Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Matthew 7:10, III. Divorces Clara Bow's Daddy We like to think of ourselves as a great nation of book lovers. And it does seem as if new books were coming out in a perfect flood. Yet a writer in the current issue of World's Work points out that the average American reads only one new book a year. I America publishes only two new titles for every seven published in Russia, six in Germany and four in Japan. Our total annual purchase of new books runs only around 100, 000,000 less than one new book per inhabitant, excluding school text books. Our annual income is $89,000,000,000 unj wo spend less than one-third of one per cent of it on books. All of this is rather surprising. Evidently the booksellers can take" heart. The market is far from saturated. PARKING, AGAIN I . No one would be more energetic in solving La Grande's parking problem than Clint llaynes, chief of police, and we thoroughly agree with him in his opinion, expressed in an interview today, that general co-operation of all citizens of the comniunity is necessary. Wc do not, however, approve the proposal to provide a parking lot for out-of-town shop pers, ff ' (,r,.iunM j.,.,.. t tt i. ..i.i i.i .i ,. ; farmers who drive to La Grande on Saturday can find parking space in abundance if they go out of the business dis trict. They can find space if they are willing to park near Vacant lots on the edges of the business district, where park ing lots might be established. Hut that is exactly what i'armers do not want and it is exactly what merchants do jiot want for them. Tho criticism of the out-of-town shopper, as voiced by one .farmer's wife in Monday's Observer, is" that the shopper's cannot find parking space within a short distance of the Ktores to bo patronized. They want to park close to those stoves, buy, load and get the shopping done without having to Walk two or three blocks to the car on n side street. They believe that a different regulation .of parking, with the cars of business men and their employes kept off the main streets, would allow this. The Observer believes they are right. ; When a rancher's wife comes to town to buy groceries for tho harvest hands on Saturday night she can, by hunting liruund, find a parking space on Washington or Jefferson avenues usually. She may, if fortunate, find a spot on Kim or Kir or Fourth if she is willing to go a block off Adams. But what farmer's wife, worn out with a day of cooking for a harvest crew, is willing to do it? She isn't willing and wc don't blame her. She sees no reason why traffic can't be regulated so that she has a reasonable chance to park in the samo block with the store she wants lo visit. Neither can we. It should not be necessary to have a strict enforcement of the hour-limit, perhaps, but in addition to securing the co operation of business men and employes we think there t'hould be sufficient checking by police to see that parking stalls are not occupied by the half day and day and that they arc not occupied two hours at a stretch during the busiest time Saturday evening while their owners attend theatres' or visit at the expense of hurried shoppers. If that is done, outside visitors will find no fault with parking facili ties and will shop with greater satisfaction which is the ultimate purpose. She no lunger IhCIjii'h How's stepmother.

From these come all of tho physi cal benefits that golf gives. If he comes In from his gamo tired, is unable to eat his evening nicnl and rises from his bed the following morning peplcss, his golf Is doing him harm, and he should uguln consult his physician for a check up.

I sua lly the middtc-ugod busi ness man, In the spring of the year, turns his attention to tho golf linlts or to some other form of physical exercise. Kven if he lias played golf the previous sum mer, usually he has led a seden tary life during the winter, Ver often he Knows nothing of wheth er his heart ami lungs can stand tho stress of the exercise. Almost every day In the Niimmer time the newspapers give an account of some elderly chap dropping dead on the golf links Trout sun stroke or heart failure, to say nothing of tho other men who, after thir ty-six holes of golf, go home haustad. eel a hearty meal and I should take it easy either die of acute dilatation of t not hurry up the grades, nor In- Tou many men will play the nine teenth hole at the end of every nine holes. This peps them up, ot course, for the next nine holes, but the stimulation Is always fol lowed by a long period of depres siou and hi undoubtedly false. Now, what should a man of forty-five or over do before he goes out on the links to play golf? In the first place, he should have a physical inventory made by go ing to a competent medical ad visor ami having his heart and lungs gone over carefully; his urine examined and his blood pres sure taken. Modern business and the worries and strains Incident thereto wears out more hearts and kidneys ..than we have any Idea of. If a mnn over forty-five is phys ically lit, he should start out In the spring and play with men his own ime and In about the same physical condition as himself.
