From recent editorials in the Pendleton East-Oregonian
we would assume that Pendleton business interests have a
case of the "blues." It is not a peculiar malady, especially
-in agricultural communities such as theirs. There are sev
, oral thousand cities similarly afflicted in the Middle West,
;but it's temporary. And, after all, business is good for
'those who mako it good. Business men not interested
: enough to work for good business have no real alibi.
Jy A Dartmouth college professor, in an address before
.I.the Association of American Universities, says that our
1-eollcges are facing a crisis' brought on by their own succi&s,'
that they are being flooded with students without discrimv
filiating thought as to what they want or why they want
.jt. This is a very true condition and constitutes n real
education problem in itself. Many young people who have
t;a serious desire for higher education are unable to realize
;it, to be sure, but thousands of students are enrolled in
Jnir colleges, on the other hand, without proper appreciation
Jfor their freedom and enjoyment that school days make
jKissible. A proper culling process has not yet been devised.
WORLD COURT ENTRY ASSURED.
(J In spite of the continued opposition on the part of Soli
citor Borah and a handful of other senators who are "agin
the government" generally, there is every indication that
,-the entry of the United States into the World Court will
.I realized during the next few months. Recent happen
.ings in Europe have aided the court supporters and Presi
dent Coolidge is expected to urge our entry ardently at the
coming session of congress.
v Senator Swanson, of Virginia, has taken a poll of the
senate and roiwrU 1G members as opposed or doubtful at
the most, while S3 votes against the court would be re
quired to defeat our participation. It is the Virginia sen
ator's resolution that will come up for a vote nt this session
and ho is confident of success when the roll call is made
around the first of the new year. In discussing the couit
lie is quoted as follows: "I know of no episode in contem
porary foreign relations that has enlisted so widespread
and popular supixirt in America as the proposal that we
should join the World Court. The churches are virtually
a unit for it. Our great woman electorate roundly half
of the nation's voting population is practically solid for it.
lairrent events in Europe have immeasurably strengthenc.
me world Court cause m the United States. The people
have not failed to note that the Locarno peace pacts pro
vide for eventual settlement by the World Court of differ
ences between the contracting parties that are not adjudi
cated by iirbitnl bodies provided in the parts tht nuoh : ;."
It is this public sentiment that is making il.'. li' (. 't
in the senate, as it should, and it is only a iio..::.u nf t:; .o
until public opinion regarding the League r Naiiims will 1 r
sufficiently reversed to bring about America's membership
in that IkkI.v. It has been inevitable for some time and
the recent activities of the league that piove its utility
lnd value are having no small amount ef influence.

THE flared silhouette has' definitely intrenched itself. The smartest
frock is the one that has a slightly draped Princess bodice with an j
extremely short skirt flared at the side, at the back, at the front, or
all the way around.
Sleeves are delightful in their versatility. Long, tight sleeves flare
at the cuff; loose, flowing models are caught in unexpectedly at the
wrist.
Trimmings are gorgeous and barbarically colorful. Vivacious em- '
broideries are everywhere.' They brighten the sleeve, add dash to the
back of a collar, wind in gay profusion about the mere wisps of skirts -they
are wearing these days.
It will be a pleasure to show you this inspiring new collection from
