Mr. Raskob plans a big investment corporation to permit the "little fellow" to build an estate on the installment plan ns he now buys an automobile.

Harry Sinclair is enjoying a threemonths vacation guest of the government in a Washington jail. Not for criminal activities in connection with federal oil leases, of which he was acquitted, but for refusing to tell the senate committee all he knew.

Carl Grey, president of the Union Pacific, stopped briefly in La Grande yesterday morning on his annual inspection tour of tho system. We hope he had time to take just one glance at the present station. That's all the inspection needed to convince anyone that it is sadly out of keeping with the rest of the city. Believe it or not we are going to get a new one some day. ' ." . J Asm ;-'. u : r-,-,-1 ;.r rar.rmw. t ' 1 1 Modern life is much different today from what it was a decade ago. Through newspaper advertising the modem housewife knows what she wants, knows by brand name, and orders in that manner because advertising has taught her how she should do it and why it is profitable for her to do so. Imagine ordering from an unknown grocer "some breakfast food," "some bacon," "some coffee," "some bread and so on, as in the olden days before national advertising be came the powerful force it is today.

I f- NAMING THE WALLOWA MOUNTAINS We are indebted to Mr. William Miller for calling our at tention the different name given the Wallowa mountains on diii'erent maps and ofiering an explanation for the practice of the Union Pacific's advertising Staff in saving that Wal 'Iowa lake is located in the Powdei' River mountains in some of its literature and m the Wallowa mountains m otner pamphlets. What is the official name of the mountains that form lhe southern boundary of the Wallowa river valley? State highway maps carry the name "Wallowa Mountains" and some eastern map companies use that name while others show this range as the "Powder River Mountains." Those individuals who write travel literature for the Union Pacific l : i apparently use different maps, and therefore use different : l' i .. ' s. i ii i . i j.u: ni.:n y I names, or peinaps some oi ineiu nave visneu una neuuun ' of the country and use the commonly accepted name while ! the remainder are forced to resort to maps and imaginations. i ; Throughout the Northwest the Wallowa Lake Basin is t ; recognized as being located in the Wallowa mountains. In i i Eastern Oregon few people would know what you were talk .h!ing about if you called them the Powder River mountains, i although they are frequently regarded as a range of the Blue mountains and are sometinles designated in that man ; ner. Regardless of the official name, Wallowa is the name by which they should be known and designated. Most of ij,the waters of the Powder liver come from the Blue moun tains, and the river has very little to connect it with the Wallowa range. Seen originally from the Old Oregon Trail in Baker county where the Powder river flows, the range probably had its first naming on that account. But it is the Wallowa river, Wallowa lake, and the Wallowa valley that .made the range famous for its scenic beauty and popular as "Ran outdoor playground. ' : Common usage has made "Wallowa" the proper name for these majestic peaks, has likewise made the name "Powder River" obsolete. Boidering the valley of which Chief Joseph made his last stand against the whites, there is historical and sentimental reasons for calling this range after the valley and river over which its shadow is cast. Map uni formity is much to l,e desired, alohg with uniformity in ad vertising literature circulated among prospective tourists irt the east. Thei-e is much in a name, under circumstances such as these.
