In yesterday's Raker Democrat-Herald the pastor of the First Lutheran Church had some things to say alxiut the La Crande band: "Superb ! 1 know of no better temi which adequately characterizes the type of band concert we heard Wednesday night at the city park rendered by the municipal band of La Crande. We heaid the concert from the parking lines, and although there were other kinds of amusement in the city drawing heavily on the public, I noted that the park was lined with cars on all three sides, and the benches were filled to capacity. In spite of the cool weather, we were will ing to take the "chill" with the "thrill" the thrill of an excellent band program. That program Wednesday night told me more about La Grande than a ten-page ad." Which constitutes a nice evidence to our municipal band, effective evidence that money for its support is well spent. And most La Crande people have known that for a long time. National F.lcrtPiw don't cim to M'tilf nn) thins.

We tell the visitor from some less fortunate 'area about our wheat production, our cherry and apple or ' chards. our great lumber mills and fine timber, our normal school and beautiful hotels. We discourse at length about our highways and our railroad payroll. We get them in our cars and show these and other material things with par donable pride. And yet we miss many of the assets that are peculiar to this particular valley. Things that have an appeal that no salesman can approach. If you have driven out the Mt. Glen market road where it turns down to Hunter's Lane and glimpse the sweep of the Crande Ronde Valley just as the sun is going down or if you drove out to the landing field last night and watched the full moon rise over those hills toward Union .or if you have started across the valley from Cove just at sunset if you have done any of these things, and many others with like possibilities, you can probably agree lhat we miss something by being a little too practical and giving too much attention to the man-made things of tin; Ciande Ronde valley. Other communities have payrolls and noimal schools and productive lands and invit ing hotels. And they are properly proud of them. Rut where can the entrancing atmsophcric effects of a Grande Ronde valley sunset be equalized? Where can you see a moon rise over blue hills in lhat haze of rose and azure hue? Where can you duplicate this great, round emerald valley with its mountain hairier on every side? And where can you dis cover as perfect a summer day? After all. the land that is ideal in summer has a never ending appeal to those blessed 1 :'",r,y "'!," '"" T",' ' . , . . . . . , think of the w ay I harried him Willi tin? spint n youth.
