The Prince
Up in Alberta Prof. Carijde, ,who is well known in La
Grande and who judged the-Unlon'SJoclr show for several
years, Is making ready to receiVe' the Prince of Wales on
the big royalty ranch which the professor is employed
operate. .. . J! V Ut.i !1
, The prince has sailed for America and he did it without
any fusspr pomp- He is a, democratic fellow and believes
In having a good time in the world;'
; Almost everything that . is published iabout the Prince
of Wales reveals him as a most Jikable chap democratic,
ffood-jiatured, fond, of Americans..'.;, A London cable of a
few' days' ago, for example," told of1 his inviting an Ameri
can banjo'plnyer to visit; orie' of thie royal -residences and
play rfor him. The prince, the story goes, took part in the
entertainment by beating, a drum. - Another cable of the
sums day mentioned ttiftt.'jbe; prince 'chose an American
, performer, Nora Hayes, as his dancing partner in opening
a bail.-'- ' 1 . Y'V" ;.'- " :
'Vf royal hijjjsi Ijj ifiPrtngHh, Jested. Strips late
i tnts month on a holiday.; ; He, wants no. fuss and ceremony.
There-is no question that' he wili be immensely popular.
One might get the impression that all that the prince
. is concerned with is "having a ood time." He seems for
ever to be merely playing and going, on junkets. The fact
' to, Jiowever, that what seems to be play is really his work.
jHe promotes good feeling. His j visit to the United States
J is hot just a pleasure, trip.' It will help strengthen the
'friendly relations existing between Our' nation and his.
Movies
.However much one may decry the pernicious influence
of the movies as exerted through films depicting in an
. alluiintr1 light scenes of crime, vice and' villainy, it must
he admitted that they aie Mso a potent . factor for good.
This" phase of motion pictures id strongly suggested by a
1ondon dispatch telling of an expedition which is about
to set' forth in an effort to obtain "animated views of the
Sahara desert. ... ' ; t ;.
' There are parts of this vast expanse' of barren land
which .have never been filmed because of the dangers that'
beset .travelers. An Englishman famous for the travel j
pictures whick he has taken Jn remote places is now going!
to attempt to photograph the dangerous area of the Sa-!
. hara. ! Ho takes the position that moving pictures of the I
desert cannot be considered as complete until this part
h;us also been portrayed. With the aid of his brother he
hr.s already taken 30,000 feet of film in the Sahara. They
have, been at the task two years and have spent $G0,000
,vn it. But there remains 400 miles yet to be traversed,
if the series is to be comprehensive, and ho is undertaking
the journey, though nine white men, according to the Lon
don' cable, have already perished in previous attempts.
Pictures isuch as these have educational value. They
enabje millions to enjoy the benefits of travel in the wild
est regions without risk and at negligible expense. All
the Nvorld is being filmed, and the pictures are bringing
home to us, as nothing else could save an actual trip, the
appearance of the various countries, the life of the inhabi
tants, their customs and manned. .
v We have an enormous advantage in this respect over
the poopln who lived before motion pictures were- in
vented. There is scarcely a boy or girl who does not have
a fairly vivid and accurate idea, of numerous places of
which he had only a vague conception until he saw them
in the movies. ' .
Won't it seem strange when you drive out East Adams
"With ''your machine after it is paved. , For so long the
spring-breaking street has been a menace to even the slow
driver that the general public will scarcely know how to
act" (when a hard surface pavement lets .the machine slip!
into town without shsuung oil

INDIAN CONVENTION.
Springfield News: Along the wa
tera of the Arkansas a few duys
ago, near Sand Springs, Okla., an
unusual gathering was held. Thou
sands of Indians met to discuss
tribal and racial affairs and form
an organization, tho purpose- of
which Is to provide a mean by
which tho affairs of the Indians
in America may be taken cure of
in a business like and practical
manner. Primitive dances of their
fathers were engaged in and the
smoke from camp fires drifted oft
in all directions with the chaugiug
wind. Jn other days the parents
of these present tribesmen .were
accustomed to seek the fastnesses
of th Arkansas river and here his
tory was made. There is no more
romantic period In our history than
the one, which Is couple' with the
life of the Indian.
Men do not have to be, very old
to recall tho days of advent urn
with wandering Indian tribes.
Gradually the new-born. civilization
lias driven the red man into reser
vations, but It hus not entirely Im
poverished him. You will find in
many parts of the country Unlay
-Indians worth hundreds of thou
sunds of dollars, acquired through,
jsale of rich oii lands. Is it little
. U(aur. in
stances there should have been or
ganized an association to protect
;tho Indian. l'ew or the tribesmen
possess any business ability und all
of them recognize the need for pro
tection from the smart white men
w-ho In sojiic instunces. would not
let his conscience hurt him If he
took away from - the , primitive
American all thut he now possesses.

Hrllain probably will be c,lhd tip-
on soon to decide whether title to
the vast properties of the Russian
Church in this country shall go to
the Soviet government, or to Rus
sian Church Interests outside ot
Hussia. -
The controversy Involves hun
dreds of thousands of dollars ol
property In Jerusalem and vicinity.
as well as In Bethlehem, Nazareth
and Haifa, consisting of churches
monasteries, hospices, parks and
other valuable jilots of laud , Une
of the churches is in the Garden ot
Gelhsenvane and another on the
Mount of Olives.-
The Metropolitan Antoutn. head
of the Moly Russian Synod In Pal
estine, has arrived here in connec
tion with the case, lie is an an
nounced czurist and believes his
action will secure title to 'these
holdings.
In connection with the Soviet's
cluim, the interesting question
u rises whether the Soviet can di
vorce the church from thu stale
und yet claim property belonging
to the church.
