S. l-8tf THE CHIMES Lord, through this hour Be Thou our guide, So, by Thy power, No foot shall slide. Everyone who has lived within sound of the Bells of Westminster is familiar with the verse given above. The origin of the carillon has never been positively established. Some writers accredit it to a Mr. Crouch, who was a pupil of Dr. Randall, Regius Professor of Music. This, how ever, is disputed by other writers who accredit it to Dr. Randall's conception of the idea taken from a movement m the fifth bar of the opening of Haen dcl's Symphony, "I know that my Re ceemer liveth." The Chimes were first l'tted to the Clock of University church, St- Mary'1; the Great, in Cam : idge, but were not copied until they were reproduced on a very large scale m the Victoria Clock Tower of the Houses of Parliament. As a home institution serving the people of this -locality enjoying your gi od will and business favors, w-i have in the past endeavored to show our ap preciation by presenting our patrons with calendars and novelties and oth erwise recognizing your co-operation i:i mnking this a serviceable and suc cessful banking house. Years of prosperous banking have btcn made possible only by your sup port. We wanted to show our appre ciation in a substantial way and have therefore purchased of the manufac turers, the McClintock-IJomis Com pany of Minneapolis, Minnesota, in cluding the exclusive rights for this c:ty, a large handsome clock combined with a set of soft and most beautiful chimes. At the quarter, half and three-quarter hour, these Chimes will ring out in various musical combinations; at quar ter past the hour, four Rtrokes West minster, at half past the hour, eight strokes Reveille; at three-quarters past the hour, twelve strokes Cathe dral peal; and on the hour, sixteen strokes Westminster, followed by the clriking of the full hour, in a clear vibrant tone. May we hope that the Chimes will mean something to all of our people that they will have a message for tho youngster on his way to school; a thought for the business man who hus tles through his day; a solace for the old. Every day of the week the chimes will be sounding their message the ncte of warning spoken in time; the chime of rejoicing; the lament in time cf sorrow. This chime will be all things to all men for it is going to be lt ng not to us alone, but to men and women and children of our community. LA GRANDE NATIONAL BANK, La Grande, Oregon.

Darland, over Putman's. Adv. January 10th last day to pay water rent without penalty. l-8-2t The Y. M. C. A. basketball team de feated the Imbler hown team Satur day night at the Y. M. C. A. gym i.asium by the score of 49 to 14. The score does not, by any means, show the playing ability of Imbler; the team is a fast one, but the fr-.ct that they were playing on a new floor and the baskets wcro new to them made their score so low. The Imbler team had scores of shots for baskets but could not ring them. A return game will soon be played at Imbler and tho local boys are expecting that it will sure be a battle rayol. All of the It cal players showed excellent playing a-.bility. Larson, Nilcs and Brownell each played their fast game, but the flaying of tho guards, Fritz Lottos and "Bee Barton, wan clearly a fea ture, many times the two guard were defending the basket from three of the Imbler players. the Savoy Hotel, and states that he twill give prices and estimates to any one desiring to have work done for the future. Kamela Kamcla, Jan. 8. (Special) The weather has been very disagreeable this past week. There has been eith er snow or rain every day so far. The snowplow has been quite busy keeping the track free from snow. The railroad has employed a number of men on the section. It is not known just exactly how deep the snow is, but it is somewhere near 5 1-2 feet. The woodhaulcrs have become disguested and announce their intention to quit. They have worked for three weeks and now they have no roads, nor any foundation as the snow underneath is rotten and tho horses go in up to their bellies. Several have injured their horses and gained noth ing. The railroad has taken one of the light engines off of the Kamcla help er service. Business getting slack again after the rush is the reason giv en. The wipers say they only had one engine to clean Thursday night. School started Tuesday but many of the pupils could not go on account of the grippa which, seems to maintain good hold on Kamela. Mrs. John Currart returned home? from La Grande Friday morning. She went down to se the doctor as she has been quite ill. Her two boys, Johm and Dan, have also been quite ill. Ed Wetzel was hurt by the steam plow Friday. His hip waa cut an couple teeth knocked loose. Ho waa taken to La Grande. , Wallowa Miss Laid to Final" Rest ' Wallowa, Ore., Jan. 8. (Special) The funeral service of Miss Grace Me-.
