost over
and above the cost of the Weston 'Normal, allowing for a nominal
increase in state valuations.
Every man, woman and child in Oregon is annually taxed $30,
according to A. H. Harris, a Portland writer. Taxes for all pur- '
poses in 1916 reached the enormous total of $22,000,920.94. Schools
alone coat $7,000,000. Why toss tax money away by granting Pendle
ton's absurd demands ?
Why Not Reopen the Weston Plant?
It's ready for use and consists of four buildings and ten acres
of ground. It has been recently inspected and approved by such
' prominent architects as Beezer Bros, of Seattle and Osterman &
Siebert of Walla Walla. Beezer Bros, say that $2000 properly ex
pended on the principal building would bring it to an "almost perfect
condition." These substantial taxpayers, officials and men of affairs -denounce
the Pendleton scheme as one of "extravagant folly:" '

Mayor of Athena; B. B. Richards, Recorder of Athena; H.
. A. Barrett, Merchant, Athena; C. A. Barrett, State Sen
. ator, Athena; H. B. Lee, ex-County Commissioner, Milton;
" J. F. Slover, Merchant, Freewater; C. D. Hobbs, Mayor - '
of Milton; H. L; Frazier, ex-County Comm'r. Milton.
Why did not Pendleton confine her bill to a normal school propo
sition? Why does she seek to "validate ' institutions that are firmly
and lawfully established? Is it not clear that this is a vote-catching
device? Isn't it "log-rolling" of the rankest variety?
And finally, would you care to send your children to a town
impregnated with Round-Up atmosphere ? Isn't it a fact that a great
Round-Up towmi is for that very reason a poor state school town?
Would you want your children to carouse, dance and gamble in
Happy Canyon or to even witness its wanton revelry?

Come In And Let Me Tell You About My
New Farm Loan
A 20 Year Amortized Rural Credit Loan
No Commission No Renewals
TO UNION COUNTY FARMERS:-
For several years I have been working and
planning for easier money to loan on good old Grand
Ronde farm lands.
Finally I have arranged with one of the largest
loaning companies (a company that has $85,000,000
loaned to the farmers of the West) for a real Eural
Credit loan based on a 20-year amortized plan. 20
equal payments of but little more than current in
terest pays off your entire debt.
You pay no commissions, choose your own date
of payment and pay at your own bank. You can pay
any amount of your loan at any time- This plan
figures you a saving of nearly 3 per cent over the
usual farm loan made heretofore in this county.' If
interested call and let me explain fully.
