No comes Justice Thomas A.' McBrido who, not being
under oath, deposeth and affirms that golf and poker are
about in the same class insofar as exercise for the he-man
goes.
','" The. standing of Justice McBride as an eminent jurist,
a fine citizen and as a hundred point man is legend in the
state of Oregon and in' the entire northwest, therefore his
classification of golf with the national game of poker will
have a strong tendency to elevate that popular pastime and
lnake those who are addicted to the golf habit feel much
better. v ,
But the justice realizes that exercise for the human
body is needful, c He was a miner at Auburn in the early
days and he mined with a pick and shovel which gavo him
exercise aplenty. He was a senior partner in a sawmill on
the lower Columbia once when he attended the edger and
saw that the big fir slabs were properly piled. lie also
has farmed and knows the exercise encountered -in tilling
the stubborn soil. .
With all .this evidence regarding exercise he is eminently

What 'Is Time?
.When the automobiles go hurriedly past, when social
and business agents crowd each other in La Grande we
hear some one say, "Oh, the country is moving so fast no
one has any time-for anything."
Possibly- true. But what is time?
In the, list of what may "be called the chief character
istics of bur present-era may' be found the assertion that
this is an age when "nobody has any time." On this point
practically all tho observers and critics of our social order
are agreed.. ' , ;
They draw their proof for this assertion from the even
increasing speed of our means of transportation. A half
hour Veduction in the time it takes to go from Chicago
to New York; a mile added to the record of the number
per hour in airplane travel; a half hour gained in a trans
Atlantic trip these are events that our hurrying age greets
iWith joy. We have no time to dully.
Thus runs the lament of the critics. But is it indeed
n matter of such grave concern? True, there was a time
'when -'men had moro leisure than they . take to themselves
today but we have yet to learn that in those days men
had a' greater abundance either in social progress or human
happiness than wo have today.
i We can't deny that we are in a hurry, but as compared
toi more leisurely periods in history it isn't to be denied
"that we get things done. And after all that's what counts.

That was a graceful thing the Portland Oregonian did
when it pi-eseuttid all pionoci-s of the metropolis with free
tickets to see the "Covered Wagon." We believe that
picture is appreciated more by the men and women who
actually blazed the Old Oregon Trail than anything (hat
has been written or screened in a lifetime.
