"Jioth Houses Take llocess to Await Developments" we !
read in a headline telling of the adjournment of congress, j
.Maybe they voted a 2-month recess to await developments i
and maybe they voted it to escape some hot weather in Wash-1
ington, to go fishing, or to lake a trip to Ivurope.
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.

exclusively of the material advantages of this country. We
are all guilty. 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",' '
