DyJv,nius Almost any good doctor can discover what is the matter with a patient if the patient is tongue-tied. Some folks have no sense of humor and then then; jire others who simply have a sense of bad humor. After enjoying n picture or a Ixiok, it is rather di.; heartening to read some critic's opinion that the thing ap peals only to IkriIis. Large boards on each highway approach calling atten tion of the tourist to the "Wonders of Wallowa," and carry ing the legend, "1m (Jrande The Gateway to Wallowa ial;e Wonderland," are one of the city's immediate requirement:; if the greatest possible number of visitors are to be s i nned this and subsequent seasons. The Observer hopc that they can be had before many weeks pass and before the season is too far advanced.

Alleged ( milium Arreted I.KaiTINC Till'. lU SINKSS DISTRICT. As pointed out by The Observer last fall, onss of the imixirtant needs of the city's business district is adequate, lighting, l.a Grande makes an excellent appeal ancc by day and measures up to all the demands that a population of 10.(1(1(1 ordinarily makes; yet by night the stieet light ing in the business aiea is so inadequate and disappointing that the city is dwarfed and first impressions made under that condition are lar from being creditable. A city's i p pearance is not everything, but it is a most worthy coi, nideration. If the question of a charter amendment to piepare for improvement of this condition Knes an t!v special election ballot, as it most certainly should, the ma jority in its favor should be overwhelming. I'loper light ing in the business distiict will not only increase property values therein but will also make the entire city more at tractive and a more pleasant place in which to live. , lie 11) late d parlm I'ot ia tan inn tin- Taetm-.Aric; std' lil i 'oolldii'-'s made putt nai ri'l.tttttK iw urd, and ply.
