' It's tough to think that La Grande can't he a stop the Pasco-Elko airmail line when it seems lhat most the forcW stops are made here anyway. TABOOING CARNIVAL "GAMES" It is said that one of the inherent instincts of human nature is the almost uncontrollable desire to gamble. "Retcha it won't rain tomorrow' and "Betchu it will;" again, "I'll play the black horse jockey number 5(" are expressions .which probably never will be forgotten- They are a part , of America's unwritten history. But because of the tend : vency of .certajn jockeys o old to "throw" . a race, or a pitcher t to "throw" a baseball game, ov in the light of one maiv&o - ing a better weather prognosticator than another, as well as the moral quality at issue, laws have been passed against gambling. , . , , , t. i :' In La Grande, slot machines and minchboards have been banned for like reasons. Moreover, when municipalities nave neen called on to consider drastic action atrainst al . leged gambling devices, one question which nearly always has arisen has been that of whether the player gets "value received. Be that as it may, one cannot punch boards or .' drop nickles in the slot in La Grande. It is only fair, there fore, that a transient organization misnamed a "carnival" should not be permitted to conduct what are alleged to be games of chance in which an element of gambling may be involved, I he city government is to be congratulated for its stand with regard to the carnival here now. Again there is the question of whether value is received. POKTIANn.

For Hie sake of brevity, La Grande's monthly com munity sales day the next which will be Wednesday of the cominjr week hns been described as n trade extension movement or "special merchandise offering for one day only by La Grande's lending; stores." Mark you, however, it is much more than this. It is opportunity day for tho farmer. For this particu lar day each month he may list with the chamber of com merce secretary articles or stock or implements which he wishes to sell at nuction. Last month a large crowd attend-! cd the auction sale. This month there is a larger list of items to be disposed of in the same way, ranging in de scription from a saddle to a Ford touring car, from a pair of Angora chaps to a cream separator, with horses, cows and calves interspersed. These things are of interest to both the buyer and the seller in that neither has to pay a fee to have the stuff offei-ed for sale at the auction. Then, too, community sales day is nn invitation to the butter and egg men to bring in their product, realize the cash from these and have the wherewithal to lako multitudinous bargains offered in the stores- Vegetables liZr nZulZi in season aiso win und a market how. -r recta. All in all, it is n day highly worth one's while. One can save the cost of the jrasoline consumed on the trip to La Grande in just a few simple purchases. After that the bargains one takes should show clear profit. Cominp; as it does but once each month it takes, little of one's time, whereas the benefits are lusting. With intelligent spending on that one day's visit it should be possible to show oneself ;gain to cover the entire thirty days. and fabrics may have, been tmed. one. after another, so that some thing npvcl hut not too expensive Is wanted. , . Today, the tendency in wall treatment Is towurd stippled, palm finished, texturcd-and-glazed, "an tluuutcd' und oilier rough surfaced effects for walls and ceilings. Theso can ho produced with Baud-flouted or llincputty-flnlshud gypsum plas ter, Hut what Ih wanted Is a ma lerlal thut will give these, effects without re-plaaterlng, over oh) walls, that is wash n bio and pos sible for the housewife herself, or husband, to apply. There are several materials avail able which meet the.se specifica tions. They are pain Us which come, as dry white powders which, when mixed with water, become plastic. Then dry pigment or oil paint of any desired huo or shade or tint Is stirred In. und the material Is brushed onto the wall. Hut, while Hut wall paints and calcimines are liquid, these ma- erlals have body, so, before they try, the.vo can be stippled with an ordinary stippling brush, or given a acroll texture with the flngcr tlp.M. or a palm finish can be pro duced with the palm of the hand, or the material run he manipulated with brush, putty knife or even the heel of a kitchen spoon to pro duce any distinctive texture that may be wnnled, f one of these p In tie paints Is to bo applied over new plaster or wallhoard, it is beNt to size the surface first with a good gtado of varnish sine, if it Is to he put on to old papered walls, the paper should he removed first; cracks should he pat ueil, ttnd the sizing brushed onto the walls when they are dry. Where It is desired to make the walls washable, a final coat of slxe should he added nu the out side of tho decorated surface. Then oap und water will not affect eith er the texture or tho color of the plastic decoration. The variety of texture. lone coni hlnntlons possible with such ma tt rials Is limited only by the Imag ination and skill of the decorator. trente top heavy 910.A5 paid early: best weight $10.50; best yearling fit). 40; trade for young steers and desirable light heifers uniformly competitive.
