Change In Ownership, With this issue of the La Grande Evening Observer complete control of this newspaper, its business and policy, pusses from Bruce Dennis, who has been with the publica tion for many years, to Frank B, Appleby, late of Iowa, who located in La Grande and became associated with the .Evening; Observer about: four months ago. Mr. Dennis," the former editor, will continue to make his home in .La Grande, and while retaining a minor in terest in the paper he will not be associated with its pub lication actively other than to occasionally contribute arti cles for the columns of the paper. He will give his time to the sheep business and to the management -of his live stock ranch. It is a change he has contemplated for some time and was brought about when Mr. Appleby, after becoming acquainted with La Grande and its people, ex pressed a desire to become a permanent citizen here. The lies of friendship and association formed by Mi Dennis during his many active years' work with La Grande people ! will not be severed, for ho will continue his residence here. Mr. Appleby is a young, energetic newspaperman from the state of Iowa whera ho ban-spent--his .lifoi as a pub lisher, achieving most excellent results. He is a graduate !of Grinnell, a veteran of the World war, having served as iin "officer iii the infantry in France. His wife is a graduate 'of ' Smith college, Northampton, Mass., where she was 'un assistant on the ni t department faculty prior to the war. . While now occupying an enviable position among the jnowspnpei's of the northwest, the Evening Observer will jcontinue to improve under the ownership and active man agement of Mr. TVppleby, who is thoroughly modern in his jthought, able in business, and eminently fair and just in liis judgment as to proper policy for the paper to continue :to pursue. i,A GRANDE EVENING OBSERVER PUBLISHING CO.

I V " ' For' some Valentine Day has more special Kignifieanee' Jhan for others, but probably Jonathan King, of London,! England is one to whom the day means more in n way thuh any other similar occasion. King has the greatest collection of valentine's in the world. His valentines fill ?,000 scrap books and no two specimens are alike. King U very proud of his collection. He has devoted his life1 to gathering it from all parts of the world. And yet his 2,000 volumes of valentines do not mean so much to him as the one valentine from her swcetheait means to r.ny La Ornnde girl or young woman. Real wealth is not in material possessions: love is the greatest form of riches. Small wonder.
