Bible Thought. For Todaj
CMIEAT THINGS: 1'ear Iho WJ
ami sim-vc hint in truth: for consider
how trrrat thictjrn he huth done for
you. Samuel V1:'Z.
SUPPORTING THE Y. M. C. A.
H must lie done there must U. support given to the
lY. 31. C A. In times when the money is jumping freely
everyone re.joires in giving to the " Y," but when the
money situation tightens up there may be an inclination
among some, to cut their personal budget to such an ex
tent that all donations will be' curtailed or eliminated.
kYhile eveit.-one should lie the architect of his own affairs,
and economy is a most noted gem in the makeup of every
individual, the; Evening Observer believes that it is not
economy to fail to support the few institutions which La
.Grande has, one of them being the Y. 3L ('. A.
The economical feature of having a " Y" is apparent
i'or it returns dividends a hundred fold for what is put in
it, Avhenever the right man is in charge. Fortunately La
(Jrande has such a man now and the results .on the young
arc to bo seen. " ' .' . .. - .
With proper leadership the institution is not a loaf
ing place, neither is it'aif invitation to the Iditci'er'prthc
seeker for the easy side of life, features which this news
paper has always' inwardly it-It accompany many Y. M.
(J. A. institutions. J Jut it can bo." hud is being made a place
t,ol encourage industry and thrift among the (young as well
as to encourage physical exercise.
There need be one' addition to tliM institution and
that is a work1 departntent wherein every hoy ami girl can
earn his or her membership ftlo instead of having it do
nated by the community as is now the case. Hut that is
a detail which can be worked lout later, and the tiiostioii
he fore the house now is to support the "Y" because it
is economy and good business judgment to do so.
MULTNOMAH'S EXTRAVAGANCE
'Although rich, very rich; Containing a large popula
tion of brokers who neither sow nor spin; who harvest
nothing from the virgin soil, .Multnomah county, with all
of her brjnktiragc ingenuity, her skill at collecting interest
and demanding the tithing from the "producing sections,
her able captains of industry: who never' have been
thwarted in a financial plan, Multnomah county- now finds
herself iu the red ink. tier ledger balance is on the wrong
Side and her hnancial (roubles aiie beginning to shako th
yerv foundatiion tit' that beautiful marble court bouse.
, When misery has companv misery is not so hard to
Lear, therefore the .hardships of the upstate counties lost
to a certain extent, their galling irritation caused by pub
lic indebtedness when they know that Multnomah is in
the same condition.

Once upoA a time a love epi.tle
ended with the warning to "lium this
letter" and the ivcipient did. Now
you tell one.
WIIATS THE I'SK?
Dt was the man of science
Who to the flapper said,
"I see a trace upon your faio
Of arsenate of lead.
My duty is to warn you
That, if you don't eschew
The powder rait, you'll be a hug
Before you're forty-two!
"And a for paint, it's poison;
That lovely shade of pink
You dab in streaks across your cheeks
Ih carbureted zinc.
It ruins tiie complexion.
And kills the appetite;
At forty-three you're bound to be
A most appalling si(ht."
It was the placid flapper
Who heard the words we quote.
And went ahead mid powderej lea f
Upon her, face and throat.
And also daily tinted
iler full and rounded cheeks
A lovely, piik, vith sirobs of zinc,
In undulating strefcks.
For flappers are but flappers,
And that's the reason why
Th''y take advice with liuks of. ice
And scorn to make reply.
And if they're old and uifly
When t'ley are forty-two,
They'll slap on paint without restraint
The way their mothers do.

N. K. West & C'o.'s wash fabrics are always "d,iffereiit." Today there's a dealer variety
of them than we've ever shown before. The lin t that they are representative of the best etlorls
of American and European designers and UNtile experts, costs notliiiiB extra excepting the extra
trouble iwe ko to In securlnK such fahrirs. It DOES however, add a (.-reat deal of charm and
distinction to the summery frocks they fashion, even when dot-doped in the simplest manner.
And what is easier than to make dainty frocks since the modern paper pattern has done away
with fill the old dressmaking troubles.
Come Mild see how reasonable these lovely new fabrics are priced.

JUST GOOD SENSE
Secretary of the Treasury .Mellon is an old chap whom
sentiment does not sway nor popularity waver.
Jle tells the people just what shape thle nation is in
financially and all of congress cannot make him take
il back.
Instead (of passing the buck, which is the habit at
the capital .Mr. .Mellon tells all of us that the e.Hi uses ol
the national government will cause.i a heaviy deficit this
year ami also next year and instead of being what was
originally estimated, it is very likely to greatly exewed
iite iiguivs.
We do thinirs different from the
older set. Years back, when popper
was flyinrr kites, they used to claim
we chased the almighty $ Now all
the world knows we do no such thing
What we chase now is the almighty
