i A newspaper the other day tanied two pessimistic news
'items. One told the prophecy of certain "experts" that in
only 300 years, at the present rate of increase, the population
'if Uic world will number 8,000,000,000 people, the absolute
jnaximuni that can be supported on the world's surface. The
oilier news item told Marshal Foch's prophecy that within
;J.r) or 20 years there will be a world war in which every coun
' try on the globe will take part. "Not only the entire manhood
W the nations, but the women and children as well, will le
involved." Lovers of gloom may take their choice as to which
prophecy to pin their terror to. Other readers may see in
the'wnr item a possible escape from the overcrowding1. 8till
others will refuse to worry about either item and will realize
that human genius, scorned at as it often is, may find a way
out of both dilemmas one of these days.
DKKSSING IT K)U THE PARTY
Lh (Irande is gelling ready for the Legion convention
next week in earnest. Decorations are being put on build
ing. streets are flag hung--the business. area is preparing to!
make the most of the crowds that will be here the last three'
days of the week, combining hospitality with the natural!
business that will result from such an event,
j Considering the street decorations, it is probably true;
that not all business houses and shops felt that they could!
afford the expense of the professional decorator. That isj
(Illicitly realized but all business places can, we feel sure,,
take some special care in seeing that their fronts are decor-l
ated, individually. Some bunting or a few flags properly
hung; will help show the hospitable spirit that the entire cum-'
jnuiiity feels, and the opportunity should not be overlooked.!
! Iooking at the city through the eyes of our anticipated;
guests there are several spots that could put up a belter ap-j
pearance, though a remedy is not hardly possible for most
of them before convention time. Near the business district1
are numerous buildings, vacant lots, shacks that do not con-)
tiilmte beauty nor do they add to surrounding properly,
values. - )
U is, of com so, a criticism thai could be made of prac-
tically eveiy town imd city but it is none the less objec
tionable. Some of the old buildings have long been de-L
predated out of existence but are not repaired or painted;
or replaced because the owners sometimes feel the additional
investment would not return the present interest earning.
J'ossibly so, bill we are inclined to doubt the business sense
of such a policy except vhcic capital for needed improve
ment is absolutely unavailable.
i There are probably numerous other things that will come
lo the mind of the average citizen as he thinks of the city in
lei ins of w hat iinpie.-sion the convention crowd will net.
Thelo is also much to be pioud of, much that can be pointed
out as advantages peculiar to l.a Grande. Certainly they
far overshadow (he .shortcomings ami we'll hope that they
are-oither so obvious or so enthusiastically emphasized by
people of the community that the out-of-town throngs will
Hot lie able lo see or lenieinber very many chances for im
provement. ,

When Will You Retire?
And How Much Monthly Income Will
You Need to Live Comfortably?
If you are thirty, or thirty-five or forty years old, how much
longer do you expect to continue active work?
If you could retire at fifty or sixty and have a .sufficient in
.mc to pay the necessities of life, you would he doinp far bet
ter than the average and yet it's not a difficult goal if you plan
and work for it.
Save a dollar a day $."0 a month for the next twenty
years in the La Grande Building & Loan and you will have ac
cumulated an estate of
$18,873.17
Nearly twenty thousand dollars! And you have actually
avcd only $7200 ijttCO if year while the remainder has lieeii
paid in interest.
At the end of twenty years you can retire with the assurance
if an income of practically Sl(K) a month. That's a worth-while"
-state from only $0 a month. And you can insure its maturity,
oven if you die, at a cost of less than (il)c a month.
Smaller or larger monthly savings will
accumulate in proportion. Let us talk
with vou.
